The South Worth Something
Tic Uncle Sam.

In 'he fiscal year just closed com
pleteG statistics of our foreign COM
merce show that cotton is the leading
article Of export. The value OF Il e
cotton exported last year reached the
vast sum of s4l.. 900, 900. Ii To this
be added The value of exports Of cot
tunSeed cake. meal and Oil (S55, 700.
OOO) we find that the cotton crop Of
the south furnished S473, 100, 900 OF
the exports Of the United States.
This is more than the combined
value OF the wheat. corn, flour. lard.
meat, cattle, coal and oil exported.
But for the cotton Of the South the
balance of the trade would be against
the United States, and this country
would be depleted Of its gold. The
South, then, is worth something to
Uncle Sam and cotton is king Of ex-

On last Sunday night September
u. 1909 the death angel visited the
home OF of Mr.. and Mrs. B. f. Powell
and took away their darling little
baby boy, Spencer He was three years
and two months old, and was a bright
aud promising child. Dear parents, we
know this world see ans cold and empty
without the presence OF that dear one,
but we know that all things work to-
gether for good to them that love
God.
The remains were laid to rest at
Gore Springs cemetery on Monday
evening. The bereaved family have
our heartfelt sympathy.
The little crib is empty now,
The little clothes laid by:
A mothers hope, Il fathers JOY
In deaths cold arm doth lie.
Go little pilgrim to thy home,
On yOnder bliSS:ul shore,
We miss thee here but SOON will come,
Where thou hast gone before.
