The Sailor cotton elevator in oper-
alton at L. NJ. Smiths gin is certainly
one of the best inventions of the age.
1t consists of powerful suction fan
connected with large tube running
the length of the gin and leacing out
side the building to the wagon way be-
low. From this tube boxes are arrang.
ed, each being directly over gin. AS
the cotton Is elevated from the wagon
it Is freed from dust and dirt by the
peculiar construction of the elevator,
and Is then dropped into these boxes
and In turn into the gin below. The
seed runs frsm the gins into spiral
hopper and thence dumped into the
farmers wagon in few moments after
he has had his load taken up by the ele-
vator. The cotton fast as it is ginned is
packed into a Thomas steam press and
baled, the whole operation occupying
less than half an hour. Mr.. Smiths
outfit is very complete and many inter-
ested spectators visit it to see the won
derful work 1t performs.
We have the best line of sewing ma
chimes, outside Of Little Rock, In the
State. We are selling them, too. Call
and be convinced.

Last Monday evening citizens liv-
ing In the vacinity of Bakers Creek
met for the purpose OF organizing
fruit growers association. The meet
ing was called to order by Mr.. G. w.
Boles, who explained tho object Of the
meeting. Mr. m. Hamilton was elect
cd president and Mr.. L. Lamar Sec
NJ EarrIo IF .T0hnsnn
county, who was present, was made an
honorary member of the society. Sec
retary Lamar was instructed to open
with box factories and
commission merchants for the purpose
of making arrangements for market
ing the next berry crop to the best in-
terest of the grower. All persons In
terested In fruit growing were cordi-
ally invited to attend the meetings Of
the association. This Is laudable en-
terprise and from the earnestness Of
those present will certainly result in
much good to that community. The
meeting adjourned to meet again on
the second Monday in November at Z
D. m. From this beginning it Is hoped
the interest will spread until it shall
result in fully developing the fruit and
berry growing interest of the entire
county. There are no finer fruit lands
In the state than we have and there is
no reason our people should not enjoy
all the advantages which have given
other sections enviable prominence.
Concerted and we'll directed effort are
all that is necessary and let us hope
these will no longer be lacking.
We can't get $500 for one of our
first-class sewing machines, because
we don't take them to your houses, but
sell yon better machine for $1,000.
