Il like a uniform bale OF 24x54, for
| think that the size bale to make, and
il my press was no that size i would
change II at once, no matter what II
cost, for cotton Is more easily handled,
hauled, stored, and my customers like
it much better. IL you can get a uniform
bale OF cotton the round bale process
will go by the board. II the round bale
methods are successful 1t will ruin the
cotton states. This is the way TO look
at it.
You did no ask for an oninion on
the round bale, but / could not help
from saying something, and would like
to say more"

times the hotel was entirely surround
ed by water.
Old beachers declare that the tide
was the highest they ever saw on
Wrightsville beach. The ocean hump
ed itself in grand style, and the tide
came away up under the pavilion at
Ocean View and swept under some of
the cottages, carrying away a few
steps. The water was up to the board
walk in front of the new Ocean View
Hotel. The tide in Wrightsville sound
made the banks channel n all the
hundreds of other channels into one
broad xpans of water from Wrights-
Vile beach to the village of Wrights-
vile on the land side. Not a blade of
| marsh grass was to be seen anywhere.
Several small boats tied to the cot
tage piers at Wrightsville beach were
drifted away. At last accounts no dam
age to any extent had been done, but
this morning will tell the tale. If there
was a strong wind from either east or
southeast, more or less damage will be
inflicted on both beaches.
AT SOUTHPORT.
! At Southport the wind reached a We
locity of forty-six miles an hour. There
was a big tide, but SO far as learned
! there was no damage.
| The Clyde steamer New York, which
cleared for New York yesterday morn
ing, on account of the reports of the
weather bureau, anchored at South
| port and will not put to sea until the
storm is past.
The steamer Southport made her
usual trips up and pack from Southport
| yesterday, but on account Of the wealth
er bureau forecasts she returned to the
city and tied up last night
All the government dredges and YES
sells were also brought up to the city
for safety.
THE PROBABILITY OF DAMAGE.
What damage may be done on both
beaches depends alone on the velocity
and direction Of the wind last night.
| With the unusual high tides, if the
wind is with the tide. there will be
some damage. AT last accounts from
both beaches, however, everything was
holding it's own against wind and wa
ter. The latest information from
Wrightsville beach last night was that
the tide was still high and the wind
very strong.
AS The Messenger goes to press this
morning, the whole sky is overcast
with ugly inky clouds and there is a
high wind, but no gale.
NO DAMAGE BY THE STORM AT
CHARLESTON.
Charleston, S. c., August IA few
| IIllluleS UClOIt D y ClOCh l1lS HOTIllt1S
the wind reached a velocity Of fifty
seven miles here, his being the high
est point attained during the day. So
far as a be learned no damage What
ever has been dOn by the storm here
or in this vicinity. Contrary to predic-
tons, there was not an unusually high
tide, and consequently, the rice fields
have escaped without serious injury.
TO REACH NEW YORK.
1 Washington August 16-Tbo middle
Atlantic states, including New Jersey,
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and
North Carolina, will experience the
effects Of the tropical storm that is
moving northward from the South
Carolina coast where it is now Gen.
trail. Along this portion OF the sea-
board the wind will increase to a
strong northeast gale and will con-
tinue Wednesday, causing high tides
| n dangerous seas. By tomorrow the
effects of the storm will begin to be
felt in New York.

Necessity of >ystemI

Mr.. w. II. Fulghum, Of Georgia,
gives reasons for standard square bale.
81 like the 24x54 bale better than my
old 22x60, for several reasons.
First: | don't think there Is any
more strain on the press, or that II re-
quires any more power.
Second: II is easier 70 head up or
roll over, and is covered with less bag
ging-
Third: We all recognize the neces-
sity Of system in any business, and
what is to the interest OF the compress
men is also to the interest OF the
planter and ginner. IL Is true there are
other methods Of COMPRISING cotton
at the gin. but they are so expensive
the farmer and average ginner cannot
afford It."

