August Ginning Not
So Rare Says Lutz
In a recent issue of The Star there
appeared a news Item that Robert
Blggerstaff ginned a bale of cotton
for Reuben McBrayer In August
1M1, Juat fifty years ago. August gin
ning turns out that it is not so rare
as the news Item would lead one to
believe, says E. H. I*uts of Fallston.
Mr. Luts has been a glnner at Falls
ton for many years. He is not old
enough to go back a half century,
but distinctly remembers that in
192# he ginned five bales at his
Fallston gin the last of August that
year. Cotton brought 25 cents per
pound then.
Says Cotton Crop
Was Cheaply Made
“I expect money to be more plen
tiful and the farmers to come out
better than they anticipate thtr
fall,” said an observant citizen yes
terday. "This cotton crop has been
cheaply made. It cost at least 40
per cent less to make than last year's
crop. An actual check-up shows that
acreage was reduced 17 per cent and
fertiliser 28 per cent, ao if we make
as much cotton on 17 per cent leas
acreage and 25 percent less fertili
ser, the crop has been made for 40
percent less cost than last year.
Then we have cheaper labor to
throw In for good measure. And with
a bountiful harvest of food lor man
and feed for beast, these will be no
money outlay for these. Don't you
think it much better to have empty
pockets then empty stomachs. Sup
pose we had had a drought, a flood
or a tornado and had full pockets
but empty stomachs” the business
man concluded.
What Will The Price
Of Ginning Be Now?
Farmers are asking the question,
what will the ginners charge this
fall? Last year there was an effort
on the part of ginners to establish
a standard price the county over,
but this did not hold long. A half
doxen prices prevailed In different
sections'. One glnner says his price
will be *250. another says $3 per
bale. Bagging and ties cost about 75c
per set, so this leaves the glnner
about *1 75 for his work. Some gin
ners say they cannot operate for
less:. Mast of them will carry both
Jute and cotton bagging and wrap
the farmer’s cotton in tils choice.
The cotton bagging, however, costs
about 18c per unit more than jute.
It is learned.
Ginners Have Cotton
And Jute Bagging
Toy B. Webb woh operates a gin
a few miles wtat of Shelby is said
to be the first glnner to have cot
ton bagging in which to wrap cotton
in this fall. It la learned that all
ginners will have both jute, but
some ginners will make no differ
ence in the price. Jute , bagging
weighs about 11 pounds per unit,
cotton bagging about 4 1-2^ pounds.
Ties weigh * lbs. But what Wbout the
tare? With eotton bagging 7 pounds
lighter than Jute, will the buyers
allow the oM standard tare? Many
mills say they will, but one ginner
says Anderson and Clayton, one of
the largest cotton buying firms in
the South has hot expressed them
selves on this important question.
Spind&le Merchant
To Pay A Premium
Spindale, Sept. 3 —J. A. McCraw.
merchant of this place who does a
large time business among farmers.
says he will accept cotton on ac
count, allowing one and a half cents j
above the market on the day the
cotton Is offered. In this way he
hopes to get his time accounts sta
lled up and aid the farmer in meet- j
lng all obligations so his credit will j
be in good standing for next year.'
That Watermelon
Juice Controversy
Webster Wlilsnant of Cleveland
,county writes The Star: ' You car
ried a notice that iule Brackett had
made syrup from the juice of the
watermelon. Then Mr. Wheeler of
Hickory goes back 30 to 36 years
when a relative of his in South Car
olina made some of the same kind
of syrup. I can go Mr. Wheeler one
better. In Rutherford county there j
lived Albert Melton, a near neigh
bor of my father in the Golden Val
ley section. He made syrup out of
Watermelon juice ns an experiment
and I ate some of it and liked it.
My wife made some about that, time, i
40 years ago.'*
Hoover Overlooks
Wine, Beer Query
Ohio Congressman Asks President
If He Would Sign Bill

Washington.—Representative Ar
thur P. Lamneck. new Ohio Demo

Take the question of first-cost — and 70*1 learn that the Chev

Investigate economy — and you discover the Chevrolet Si* to
he more economical to operate than any other truck, regard
less of the number of cylinders.
investigate stamina, reliability and upkeep costs —and you
find that Chevrolet owners frequently report such records as
“30,000 miles without opening the engine"—“50,000 miles and
still dependable” —“ten months with practically no expense
for repairs."
As for speed and power, Chevrolet gives you a »ii-cylinder 50
horsepower engine—25% more powerful than the engine in
any other truck in the lowest price field. And as for capacity,
Chevrolet’s longer wheelbase, sturdy frame and long springs
permit the mounting of extra-large Chevrolet-built bodies.
Before you buy a truck for any purpose, find out about six
cylinder Chevrolet trucks. Your Chevrolet dealer has the facts.
