Hunters Anxiously Waiting.
Local sportsmen are begin- |
ning to get out their old, briartorn,
grass stained corduroys,
still flecked with last year's
feathers, and to potter lovingly
over their trusty shot-guns in
the long evenings; for the open
season begins on the 15th and ,
the shambling brown stubble- !
fields are calling. 1
Sunrise of the 15th will open
the bars?such as they are in
careless Carolina -and thereafter
the plump Bob White must;
shift for himself among the j
cracking 12-bores. It's a good
year for birds, say the hunters, i
meaning precisely the opposite
thing; rather it's a mighty bad
year for birds, if one is to judge ,
by the number of dogs now in !
training.

We do not know as to whether it is a good idea to v
hold cotton for higher prices or not, but we know \
you cannot lose very much money by holding nine a
cent cotton and the chances are equally as good lor ^
you to make as to lose, and if our customers think d
it a good idea to hold their cotton we have plenty #
of money to loan them at 6 per cent, in order to en- # ;
able them to carry it. While cotton mills are mak- # j
ing very little money at present prices of cloth and K
yarns, still they are able to be running on full time
and everything seems to be much brighter than it
has been for twelve months past. (?
