"R. B. Oates, custodian of the Tirzah
warehouse has cotton packed and ar
ranged in the warehouse in manner
that is good to see," remarked Fred
Smith of Tirzah the other afternoon.
And / understand" went on Mr..
Smith, that he has about all the cot
ton in that house that will go in there.
The capacity of the warehouse is a
little more than GOO bales and there is
about that much cotton in there now"
Warehouse 10 Full.
THE Glover warehouse is packed to
it's utmost capacity" said Mr. V. Q.
Hambright, cashier Of the First Ma
tional bank OF Glover, the other day.
Farmers have been piling in the cot
ton here of late. Still good deal of
cotton has been sold on the Glover
market the past week or ten days.
expect an average of twenty-five bales
or more a day. The cotton that is be-
ing sold is the last picking, however.
There seems to be a general tendency
TO hold on TO the better grades"
Baseball.
"If Yorkville is to have 4 baseball
team next summer as good as that one
she had last summer, it is time that
somebody was getting busy and lining
things up" remarked baseball fan the
other day. "I'd like TO see some Of the
fans get together and discuss the prop
oSition-agree on a manager and map
out campaign for the raising of
funds. That baseball team last sum-
mer was good ad for the town and 1t
Afforded pleasure and pastime for lots
Of people. Let's start something pref
~ quick"
Stopping the Speeders.
Speaking of automobile speeders
and making drivers stay within the
law it is really problem to know how
TO handle the situation" remarked
Chief Of Police Ed Steele of Yorkville
the other day. IT sometimes think
that the best solution is to give every
officer the power to shoot the tires
when the drivers of cars won't stop
when ordered to answer speeding
charges. And yet that is dangerous
because when one shoots pistol one
really does not know where the bullet
is going"
Doesn't Know the Gent
Rabbit" is the name of little negro
with big eyes who shines shoes for the
public in a Yorlivlle barbershop. Rab-
bit can shine shoes beautifully when
he wants TO, and when he doesn't want
to he can make botch of II.
What's Santa Claus going TO bring
YOU Christmas, Rabbit?" inquired a
patron of the barbershop the other
day.
"Nuthin' boss" returned Rabbit. "To
tell yo' all de truf dat man amt nebber
favored me with no Christmas appre-
chashun since all had been able to-
know whut was gwine on Ground"
The Chester Creamery.
I'D like to see the farmers OF York
county who have more milk than they
can use at home patronize that Ches-
ter creamery which has recently been
organized" remarked John r. Blair,
York county farm demonstration agent,
the other day. There's money in it,
Mr.. Blair went on to say, and the more
milk the creamery gets the more it Will
be able TO pay for milk. 1t takes a
great volume of patronage to run a
creamery. l doubt if a creamery locat-
ed anywhere in York county would pay
and | doubt if the creamery in Chester
would be able TO make it if it were to
depend upon Chester alone. These
people are looking for support from
York and other counties and l believe
if York county farmers will investigate
little they will find that there is
money in ii for themselves.
Hair Cuts.
Funny how styles and customs
change" observed the barber as he
hacked on a two days growth of stub
ble on the customers face the other
day. Take the matter of hair cuts,
for instance Before the World war
didn't have more than ono call in ten
for Il feather edge hair cut, and now
nine peop'e out of ten want their hair
cut in feather edge style. The war did
it. You sec most soldiers wear their
hair cut feather edge. When they got
out Of the army they kept it up and
people who were not in the army pat
termed after those who We're there. IN
this particular the electric clippers,
with which all barbCrshops are equip
ped now. come in mighty good. If it
wasn't for the clippers | don't know
what BARRIERS would do. They simply
couldn't hold out in clipping so many
heads of fcather-cdgc style by hand"
Coons Around the Knob.
"Coons are showing up around
Hcnry's Knob and in the vicinity Of
a
