ENCE LESS THAN 1000 BALES.

i'm Terrell 1882, as Compared
With 3S,412 Year Before.


in Terrell 81, 1892, as Compared
With 3S,412 Year Before.
The ginning figures for Terrell
county up to January list show that
the crop of 1914 was practically the
size as that of 1913.
The figures gathered by County
Agent w. S. Dozier for the census
bureau show 1882 bales had been
ginned up to January LIST, as against
3S,412 on January list, 1918, or $50
bales less the present cotton crop
than the year before.
Two more reports including the
final report are to be issued by the
census department, but little change
will be made in these figures, as all
the cotton in the county has been
picked and scarcely any remains to
be ginned.

The following from Mrs. Dunston's
emancipation day poem will give the
reader an idea of the sentiment which
it breathes:
For when ships with human freight
Crossed thousands OF ocean miles
And brought thee here, o child OF fate.
Trapped by the traitors snares and
wiles.
Ye toiled and saved 'twiNt sobs and sighs,
With heavy hearts and sore.
To blaze the path for nations rise,
For achievements and deeds galore
For twas We who titled the stubborn soil
And by thy arduous task
Ye've laid this strong foundation
Whereon wealth and fame may last.
And cen We read in later lore
How We fought for the masters life.
Kept safe his home offspring and wife
From pillase and scenes of strife.
Come together, men Of letters,
Compile thy heroes deeds:
Let the moralist and the leader
Live the life for men to heed.
Sobriety. chastity. meekness.
Temperate in habits be.
Such wisdom defies all weakness
And imbibes frusalty.
