. MUCH COTTON SOLD ON
LOCAL .MARKET ALREADY
Between 4500 and lfttO Bales Sold
Here This Year As Against About
850 Bates Last Year.
The cotton crop in Cabarrus county'
this year may not be as lasge as it
I wasdast year but it is coming to the
' market faster, according to figures in
the office of W. B. Boger, county cot
ton weigher.
The figures show that so far this
year between 1!W0 and 1000 bales
have been sold on the local market,
whereas up to the same time last
year not more than 350 hales had
been sold here.
It was pointed out by Mr. Iloggr,
however, that no"' more than one
fourth of the cotton sold hero so
fur this year was raised in Cabarrus
county. The bulk of the cotton is
coining from Stanly. Anson and Mont
•gomery counties. Cabarrus farmers
are either slow in getting their cotton
picked and ginned or they want to
wait to see wliat the market will do
later.
Some very fine cotton lias been
brought here from Stauly county, it
was reported at the office of Mr. Bo
ger. the staple from the adjoining
county being longer and perhaps a
little stronger than the staple from
Cabarrus cotton.
In this connection, however, it was
pointed out that the staple of Ca
barrus cotton this year is much
stronger than 1 the staple from last
year's crop. This is due to the dry
season, cotton buyers here point out,
as dry season cotton is always strong
er than wet season cotton although
the staple may be longer hi a wet
year.
It was stated nt the cotton plat
form that up to the present time last
year one big cotton buyer here had
purchased less than 00 bales and this
year he has purchased about 700 bales,
showing the difference in the way the
two crops were marketed.
It will not be possible to get accu
rate ginning figures until G. \V. Lee,
county cotton census statistician,
makes his report. It is estimated by
cotton buyers and other- who have
made inquiry, that gimiings this year
ill the county are far ahead of last
year, although the work has been held
back somewhat,due to the fact that
a number of gins have operated on
curtailed schedules due to power short
age.
No one seems to know just wlurt
the total cotton yield'of the county
will bo although many persons are of
the opinion that it will equal last
year's. If is reported from good
source that more acreage was devoted
to cotton this year than last and this
may offset any difference in the acre
yield.
Cotton is bringing 23 cents a pound
on the local market now.

Rev. C. K. Turner, from Kauuupo
j lis. was with ns again Thursday'Digi t
and he and Mr. Fry sang a duet en
titled ‘There Is No Friend Like
Jesus." which was enjoyed by every
one. Mr. Fry sung a solo "What Will
[ Yon Do With JesusV" There was a
> large congregation to greet the prenob
| er and singers. Mr. Payne preached
) a very intereesting sermon on the
( Prodigal .Son, as found in the 15th
j chapter of Luke. He -aid in part:
) There is no picture to my mind that
| brings so vividly the great love of
! God the Father.
I First, we will notice the going away.
J I used to think that the prodigal son
| was a very low type of humanity, but
I of late 1 have had a different fee'htg
t about the prodigal son. This boy's
i father was rich. a£l I presume was n
| good business man so I don't think
| that he would have given half of his
I living to a trifling boy. Therefore I
I believe lie was a very good boy wlien
; lie left home. He went over the pro
test of a loving father. He went jnto
• a strange land, he wi'nt into a far
country. He went off in style, and 1
i believe he would have turned back
| the morning after his first night from
i home but he probably said if I go back
1 now I will be the laughing stock of
| the town.
i Second: Look with me at his re
-1 turn home. There was quite a differ
, cnee £n his coming back, and his go
i ing away. He came buck broke. lie i
| came back half clothed. He caui%|
i back alone, no servants, no horses, I
i no chariots. But lie came buck In i
I his right mind. The devil almost
i ruins some |>eople before they will
' quit following hint Listen! He
i fotind a waiting father, he found an
i open door. He found a father with
J a heart of love, witling to forgive, and
, envious to relieve his wants and give
i him a home with a father's love.
| Service tonight at 7:30. This js
i your last chance to hear Mr. Fry sing
| as he will leave after toniglq for For.
i eat City to help in a meeting there,
i Come and bring your friends.

BUSINESS WITH TEXTILE
PLANTS HERE IMPROVED
l Orders Are Being Received for Goods
That Mean Normal Running Honm
For Many Local Mills,
Improvement in the textile indus
try, long promised and long argiv-i
' ipg, seerfjq a reality now, at least
for a number of local mills, and it'
is stated by a reliable source that
local • plants would be running on
normal schedules were it not for the:
curtailed power program made neces
sary by the summer drought.
The mills here are forced to stand
from Thursday noon until Saturday
noon and as Saturday afternoon is
always a holiday for the mills the
plants have been closed from Thurs
day noon until Monday morning.
When the curtailed program first be
came effective local mills as a whole
rather welcomed the lay-off for ap
parently there were plenty of goods
on the market and prices were not as
high as they should have been.
Apparently there is demand for!
goods now and at prices which mean
a profit to the mills. This is a
condition long.awaited and it is said
that some Concord plants are unable
to fill all of their orders because they;
can opetate -only part of the week.
Heretofore, it was reported by one'
man. night shifts have been working
until 5 :80 a. m., but during the past
week they were asked to stay on the!
job until 7 a. m.. when the day shifts
come on.
It is also reported that one local
plant may ask its May men to work.
Saturday afternoons and its night
men to work from 6 p. m. to midnight,
on Saturdays. This same plant. it!
is also reported, will ask its night
shifts to begin work at 12:05 o'clock
Monday morning.
When the short power program was
first started another mill In the city
made no effort to extend its working
hours by operating at night, but such
a program is in operation now and:
the day men work until II o'clock each
night.
The Southern Power Co., which:
furnishes power "ter the local plants,
was forced to curtail its program';
when the drought became acute ill
the western part of the state and
in other sections where the company
has generating plants. , It is not
known when the company will be able
to offer a normal schedule again for
While there lias been some rain in the:

said the fall has n6t been anything
like enough to bring water condition's
to normalcy.
TOURIST CAMP BEING I
TALKED FOR CONCORD
Lack of Accommodations Is Causing:
City to Ixise Money, Declares Jlr.
Blanks.
The fact that there is now' no
tourist camp in Concord to accommo
date the Jioards us motorists which
pass through the city Florida bound
is flic subject of much concern to
many people interested in the city's
welfare.
It was pointed out by Ylr. Blanks,
V secretary, at the Kiwanls Club
luncheon today that the city is losing
niondy which would be flowing iuto
its coffers if there were a* camp here
in- which motorists might rest after
a day's travel. The situation is one
that demands immediate attention, he
asserted.
Mm Blanks also brought the same
idea to the Rotary Club at its regular
weekly meeting Wednesday at the Y.
M. C. A. and it is expected that some
Scfloii will be taken by this organiza
tion at once to secure a suitable
. camping ground. The. Kiwanis also
plan to take up the matter at once.
Camps are now being successfully
maintained in other cities and there
is no reason whoy Concord should
not have one. said Jlr. Blanks. Tour
ist traffic means quick money and un
der the present conditions! the money
is going to_oflier towns and cities.
A eampAvas maintained in Concord
for some time in the rear of the
Y. JI. C. A. but, owing to complaints,
it was discontinued, j
