LARGE BUILDING
COTTON STORAGE
NEAR COMPLETED
FOURTH WAREHOUSE ERECTED
TO MET PRESENT NECES.
tiles.

In Americas, as in many Georgia
cities, additional space for the storage
of cotton had to be provided, and to
this end four large warehouses have
been erected here recently and already
are filled up, or nearly so. Harold
Bros. erected the first one, with a ca
pacity of 1000 bales, while the Dudley
warehouse will take care of as many
more.
Mr.. L. G. Council has also erected
one additional warehouse building.
which was filled to the roof, even be-
fore the roof was quite completed, and
he is now erecting third warehouse
building of larger capacity at the cor
ner of Jackson and Wheeler streets.
This latter building fronts sixty
two feet on Jackson street and ex-
tends back almost the depth of a city
block towards Lee street. 1t is sub
stantially built of brick and iron, and
when no longer needed for the storage
of cotton it can readily oe utilized as
wholesale store, or for other pur-
poses.
Americas now has eight big cotton
warehouses, ali of them carrying large
stocks, while the cotton compress and
two gdano factories are likewise pack
ed full of bales which are being held
for tetter prices.

FAMILY PARTY TRAMP|NG
FROM INDIANA TO FLORIDA

VALDOSTA, Ga, Nov. 19.-The most
forlorn-looking procession that ever
filed through Yaldostas streets was a
party of eight, composed of two wo-
men, two young men and four child
rem, who tramped into town yester-
day afternoon. The party's sole pos
sessions of this worlds goods was done
| up in a bundle loaded on child's goat
wagon, which one of the young men
was pulling.
A crowd surrounded the wayfar-
ers when they stopped on Hill ave-
nue. to rest awhile The spokesman
of the party stated that they were
on their way from Indiana to Crys-
tai River, Fla, and that they had
walked the entire distance so far.
