C.N. Roberts who owns his own farm near Roseville, brought his cotton to the Lassiter gin in Knightdale, Wake County, North Carolina. This gin which is operated by Mr. Faison has ginned only two hundred and fifty bales of cotton this season and doesn't expect much more. The boll weevil got most of the cotton in that section. Because of the tobacco market holiday all the picking and ginning of cotton was finished very early this year
