The Marietta journal. [volume] (Marietta, Ga.) 1866-1909, 1885-09-24

Our cotton buyers in Marietta this year
are fully alive to the importance of buying
all the cotton that may come to this mark
ct. They have made arrangements that
will enable them to pay little better price
than any place in North Georgia. They
have the cash to pay for it, and our farmers
will do well TO look to their interest by
bringing their cotton here The Marietta
cotton buyers last year paid more for the
aeecy staple than Atlanta and they will do
it again this year. Our merchants too have
bought the biggest and best stock of goods
that they have ever had, and can aceommo-
date the public to anything they want
Come to Marietta to do your selling and
buying, and you will be treated right and get
the best bargains to be had.

person of Mr. George Kinnett, who is 81
years old He was never sick in his life
never took a dose of medicine in his lite

all his life; is still active and able to walk
where he wishes; and has been member of
the Methodist Church IS years When he
was 81 years of age he picked / | pounds of
cotton. His father lived to be l05 years old

We are always working to build up Ma
rietta, induce trade to our merchants and to
do any kindly act that will help others
along 1t is nothing but fair and right for
our citizens to give us their job printing and
advertising, and not send their patronage to
other towns to people who do not spend
cent in Marietta or do anything to advance
the towns prosperity. Ifyou want paper
in your town you must give it your support.
Printers cannot live on deadhead work.
They must have paying patronage

The Georgia State Fair opens at Macon,
October 9th, and it promises to be of uni
versal interest. 1t is now being extensively
advertised and worked up. The arrange
ments have all been perfected and it is hoped
the people of Cobb and adjacent counties
will place their blooded cattle and field crops
on exhibition there. The premiums offered
will induce lively competition and Cobb can
excel if our citizens will do their best.
Make your arrangements at once to contri-
butte to the success of the State fair this
year
