Charlotte, N ov, 25.—Tragedy rode with Charlotte firemen short ly before noor. today as they were making a run to bidaleviilo, a ne gro section, in answer to a call. Mrs. Bessie Alexander Patterson, 58, well known throughout the state, was perhaps fatally injured when the small coupe she was driv ing was struck by the speeding truck at the intersection of Gra ham and Trade streets, near tin' heart of the city. Several .irefnen were slightly in jured a*id the fire truck was bad ly damaged, when, after striking the automobile, the truck careened across the sidewalk and crashcitTin to the C. f. ('(aldington automobile building on the corner. Mrs. Patterson is the wife of the late Samuel A. Patterson, of Roa noke Rapids, who was former pres ident of the American Cotton Man ufacturers’ association, and one of the leading business men of the state. She is a sister of Dr. -Charles I, Alexander, prominent dentist of this city. ^ Mrs. Patterson was sa;d to have been driving about the city while y altifig for her son, Francis Pat terson, who was coming in on a train from Providence, R. I. He arrived in the city shortly after the accident and went immediately to the hospital where he identified hfs mother. For some time after. the accident officials were unable to establish her identity, there -being nothing on her person to indicate her name. Mr-. Patterson is a res= lent < f Blowing li'ick. where sro l a- ex tensive property holdings and con However, she has been here for duct's a nri.ve real estu • agency some time and planned to spend the winter with her sister, Mrs. George Hanna, on West Tenth street. After an investigation this af* ternoon Fire Chief Wallace said that the accident was unavoidable. He said the firemcti took the only course open to thorn when the driv er of the truck swerved his ma chine in an effort to miss the auto mobile and crashed into the Cod dington building. “A cod is a funny fish.

Raleigh, Nov. 22.~lf the gov ernment, had last summer estimated the present forecasted l,2t!O,0oO bales of cotton expected this year in North Carolina, anti if the l nit etl States crop had been estimated at 18,3911,000 bales, which now seems probable, congress would have been culled it, special session and the cotton crop reporting work might have been severely criticized. This big crop is not so much dec to increased acreage over hist year as it is to the high yield per acre brought about by favorable cott< u growing and harvesting weather prevailing from Virginia to Cali fornia. Already the ginnings have reached 803,117 bales in North Carolina and almost 13,000,000 bales for the country at large. Instead of taking 1,000,000 bales off the market and reducing the acreage one-fourth next year, i. looks like the reach will need to be greater if the price is to be im proved much during the next sea son. The average yield per acre this year is estimated at 180 pounds of lint which is 20 pounds heavier than last season when such a big crop was made. The North Carolina yield is now estimated at. 300 pounds and is 36 pounds per acre higher than last year, while the acreage is about the same as for the preceding season. Incidentally, this state’s per acre yield is about double that of Texas and i-yimo-i. three times the yield Texas made last year. The condition reported as of No vember 11th was 70 per cent for North Carolina; the per cent pick ed at 75 and the percent ginned rt 05 per cent of the expected crop. The size of the bolls are appreci ably larger than a year ago and the $1.02 average per hundred pounds of seed cotton for picking is about the same as last year’s price, while the price of lint is almost half of that of last season. While a few told snaps have oc curred in this state, the weather in general has been favorable for the harvesting of the lint aral there has been a minimum weather dam age to the lint exposed in the fields. It is probable that quite a consid erable amount of the cotton will not be picked after it becomes dam aged in the fields. Much now re mains unpicked. Roger W. Babson, statistical I expert; Shipping Turkeys. < Lincoln county turkeys will adorn many a Northern banquet table during the Thanksgiving sea son, says the News, One of the largest shipments of turkeys and poultry ever made from Lincoln county, 6,450 pounds to he exact, was made Tuesday of this week. The entire shipment was mostly turkeys with a few chick ens, and placed S1.00I1.5I into the hands of the farmers who made the shipment. The Lincoln county farmers who are shipping turkeys and chickens are not Worried much about the low price of cotton. Cleveland cour ty is also shipping carloads of poultry to Northern markets.
