while the Farmers Union stood firm
at their original set price Of II cents
and won out on this price. And
again at New Orleans when the Cot
ton Association jumped the other way
and named Is cents the Farmers
Union stood firm upon her pledge
and said no! our foundation upon
which our organization rests, our
character and reputation for fairdeal-
ings and our good judgment as to
what is a fair price for our cotton.
In the face of cents cotton in 1904
the Farmers Union pledged them
selves to stand up for 10 cents, and
they who kept the faith got their
price. The Farmers Union made the
price Of II cents for our last crop and
have stood firm at the stake. It made
no difference which way the wild cat
jumped, the Farmers Union stood
firm upon the rock bottom price of II
cents and got all above this figure
that she could. This record for good
judgment, tlrm convictions ana good
faith should drive confidence into
all Union men as well as all others
that hereafter when the Farmers
Union make price for their cotton
that said prices are in the first place
fair and reasonable price, and that
the oldest and original price-makers
for our cotton-The Farmers Union
have in their power to maintain
these prices even under greater pres
sure than before, because the Union
is now better fortified than ever be-
fore with more warehouses of their
own, more homemade supplies and
more than six hundred thousand men,
bers in our ranks and still growing at
a rapid rate.

More About That Farmers Home
Made Cotton Warehouse.


The Importance of this cotton ware
house business to farmers we think
justifies our devoting considerable
space on this subject now in order to
get in shape for a big effort in build
ing these houses as soon as the far
mers are through their crop work.
There is no doubt about this, that
if all the loss in weights and damages
on cotton III one season were bulked
i'll each cotton county, the loss sus-
tanned here would, pay for at least
one small warehouse in each import
ant county in the south.
Whilst farmers are getting together
on a cooperative plan OH the cotton
warehouse they arc at tile same time
becoming educated of other lines of
business; this coming together on this
warehouse business will teach farmers
how to get better school houses,
churches and better roads and mail
facilities, and, above all, it will teach
farmers that there is strength, and
power in organized efforts, while in
dividual efforts of our strongest
men unorganized is nothing more than
the struggle of weakling.
We did not state in our other arti-
Gle that the specifications there given
were roekbottom as to the cheapest
plans on all bought material.
The prices OH cement, for instance,
ranges in different places all the way
from $3.50 to $2.75 per barrel. Where
cement has to be shipped any con-
siderable distance over the rail the
highest grade cement is the kind to
use.
Instead of slopening the roof all
one way it is perhaps best to make
the cone or high part in the middle,
sloping the roof SO feet each way.
The difference in the insurance
rates will not Justify sprinllling or
water tank arrangements for less than
a three section warehouse.
Cost of water tank and equipment
is about $4,000. Additional cost Of
piping for each section added.
Where automatic sprinkling AZ
rangements are to be used the space
above the bales should be at least one
foot more than mentioned in our first
plans; that is, the lowest part of walls
should. be nine feet instead Of eight
feet.
Remember, also, that after one sec
ton has been put up that only the
cost of one wall-no cost Of machine
has to be paid for each additional
section, the roofing, ends, &C., being
the same on all sections.

there intending to go to Alamosa. Col
orado. and had his trunk checked to

Albuquerque and save expense. His
trunk Is therefore In Alamosa and his
check Is missing. Baca says he
