(From the Times-Recorder February
j. G. Glover sold a lot of cotton
in Americas yesterday, and when
fat roll of bills was handed him in
payment it reminded him of other
days when cotton bales brought $50
each. Mr.. Glover received an aver
age of $51 per bale for the goodly
lot sold yesterday, and he still has
dozen more at home for which he
hopes to get ten cents ere long.
The scarcity of dwelling houses
here has advanced rents considera-
bly, and there is still an unsupplied
demand for homes. Yesterday a
gentleman stated to the Times-Re
month that he was willing to pay
$25 for a six or seven room house
near the business center.
John Crawford, one of the best
known and most successful of the
colored farmers here who own their
lands and are making money was in
town yesterday.
Mrs. P. A. Jackson, it is under

J. F. Watson her very desirable
