More Cotton to Gin.
The cotton gins Of York county have
done but little ginning since January
LIST, but this fact Is due to the weather
conditions of the past two months,
rather than to there being no cotton
to gin. There Is much cotton in the
fields, and while 1t Is now damaged
and 'blued" by the long wet spell,
many of the farmers will pick this cot
ton out II the weather Is favorable.
Some of the gins have closed for the
season, but others are still in shape to
gin all the cotton that comes to them,
only combining themselves to one day a
week. If weather conditions are IA
vorable during the next week or two
and the final picking Is completed, all
the %ginneries will probably close for
the season by the end Of the month.