some Fact a:G li:are- EGirh " ould
Seem {" sup, ~ the .s.In haiti IL
a MerciIe~. Erust
Correspondent at Yorkville, S. c., to
News and Courier.)
The farmers of York county do not
take kindly 10 the cylindrical cotton
bale, and neither do the ginners as a
rule. In fact there is no probability
that there will be more than one in
stalled in a York county gin house at
the beginning of the season this fall,
and there is little prospect of its being
kept busy. The farmers oppose it be-
cause they are not willing to place
themselves at the mercy of what will,
if schemes materialiZe, prove to be the
most merciless trust ever organized in
the United States. The proposition Of
the representatives Of he round bale
people to pay As cents more per hun
dred pounds for cotton packed in round
bales than square is no inducement to
a farmer who has sufficient intelligence
to make a very simple calculation, be-
cause the difference in the cost and
weight of the wrappings of the square
and round bales will actually make
500 pounds of lint cotton wrapped in
the old standard style net Is cents
more than 500 pounds put up in the
new style, and besides this, practically
all the cotton sold in York county dur
ing the past two seasons was bought
by cotton mills of this and n~eighboring
counties, and the farmers received
about 25 cents per hundred more for it
than could or would have been paid by
exporters.
The farmers and ginners object to
the string that is tied to the round bale
press. 1t is a we'll known fact that
they are not sold to the ginners, but
are installed on the following terms:
$500 to be paid or due when the press
is put in. The ginner is then allowed
to pack 1000 bales, weighing 250
pounds each and for each bale over
that number he is to pay the ownres
of the press a royalty Of so cents. An
ordinary double box square press can
be bought for $3.50, and the farmers
and ginners think the cylindrical press
should be sold outright at about the
same price. The cotton raisers of the
south are heavily burdened now and it
is to be hoped that they will not stick
their heads in the new sugar-coated
moose offered by the round bale people.

Mr.. w. l.. Sampey, Of Alabama,
finds the square bales more uniform
in weight.
81 find bales are more uniform in
weight than the old style variable bales
were, and are more popular with the
farmer, as well as the shipper. The
round bale is not yet introduced here,
and I see no probability OF its getting
in here on their present plans of doing
business"

A LESSON IN COOKING.
How n Hobo Served Up n Dish OF
Ronst Chicken.

How II Hobo Served Up n Dish OF
Roast Chicken.
1.-The first time l ran away from
home I learned trick or two that was
worth the while, said well known
business man. Il started out on several
unauthorized tours of adventure before
I reached years of discretion but the
first is most vividly impressed upon my
memory. Three of Us kids caught
freight train and got some 60 or 10
miles away from home before the first
uightfall Then we didn't know where
to spend the night Several attempts to
quarter ourselves in empty box cars on
the side track of little village only
resulted in our being chased away and
threatened with arrest, so we went to
the outskirts of the place and built
fire on the bank of little creek Here
we made ourselves as comfortable as
nossible and one or two of Us had actu-
allv dozed off for short maps when
regular hobo, good specimen OF the
real article, happened along and wanted
to know if we had anything to eat Of
course we hadn't.
We'll he said, if you fellers Il
ketch a chicken I'll show you a trick
that'll be useful to you.
at didn't take US long to catch the
chicken and bring it back. The veteran
member Of the nomadic fraternity
wrung its neck, jerked off its head
cleaned it and going down to the creek
wadded it up, feathers, feet and all. IN
q big ball of yellow clay. This he rolled
into the fire and scraped the burning
embers up around it. The clay soon
hardened. and we could see it among
the wood Goals gradually becoming a
bright cherry red. When it did so, the
cook rolled it out again, let it cool a
little and then broke it open with
stone. The feathers had stuck to the
baked clay and a clean, inviting chick
en- was ready to be served All the
moisture that in ordinary baking Is lost
had been kept in by the brickllke In
closure, and the morsel that fell to my
lot was the juiciest and sweetest nave
ever eaten. "-Cincinnati Enquirer
