County approves cotton grader for Robeson County

The Board of County Commissioners authorized up to 400 to hire a government cotton grader for Robeson County. O J McConnell and L E Blanchard arranged sampling and mailing gear, with the grader based in Fayetteville to inform farmers of cotton grade and staple length. Proponents note a three year net saving of 1 15 per bale. Only about a quarter of the appropriation may be needed this year due to a short crop. Two minor court actions followed with a 15 year old charged with vagrancy released to the farm and Ethel Huff paying costs for firing a pistol within city limits.
