COPELA Rev. and Mrs. Tremble have gone to Montreat, North Carolina to spend the month of August. Capt.. and Mrs. J. A. James are spending some time at Chimney Rock, North Carolina. Rev. and Mrs. M. W. Gordon left last week for North Carolina, where they will spend the month of August on his vacation. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Anderson left last week for Florence, where Mr. Anderson successfully underwent an operation in the hospital there. Mrs. Will S. Judy of St. George spent a few days in Summerton the past week, visiting her parents, Rev, and Mrs. W. E. Wigghes. Rev. W. E. Wiggins returned last week from Pendleton where' he had been assisting in a meeting. The past week has been one of the hottest ever recorded around here Some of the oldest inhabitants recall having seen hotter but to the writei it has certainly capped the climax with him. The hot wave would have passed more pleasant had we had a supply of ice to soothe our throats in the intense hot afternoons as most of us were too busy to use the palmetto. There seemed to have been a great demand for ice also in our neighbor ing cities and towns as we were unable to get anywhere, however, the weath er has turned slightly cooler and ice is not so much missed. Most folks can pass a sultry (lay very well provided however that we have a breezy night following in which to recuperate but when we have hot days, hot nights, mosquitoes and no ice, makes a com bination almost unbearable to those who are used to - having ice in the household. Some lreople say that ice is a luxury however, we cannot see it that way, especially the younger generation who were always accus tomed to the same, for of times it saves a great deal of things that would otherwise have to be thrown away. We understand that the ice plants have about caught up now tho and will have a supply on hand this week sufficient to meet the demand and that with no mishaps they will be able to handle the trade through the remainder of the summer without any further trouble which f feel sure is splendid news to every one. Dr. and Mrs. W. H. Carrigan have returned from their honeymoon trip to the West and now are at home with Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Carrigan on Dukes Street. " Mr. and Mrs. .Jno. Culler oWolfton are visiting relatives and friends in Summerton. Miss Sallie Anderson who recently underwent a" operation at a Charles ton Hlospitai is rep~orted as -getting along nicely and is expected home in a few days. Mr. Emory Rodgers is spending sometime in the mountains of Vir ginia. M1f Cecil Parrish of Sumter visit edl her mother, Mrs. Rodgers this week. We have noted a great rise in the cotton market since the Government estimate came out on last Friday. The govern meat estimate wvas 67.1 whlichi indlicates a small crop the coming season, however the crops around Summerton are fa ablove this p~ercen age despite the i-ceet heavy r-ainfall, but as we all know this estimate was madec from the general crop condlitionls all over the c-otton helt. Other see Liens, especially Texas and l.ouisiana and Southern A laba ma have hadl an c. -essive amount of r-ainfall and this is the cause of the low crop condition and partly responsible for the recenit advance, the activeness of the Cotton G;rowvers A ssociat ion and foreign buy ing also being responsible for the ad vance. We think that the gover-n meat has made the correct estimate as it agrees very near with the -esti mate of the Cotton Griowers~ Associa tion and they are in a positioni to knowv and have experts studlying the crop conditions all the time. Recent re ports from the Associat ion state that if the farmers contijnue to hold their last year cr-op, those, that have not sold already, that they wvill get at least fifty cents this fall. We ai-e not in position to state that this is tirue, however we believe. that we will have a good price at the opening of the season in September, and probably through October but the general rule is along about D~ecemiber the specula tors tend to tear up the market as nmich as possible and we may look for lower prices, howvever this does not matter, provided we can get the lab or to gather it is under normal con ditions the crop -vill be gathered by this time, and especially will it be so this year ns there is a decreased acre ngn and ni short.1-rp .,..~ite~. The NIE ND, -Correspoa prices were very strong last Decem ber tho and reached the highest for the year along abo.ut the last of the nicnth, however the speculators had previously tried to lower the market and found that the Southern farmer refused to sell and seeing the coming prosperity in buying raised the mar ket only to drop again in the spring. That was not under norial conditions. This year the mills state that they can pay seventy five cents for cotton and still make a fair profit and in my opin ion we have more reason than ever before to think that the market will be strong, but advise those who, will eventually have to sell to do so at the beginning, as to wait may cause a calamity, when the speculator finds the correct yield for the season. - 0 FOR SALE-my famous Ford Tour 1,ne car.
