The Cotton Growers ASsoci-
alton the Prime Factor in
Putting Price up to Eleven
Cents---All Farmers and
the Public Generally Urg-
ed to Join the Association
and to Stand by its Re-
quirements.

Mr.. Editor Cotton has gone
up to II cents. and the Cotton
Growers Associciation has been
the prime mover in bringing
about this desirable result. In
all probability it will go con
siderable higher, if the farmers
will hold awhile, and not put
too m uch Of it on the market at
once.
The farmers and planters
have it now in their power to
command good price for their
cotton, if they will only jim
the organization, stand togeth-
er, and carry out the res Olives Of
the organized body. 1t is the
best organization and ass"c cia
t1on that has ever been gotten
up in the interest Of the agri.
cultural business of the country.
Every farmer and planter should
join it promptly and stick to its
requirements. Some people say
it is good hing, and if they
belonged to it, thev would feel
themselves bound to adhere
strictly to its req quiremens. s.
To all such | will say, if it is a
beneficial organization. every
one ought, as good, patriotic
citizens, to belong to it. This
reminds me of what people say
who do not belong to the church
towit, that if they belonged
to the church they would not
do this and that evil thing.
Now ,he reply to al, this is,
that if a man THINKS that men,
bership in church is a good
thing, it his duty to join the
church and to adhere 10 the
teachings of the Christian re-
ligion. Indeed, | eli We it is
the duty of all classes of ocioty
to join and becom" men b rs of
the Cotton Growers .Associa
ton. The merchant, banker,
manufacturer, professional man
all ought to become mem.
bers ; all are interested in max
ing this great southern product
(cotton) bring a rcnumerative
price, because there is no an.
tagOnism between any classes
of citizens that can aIise out of a
fair price for the sale Of cotton.
Indeed it is to the interest Of all
classes that the price of cotton
should renumerate producer, ,a"d
then the price should be stable.
Let all Join the association
and stand together. We have
in the cultivation of cotton an
industry that no other people
on the face Of the earth have,
that can compete with us. The
association declares that no one
ought to sell cotton for less than
eleven cents, and let us see that
our people all get II cents, and
as much more as the market
will bring us rom time to time.
