To Cotton Producers:
 The cotton acreage and use of con- mercial fertilizers under cotton for 1905 has been materially reduced under that of 1904. The farmers throughout the entire cotton belt have made their pledges good and production will be restricted so that the surplus of 1904 can go into the crop of 1905, and both be sold at good prices to meet the de. mands of consumption for 1906 But the surplus ot l904 must be held by the farmers, because If sold, it will be used next fall to depreSs the price of the new crop Cotton is now being sold too freely. With victory already in our grasp 1t is fol ' to weaken our present strong position by throwing all the cotton that has teen so tenaciously held, upon depressed market. You can't get I'd of the surplus by selling il, bat you permit your enemies io strongly tortity tbeir posit oAs for the iNGuiE. i tn iAlfI1 nave SDtu ltltii goods ahead until l917. Tha crop To be grown in 1905 has already been sold by both exporters and sp;nners. You have not been consulted, tut you are tue owners of the cotton. Plans are maturing to assist you in holding the cotton you now have until faireT prices ale offered. Make the splendid fight which y0n have made since De- cembeI 3rd, 1901, one of the greatest victories of modern mes, by absolute ly tying up the present spot market and ht lding the surplus of l90i i'll your own possession. Do n0e weaken un- der present bear pressure, but stand S.tadfdst and true to yonrstlge your families and your country. You have reduced the cotton acreage and use of suano for 1905, now hold your cotton.
