The Cades Ginning Cc. has
recently over-hauled its machinery,
putting in new saws, new
brushes and one new gin, also
one electric dynamo. This gives
them a complete, up-to date
large system with electric lights
to run at night. The manager
<Ji LLiis giuuu y taituiaics iu
turn out a nicely packed bale
every ten minutes. This will ,
give one hundred and forty-four
bales in twenty-four hours.
The manager feels confident of
taking care of all old customers
with qui te a lot of new ones.
We have here eight cotton
seed buyers, all anxious to do
business. This has always been
one of the best seed markets in
the county and the boys say 6he
will exceed herself this season.
We have four bale cotton buyers,
who are in direct touch with
the leading exporters of the
county. The first bale of cotton
sold here will probably sell for
something- like 15 cents, while
we think seed will open at seventeen
or eighteen dollars per
ton.
It appears that our town has
been watching and waiting for
several years, and the time has
now come when this monotony
is broken. She now passes to
the front and expects to run
neck to neck" with her sister
towns. Hereafter watch Cades!
