NEWS OF RAY.

Ray. Tex. May 1G.--We certainly
appreciate the sunshine and north
wind this morning, something we
haven't had an opportunity TO do for
a good while.
Some people believe only in early
planting of cotton. We think now
the term should be classified or modi-
fled into early, medium and late. OF
course our state advisors insist on
early planting Just what they mean
is matter of conjecture. The term
is wrongly interpreted by the masses
Of farmers we believe. The
term is theoretical and exceedingly
misleading II is absolutely absurd
to entertain the idea for one moment
that by early planting we can get
ahead of the weevii So go ahead,
farmers, and plant your late crop
Of cotton for the many opinions
there'll be larger acreage of May
cotton tincluding the stateD than
we've had for good many years.
The writer went to see Howard and
Ray play baseball the other day.
They all went home with the consol-
ing thought that they got one score
a piece. South Fork and Ray played
yesterday evening but on account of
Jim Johnson OF the Ray team getting
hit in the eye with the ball the game
was 2 to in favor of South Fork.

which had been exposed to the wealth

picked $50 pounds of damaged cotton
from one bale. This should be a
strong argument for warehouses.
