Americas sportsmen are fully as

o. Bob White" and his family when
the shooting season opens November
9sth. That there will be large sup
ply of birds in this county during the
coming season is the report received
from different sections of the county
and when the season opens this fail
the hunters are expecting to have a
big time. The season has been very
fine one, as it has been neither too wet
nor too dry for the little brown beau
ties" and they are in prime condi
ton. The recent laws in regard to the
killing of them has had a good deal TO
do with their increase also, preventing
the indiscriminate slaughter of them
during the past season and giving ther1
the opportunity to multiply.

Der shop to get his hair cut. 1t was a

ANERICUS STILL
THE MECCA OF
HAPPY FARMERS
RECEIPTS OF COTTON STEADY
More Than 1000 Bales Re-
CGiVed Already

Americas was eminently the Mecca
of the behind the cotton bales yester-
day as receipts here for the day ran
the total receipts to this date consid-
erably in excess of 1000 bales. From
half dozen counties came the wag-
ons of happy and prosperous farmers
to this, the best market in south Geor-
gia.
Farmers were still sellers YESTERDAY
and despite the fact that the futures
market showed a sharp decline of for
ty points from the high-water mark
Of the day previous, Americas buyers
continued to pay IL IL cents for the
staple.
This was the set price prior to the
noon hour, and several hundred bales
sold at u IL cents, or $62.50 per
bale, rafting good price for cotton
| With bullish conditions obtaining in
the futures market for cotton because
of the confirmation of pessimistic re-
ports from the west regarding the de-
cided deterioration of the crop, Geor-
gia farmers seem destined to reap a
harvest of high values.
Spots were quoted yesterday in
Americas at 10 Ia cents for middling
but the general grade of the new crop
has been around good middling and
those selling their cotton in Americas
received II IL cents for that grade
These are the record prices for the
saeson.
The good middling basis which the
new cotton grades is due, it is said, tc
the fair weather, with no rains t.
stain or damage it and the seasonablC
conditions that have generally pre-
JAILED in the Americas territory.
Local warehouses and buyers yes
terday received about 600 bales of new
crop cotton, which runs the total fol
the season up to about 4,100 bales.
1t is the opinion of local cotton mer
who have followed the upward swee.
of the futures market in recent days
that the cause is primarily the fac
that the crop in Texas and Oklahomt
has been seriously damaged througf
drouth, no rain having developed a
the most critical stages of the plan
growth for almost, if not quite, twc
months.
With these conditions in the west
Georgia farmers are expecting ;
great yield. Farmers of this section
Of the cotton belt, realizing that the.
will reap advantages as a result o
the short crop in the west, are 81
eager to harvest their staple that they
ale working under high speed to real
ize top prices.
