Wlth Col. T. Larry Gantt
ON MONDAY we took our week
ly round among merchants. They
I aro very hopeful for the future.
Several told us that they had taken
{ rides out in the country to inspect
j crops, and others had the most en
couraging reports from customers
jand parties in whom they had
cnfidence. The general opinion is
that if farmers continuo their fight
against the weevil for three more
weeks a surprisingly good cotton
crop is assured. Two of our lead
ing merchants stated that they
were so encouraged over the out
look for a fall* and winter trade
that they had increased their or
ders. The consencus of opinion Is
tnat Athens will, beginning next
fall, have the best cash trade Its
merchants have ever known.
ington cheese factory will start up
on Wednesday of this week, with
MR. PATTERSON of the whole
sale house of Canning A* Patterson
says their business is most satis
factory and farmers who visit them
are hopeful and encouragod. Ho
has seen twenty bales of cotton sell
in Athens for only $20<h while you
could hardly give away Inferior
grades. At the present price
takes less than two bale* to bring
the grower $200. So for one-fifth
of a pre-boll weevil crop the fann
er will receive as much cash ns
he once did for a bumper crop, and
in those days he had to pay opt
that cotton on debts, but this year
most farihers will have that money
to spend.
I A GENTLEMAN who has made a
study of the Athens cotton busl-
t ness says that not a farmer who
' stored his cotton In one of our
warehouses has ever lost a dollar
by failure of this factor. There is
sometimes delay In adjusting mat
ters before’ the court, hut tho
farmer Is always given his cotton
after deducting for nny advances
made him. He says those who had
cotton stored with Barrett & Co.
need not ha'’« any fear o p lowin'
their bales. The courts will -<urn
over their cotton to them.

MR. HENSON, Broad street
merchant, says he has 100 acres
planted in peanuts on his Jeffer-
ferson county farm, and no crop
pays better. He can easily make :
ton per acre and on rich land with
favorrfble seasons has made two
tons. Peanuts are now bringing
$180 per ton But peanuts lik eall
crops that take leave no litter,, ex
hausts land and should not be
planted on the same field two
years in succession, hut the land
sowed in legume crons.

A GENTLEMAN tells us he w
in Commerce this week and hail a
. talk with Editor Shannon. Mr.
I Shannon had Been farmers from
several counties around his town
and they give the most encouraging
crop reports as to both cotton and
corn. If the seasons are favorable
that section will make exceptional
ly good crops.

MR. HENRY COMER, who has

hpvo come out wonderfully, and
his section will make a good cot

tho weevil. Corn is also doing well.

MORE THAN 12,000 KILLED
Several Hundred Thousand Injured
These startling figures, compiled by the National Safety Council

Careless drivers—hot automobiles are responsi

about one automobile in every thousand kills one
person every year—about one car in every thirty
is responsible for some injury—broken limbs,
bruised backs, injured heads or eyes—loss of
time.
Properly handled, the motor car is one of the
nation’s most useful servants but the few careless
drivers are an ever-present menace to safety
