MR.. JONES THINKS THERE
is PLENTY TIME FOR COTTON

In letter 10 the editor Of the
Avalanche, r. d. Jones, Of Paducah
has this 10 say regarding the cotton
situation in the Lubbock section;
~ seems 20 me that your peo-
pie are stopping the planting Of
cotton too soon. Your first frost
rs usually our first one, and we
always have much good cotton
planted the last Of June and the
first Of July, which always makes
some cotton.
with the season you have and
the prospects we have for high
prices ] feel you farmers are over
looking a bet in not planting more,
especially in the hailed out districts.
One hundred pounds Of seed cotton
promises 20 be worth as much as
a ton Of maize, and there is yet an
excellent chance TO plant and grow
one thousand pounds Of seed cot
ton 10 the acre
Mr.. Jones has given the cotton
raising question quite deal Of
thought and studies it from every
angle. and his ideas along this line
are no doubt well founded. We
pass this bit Of information 20 our
readers for their consideration, hop
ing that 10 will be Of some real
worth TO them, which we feel that
IL will be, should they heed IL.

A wonderful feast was spread,

joyed throughout, according 10 re-
ports brought home by the Rad

JOY eating groceries as much, OF
better, than they enjoy selling
them, they claim, and II their word
IL true we wish TO impress u up
on the minds Of their entertainers
that there were two happy Lubbock
men al Rails Friday night. Mus
grove and Lyle are live wires, and
know how to show themselves a
good time, and no doubt the as

their willingness and ability TO

W 2. EDWARDS OFF
ON BIC FISHING TRIP

". r. Edwards, manager Of The
Leader left Sat. for 2-weeks fish
ing and hunting trip along the Devils
river. and into Old Mexico. a trip
he has been making regularly for
the past several years.
Mir. Edwards has been working
mighty hard the past several weeks.
having come TO Lubbock one month
ago. and took over the Leader man
agement. and through his efforts the
store has enjoyed a wonderful pat
ronage. the bankrupt stock having
been cleared away. and there are
now many shelves full Of nice new
goods which are being offered 10 the
public on close margin.
Mr.. Edwards has had an agrees
i've a. well as a progressive policy OF
that business. He didn't
shoot at the people with one little
attempt, then expect
them 70 fall over themselves getting
TO his store in response, but kept
a constant bombardment Of circu-
lars, page. half page and quarter
page advertisements and more err
culars and bigger advertisements go
ing in their direction, until they we're
finally convinced Of the merits OF
the sale. and the sincerity Of the
manacement in their attempts 70
dispose Of the goods. and as a result
called at the store to look over the
stock, which further resulted in the
nice report Mr.. Edwards made TO his
friends a while back in an Avalanche
ad reading somewhat like this "Sale
Is off. all the bankrupt stock is gone,
but there is plenty new goods on sale
at bargains" which showed that his
aggressivcncss had gotten him in
very little time.
We are mighty glad 10 note that
he II leaving Lubbock for only short
stay, for we like 10 have men like
Mr.. Edwards in town, for they are
needed here. not that there Is a
scarcity Of that kind here BY any
means, but that the more the better.
II will be heartily welcomed on
his return from the hunt.

LUBBOCK COUNTY HAS NO
EQUAL. SAYS COOPER

G. c. Cooper, one Of Lubbock
county's diversifying farmers, was
in town Saturday transacting bust
ness Mr. Cooper has farmed IN
West Texas for many years, and
said that he believes the Plains the
best producing section anywhere,
as his crops are always above the
average in other countries, and
livestock does better here than in
other parts Of southwest Texas,
where large tracts Of land are de-
voted exclusively to that industry.
Several weeks ago he sold four
teen barred rock hens 20 the South
Plains Poultry and Hide Company,
which averaged seven and half
pounds each, the fineness Of the
birds being attributed to the ideal
conditions IN which they were raised
as much as TO the thoroughbred
stock.
''It rains enough, Is cool enough,
never too cold Is never too hot,
and a hundred other favorable ises.
