COTTON TO BE CHEAPER.
Thinks Next Crop VIII BE Down to
Eight Cents.

The Barnwell People says it look!
like the next cotton crop may bring
in the neighborhood OF eight cent.
| pound. Why
!. Because the sales OF horses and
mules in tae south during the pas,
four months have been Is per cent
greater than for tie same period OF
last year. and a corresponding in
crease IN acreage is counted on.
?. Because Tecord-breakir sal&s
OF fertilizers are being made. Ship
meats from Charleston TO the inter
ior OF the state last week averaged
3'5 carloads day. From the fac
tories at Savannah. Augusta. Co!uul-
bia and the numerous oil mills other
large quantities were shipped By
trains and handled on wagons.
3. Because the greed Of the cotton
mill lords grow. They want more
profit. They mean to get profit. They
mean 10 get even with and ahead OF
the farmers for having had to pay
II cents for cotton this year. By
September lst they will be organ
lied as one big strong force. while
the farmers are single and scat
tered.

Forty years ago II anyone had an

When Alexander Graham Bell told
the people he had invented the wire
telephone. he was called fool; and
when he exhibited the telephone. 1t
was derided as useless toy.
Many stories are now related how
infuention and wealthy men refused
to listen to Professor Bell. much less
inrese money in developing the in
Yention. and thereby missed securing
millions OF dollars.
Twenty years after the wire tel
ephone came into use the electricians
began 10 dream about sending mes
sages without the aid OF wire con-
nectioas. Many worked on the pro-
b!cm. Then came MaTconi with the
wireless telegraph. Marccni tried
TO interest people Of means in his
own country. Italy. with his inven-
ton. The fifteen year old boy was
looked upon by his people as little
better than a lunitic He went to
France No one would listen TO him
In England fanciers laughed a;
him. The engineers OF the British
government. however. looked into his
plans. and Narconi was given small
pension TO develop his invention To-
day the wireless telegraph is used
by every government in the world.
Marconi's invention started other
electricians to thinking and expert
menting Among them was a. Fred
crack Collins, a young electrician OF
Philadelphia II one could transmit,
messages by telegraph without wires,
why not talk through space with q
wireless telephone? Young Collins
got busy He studied and continued

less telephone. and secured the basis
patents on the invention.
The Collins wireless telephone may
be said TO com bine the principles Of
the Bell wire telephone and Marconi
wireless telegraph. a remarkable
thing about it IS that the voice comes
more distinct through the wirelss
telephone than through the ordinary
Bell telephone The voice impulses
are carried by weves Of the mole
cules Of ether and are reproduced
by the mechanism OF the receiver
