Williams, one of the first business men of the Cape 'Fear sec tion, has an article in the Fayetteville Observer urging cotton ginners to make a uniform bale of cotton 24x54 inches. He says: "The round bale people are doing their uttermost to establish the round bale, and if successful in their efforts, the cotton farmer will be completely in their hands. The certainty of a royalty to them of $L00 per bale and the naming of the price to be paid for cotton are what they are aiming at" That is it exactly. John E. Searles would never have left the Sugar Trust and taken hold of the round bale if he did not expect to coin millions by cor nering the market The Southern farmers are not averse to improve ment in baling cotton. They would welcome all improvements, but they will not put their neck in the halter of the round bale trust The East Carolina Real Estate Agency has excellent facilities for selling farms and timbered lands. It advertises all property and makes only a nominal charge unless a sale is made. For terms etc, address R. G. Grady & Co., Burgaw, N. O. r ng ENTERTAINING THE ORPHANS.
