Loading cotton at Memphlt, Tnn., cotton center of the south. -
King Cotton and his regime over the old south faces a new era as
a result of the recent perfection of the mechanical cotton-picker.
This invention threatens to revolutionize the social and economic
order of Dixie. More than half of the 3,000,000 laborers, most of
them colored, would be displaced by the invention. Invented by th
Rust brothers, bcrn and raised on a Texas cotton plantation, the
machine has demonstrated its ability to pick more cotton in seven
hours than could be gathered by a good hand-picker in three and a
half months. Tenant-farming would be eliminated and the last
vestiges of the old south disappear with the introduction of the
mechanical cotton-picker which will be put on the market this season.
Typical scenes such as shown above would vanish. e

"The plans for the building
which is to include a basement
have been drawn," McGilchrist
stated, "but no contracts will be
let until the finance campaign is
further along."
