THE AMExICt'S W» P.KLY TIMES-RECORDER. FRIDAY. AUGUST a3, 1907,
I
I0TAL OF 140 BALES
CAME INDURING DAY.
first Saturday of Season a
Good One,
fLEEGY TIDE ROLLS RAPIDLY HERE
With $65 as the Average Value Per
Bale-Cotton Season Opens In
Americus Most Auspi
ciously.
One hundred mid forty hales cot
ton made up yesterday's receipts at
Americus warehouses, a very good
day’s business Indeed for the season.
Friday's receipts were 35 bales, and
alcrady there Is a total of more than
200 new bales to our credit here.
Yesterday’s receipts—MO bales—
was a trifle larger than expected, in
view of the rainy days of the past
week, which delayed picking.
Warehousemen were well pleased
with the day’s business.
The new cotton is of excellent qual
ity and readily brings thirteen cents
in Americus. The greater portion of
that brought in yesterday sold for 13
eepts, a splendid price which netted
the fortunate owner $65 for a 500
pound bale.
All of yesterday’s bales were sold,
one buyer alone taking 70 bales.
Even this number of bales, at the
top notch price, put more than $S,000
at new cotton money in circulation in
Americus.
The cotton season thus opens aus
piciously, and a week hence the fleecy
tide will be rolling high. A fair es
timate for this week will be 1,200 to
1,500 bales, provided the weather re
mains fair and farmers have a
chance to pick the staple.
Fields about Americus are white
with open cotton, and with the price
at 13 cents it will be rushed to mar
ket as rapidly as possible.

LETTER TO TV. D. BAILEY,
Americas, Georgia.
Dear Sir: Here's a tale with a
pplnt to It. Florida Is the hardest
state in the Union for paint.
Gilmore & Davis Co., Tallahassee,
Florida, think they know what paint
oan do In their climate; they’ve been
painting for 35 years, D^voe ten
years; and they say Devoe wears 10
years—their words are: “Buildings
we painted Devoe 10 years ago are In
good condition of paint today.”
They also say lead-and-oll wears
only one year there—Devoe ten years!
Ten years Is a long lifetime for
paint in Florida—longer than 20 in
Kalnte, We don’t dare say either is
true as a general fact In those States;
hut there are general instances.
If we should call the cost of Devoe
lb Florida half the usual cost of
paint, it would be too much;we sup
pose it's about one-third; there Is so
much trash there—the costliest paint
is the worst, and the worst Is the cost
liest everywhere. YourB truly,
,’B F. W. DEVOE & CO.
AmericuB Construction Co. sell our
paint.

-Two Members Police
Force Going.
The “Americus Colony” down In
Decatur county, where are located
several of the largest tobacco farms
iu the world, Is to be further recruit
ed a month hence when a half dozen
men here will go to the farms to take
desirable positions.
These will go as superintendents,
and the salary Is inviting.
Police Officers Willis and West
brook, two of the best men on the
Americus force, will go to Amsterdam
early in October where, it Is said, they
have already ncepted positions.
Besides these two, several exper
ienced farmers near Americus, who
understand Intensive agriculture and
the management of labor, have also
accepted positions ranging from $75
per month up, besides a big bonus
promised by the company.
This “bonus” Is for any excess
crop made over the average, and of
ten amounts to even more than the
annual salary earned.
Already there are a half dozen
Americus people thus employed by
the tobacco people at good salaries,
and all are well pleased. The com
pany furnishes a residence, free of
cost, to each family and living ex
penses are not even as great as here.
The country Is very similar to this;
high, rolling, and healthful.
Tobacco culture there is carried on
in all its perfection. The company
has millions of capital and Its out
put Is enormous. Hundreds of peo
ple are given employment at profitable
wages, women and children alike
earning excellent pay.
These work In the factories, hand
ling the cured tobacco. The commun
ity Is an excellent one and the very-
best order prevails there.
Various expedients are being resort
ed to, It Is said, for the purpose of
getting around the state prohibition
law. A number of express agents In
various sections of the state have re
ceived letters from a Richmond, Va.,
liquor dealer, asking them to act as
agents for this Arm for the sale and
delivery of liquors after the prohibi
tion law goe3 Into effect. The letter
is very artfully worded and offers a
bonus of $1 for the name of each
person who uses liquors from the firm.
The $1 Is payable upon the receipt of
the first order. In Americus the same
reliable and safe old tiger will probab
ly get busy again.
