It seems that far-: mere living near here are offering -pedal inducements ;o these women to pick cotton, even going »o far a.s tofurrtish transportation for them Ui their farm - and ba?k. That is all very nice but it is not treating those 1 whose cook., are induced to leave ! with much consideration, and, we » 0« !aro say, if the reverse process were worked on tires in th. ir busy^*t*ason they would howl. The golden rule is a good one. Nothingjis said of the lack of re sponsibility of these cooks, who will without notice, leive their work and go to these farms a fe v weeks and expect the town employer to 1 >ok after them the balance of the year.
