MODERATE SHOWERS
NEEDED IN CHILTON

Mountain Creek. August 13.--(SpeciaI)
Rain is needed in this section now. Not
that crops are suffering to an alarming

undisputable fact. Cotton has been up
TO this time doing fine, and now only
moderate showers are really needed to in
sue the abundant yield that has been
anticipated by growers generally.
