COTTON SEED FOR PLANTING * ? i I Seeing* the need in this County of a better short staple cotton and a eotton that will mature earlier than the varie ties now planted rye . purchased ' 1,000 bushels of the Salsbury planting seed for distribution. These seed were grown on the largest cotton farm in the world ? a 41,000 acre farm where the seasons are about two weeks later than our own. Therefore, cotton grown from these seed will mature earlier than if seed were" grown in a warmer climate. This cotton is extra prolific and grows staple one and one-sixteenth inches in length which al .ways brings a good premium over the shorter lengths. As a money crop this cotton led all others on tests at the Mississippi Agricultural College. J. L. MOSELEY, Camden, S. C. Seed Now Ready For Delivery. Do You Need Money TO BUILD OR BUY A HOME? IF SO.
