ALLENDALE NOTES
Allendale, S. C.—The Southern Cot

establishing a cotton warehouse here
in connection with Its large ginnery
and mixing plant.
Our people ate loath to part with
the fleecy staple at the present prices
and this other warehouse will be
hailed with delight by the cotton
planters.
Mr. E. H. Oswald has Inaugurated
the “Buy-a-Bale” movement here by
buying his bale at 10 cents per pound
and proposes to buy a bale for each
of his three children. The first hale

Mr. E. (J. Melvin, traveling sales

was the next to buy a bale.
Others will doubtless follow . this
patriotic action.

clubs will take the matter into seri

that the M. & M. might get out a
pretty badge—a red and a white rib

representing a cotton bale. Let ev

woman who buys cotton goods only

BRITAIN'S DUTY TO
HELP BELGIUM.
To The Herald.
A London dispatch says that 60,000
Belgian refugees are expected to ar
rive In England In the next ten days,
and that tile British government has
extended a general invitation to all
Belgians made homeless by the war
to come to that country. This Is con
siderate of the British government,
but It Is due the Belgian people front
the United Kingdom to care for them
in tlielr destitution, inasmuch as their
heroic resistance to the invasion of
their country disconcerted the Ger
man plnns for a swift movement upon
Paris and enabled the allied armies
to mobilize their forces for such ef
fective resistance as they have since
made to the great German fighting
machine. Had the Belgians not fought
so heroically and effectively for three
weeks, the German military plans for
the speedy overwhelming of the French
and British forces on French territory
would have been successful.

WOMEN DO NOT WANT TO
DRESS TO GO TO MARKET
To The Herald:
I would like to express my opinion
concerning the purchasing of fruits,
vegetables, chickens, eggs, etc., from
the wagons which pass our doors. I
find it a great convenience and saves
much time to the busy house-wife,
who does not care to dress for the
streets to go out In search of the
above mentioned articles and who Is
not In favor of purchasing altogether
over the phone I fall to see where
they are an annoyance, and have of
ten been greatly benefited and reliev
ed by having the opportunity to se
cure some necessary supplies from
them.

COTTON LIST
WEEK
New Orleans, — A determined hold
ing movement and few offers of dis
tressed cotton was reported by cotton
buyers here during the past week.
With this condition came a better de
mand and steadier prices for spot cot
ton. In the eastern belt where some
markets are Quoting spots, rises of
one-sixteenth to ono-eighth *were
noted from day to day.
The “buy a bale” movement spread
this week to all parts of the cotton
region and it was generally consider
ed that It had not a little to do with
the firmness of farmers. Good pro
gress was made during the week with
the liquidation of old accounts and
It was felt by future brokers, that the
steadier feeling In spots, if continued,
would help determine, before long, the
date of the reopening of the rings to
active business.
The small ginning returns In the
first report of the season. Issued this
week, Bhowtng an outturn only a lit
tle more than half that of the same
period during the last three seasons,
was taken as assurance that the
movement in the near future would
continue small and that there would
he better chanre for real pressure to
sell spots this week.
Weather conditions over the belt
were extremely favorable, and If they
continue Into the coming week, big
crop talk will increase.
The approach of the maturity of the
October position is being await
ed with much interest because
of the threat of shorts to liquidate
means of the delivery of actual cotton.
Developments in this connection may
arise this week. Optimisitic cotton peo
ple claim that the next week or so
ought to see a more favorable turn in
the spot situation. Pessimists, how
ever. continue to point out that this
looks like a large crop year and that
a surplus Is Inevitable and must be
cared for.
Acute Indigestion.
•1 was annoyed for over a year by
attacks of acute Indigestion, followed
by constipation,” writes Mrc. M. J.
Gallagher, Geneva, N. Y. “I tried
everything that was recommended to
me for this complaint but nothing did
me much good until about four
months ago I saw Chamberlain's Tab
lets advertised and procured a bottle
of them from our druggist. I soon
realized that I had gotten the right
thing for they helped me at once.
Since taking two bottles of them I can
eat heartily without any bad effects.”
