1.-The cotton growers of the South,
through and with the assistance of
their organization, the Southern
Cotton association, are slowly but
surely winning the greatest COM
nercial battle ever known to the
world.
son September 9TH the associ-
alton advised the farmers to ask IL
cents for their cotton, as cpndltions
fully warranted that price. Many
fixed that price and sold for it.
"Now, the fact that the crop is
very short has been established be-
yond the shadow of a doubt, and on
ly small remnant of that left un-
sold, also that the markets are bare
of dry goods with future prices
formally advanced, cotton mills are
loaded down with contracts and Or
ders for goods for several mouths
ahead, and only with about one
half enough cotton in sight to fill
them. Hold your cotton for Is
cents.
Hundreds of thousands of bales
are being pledged to the Southern
Cotton association for Is cents,
enough to forceithe price toits value
