DINNER MEETING OF
CHAMBER COMERCE
—— | /

Mr. Lee S. Radford will preside and

J. W. NICHOLS CAP
TURES DEER IN
TENN. MOUNTAINS
Mr. J. W. Nichols, one of the prom
inent citizens of Winder and Barrow
county, know’ll to all of our people as
the tombstone man and a manufactur
er of hardwood products, has returned
from a trip to Copper Hill, Tennessee,
and Frog Mountain. Mr. Nichols had
in his possession upon reaching Winder
a two-year old deer which he claims
to have captured on Frog Mountain
by himself by out-running the buck.
James says it happened this way. He
had gone out on one of the mountain
streams to fish for mountain trout and
was sitting in mid stream on what he
thought to he a log. Eventually the
log began to wiggle and to his great
amazement lie found he was sitting on
a snake whose head was on one side
of the stream and liis tail on the other.
Jim said he started to run and looked
hack and the snake was also running
after him. Then he got a little faster.
About that time a deer jumped up and
as they were loth going in the same
direction, Jim says he patted the deer
on the back for four miles. After
this tive minutes of association Jim
says he and tlie deer became fast
friends and Jim invited the deer home
with him. Jim said the traiu came
along after he put the deer in the
lot and scared him. The deer jumped
the fence which was 6 feet and three
inches high and lauded nine feet on
the other side. Jim got on his trail
and caught him after a chase of another
four miles. Jim said he measured the
distance covered by the deer and the
shortest jump was more than 12 feet.
The old citizens of Frog Mountain
told Air. Nichols that the deer would
shed its horns each year and that a
new set would come out and grow 6
inches per day until grown.
.Tim says the buck will eat anything
a goat will eat. and we consider he
will he a great asset around the house
in the way of cleaning op old tin cans,
old shoes, etc.
We can’t vouch for the fact in the
above statements, we are only relating
what was told to us by Jim.
Live Wires Meeting.
The Live Wires of the Christian
church held their regular monthly meet
ing on Tuesday, May Bth, at 8:00 P. M.

nutt, Mr. Claud Mayne, Mr. J. B. Coop
er.. J. T Walden, Mrs Norton Hill,

Mr. Roper.
Mr. Roper was in a Christian e’>”rcb
for his first time and the Live Wires

nected with the Georgia Railway and
Power Company and we will he glad
to have him join us in our meetings
while stationed here.

COTTON BUYERS
GOING ELSEWHERE
Invading Ollier States for a Better Va
riety.—We Must Improve our Sta
ple by Planting a Better
Variety.
The quality of cotton grown in Geor
gia lias seriously deteriorated during
the last few years. Up until a few
years ago, North Georgia cotton had a
staple of one to one and one-sixteenth
inches. This cotton was in demand
and the prices were better than were
secured from cotton grown in other sec
tions.
We formerly produced eighty to
ninety per cent of this type of cotton,
now only thirty to forty p r cent of our
cotton is of this type. Buyers who
formerly purchased thousands of bales
in this state are now going to Missis
sippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas
to secure the kind of cotton they need
In large lots.
In order to receive the l> sf price for
our cotton it will lx* necessary for us
to bring the standard hack to the place
where at least ninety per cent will run
better than 7-8 inches. It is up to the
growers to discard the inferior staple
varieties and grow those of better qual
ity if we hope to retain our position in
the cotton world.
The world's consumption of Ameri
can cotton in 1921-22 was atVnit 12,-
(>OO.OOO hales; the indicated world’s
consumption for the year 1922-23 is not
less than 13,000,000 hales. There is no
evidence at present that the consiimp-
if 1923-24 will fall below these
figures.
The world carry over of lint cotton
in the United States, at the end of tlie
present cotton season will he 1.184,000
hub's, compared with a carryover of
4.287.000 in 1920, 6.534.000 in 1921 and
2,832,(KM) halos in 1922, respectively.
