AN ENTERPRISE THAT is NEEDED
Planters Here Want Suitable Gin
Erected.

The enterprising citizen, either in
Americas or in the country near by,
who will erect cotton gin for hand
ling long staple cotton will supply a
need very greatly felt by scores of
farmers in this section. This year
there are thousands of acres planted in
Florodora, or long staple cotton, and
even this large acreage will be increas-
ed another season. It is said that the
cotton ginneries now in operation in
the county are not entirely suited to
the ginning of long staple cotton,
although it is being done, and many
farmers here would be glad to see the
installation of gin better adapted TO
the handling of this grade of cotton.
They maintain that better sample and
even better price would accrue to
them therefrom.
