N. 1. FEELING IS
WE CHEERFUL
Cotton Exchange Anticipating
Early Opening---New Eng
land Mills Considering Large
Orders.
New York. —A decidedly cheerful feel
ing prevailed on the cotton exchange to
day regniding e possibility of on
early re-openlng of the exchange. Part
of this whs due to a report that both
he syndicate and corporation plans had
been oveTHut»H«rlhfd and that an an
nouncement from them was only await
ing a few unimportant details yet to
he completed. it Is expected that the
conference committee will soon take up
with Liverpool the question of opening
the two exchanges simultaneously. New
England mills are said to he consider
ing large orders for heavy drills hut are
unable to cover their sales with pur
chases of cotton and are awaiting the
Opening of the exchanges in eftder to
hedge their transactions. In the last few
rlays limited purchases of cotton close
to 7 cents delivered, have been made
.by these mills.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA.
F. W. Woolworth Company Gets Lease
on Old Hunter Store Near Broad and
Eighth Streets For Period of 10 Years
•
Augusta to Have Three Five and Ten Cents Stores Beginning
With Next October-- Herald Learns on Authority That
Store Next to Corner Has Been Leased to Woolworth.
Several months ago The Herald
printed a striry to the effect that the
F. W. Woolworth Company would
probably invade Augusta with a five
and ten -cents store, beginning the
first of October, 1915. The Herald
has since learned upon authority that
is believed to be absolute that the
Woolworth Company has leased for
ten years the store next to the corner
Of Broad and Kighth Streets, south
side, now occupied by a portion of the
store of VonKamp, Vaughan & Gerald,
r s he store was at one time occupied
by the Hunter Dry Goods Company.
It is understood that there will be ex
tensive improvements made.
The United Cigar Stores has leaded
the corner of Broad and Kighth. Von-
Kamp, Vaughn & Gerald some time
ago purchased a store further up on
the 800 block into which they will

JAP BATTLESHIP
CAPTURES GERMAN
Honolulu, T. H. In sight of ths nis

Utility versus
Fancy Qualities
Experience has taught that utility and
fancy qualities ran he bred at the same time,
though formerly this was not generaily believd.
The old-time poultry raiser breed for egg
laying typeis. Propreseive breeders today
breed for both qualities, for by so doing they
obtain a higher-grade flock. The breeder for
fancy types alone is equally at fault. To neg
lect either quality for the sake of the other is
an error.
Next week’s article will treat the subject
exhaustively.
I/ook for it, appearing exelnMvely on Mon
day in The Augusta Herald.
move next October, after making ex
tensive alterations.
The invasion of Augusta by tha
Woolworth Company is the result, so
it is understood, of a policy of the
Wooltvorth and Kress stores to go in
to each other’s territory wherever
conditions are considered propitious.
According to the general report, Kress
and Woolworth originally had an
agreement not to enter each other’s
territory, that is when Kress put up
the first store in a city, Woolworth
was not to invade that city, and vice
versa when Woolworth entered a city
first. It is said that one of these two
big concerns broke the agreement and
since that time each has been busy
getting into cities where the other
company has stores.
Augusta will have three five and
ten-cents stores, the first of next
October.
