SALSBURY
Cotton Planting
Seed
For Heavy Production and Early, Maturity
A NEW VARIETY
SALSBURY IS DISTINCT
•
SALSBURY is a distinct variety—the result of eight year’s plant breeding
by Professor J. W. Fox and Mr. E. C. Ewing, the experts of the Delta and Pine
Land Co. at Scott Miss. Commencing with an extra-early heavy-fruiting
strain of Wannamaker-Cleveland, these men have worked untiringly year
after year selecting and cross-breading, keeping the best and eliminating the
underesirable, until they produced SALSBURY, which we believe to be a per
feet cotton. It has all the disirable qualities of an early big-boll short cotton;
still, is worth a good premium in any market. '

ardship, and the scripture lesson
from Ist Chronicles was read by-
Mrs. Lillie Camp.
Mrs E. T. Hopkins gave a stirring
appeal for the superannuate cam
paign, emphasizing the fact that the
preachers of the gospel are defenders
of our country the same as soldiers,
and are entitled to a pension for the
service they render. There are one
thousand superannuate preachers in
southern Methodism today, and the
raising of one million dollars for the
support of these Christian soldiers is
a magnificent challenge to our
church.
Miss Ida Mitchell and Mrs D. M.
Byrd talked most interestingly of the
Interracial question, saying that we
! should study the needs of the negro,

Expert Sees Continued Prosperity
and Growth in All Trade Lines.
Markets Given Careful Study.
Atlanta, Ga., March 3.—Continued
prosperity and business expansion
may be expe;ted in practically all
lines during the present year, in the
opinion of Frank Hempstead, Atlan
ta business expert and federal tax
counsellor. Mr. Hempstead bases his
prediction on what he has heard and
seen in his recent trips over the
country, and particularly, over the
south.
'“The business situation looks bet
ter all the time,” said Mr. Hemp
stead. ‘‘Apparently there is pessim
ism in any section of Dixie. It Hs
not now a question of whether pros
perity will continue, but how busi
ness men will adjust themselves to
the situation. There is a tendency to
branch out materially. It is an ex
pansion, however, which is given
consideration only after careful in
vestigaton. The disposition of busi
ness men generally shows a balance
wheel. Producers and distributors
seem to have a ‘weather eye,’ so to
speak. They want to know their
markets before they broaden out
too much.”
Mr. Hempstead, in addition to per
sonal investigations, receives well
sifted reports on all business activi
ties, and his expert advice is sought
by many of the big business leaders
in various sections of the United
States. His investigations, however,
have not been confined to the larger
cities, but he has visited many of the
smallr towns and rural communities
in southeastern territory. He said
he was greatly impressem with the
optimism and business confidence he
found even in the most remote coun
try districts.
