1t is tough on man who held cotton
up to the middle of June and then
turned it loose just in time to escape
the benefit OF the rise. We believe
cotton will be worth more than 10

comes in. Those who are holding cot
ton may tighten their grips.
The farmers that were in town last
Saturday had pulled up several holes
in their countenances and are now
beaming with smiles over the present
condition OF their fast growing crops.
Even Jim Barrett says he has quit hsh-
ing for pike in his cotton rows. There
is certainly a big difference in the
feelings since the crops have been
worked out.
