Cotton Is Ancient.

Just who discovered cotton Is not
known. The early records are so In
complete that no Individual can be
credited with the discovery Of the val
ue of this wonderful plant. Long be-.
fore Caesars time, among the Hindoos,
they had law that If you stole piece
of cotton you were fined three times
it's value. Most of the eaIly narions
were familiar with cotton-the early
Egyptians, Chinese and other ancient
people used it and valued it.
