TRYING TO CONTROL
THE COTTON CROP,
STATE ASSOCIATIONS HELD GOOD
MEETING
To Cooperate with Other Stntra.-D DeIe
CATION will be Sent to the National
Convention In Macon this
Month.
(The State, 1st.)

The Cotton Growers association
of South Carolina met last night IN
the county court house and after a
thorough discussion of the situation
determined to push the work of or
ganizing the farmers Of South Caro-.
lima SO as to control the cotton crop
in cooperation with the other cotton
growing States. The association also
decided to send full delegation to
the meeting Of the national associa.
tion this month.
There were about SO farmers pres
ent when the meeting was called to
order by the president, j. @. Will
born. The secretary, j. r. Blake.
was at his post.
MIR. Wilborn referred to the meet
ing Of the cotton seed oil men recent
y held here, at which they decided
to combine for the purpose of reduc
ng the price Of seed. He said it
was determined to pay $13 per ton
for seed, which is 10 cents per bush
e], while the former price was thirty
cents per bushel. He said the only
way to fight such organizations as
this was to meet organization with
organization. Mr. Wilborn then ad-
dressed the meeting as follows:
Gentlemen of the Convention: Tho
State Convention of Cotton growers
met at Greenwood September 18th,
1900. It was then decided after ma.
ture deliberation to organize State
organization and officers were duly
appointed for ono year until Septem.
Der IL, 1900.
1t was decided to compactly or
ganize each county in this State with
view OF getting a moro accurate re-
port of ginning end marketing of
the cotton, and to interchange views
and information from all the cotton
States, for the purpose of obtaining
fair and just prices for our cotton
and cotton seed products. Upon my
suggestion an adjournment Of tho
Cotton Growers Convention was had
to meet in Columbia during Fair
week at my call: therefore I named

DR. j. p. Stcppe Of Spartn.burg
SAID You could got fow men in an

You may talk about trusts and com
blnatlons in tho north, but wo have
ono hero among tho mill mon.
What wo need is an intelligent ag-
ricultural class who will raiso cotton
as a surplus crop.
Mr.. j. r. Blake sad thoy had an
organization and tho thing to do WAS
to perfect this organization by coun-
ties and appoint delegation to at
tend tho National Cotton Growers
convention in Macon. Uutil the or
gnniz''ion is thoroughly perfected
they are not in position TO act upon
any sugg'stions. IIo then offered
tho following resolution:
"licsolved. That tho executive
committees perfect the organization
OF the various counties and that tho
chhIr appoint delegation of ono
from each congressional district 10
represent tho cotton growers con-
vention of South Carolina in tho
convention Of tho National Cotton
Growers association, which meets at
Macon on November Goth"
This resolution was eventually
adopted, but not until several had
spoken.
Mr.. j. X. Thompson, of Liberty
Hill, discussed at some length tho
situation, laying stress upon the lien
law and arguing that tho need is di-
versiijcd farming

with tho cotton growers to organize,
in order that they might the more
intelligently plant and mar4at the
crop.
Many Of you remember tho inter
State Convention that I called to
meet in Atlanta December, 1897,
and the great disappointment we
FELT at tho policy of delay that was
then shown. A decrease of acreage
was thon urged, and from that day
to this the individual effort of tho
Intelligent cotton grower has been to
raise his supplies for his farm at
home, thereby decreasing the acre

and hominy plan-mako the farm
self supporting, raise cotton rs the
surplus crop. Do this and wo will
have tho greatest country in tho
world. Do this and the country
home will again reach its high Eluce
and regard in the minds of the youth.
The country homo should be the
happiest and most Independent place
in the world. A kind providence
has aided us, in demonstrating to
the most skeptical mind that wo
have been raising too much cotton.
We today stand'in better condi-
ton to manage the cotton situation
than at any time since the war of
1860 G5. We have assembled here
tonight to devise the best ways and
means for the future handling of our
cotton and cotton seed products on
the market. A change in tho man
nor Of marketing this great money
crop is absolutely demanded. The
present system of selling gives tho
advantage to the buyer and leaves
the individual producer absolutely
rs slay in the hands Of the potter.
Let us agree to have say in selling
our products.
We propose to obtain within our
own ranks and for tho protection of
tho producer correct statistical infor.

