STORAGE
More than 100 Bales Placed in Lo-
cal Warehouse to Date : Globe
Store Joins Buy-a-Bale
Movement

Demonstrating that the theory OF
storing the cotton crop and holding it
as solution to the problem, is being
practiced in Chickasha, is the fact
that practically all the cotton ginned
to date in the city has found its way
promptly to the warehouse of Wootten
& Burton, scarcely any of it being sold
on the street, except to the advance
ment of the ''buy movement.
The latest purchaser of a bale in this
movement is the Globe store, the price
paid being the customary 10 cents per
pound. The Moore gin, according to
the superintendent, has ginned up to
date nearly 100 bales and is now turn
ing out an average of from Is to 20
bales day. The receipts at thel ocal
warehouse have been more than 100
bales. some having come from nearby
gins. Practically. every bale of cotton
ginned at the Moore gin is being haul
ed straight 10 the warehouse, very
few of the farmers hauling their pro-
duct to their homes
The Chickaasha compress has not
started operations yet, for the simple
reason that there mas not been suffic-
lent cotton received to warrant start
OF the plant Ordinarily there would
be hundreds of bales on the compress
docks at this time Of year and the fact
that these are absent is taken to mean
that the cotton is really being held.
