Douglas Lowom
Tells Exchange
Club About Trip
Douglas Lovvorn was speaker for
the Exchange Club at the regular
meeting at the Inn last Friday.
Douglas was the Jones county re-
presentative on the tour made re-
contly by 4-H club boys ind he
told of tl?e trip. He was introduced
by Floyd Lynch of Anson, county
agent, who was also a guest of the
club. _
The group left Brown wood on
August 3, Douglas caid, and trav-
elled to Hot Springs and Little
Rock, Arkansas, crossed the Miss-
issippi river at Memphis, Tenn.,
and then through Nashville to Bol-
ling Green, Ky., went through the
Mammoth Cave, on to Louisville,
Ky., across the Ohio River into In-
diana, then to Indianapolis, then
Lake Michigan and Chicago. In
Chicago they enjoyed the sights
from a sight-seeing bus.
Then next went across Illinois to
Iowa and near Lisbon, Iowa, they
had the only accident of the trip
when in a heavy fog the bus plow-
ed into a curb, but no one was in-
jured. On the return trip they
went through Kansas City, Mo.,
the state of Kansas, Oklahoma
and back to Browmrood. One boy
from each of the 19 Countica in
District 7 made the trip.

ducted a short business session.

Cotton Examiners instead of by

ensed classers as in the paxti
Under the new regulation, when
cotton is delivered to the warehouse
for loan, samples will be drawn by
the warehouseman nnd shipped to
the nearest central classing office
maintained by the board of cotton
examiners. A final class will be
'placed upon the cotton’ and re
turned to the producer and the
loan will be based upon that class.
While the new system is intend
ed to benefit the producer, Stam-
ford men connected with the cot-
ton industry are fearful that con-
gestion, resulting1 in the delay of
loans, ’Will result in West Texas
during the peak of the season.
Thus far, only two central class-
ing offices have been established in
West Texas, The American was
informed. These are at Abilene and
Lubbock. Stamford samples will
go to The Abilene office, where it
is believed that facilities will be
entirely inadequate to handle the
number of samples that will pile in
from Central West Texas.
