YOURS ANXIOUS TO PLEASE w. H. DAVIS & co.
THE ROUNDLAP BALE.
AN IRREsIsTTwLE DEMAND EXISTS
FOR COTTON PACKED IN TIE
NEW WAY.

American Cott0n Company and Its
Campaign. Profits la the New
Method eff Baling.
The south is still conservative, but it
is no longer "slow." 1t is sharing in the
wonderful prosperity of the Test of the
country. 1t is passing through revolu-
ton that is giving ne y life and vigor TO
every branch of the cotton industry, ex-
cepting those members which have been
hurtful, instead of helpful, to its pros
perity. 1t is simplifying, strengthening
and using a new economy in the packing
and handling of the staple. The Round
lap method of baling cotton is growing
rapidly 10 favor, adding to the prosperi-
ty of the planter, whether he raises two
bales or two hundred, and giving the gin
owner an opportunity to double the
earning capacity of his plant without in
creasing his Investment.
The opposition to the Roundup bale
on the part of the compress owners and
the middlemen, whose business has been
a burdensome tax on the cotton planter,
has not prevented the steady introduce
ton OF the machinery for making the
Roundlap bale, and the satisfaction OF
the farmer, the glnner and the mill own
err. The attacks on the American Cotton
Company. owners of the Roundup bal
ing machine have been bitter and un-
scrupulous. They have been accused of
attempting to gain a monopoly, OF using
"trust" methods, but gradually the facts
arc gaining Roadway that the American
Cotton Company is only one of three
concerns engaged in making round bal
ing presses. and that 1t can not enjoy
any monopoly.
Then, again, objection is made &c the
policy adopted by the company OF leas-
ing lis machinery to the gin owner In
stead of selling it. The lease is, in effect,
a royalty, the amount of the rent"l being
based ON the amount IF cotton baled In
the press. thus making the profit and
prosperity of the company depend on
that of the ginner. Under the leasing
system. it is found, the ginner runs no
risk. ties up none of his capital, and
makes as much profit out Of the leased
attachment to his ginnery as from the
ginnery itself, in hicn his capital is in
vested.
The advantages Of the Roundup bale
over the old style bale are so many and
SO great that its general introduction
will be rapid, and the greatest sharers in
The profits will be those who perceive
earliest the tendency of the times and
nrepare themselves to supply the new
demand. The greater simplicity of the
bale. saving ties and bagging, i IS greater
secnritv from fire and consequent lower
insurance. its saving in shipping and its
rapidly growing popularity in the mills
at home and abroad, all make up situa-
tion that creates a demand for the
Roundlap bale which must be supplied.

faith is certainly one of the lead

founded at Khartoum, has an in
stitute where English and Arabic
will be taught, and there the
methods and creed of Islam will
be respected. This is the gen
eral English policy. In Sierra

Mohammedan faith is ma king

Moslem knows no caste, and has
wonderful attraction for negroes

As Ire Winds Blow.

Yesterday, and on two previ-
GUS days, the yacht owners and
lovers in New York were pray
ing for favorable winds. Come
to think Of it, we are all about as
the wind for each one of us blows.
We look upon two babies in their
cradles and do not know that one
will attain to glory and the other
will be lost on the shores of
shame, because we do not know
what winds and currents are go
ing to drive them on. The sun
beams pick up the waters of trop-
ical seas, load them upon the
clouds and leave the precious
freight for the winds to watt
landward. Some are blown
north or south to where colder
currents are encountered, the
moisture is precipitated back into
the sea, and the labor is lost.
Others are driven over the far-off
North lands, and the moisture falls
upon the frozen earth and is there
converted into ice. Ages roll on
and every passing cloud adds to
the deposit, until the agents are
set to work to make a glacier
flow. Ages more are required
for the mass to grind its way
back. to the sea, and though the
soil is made for the men ofssome
