Cotton Prospect In Union.
(From Monroe Enquirer,)
Will Funderburk, a good cotton
farmer, says that Union County has
a fine opportunity to produce a good
cotton crop this year. He is of the
opinion that farmers generally had
1 ’ ,K;v cent of their cotton up and
growing bet ore the rains set in last
ween and that by the 15th of the
present month neatly all had good
stands.
Noah may have organized the first
stock company, but one thing sure,
he never tried to float alone.—Judge.
It s not uncommon for a man to tell
a girl he would wait a million year?
ior her, but he never does.
- PREVENT FIRES
Accumulations of rubbish end inflammable scraps
always are dangerous, since they supply fuel for the
chance spark or flame.
At least 75 per cent of the present annual fire loss is
preventable and, therefore, can be avoided. Certainly
there is no excuse for anyone to jeopardize their lives
and property by permitln • the acc umulatoin of rubbish,
old papers, rags, etc.
Make the Clean Up and Paint Up campaign a fire
prevention campaign. Clean out your attic, cellar and
.closets, and keep them clean.
