the round bale, that is begin
ming TO attract so much atten-
ton among COTTON men and
farmers. He went there pref
udiced against it, but his pref
udice was removed.
II believe it is a good thing"
he said, in talking of it to a re-
porte. Isaw the cotton ginned,
rolled together and wrapped in
ordinary bagging.
THE bale was so completely
covered by the bagging that
not a particle of dust could get
in it. The bale was rolled ont
and five gallons of oil poured
or it, a match applied, and it
burned about twelve minutes
and went out. The bale was
absolutely uninjured, or at any
rate only damaged = few
pounds.
"One beauty of these bales is
that you can put 160 of them in
a car, and they knock out com
press men and middle men.
The bale, after they tried to
burn it up, was unrolled, and
it unrolled without flaw OF
break in it, thus demonstrating
its advantage over the old bale.
In my opinion it IS a bless
ing to the farmer and has come
to stay.n
