FINE MILLINERY
ARTISTIC HATS
wmetm
TO BE SEEN AT THE STORE
OF MISS GEORGIA
LIGHT.
Miss Light has been studying
in the wholesale millinery houses
where, in addition to the regular
line of work, she made a special
study of color combinations and
tailoring. As tailor made hats
and a blending of many colors
are to play the greatest feature
of the season in millinery, ladies
will readily realize the impor-
tance of this work. Every lady
has a special invitation to call
and take advantage of the best
opportunity ovor offered in Jacks-
Gin cotton tops j boro to get the prettiest and
Today one of the greatest de-
mands of thoughtful people is
pure and healthful food. They
begin at last to realize that
many of the ills of the
human family result from
cheap adulterated food. E. D.
Bradfield is making a specialty
of selecting his groceries for their
quality, and now he has the best,
purest, and most carefully
selected stock in the Southwest;
and because his groceries are Iff
good people must not get the idea ff
that they are expensive. Thi3 j ff
house is here to supply everyone j ff
who wants the best. Here can ! ff
be found all kinds of fruits and ff
vegetables, the most highly ap-
proved .cereal foods, the best
grades of plain crackers and bis-
cuits, fancy crackers, wafers and
dainty confections for luncheons
and afternoon teas, picnics, and
in fact all occasions. He can fit
you out with a box to run a big
thresher, a big ranch, or a dainty
afternoon tea or picnic.
To show that his goods are all
fresh, which is of great impor-
tance, his pickles now on sale are
from this year’s growth, and ev-
erything else is in line with these.
Here is also to be found the fa-
mous Kingfisher flour which has
become so popular; coffees and
spices from the East Indies, J. A.
Folger’s Golden Gate high grade
goods, fine syrups, candies, the
best canned goods, and anything
else you want in the grocery line.
All are invited to call and try
this stock that is selected for its
quality. Farmers are especially
invited to make this place their
headquarters during the fall and
winter. These goods are bought
to sell at prices that will recom-
mend them to all in and out of
Jack county, and Jacksboro is
certainly proud of the growth of
this house in all its departments,
and of the fact that it is contin-
ually enlarging to suit the de-
mands as they arise. The propri-
etor is reaching out to draw
trade from new territory and
will certainly succeed if superior
goods and right prices will do it,

300,000 members of the union.
We can now depend upon the
effective co-operation of all the
members of the union, as the
new president of the union, Mr.
Calvin of Paris, Texas, has writ-
ten me encouraging co-operation
to more completely win out in
the fight ahead. We also have
pledged the active co-operation
of the membership of the Amer-
ican Society of Equity and the
Farmers’ Alliance of North Car-
olina in enforcing the demand for
the minimum price of 11c. This
makes the position of the produc-
ers almost impregnable, and with
all of these powerful farmers’
organizations working in harmo-
ny for mutual protection I feel
safe in saying that the fight can
and will be easily won. Sell little
cotton in September and October.
Give the mills a chance to exhaust
present supplies, which can be
done in six weeks, and then we
can easily dictate terms and win
another big victory. Sell no mid-
dling cotton for less than 11c.

Harvie Jordan, since returning
to Atlanta from the meeting of
10 to .121-2 the executive committee of the
Southern Cotton Association at
Asheville, N. C., ha3 issued a
etter to the cotton, growers of
thq South, in which he says:
The question of fixing a min-
imum price of this crop was the
matter of greatest interest to the
people and country at large., The
eyes of the whole cotton world
were centered on Asheville dur-
ing the 6th and 7th of September,
while the executive committee
was in session.
The price finally agreed upon
after long and tedious delibera-
tion was 11c, basis middling, at
all interior points in the South.
The condition of the crop up to
Aug. 25 was found to be 73.03
per cent, as compared with a
condition of 84 per cent for the
same period a year ago. The es-
timated yield of the crop as re-
ported by over 15,009 correspond-
ents from all the cotton growing
counties indicated a yield this
season of 9,588,133 bales, as com-
pared with a crop of 13,600,000
bales last year. Letters from
farmers all over the belt advised
a minimum price all the way
from 10c to 12 l-2c, some figur-
ing as high as 15c. But the final
result was He, and farmers all
over the South will be expected
to stand firmly together this fall
and winter to maintainlbat price.
By determined effort prices can
be forced up above He later on
and farmers should determine
now to move their crops slowly
and not rush the market. The
only way we can secure and main-
tain our price is to refuse to sell
for less and make the buyers
come to our figures. If cotton is
thrown on the market and sold
anyway, it will be difficult to
force prices up until much later
in the season. Let those who are
able and can hold back do so, and
thereby help those who are
forced to sell to meet their ma-
turing debts and obligations with
the supply merchants and guano
dealers. Bankers will be glad to
advance from 8c to 9c a pound on
cotton in storage and thus assist
in financing the situation. We
