Louvain on the German troops. Snip

officer of the general staff, who was

THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA.
CALLED ON TO
EXPLAIN WORDS
U. S. Army Officer Quoted as
Saying Germans Fell on
Antwerp “Like a Hyena in
the Night.”
Washington. Louis Livingston
Seaman, a first lieutenant of the
United States army medical reserve
corps, on the Inactive list has been
called upon by the war department to
explain whether he made adverse crit
icism of Germany army operations In
Belgium attributed to him in news
dispatches. Attention of officials was
drawn to published, reports in which
Mr, Seaman discussing the attack on
Atnwerp by the German Zeppelin,
was represented as saying the Ger
mans fell upon the city "like a hyena
in the night, murdering helpless wo
men and children.” He is said to
have cabled a report to Washington.
As I)r. Seaman is on the inactive
list he cannot be courtmartailed for
violation of President Wilson’s order
lo army and navy officers to refrain
from partisan discussion of the Euro
pean struggle. Officials say his name
might be dropped from the inactive
list, however, should It he found he
made the utterances attributed to
him.
COTTON
Needs Picking.
There are thousands of bales of cot
ton open in the fields of Toombs
County that ought to be picker) and
placed in the warehouse as quick as
possible. Quicker It Is picked and
stored in the warehouse the better it
will be for both the debtor and the
creditor.—Lyons Progress.
, Back to the Farm.
About 700 bales of cotton have been
received at Tlfton this season. The
Farmers’ Warehouse reports about 300
bales and the Farmers' Union Ware
house 405, of which 152 were received
this week. The Farmers’ Union Ware
house reports seven or eight bales
sold and tile Farmers' Warehouse
fourteen. As yet there is no market.
Many farmers have their cotton gin
ned and carry both cotton and seed
back home. —Tifton Gazette.
Local Cotton Situation.
Little new cotton is coming in to
tha local market notwithstanding the
fact that the crop is early. The far
mers are slow in rushing to market
and they are being enoo .ra/,cd in A™
by tb« warehouse men who itte of the
opinion that It will be to the best in
terests of the planters to go slow
while the price is so low. Good mid
dling is only bringing BV4 cents today,
v/hich figure la entirely too low for
the wise farmer to accept.—Columbus
Ledger.
Cotton la Cotton.
Tha cotton market Js a little “down
in the month" but cotton is cotton tot
a' that. The man who has cotton in
the warehouse will be able to hold his
head up and talk saucily to his cred
itors and the chances are he will be
enabled to get an extension of time
on his note or account. —Moultrto
Observer.
Selling Cotton.
The cotton market opened up In Sa
vannah this morning at 8% cents per
pound, it will gradually go up, ana
our advice to the farmers is to hold
it. Don’t be bushwhacked by so much
talk about the low prices and hard
times. —Milien News.
Don't Sacrifice Your Cotton.
Georgia farmers would do well to
hold on to their cotton Just as long
as they can this season. The price of
the staple Is bound to go up. Cotton
sold at Liverpool this week for 13
cents and it is going higher. Do nc’.
sacrifice your cotton or cotton seei.
it will lie to your Interest to hold to
the product.—Columbus Ledger.
Cotton seed oil mills offer too low a
price for seed this fall.
Meal is up—Hulls are up—OH Is up
and yet the mills have put the price
of seed down from $24.00 a ton to
$14.00 a ton.
Farmers will not sell seed at this
low price.
It appears to one who is vitally in
terested In this seed and cotton prop
osition that there has been some man
ipulating In the price of need and hulls
that, if It dies not constitute a re
straint of trade. Is so close kin to it
that our new district attorney, Don
aldson, should at least investigate the
rise in the price of hulls and cotton
seed meal and oil. The price paid at
the mills at this time has gone down
from $24 per ton last year to sl4 pei
ton this year. Last August cotton
seed meal was $26, while now It Is
quoted at $29; last year hulls were
$5.50 to $5 per ton, while at this time
they sell for $7; cotton seed oil Is
quoted today at cents or approit*
mately 46 cents per gallon.—Albany
Herald.

OPEN LETTER
To Our Customers in Georgia
and South Carolina
The present European war situation has disorganized
the financial world, and is having its effect upon business in
our section, caused principally by the uncertain basis upon
which the present cotton crop must be financed and market
ed. We are now going through a “reconstruction period” and
our country will soon adjust itself to a sound and stable basis
upon which we will all do business, live and prosper.
With an abiding faith in the value of cotton we are wil
ling to do business on a COTTON STANDARD at 10c per
pound, on all sales to cotton producers or shippers, made
after Sept. Ist, 1914.
In accepting cotton at 10c per pound in payment for
Remington, Smith Premier and Monarch Typewriters we
*
require that it be on basis of Augusta middling and delivered
to us f. o. b. Augusta, Ga.
