of the post-season championship se

Albany outfield offering some of the!
poorest plays that ever have been
displayed on the local diamond, Wil

with the bases full.
Williams was relieved in the eighth
by Morrow. Mayer atarted for the
visitors and was wild, and when Al

by Wolfe, who went good until the

BUY A BALE OF COTTON
Capital suggestion that—buy i bale of cotton. Tbe proposition
is meeting favor with the cotton producers. It is a speedy and fair
means by which to dispose of what is called "distress cotton," L e., so
many bales In a given crop that the grower feels he must sell in or
der to realize the Urgent amount possible per bale and thus be In po
sition to cancel many if not all of his debts. The sale of a small
per centum of a farmer s crop at \0 cents a pound, middling, will en
able him to hold at home or in warehouse the remainder until a
better price is obtainable. At the same time, the farmer can secure
a loan at bank in a resonable sum on the basis of 8 cents per
pound, backed by a warehouse receipt.
Waycross ought to step to the front on the "buy a bale of cotton"
proposition. Let every man and cveqr wpmau. who can spare the
money, Invest In a bale of cotton. 350 will buy a bale which weighs
500 pounds. It is a safe investment Supported by a warehouse re
ceipt, it will endorse your note for $40 at bank should you have
need for that amount In un emergency.
The Journal will gladly assls' In this patriotic business move
ment. If, upon reading this article, you feel that you would like to
Join the procession, phone uh your name, address ond the numbor of
bales you are ready to buy and pay for on delivery. Those purchases
should be distributed among the rurmers so that us many as wish to
