COTTON TO BREAK RECORD
IN SPRING, DECLARES PEDDEH
Atlanta Manager of Bradstreet Sees
High Prices Ahead.

ATLANTA.-The statement that
in his opinion cotton will reach its
highest market price in many years
next spring, if not before, was made
by j. E. C. Pedder, manager OF the
Atlanta office of Bradstreet.
Mr.. Pedder declared that the con-
traband order has practically no eff
feet whatever, that the warning pow
ers will take every bit of cotton they
can get past the blockade and are
more than willing to buy cotton now
and store it in America until the war
is over. He stated that this is being
done every day already.
Ten million producers have be
come consumers on account of the
war said Mr.. Pedder. They have
to be clothed and America is the only
country which can clothe them. This
fact will make the price of cotton
soar as it has never SCARED in many
years.

Hundred Million Dollars Damage.
The boil weevil is now causing
damage amounting to S100,0O0,OOO
to the cotton crop of the South annu-
ally and is gradually spreading. Geor-
gia has an opportunity unequaled by
that of any other section that has yet
been infested to curtail the damage
to next years crop. The present crop
has been made. If every cotton
grower will give active cooperation
he can get rid Of practically all the
weevils on his farm and thus mate
rally reduce the damage to next
years crop.
Every bit of cotton should be pick
ed as early as possible, and then the
stalks should be cut and put under
at least four inches of dirt or burned.
This will destroy the weeyils before
they get out of the cotton field into
winter quarters. If this is done there
will be comparatively few of them to
begin the attack on next years crop.
Let the farmers of Terrell and sur
rounding section be in Dawson on
October 9th, and get the benefit Of
what the visitors will have to say in
their campaign against the boil wee

Cards to Senator Chase.

Webster City parties who are OPP
posed to the repeal or amendment OF
the present state road law are send
ing postal cards to Senator Chase
asking him to support the highway
commission and the present system
of permanent road building. The
finds there is
much difference of opinion as to the
merits of the present law, yet there
is no difference of opinion as to the
desirability and necessity of good
roads. We all want good roads, of
course, and the taxpayers are will
ling to pay for them, but they are
opposed to waste and useless expen-
diture of money. The Freeman
Tribune takes it that Senator Chase
has given or will give the details of
the law careful consideration, and
that he will take the course he deems
best for the taxpayers there can be
no doubt. People who have not
studied the law and it's workings
are hardly in position to advise the
senator, and the Freeman-Tribune
admits it is in that class upon this
particular proposition.

PAVING BILL READY
FOR SIGNATURE
Makes it Possible for Towns and
Cities to Pave Outlying
Districts.

The Farr paving bill, giving cities
of more than 1000 population, with
the exception of special charter
cities, the right to organize paving
districts and levy a tax not exceed
ing one mill for the payment of half
the cost of paving by the city, was
passed by the house yesterday and is
now ready for the signature of the
governor. 1t is expected that the
governor will sign the bill and that
cities wanting to pave the roads in
the suburbs will be able to do so.
The bill was drafted originally to
enable Sioux City and Des Moines to
pave their streets in the outlying
sections. 1t applied only to those
two cities. Before being passed in
the senate, however, amendments
were added which made its proviS-
ions applicable to all cities other
than those under special charter of
more than 1000 people.
1t is likely that Webster City will
take advantage of the provisions of
the new law and pave some of the
main roads leading into town.

that God is love, and that holy love
governs all his feelings towards us
and his purposes for us. This love is
near, and boundless, and longsuffer-
