, A Cotton Warehouse. '
* /
Nothing has been more thoroughly
demonstrated this fall than that, para
mount overi all other of Tifton’s
needs is that of a cotton warehouse.;
The lack of it stands as a menace to
our city’s trade, and causes a loss
every season that would thrice re-pay
the interest on the cost of construc
tion. As the matter now stands, the
Cotton is brought in to town on the
farmer’s wagon. On the wagon it is
sampled, and there it stays until he
walks over town, tries the market,
and finally sells; when on the same
wagon it is carried to the depot and
dumped. Now around the depot
trains are passing, or making up, at
nearly all hours of tbc day, and as
the farmer cannot select the stock lie
drives to town, but must drive such
as he has, and they are often as much
afraid of the train as their owners
arc of meeting a newspaper man, the
hauling to the depot is a great incon-
venieee and a little dangerous, to say
nothing of leaving the staple standing
on the wagons in the sun and rain
until it is sold. With a warehouse,
the cotton could be weighed sampled
and sold without further trouble, or
stored for a prospective rise. The
only reason 'Tifton has held her own
so well as a cotton market is because
of the pluck and enterprise of her
merchants, urnl the liberal prices they

Therefore, believing that upon
an educated and up-to-date farmer
depends a happy and prosperous
people, and as the newspaper is the
greatest educator of the age, the
Gazette has determined to present
each of its subscribers with a year’s
subscription to his choice among
the following—the leading farm

house, this cun he easily done, for not
more enterprising merchants or cot

At present, over 1,000 bales aie
marketed here in the season. This
number would be trebled with ware
house facilities.
