It seemed a great accomplish-
ment for the Deutschland to come
over with a cargo, but the U-53 not
only came over but put a number
of ships out of business while over,
ron down the price of cotton, and
skipped out all in two or three days.

Nearly everybody in Jlimer ap_
precites the fact that Giltner has a
daily paper, we believe and the
most of the Gilmer people are taking
it, but nearly every Gilmerite has
some relatives of close friend that is
a former resident of the town or
county, that is interested in Gilmer,
that wonld be glad to have the pap-
er, if they knew about it. Why
don’t you subscribe for it and send
it to that friend or relative.
It will help boost our tow, and
give pleasure to th a relative or
friend that you thus compliment
We would send them sample copies

automobile catalogue in its attrac-

ONLY FOREIGN CONSUM-
ERS AFFECTED BY LOAN
MINIMUM ON COTTON
“Cotton is the only agricul-
tural product of which this na-
tion has a world monopoly. For
the past century, we have
clothed the world and nothing
can transpire to take this task
from us for at least another half
century. The Lord made the
south a cotton country and He
made cotton an exclusive south-
ern product- No legislation can
give universal help to the South
unless it helps the cotton pro
ducer.
“We produce two-thirds of the
world’s cotton supply. The gov-
ernment by protecting a twelve
cent minimum loan on cotton
can enable the farmers to fix a
price which foreign countries
must pay for cotton. The gov-
ernment would never be called
upon to advance any money on
cotton under this plan for the
market price would always stand
much above the loan minimum
figure.
“When we increase the price
. of cotton, we levy tribute upon
the foreign consumers which is
the greatest attainment in state
craft.”—Henry N. Pope.

chore of sawing wood. It is ohe
job that seemed never to be ended.
With the advent of the gasoline
engine, the work of sawing, not only
for farm consumption but for com-
vnercial purposes, has been changed
Ao one of great fascination, if not
pleasure, in comparison with its
former drudgery.
