Some farmers who have several
available pickers carry the wagon
to the field and as soon as a bale

equipment can do a good job on
this kind of cotton. Our farm
ers can do a great deal toward
improving the ginning qualities of
their cotton by storing it in well
ventilated houses for several

to dry out and “fluff” before

AN ECHO AFTER ALL
There a little old house by the
river of dreams,
In a land of a long time ago;
There are pastures and gardens
and flowers it seems,
And stories we all love to know.
There's a way leading there
by the trail of a night.
A night passing days of a past;
And Memory reveals it so
pretty, and so bright.
And life seems to want it to last.
It is fond recollection of the I
times gone by,
Some times that we wouldn't
recall;
Just ask us—we'd answer wt
hardly know why,
It is nought but an echo after
