Winder, Barrow County, Georgia, Thursday, September 14, 1922. First Cotton Ginners’ Report THE FIRST cotton ginners’ re port shows that this crop is much earlier than in years. Up to the first of September there had been 143,947 bales ginned as •against 47.563 last year. The dry weather in south Georgia has caused the staple to open rapidly and in many places they are almost through picking. In this section of the state picking lias just begun. U. S. CROPS WILL BREAK RECORDS Farm Products Will Net Billion And Two Hundred Millions of Dol lars Over Last Year. Atlanta, September 12. —That there will lie a bumper crop of practically all farm products this year is the opinion of agriculturists here to-day; in fact tlic indications are they will net One billion anil two hundred million dol lars more than last year’s crop. The estimates nr** based on seventeen staple products, wheat, corn, oats, bar ley. rye, buckwheat, white potatoes, sweet potatoes, llax. hay. wild hay, cot ton. apples, peaches, peanuts, grain yor ghum. and tobacco. Thev are expected o yield $1.13 1.051.000, according to lg □res compiled ITv the :u:ti mnl depart ment of agriculture and made public at the Georgia department of agriculture. "Restored confident* in the business world is based primarily upon this en ouraging prospect of excellent agricul tural •ondiiions, and it is not wrong placed.” said Joel Hunter, noted bus ices expert, when seen today by the correspondent of this news in file South niul is closely in touch at all times villi agricultural conditions. “No matter what stimulates there are in tie* business world prosperity can he no greater than the new wealth that is created from year to year,” con tinued Mr. Hunter. “The farmer's dol lar is the standard of currency. When his is not forthcoming others shrink. Farmers Are Coming Back. “Business is going to tie better, this fall, hut that is not as good news as the thought that thousands of farmers who have been despondent and who have hold ttp patiently under adverse cotl<litions are coming back strong. It will not take them long to liquidate their losses when such crops are rais ed as will be raised this year, and when tlie farmers have been completely re habiliatod, it will not take industry and business long to follow in their wake. 1 UNCLE RAY CAMP GOES TO MILL IN FLYING MACHINE In Atlanta there are approximately one thousand and one people or about one-half of one per cent of the total population who either hear the cogno men Camp or are related by ties of blood or marriage to that clan. The head of the family is |£ny Gamp, of Campton. whether it be the Compton of the races celebrated in song, the de ponent saith not. Anyhow, at Camp j town resides the patriarch! of the fam- J ily and he has resided there for the last ninety-two years, which is a con siderable span as life runs in these feverish times. He is the typical patriarch in years and progeny, for when tljere is a fami ly reunion each year lie is surrounded |by flocks of grandchildren and great grand children to such a .numerical ex- tent that goodness knows how lie re members them all. but there is no doubt but that lie does. For this patriarch is a long way from the slippered pantaloon stage of Mr. Shakespeare despite ninety-two years and about as many great-grand children. He’s a very keenly alive old fellow, this patriarch, who doesn’t de pend on memories for liis thoughts and who scorns tradition as a basis for action. Camp Grist Mill Near Campton. For instance, from the time man's memory runne’th not to the contrary, the Camps have owned a grist mill near Campton, which is in Walton comi ty, if there are any so ignorant as not to lie possessed of this information al ready. { A fine dashing creek turned the time the grist mill continued to grind and to it in his boyhood Ray Camp us ed to make almost daily pilgrimages, his Imre fed on the red clay soil be ing the method of motion. Later as lie grew in stature and wis dom, lie rode in a slow but certain ox cart that dragged its weary way from the Camp home place to the Camp grist mill. Roads and the times improved and in due season Mr. Camp was able to reach the mill by means of a mule team, hitched to a spring wagon. But progress'knows no halt., Soon Mr. Camp was going over the same old route hut this time in a huckboard with a bay horse of spirit and pedigree, stepping bis flashy way along in front of tightly\drawn reins. In natural sequence came the trusty Ford and then the high-powered car with nickel mountings and upholstery and all that sort of thing. And all the years and about as many great-grnnd aiul its owner continued to progress. Felt Old Urge to Visit Mill. Shortly after his ninety-second birth day, Mr. Camp felt the urge to visit tin 1 mill. The urge felt, In* went about visiting. He didn’t however, call out ‘Jim, yoke up those oxen.” nor did he command. “Sam. hitch up that mule team,” nor were his orders. “Jack, hook that liny to tin* huckboard.” nior yet again “Henry, crank up that flivver.” nor even “Henri, slap your f*a>t on that self starter, we arc off for the grist mill.” Instead he ran to the long distance telephone and got in touch with Julius Malsby and Leßoy Winn and other prominent Atlantans, who have become allied with his family. “I feel like going over to the grist mill today,” he told them. “I under stand there’s an aeroplane hanging around loose In Atlanta. Have it sad dled or started or whatever they do to one to make it go and send her on down here. I’ve gone to that grist mill every way that’s been known to get there hv covering ground, and now by flic eternal, I’m going to fly there.” Which he ylid despite ninety-two years and about as many great-grond children. —L.

Mrs. Stewart Shot As She Plead That The Rowing End and the Partici pants Go Home. Last Saturday night at “Buddy” Stewart’s store in Ben Smith’s district in the lower part of the coun ty, occurred a general shooting affray in which several were wounded. It seems that it is almost impossible to know exactly who did all the shooting. Several shots were fired. It seems that Hiram McDaniel and “Buddy” Stew art had quarreled during the day and (he former had been ordered to leave the store. He left, It seems, and later returned with bis son. Curtis McDan iel. (>n the return of the two men the shooting began and in 'he affray Mr. Stewart was shot in the breast and is dangerously hurt; Mrs. Stewart, who had gone down to the store to quiet the trouble, as her mother, Mrs. John O. Perry, was quite sick at her home, was also shot in the breast. Mrs. Stew art had nothing to do with the trouble and only went down to the scene on account of her mother’s condition. Boh Jackson was shot in the knee. Cur tis McDaniel suffered a severe lick on the head and was also shot in the hip. A Mr. Griffeth sustained a broken nose and others were bumped about con siderably. To cap the climax of tlie night, when Lon Simonton, son-in-law of Buddy Stewart, started to Winder in a Ford car to gel medical assistance, his Ford turned completely over, catching him under it. However, he escaped with no serious injuries. A warrant was sworn out for Hiram McDaniel Saturday night charging him with the shooting. Sheriff Camp placed him in jail. Tuesday Mrs. Hiram McDaniel swore out warrants for Buddy Stewart and his son-in-law, Lon Simonton, Bob Jack son and Mr. Griffeth, charging Mr. Stewart with doing the shooting and the others with assault and battery. Mr. Stewart has been carried to a hospital and is in a ertiical condition. As to who did the shooting, the evi dence is so conflicting that it is im possible to say. The whole matter will be sifted out in the courts.
