The International Cotton Ex-
change says, Cotton standing in
compressed state sixty days is in
jured more than one grade" There
are no half grades; the difference
between grades is from ] to 4 of a
cent on the pound. The Exchange
also says, "The tare for bagging anu
ties, to prevent complication, should
be deducted at the first purchase of
the cotton where grown, instead of
at the last purchase in Liverpool
Who has ever seen a cotton produ

DR.. J. L. Lawton, Inspector of
Fertilizers: II am firmly convinced
that this little machine will revolu
tionize the South"
Hon. I. J. Henderson. Commits
sioner of Agriculture: II have fig
ured on the thing from every posi-
bic standpoint and cannot see pos
sibly why single Clement Attach

$4,000 year"
Mr.. Fred Bell: II am astonished
at the simplicity and efficiency of
the Clement mill l consider it the
greatest change and progress that
the South has ever introduced"
Gen. J. B. Gordon: 81 expect to
see it effect a revolution in time. |

work So directly, that it will com
mend itself strongly to farmers, who
are naturally afraid of complicated
machinery. | find the mill all | ex-
pected, and am more than pleased
with it."
H. L. Kimball, President Atlanta
Cotton Factory, one of the largest
mills in the South: II am fully sat
isfied from examination that the
Clement Attachment will do all that
is claimed for it. 1t is just what |
expected it would be. | think it is
destined to work great good for the
South"
1t is to be hoped that the above
frankly expressed opinions of disin-
terested, distinguished gentlemen
will induce the doubling Thomases
to visit the mill at Windsor, N. c.,
Westminster, S. c., or Senoia, Ga,
where, after a thorough examina-
ton, they will be better prepared to
express an opinion as to its merits,
performance, etc, than are the many
who do so without having seen it.
There are 20 or Is new process"
mills now being erected, some in
