PARROT News Notes.
The gin known as the brick gin"
will be operated by Mr. J. S. Jones,
Of Yeomans. Mr. Dunn's gin run on
full time last week and the ginning
on Friday and Saturday was heavy.
Both gins will be crowded from now
on, as cotton has opened very rapidly.
The hot, dry weather has caused the
plant to shed the top bolls, and the
yield will not be as good as was ex-
pected two weeks ago. Corn and pea
nuts were too well matured to be
damaged to any great extent by the
heat and drought.
