Manning cotton market is attracting
the attention of people far and near,
and if our buyers keep up the pace the
shipments for this point will be doubl-
ed this season. On last Saturday the
streets. at times were blocked with the
wagons loaded with cotton and the
ginnery worked over time away IN TO the
night. Yes, this market up to date has
not been eNcelled by any other market
in this section of the State, often paying
of a cent pound more than Charles
ton quotations. We find q great deal
more pleasure in making this report
than where we used to have to report
to our readers that Manning was not
giving our farmers full compensation
for their cotton, it is q cause for re-
ioicino that we can boast of now hav-
inc one OF the best markets in the
State.

She will be welcomed in Manning. not
only on account OF her noble Christian
character. but also because she is the

". |. Herbert, so well known and so
much loved in Manning, and q sister
OF Rev. c.. C. Herbert, pastor OF the
Sautee Circuit But more than all else
aside from her own worth will be the
fact that she is the daughter OF that
Grand old man. the late Rev. I. G. Her
bert. who was known and loved from the
mountains TO the sea. Give her the
right-of-way to the homes and hearts
of the people of Manning.
