WOOD KING SMILES As
COTTON SCARS.
Columbus Buyer Tries To Secure
Kings Cotton, but He Is Too
Busy with Another Crop
To Bother About
Selling.

Columbus, Ca, June 12-(special.)--
There is only one farmer in this whole
section of Georgia and Alabama who has
any cotton to speak of to sell. He is Wood
k-ng, of Cusseta, Ga, a prominent farm
er of Chattahoochee county and he has
something like 125 bales stored away in
Gh houses and outhouses on his place
So far as known, this is the only lot Of
unsold cotton in this territory. with the
exception Of a small lot Of % bales owned
by a Russell county farmer which Is be-
ing held in q Columbus warehouse until
the price of the staple touches u 1-2 cents.
Recently a Columbus cotton buyer went
down 10 see Mr.. King at Cusseta to
Sc if he could not buy the cotton. Mr
King said that his hands were busy then
and it would take several days TO collect
and ship the cotton and he preferred not
to lose the time. ii is believed that by
holding the cotton until his crop is laid
EY he can get fully one cent more for
it, MI King is not in 4 hurry To sell his
&C tton IS q rule. He kept Il lot of several
hundred bales seven years III Il Columbus
warehouse selling it during the past set
son at 10 cents. Reccntly he sold another
large lot at II cents.
There are only 80 bales of salabe cot
tor in the Columbus warehouses. A ware
houseman said today that ne believed Il
lot of nice cotton would command II
cents here, as several of the local mills
are short IN their supply of raw material.
Receipts of the local warehouses this sea-
son to date have been 6l.ooo bales, which
Is several thousand bales more than the
total receipts last year. This does not
include compress receipts, which are
something like 1908 bales
