An Innovation in Oil Heaters
The Perfection Smokeless Oil Heater, with its
drums enameled in turquoise, is an ornament to any
room, whether in the country or city home.
No home is quite complete without a Perfection Oil
Heater. It is a necessity in ’.he fall and spring, when it is too
warm to start the regular heating apparatus, and too cool to be
without heat. In the midst of winter it is often convenient as
an auxiliary heater, as there are always some cold comers
in a house.
The enameled heater always presents a nice appearance, as the
enamel will not tarnish or bum off. It is not an “enamel paint, ’ but t
is the same as the enamel of your cooking utensils.
The Perfection is the most reliable and convenient portable heating
device you can find. An automatically-locking flame spreader prevents
turning the wick high enough to smoke.

That Hamilton street, from one end
of the paving to the other, will soon
be the best lighted street in the city,
is attested by the fact that workmen 1
are busily engaged in digging holes,
and placing the poles for the Great i
White Way.
The work is under the direct super- ’
vision of Mr. C. C. McCamy, and with 1
a corps of able assistants should be
completed in less than thirty days. I
The poles will be placed from 60 to
100 feet apart, according to the popu
lation. There are 52 poles in all,
each bearing two large globes.
The Great White Way will add a
great deal to Dalton and has advan
tages too numerous to mention. It is
a mighty good investment. Passen
gers on the trains going through can
not fail to see it and they are sure to
realize Dalton is a progressive
city. Again, the fact that we have
paved streets and a Great White Way
will prove gratifying to prospective
citizens. The chamber of commerce,
in its descriptive booklet, can un
doubtedly make good use of both of
these improvements.
It is certain that the merchants will
profit by it, and it will be “a thing
of beauty and a joy forever.”

As stated in The Argus of yesterday
Mr. M. A. Foute, lessee of the Colon
ial Hotel, at Rome, Ga., was in the
city all day Monday, looking over the
field with a view of locating here.
In the afternoon he was introduced
to the business men of the city and a
proposition to organize a stock com
pany was made, and met with enthu
siasm. Mr. Foute proposes to take
some stock himself, just how much is
not known, and manage the hotel as
carefully and as conservatively as he
has the Colonial at Rome.
Everybody approached was very
much in favor of a new hotel, and at
the next meeting of the directors of
the chamber of commerce, which will
be in the course of a day or so, the
proposition will be gone into careful
ly, and an estimate made as to the
amount of stock which could probably
be sold.
i Mr. Foute left the city last evening,
very favorably impressed with Dal
ton and the reception -which he had
been given.

any figures, but stated that he was

the plan had received here. He also
jokingly remarked that business in
that line would be better in case any
thing happened to shatter confidence
in banking institutions.
“Judging from the way he keeps on

Lower Hamilton street looked busy
this morning, when at 11 o’clock there
were 72 bales of cotton on the street,
by actual count.
The sudden rush to market can pro
bably be attributed to the cold snap,
and the subsequent needs of the far
mers. The prices remain about the
same, however, the best grades bring
ing from 8 to 9 1-8 cents.
At New Orleans the cotton market
will again be concerned with figures
on ginning this week as the present
period in the census bureau schedule
of reports ended Monday night. It
will not be long before private bureaus
estimates of the amount ginned will
have considerable influence on the
course of the market. The census re
ports will be issued next Monday.
The time is now rapidly approach
ing when picking and ginning must
fall off. In some sections the crop has
I heen almost entirely gathered and in
not a few sections much more than 80
per cent of it has been gathered. Gin
ning, it is claimed, is not very far be
hind the picking and a considerable
falling off in the outturn of the gins
may be expected at any time. If
there is a hint of this during the week
-the market ought to be better.
In Thomasville, Ga.. with the great
slump in prices Thomas county far
mers are beginning to hold their cot
ton right along now and there wi’l
not be much brought to town until
there is some change the price.
The majority of the growers seem to
be holding their cotton on the farms.
Many of them bring it in. find out the
price and take it back home. There
are between seven and eight hundred
bales stored in the Farmers’ Union
warehouse here that also is being held
for higher prices.
What cotton is left in the field still
unpicked is of very poor quality and
has become rough and unsatisfactory
from staying in the open so long.
The season there has narrowed down
to the retail business. At least seven
ty-five or eighty per cent, of the cot
ton from that territory has been ship
ped and ten or twelve per cent, is be
ing held by the growers.
