1. Since fanners have started gathering their crop, and seeing
actual conditions, reports indicate the crop srill be very short. The
last government estimate was only 18,492,000.ba'ss. It Is reported
a further loss has taken place on account of boll weevil and unfav
orable weather,Vend the proapects are for a very small crop. Last
years’ consumption figures were 17,428,000 bales.
2. Taking.these facts into consideration it appears to me that
26c, possibly higher, is certain before January first I believe the
opportunity fbr profit is juste* great as it wss last year. I there-
wre, ad vim making purchases immediately before any further
advance.
8. I can buy the actual spot cotton for you, in small or large
lots, as I have for ether Investors, and store same in my bonded .
warehouses. You may pay for same outright and I will issue
you a bonded warehouse receipt, or I will advance you 80 per cent,
of the amount and you. can deposit the balance.
4. I will akq be glad to hamdle any of your cotton you . ship,
either for sale or storage. Phone or write me for any further in
formation you desire. PHQNE 448.

130. Acre Pea Farm
4 Bamberg, Sept. 6.—Bamberg has
the distinction of having an entire
farm planted entirely in peas. One
hundred and thirty acres of the plan
tation of Captain Paul Whtosker, a
meirfber of the faculty of Carlisle
echool, has this acreage, which is all
the land on the place planted this
season. So far aa inquiry reveals this
is the largest acreage ever planted
in a hay producing crop in this sec
tion; The hay is now being harvested
and is turning out splendidly/
In May of this year Captain Whit
aker came into possession of the Wil
liams farm a few miles firom town on
the Ehrhandt road. _. • •
It was too late in the season to
{plant the ordinary crops of cotton,
corn, etc., and the owner was too
(badly engaged to his school duties to
think of anything else to plant (nit

peas, and planted them - broadcast af
ter school closed, beginning on June 3.
It required 1 28 days to complete the
planfting. ' . ; ,
No Animals Used...
Not a stogie animal was used on
the plantation this. year. He began
his farming operations by buying a
modem farm tractor and appliances.
He firAt broke up the land> with turn
plows and then planted the peas with
a grain drill. The pea vines are un-
isnually fine, and Captain Whitaker
,is reaping about three-fourths of a
bon of fine hay to the acre.
A week or ten days ago he began
harvesting the chop. He has no
hope of being able to harvest the en
tire acreage, and has decided to gather
the hay from about 100 acres, allow
mg the remainder to go to seed and
gather the peas. At the prevailing
price of hay, Captain Whitaker will
probably received about $1,500 for hia
three months crop, and will have 30
acres wre for picking.
As soar as the hundred acres are
gathered. SaM and sold or stored
uaway the land will be inunodhtely
turned under by tractor for from 25
bo 100 acres of owta. By planting
large acreage of peas and oats, Cap
tain Whitaker flgurm that all of the,
Work can be done by machinery, and
it will not be neceaaary to have the
usual large investment in mules and
faint laborers. His land is now in
far better shape than when he began
in June, as poas enrich the eoit.
With the exception of employing
laborers to haul the pea vine hay
from the fields, he has had absolutely
noi assistance in planting and harvest-!

sight well worth Bering—ISO acres, a
solid farm—in pea vine hay.
It is mtemi-tinr to note what has
been done on this farm in this day

Whitaker this year, and will not
bother him next year if his present
plans are carried out