ton OF the cotton crop prior to and

Fellow citizens, such is not youl

ness Of Rob Roy is not even in vogue
when they tako our cotton seed.
The secretary, j. r. Blake, then
read tho minutes Of tho last mcot.
ing, which wero approved.
Mr.. j. II. McCalla Of Abbovillo
was first to address tho chair. Ho
agreed with the obj jocts Of the meet
ing, but did not SEQ how anything
conld DO dono unless tho Southern
farmers agreed to control tho output
Of cotton.
Congressman A. G. Latimer said
he had never soon anything practical
in point and had heard nothing prac-
tical tonight. Unless there was somo-
thing definite in view it is useless to
organize.
Mr.. II. M. Cross said there was no
good in an organization unless tho
lion law were repealed
This did not create any sensation.
Mr.. S. Fl. McGhoe of Greenvillo
said the farmers could not control
tho situation alone. Thoy must have
tho co cooperation Of business men and
bankors, and he beloved that even
the cotton mill men would join thom.
They had done so in Georgia, and in

jcct is to tako the crop ont Of tho

Congressman Latimer said tn

FIXING PRICE.
The Association being in posses
sion Of thcso facts and knowing the
amount Of cotton to be produced,
based upon tho most reliable stats.
tics, will DO in position to fix a fair
price for raw material delivered at
ports. Before fixing tho price, how
over, we propose TO find out the true
amount Of American cotton required
Tor consumption, and tho price Of
tho finished fabric olfered--with cor
rect information Of amount Of cotton
to be harvestcd-the number Of
bales required for consumption by
mills, the price Of cotton goods, and
it will be an easy matter to deter
mine q fair price for raw material.
OBTAINING THE PRICE.
10 get a just prico from tho buyer
Of our cotton, it will be essential to
furnish the supply commensurate
with the demand. This can only bo
done by marketing the crop through
longer period Of time and furnish
ing spinners with stock as needed.
Here is where we seek and are cnti.
tied TO the aid of the banker. Cot
ton properly housed and insured is
rs good security as a government
bond. We now have IN opportunity
Of becoming complete masters of the
situation. There will bo no surplus
carried over till next year. The mills
in all parts of tho world are short of
cotton. Never has there existed n
greater demand for cotton goods
Tho mills must have raw cotton,
which will bo il our possession, and
if wo know and demand it's true value
it will bo paid. Tho world is now
face to faco with a cotton famine, If
demands keep pace with the last

degenerated in size and quality. and dur
ing the early COS were generally dubbed
"brOncho" and ''Cayuse." They were also
called Cow or Maverick horses, not
withstanding the fact that some excel

These herds Of millions of half wild
horses soon became an absolute nuisance
In 1895 the idea Of getting rid of the
horses by advertising them In Europe
with the intention of disposing Of them
on the hoof If possible. occurred to q
number Of Western hOrsemen. IF this
plan would not work. the projectors
planned to have the horses sliced up and
served in steaks to the Frepchmeu, or 90
sausages to the Germans. In 1886 several
train loads were shipped on the hoof 10

Como and Wildwood.
Como park Is proving the Mecca for

selections both popular and classical.
The announcement of the opening of
the musical season at Wildwood is sure
to please a great many. Last summer
the Twin City Mandolin club established
itself strongly in the popularity of Wild
wood visitors, and it Is safe to predict
like reception the present year, es-
pecially as the club has been In constant
rehearsal all winter and has a. repertoire
Of new selections for presentation A de-
cided Improvement IN the car service on
the Wildwood line Is promised. In honor
of the opening of the season at Wildwood
Prof. Swanson will present his augmented
