Cotton Has Advanced
{. II. jenkins Shows What Can
be Accomplished by Organ
lzatiou

Brownwood, Texas, Feb. 81
The following signed statement
has been issued by @. Fl. jenkins
of the executive committee of the
Southern Cotton Growers assocl.
alton:
:'Since the first call was issued
for the farmers to organize for the
purpose of securing 25 per cent
reduction of acreage and fertill,
zers, cotton has advanced 50. so
per bale.
" Upon the basis of 1000,
bales being still in the hands of
the producers, this means a gain
of S10,O00,000 to the cotton
growers of the south. If the
farmers and business men of the
south will stand by the pro-
gramme agreed upon at New Or
leans convention, this gain will
amount to $4O,OOO,O 200 on the
crop IN land by June 1, and the
gain on the next crop win be at
least S125, 100000. Can we not
afford to pay something both in
labor and money for such con-
summation as thisl
"The essentials are reduction
IN the next crop and holding the
present crop. The present crop
cannot he held economically with
out warehouses; therefore, my
advice is to build warehouses and
do it now. Let the farmers and
business men of every county get
together ut once and raise the
necessary funds to build ware
houses.
