An enthusiastic meeting with
talks on subjects of interest to
Delta County was enjoyed at the
annual bans net of Cooper Chamber
of .Commerce held at Hotel Cooper
Tuesday night.
Rube S. Wells, secretary-manag-
er cf the chamber, presided and in
> a humorous talk reviewed fame
of the achievements of the body.
He spoke of the improved variety'
of cotton grown with a better basis
for the staple in Cooper which on
an average exceeded the prioe of
other markets in this section. He
referred to the onion growers pro-
ject as a strong proposition and
admonished the people to be loyal
to home industry and merchants
and commended them for making
our bakery suocee by thir loyal
support.
Wm D. MoNaull, proprietor of
Cooper Hospital, was introduced.
He reported they had been crowd-
ed with patents and needed a
larger place which would be afford-
ed by the property which the City
of Cooper will Improve for a hos-
pital. Mr. MoNaull is a technician
and x-ray expert, having done lab-
oratory and x-ray work In Park-
ton Hospital at Dallas. Mrs. Mfc-
Naiull is a graduate nurse which
enables her to be of much service
In conducing the hospital.
The progress Delta County has
made in agriculture and stock-
raising during the last few years
was brought out by County Agent
J F. Green, who made the prin-
cipal address of the evening. He
spoke of Delta County being a
small county in area, only 264
square miles, but said from the
point of agricultural interest it
was not, as 127,000 acres of its
158.000 acres were under the plow,
there being very little waste land
In the county. The county pro-
duced lost Afewr nearly 32.000 bales
of cotton, 300,000 bushels of corn,
6.000 tons of grain sorghum. The
number of hogs in the county in-
creased 500 per cent tost; there
are more dairy cattle on more Del-
ta County farms than ever before,
and $25,000 worth of poultry prod-
ucts were sold from the farms of
the county last year. My. Green
spent two. days at Farmersvllle the
part fall studying the onion busi-
ness and he prdicted Delta County
Onion Growers Association would
succeed with their onions and
suggested1 they' could raise them on
the root-rot land where cotton
would not grow. ,
W S. Slough, successful farmer
living east of Cooper, said he
would plant an acre of onions as
a demonstration and expected' to
plant near the highway as a dem-
onstration. He invited Agent
Green to set out half of them as
a demonstration to which those
present agreed it was a fair pro-
position. Mr. Slough closed' his
balk by saying that he never went
away to buy anything that he could
buy in Coo)>er and urged others
practice the policy bo help local
merchants.
C. D. Thomas, local Texas Co-
agent, who came here from Pitts-
burg a few months ago, and Chas.
to succeed Ed Tucker as T. P. Jt
Rayburn, who came from Bonham
L. Co- manager, were introduced.
^ Mr. Rayburn sudd that he had
i never met finer and more friendly
people than in Cooper.
F. P. Salmon, who recently re-
turned to Cooper as manager of
Perkins Bros, store after a year
spent with the Commerce store,
praised Cooper and its Cotton
market which he said excels other
towns-
Henry Hurley, cotton seed breed-
er of Cooper, spake briefly of his
work. He is one of the best seed
breeders in the State and his im-
proved Hurley's Rowden is one of
the leading varieties in the State
and is becoming popular in many
sections outside of Delta County.
Judge J. T. Rountree was anoth-
er speaker and he asked the co-
operation of the people to assist
the county offici i Is In their efforts
bo succeed with the lean treasury.
He said he and others woud go to
Austin next week to appear before
the Highway Commission to ask
for the highway designation weet
to Pecan Gap. Judge Ely, he said,
had written that the road would
be built to Pecan Gap whether it
was built before the road to Ben
Franklin and Roxton or note
Bill Rotonett and R. H. Wallace,
successful farmers of Klondike,
were introduced and talked briefly.
T. P. Berry assistant postmas-
ter, was asked to forecast the eco-
nomic and political outlook, which
he did—how accurately time will
tell. . * «W!|
