COTTON GINNING.
J have recently got a CONDENSER,
and added to my new Brown Gin, and
am now prepared to gin cotton exactly
hk it ought to be.
The CONDENSER bolts the cotton
and takes out all the dust and dirt and
threby improves the lint, making it
bring a better price.
I find that the cotton this season has
a great many motes in it, and of course
ne can't make as good turnout aajast
year, but I will ,
