LARGE ATTENDANCE
FROM EVERY SECTION OF THE
soUTH-REDUcTloN OF ACRE
AGE AND USE OF COMMERCIAL
FERTILIZERS THE PARAMOUNT
QUESTIONS.

New Orleans, Jan. 24.-By a unani-
nous vote at the close Of its session
today the Southern Interstate Cotton
convention, the largest and most rep
resentative that has ever gathered
in the south, declared that reduction
of acreage and use of commercial
fertilizers are paramount questions
to be considered by the convention,
and must be settled before any other
business is undertaken. 1875 delegates
registered, but this number does not
represent the full attendance. Har-
vie Jordan, of Georgia, was made per-
manent chairman of the conXention.
Other important questions besides
the reduction of acreage to be dis
cussed by the convention are: How
to tie up and take care of the surplus
of this crop and remove it from the
market until next fall, and hold the
balance of the crop absolutely in
possession of the farmers until prices
advance to normal conditions. Ar
rangements for a system of bonded
warehouses under local control, and
organization of the cotton producers
throughout the south for relief and
protection in the future.
