LONGER STAPLE
COTTON BEING
GROWN IN STATE
Records So Far Show N. C.
Far Ahead of Famed
North Georgia Crop
According to a report issued by the
United States Department of Agricul
ture. bureau of agricultural economics,
Washington, I). C. t under date of Oc
tober 4th, and based on 213,507 bales
of cotton ginned up to that time in
the State of Georgia, the Georgia cot
ton was running 67.09 per cent 7-S
inch staple; 27.14 per cent 15-16; and
5.58 per cent 1 inch and bettes staple.
The records of the North Carolina
Cotton Growers Cooperative Associa
tion up to that date make quite an
interesting comparison: 31 per cent
of their receipts were running 7-8 inch;
36 per cent 15*16 nich; 20 per cent 1
inch: and 13 per cent better than 1
inch.
These comparisons make quite an in
teresting study in cotton production.
It is quite well known in the cotton
trade that only a few years North
Georgia cotton was known far and
wide for its superior staple; in fact,
there was so much demand for North
Georgia cotton that it has been said
that while they produced only one-half
million bates of north Georgia cotton,
the trade sold annually two and one
half. million bales. But we hear very
little of North Georgia cotton now;
their reputation has waned.
Five years ago North I arolina was
producing, a very inferior grade of cot
ton, and in some sections they are still
'growing extremely short varieties—
just cotton. But the North ''Carolina
Cotton Grower? Cooperative Associa
tion soon learned that we had a valu
able market right at our doors with
our own Carolina mills for a better
grade of cotton than was being grown
in this State, and they began fo ham
mer it into their members that the way
to get a Ifetter price was to grow a
I letter product and market it in such a
way as to get the premiums' that a
better product was netitled to. The
records of the association show htat
the membership has been increasing
the leugth of staple year by year as
evidenced by the above table of fig-1
ures.

LOCAL TASTES AND PREFERENCE
GIVEN CONSIDERATION FIRST
It was made just for Williamston
expressly to suit the Williamston taste.
The first" good bread, baked in this
cifV was by a Williamston man—and
he had in .his very blood the' right in
stinct for local*tastes and . preference^.
The loaf' that he gave to the house
wives of this city wjfs so, like their
own honie-thadu bread that their own
husbands couldn't tell the difference.
That's why Sally Ann has always
been the first choice of \\ illiamston's
particular housewives. I hey 'feel that
they know this lite,id.
