I*LAY A WAITING GAME
Is the AdviCe Given to Cotton Holders In
This Period gf Low Rrices.
A twelve million-bale cotton crop
is something immense, to be sure;
but, in view of the fact that we
have not yet caught up with the
effects of several successive short
crops, it is hardly reasonable to
expect that the price of the staple
will continue on its downward way.
We print a note of encouragement
from the Wilmington Messenger,
which does not believe the farmers
ought to allow themselves to take
fright at the prospect.
To the same effect is an editorial
in the Augusta Chronicle. Our
Georgia contemporary leans to the
opinion that the government esti
mate’has overshot the mark; but.
even if the forecast proves to be
within the actual figures, it holds
that the slump of fifty points upon
receipt of the agricultural depart
ment’s report is not warranted by
the size of the crop or tlie condi
tion of the trade. Speculators, it
says, “have undoubtedly seized
this opportunity to exert a strong
bear influence, but their grip on
the market will be temporary and
of no great effect on the real value
of the south’s great staple.” It
believes that the low price of the
last few days cannot be maintained,
and that as the season advances
the cotton now in the hands of
s uithern holders will fetch a great
deal more money than it would at
present prices.
The American Cotton Manufac-
turer, a publication of high author
ity in crop and trade matters, takes
a hopeful view of the situation,
even on the basis of a twelve
million-bale crop.
All our exchanges that have
referred to the matter agree that
the southern planters were never
in a better situation to play a wait
ing game with the market than
they are at present. As the Char
lotte Observer remarks, they have
not put all their eggs in one bas
ket, a practice that the Morning
Post has labored early and late to
discourage. Such seems to have
been the case quite generally, so it
is not at all uucommon to find
small farmers in the country with
two or three bales of cotton on
baud and no immediate necessitV
for selling it. Farmers are gener
ally agreed that ten cents a pound
is a fair price, but they may not
realize that much for this year’s
crop. Still, if they can afford to
hold their cotton and will wait for
a rise, they will make enough by
the operation to compensate them
for the delay,—Raieigh, N, C. Post.

THE GOOD OLD WAY.
A severe cold orattack of la grippe
is like a fire, the sooner you combat
it the better your chances are to over
power it. But few mothers in this
age are willing to do the necessary
work required to give a good old
fashioned reliable treatment such as
would be administered by their
grandmothers, backed by Boschee’s
German Syurp, which was always
liberally used in connection with the
home treatment of colds and is still
in greater household favor than any
known remedy. But even withou:
the application of the old-fashioned
aids German Syrup will ewea severe
cold in quick time. It will cure colds
in children or grown jieople. It re
lieves the congested organs, allays
the irritation, and effectively stops
the cough. Any child will take it.
It is invaluable in a household of
children. Trial size bottle, 25c;

Two years ago the Pharmaev Board

Company, I)es Moines, lowa, U. S. A.
The absence of all narcotics makes
this remedy the safest and best

of security that any mother can
give it to her little ones. Chaberlaiu’s

mended by its makers for coughs,
