WORK RESUMED
ON PLANTATIONS
ABOUT AMERICUS
AFTER PERIOD OF CESSATION
Much Injury is Done Cotton
Recently

NO one rejoices more at the prospec.s
of fair weather this week than do the
farmers of Sumter who, for more than
a week have been helpless witnesses
to the ruin wrought in their cotton
fields by the incessant rains which not
only prevented picking the cotton but
inflicted very considerable injury up-
on the plant otherwise.
The very light receipts at war;
houses here for week showed the eff
feet of continued rains, the entira
receipts for last week being no mo e
than should have been expected upon
one busy Saturday, or less than 1900
bales for the six days.
In addition to bringing crop picking
to standstill, the wet weather has
caused very considerable rotting of
grown bolls upon the stalk. This loss
was very general over the county. CO.
tonseed in open bolls sprouted dur
irg the rain period, and loss in that di-
rection was also sustained.
There is great deal of open cotton
in the fields of Sumter, and with clear,
open weather during the next tw1
weeks the farmers will make heavv
inroads upon it. The recent rains have
fully assured the cane, potato, hay and
other small crops, and farmers woul1
be glad to have not a drop of rain Ia
two weeks.
Americus' cotton receipts for the
current week should be 1000 bales
easily, if conditions remain favoras

RODDENBERY ILL
CANNOT RECOVER
Member Of Georgia DelGga-
tiOn Stricken

Thomasville Sept. 22.-Congressman
S. Anderson Roddenbery, of the Sec
ond district of Georgia, is expected to
live but a few days at the most, ac-
cording to reports from his home to-
day. He has been in Thomasville for
several weeks suffering with heart
trouble, and other complications have
set in which precluded his recovery,
according to the statement of attend
ing physicians.
He had a severe sinking spell this
afternoon, and for some minutes lac
was expected to die, but later rallied
and is resting more comfortably.
His illness is the result of his eX-
cessively hard fought campaign three
years ago and the steady and persist
ent effort he has made since entering
congress.
He was warned a year ago against
any unusual activities, but this came
during his most telling attempts in
congress against pensions and he dis
regarded the warning in the face OF
duty Several weeks ago he was so
weak and prostrated that he was fore
ed to give up and return home where
he has hoped to regain his former
strength.
He has continued to struggle valiant,
Ily against his malady, but to no avail,
all chance of recovery being practi-
cally abandoned. Doctors say he may
| live for several weeks and then again
that death may come at any moment.
