bales, ginned in White County,
from the crop of 19x8 prior to
November 14, 1918. \
Habersham County ginned this
year 755, while last yfear’s was 93.
At a meeting of the Board of
Directors of the White County
Bank everything was found in
good shape. After investigating
earnings it was unanimously voted
to pay out an other 10% dividend
for the year 1918, which totals 20%
for this year.

. When a man buys a pair of
shoes, he does not throw them out
in the streets to be run over and
ruined by passinp vehicles, yet a
man will let his cattle get on the
railroad track and be killed by a
passing locomotive and destroy a
hide that will make ^from ten to
fourteen pair* of shoes. The
Council'of Defence, in its campaign
for the conservation of Food and
Leather, points out that it would
be better business to keep stock off
the railroad tracks.
