THE LONS STAPLE
To Meet at Gainesville, Fla.,
The Crop in Alchua County Will Fall
Short 33 Per Cent Thia Year but
Price* are Running Lower Than for
Several Seasons—To Organize‘for
Protection.
Gainesville, Oct. 30—Notwithstand
ing the fact that the production of
cotton in Alachua county will fall
short about 33 per cent this year, it
Is a fact also that prices are running
lower than for several seasons. It Is
natural to Infer that the scarcity of
the staple would have a tendency to
increase rather.than decrease
pi-tee. t s
It has been Intimated that the buy* |
ers in this territory have combine^
in an agreement on prices. One party
from Alachua which is the most im-». j
portant cotton center In the coiinty,
if not tho entire oe& Island belt/in
Florida, states that a great deal
the cotton In that section is bell
held for more encouraging prices and,
as a rule, those holding the same are
financially enabled to do so, eventual
ly forcing the buyers to pay better
prices. In .the majority of cases those
growers selling cotton are disposing
of the staple In the seed .under
vanced contract. ' yjfli
There has been ginned at Alachua
far this season about'1,000 bales,
against about 1,400 tor the same per
iod last year. The highest price paid
so far this season was 18 cents and'
the buyers it is said have offered
low as 15 cents a pound.
The sea island growers of Florida
and Georgia will hold a meeting at
Alachua on Thursday November 2,
for the purpose of forming a growers’
protective association realizing that
the time has come when they must
combine, If they expect to continue
the cultivation of cotton to any finan
cial advantage.

in a runaway. The carriage fell on

think, for ever since I have had great
trouble. The kidneys have been all
wrong, the secretions were very dark
and I have had trouble in retaining
them, particularly at night, being call

seriously affected my general health
and I was suffering all the time from
.terrible pains. I used plasters and
liniments and tried several kidney
