THE COTTON ASSOCIATION
HAS CALLED MEETING
To Be Held in the Court House on
Friday to Form County Associa-
tion-Every Farmer Urged
to Be Present.

To the People of Newberry County
The central committee of the New
berry Cotton association has called
a mass meeting to be held in the
court house at II o'clock on Friday,
the 18th instant. Every person in
terested in the common welfare is
invited and urged to attend, espec-
tally each member of the township
committees.
The purpose of this meeting is to
inaugurate a systematic and perman-
ent organization of the Cotton asso-
citation as an integral part of the
state and national associations.
A short time ago the minimum
price fixed by the American Cotton
association was reached. Due to the
loyalty of the people to the associa-
ton. Spinners could not obtain suf-
ficient cotton without paying the
price. When it was reached, an
abundant temporary supply was sold.
The spinners then practically with
drew from the market, and the price
has declined about twenty-five dol
lars per bale.
The minimum price of 35 cents
does not represent the full value of
middling cotton based upon sales of
the manufactured product. Upon
that basis it is worth nearer go
cents per pound. Fhe disparity be-
tween its value and the price we OBJ
tain has been due to the lack of self
protection. because we have not here
tofore had an adequate organiza-
ton. We now have able and good
men at the head of the cotton asso-
ciation. The work they have done
has saved millions Of dollars to the
cotton producers. Their work has
been patriotic and self-sacrificing,
and it is now going on with acceler-
ated enthusiasm; for they see ahead
a glorious future for the South. 1t
is due to ourselves that we give them
full support by forming systematic,
permanent organization. The sup
port we received last spring from all
classes of our citizens assures US they
realize that it is matter Of the com
mon welfare. They are all eligible
to membership.
We hope that every one will be
present on the 18th. M. e. F. Nc
Leod, state organizer, mas promised
to be with US on that day, AMI f;1
information as to the details of +..e
organization can be obtained

HEAVIEST RAIN in NEWBERRY
FOR MANY YEARS TUESDAY

The north prong as we'll as the
south prong of SCOTS creek was
higher on Tuesday than it has been
in many years, in fact, it has not
been so high since the culvert under
the railroad has been enlarged.
The rain began falling about 80
in the morning and it rained very
hard and constantly until about ten
o'clock and continued raining during
nearly the entire day.
a good many years ago, before
the culvert under the railroad was
enlarged, we remember that the wa
ter got up into the garden at the
jail and in the houses just below.
This time it was in the houses all
along Harrington street beyond the
Jail west and the inmates had to
! move out. We are told that there
was a man sick in bed in one of the
houses and the water came near up
to the bed in which he was. 1t was
all over the bridges on College and
Vincent streets and over the corn
on the bottoms. We do not know
! the rainfall, but is was certainly the
hardest rain we have had in New
berry in many years.
The south prong of Scott's creek
was also out of the banks and over
the bridge at the knitting mill prop
erty and the bottoms all around. Mr..
C. R. Wise had just started the day
before to cut the hay in the bottoms
above the bridge, and it was all ruin
ed or washed away. He says he lost
some $500 or $500 worth Of hay.
Mr.. E. Lee Hays and Mr.. John R.
Perdue say that the rain was very
heavy out toward the Saluda river.
Mr.. Hayes says the heaviest rain he
has ever known since he has been
| living out that side.
And the rain extended all he way
to Columbia, though we understand
toward Greenville and on to Hender-
sonville the rain was not so heavy.
Mr.. G. w. Summers car came
through from Hendersonville that
day and the rain was light along the
mountain side.
Wednesday and Thursday thu sun
was shining beautifully, though on
Thursday there are some clouds
around.
The temperature Tuesday night
was rather low and heavier clothing
was not uncomfortable. II may be
that we got touch of the storm tFat
was said to be coming west from the
seas.

Believe 1t or Not.

The following is from recent is
sue of the Winnsboro News and Her
aid. Those who believe it can do SO;
those who do not believe it can also
do so:
Just seven years ago, the temper
aryzeditor of this paper was CAM
paigning for Office and stopped at
Bob Lewis house in Longtown. 1t
being hot, he took off his vest, in
which he had fine watch, and laying
it on fence in the back yard, calf
chewed up a pocket of the garment
containing the watch Last week
DR.. Pollock was called to see sick
cow down there. It turned out to
be the same calf and the time piece
was found in such position between
the lungs that the respiration-the
closing in and the filling of the lungs
kept the stem winder wound up
and the watch had lost but one hour
in seven years.
The watch was removed by DR.
Pollock and the cow is doing we'll.
