Imoritabic, hut thtre i* every tea win
to believe that by the time the Dunn
District crap i» ic fall ornament to
market spot cotton trill be telling for
close to twenty cents.
And twenty cents, friends, it not
a bad price when we consider the
m cost of tht> year's product in this
locality. Wo hate been bleared above
most other communities in the Belt.
Whore drought and pestilental bugs
have practically ruined the crop In
very wide areas, the min and sunshine
cave coma to ua and bugs have been
fear. Certainly wc have nst quite in
huge a crop as we had last year; bat,
dM we pint, to have?
All we lined now is to «it steady ia

We thank you.
WE JOIN THE ANVIL HITTERS
ft seem* a popular sort of thing u
do these days—lambait Mr. Watts foi
the little favor in tho shape of a few
tboasands of dollars ef potential stall
funds handed to hi* friend* of the to
h.ieco combine. Not that wa believe
the tobacco companies did not de
ceive the rebate. Oh, no indeed. Rv
e-ybody who had anything at all and
hopt It finds himself poorer than if
b> had soU months ago- -except those
uho bought lb* Southern farmers’
filtos at low tide.
What we have to sny about Mr.
Watts’ set I or is not in reproach of
the rebating. He should have remem
bered that those who own the tobacco
alee own much of tho eetton bought
U the South siren last fall. It look*
now a* If that cotton ;* going to be
worth c»nride ably more than Uwy
pa d for It la lowering the tobacco
Muramk why should he not also
!dtrcaro the cotton assessment.
Is making rebates. Mr. WalU
might alto luok over the inflated land
values and see If he could not hand
back to North Carolina farm owssri
:iwt portion of their tanas ha find* eg
revive. That, we believe, la hi* reas
