TO THE COTTON GROWER
Appeal Is Made to H o l d
For More Than Meat and
Bread Price.

The Southern Cotton AssocI-
alton has fixed 10 cents as the
lowest price at which any one
should sell their cotton this fall
and winter. Can you doubt our
getting this price or better if we
tryA ALI we need to make cotton
bring 10 cents or even more is
the help of the people who have
the cotton. Do not sell any of
your cotton for less than 10
cents and use all the influence
you have to prevent others sell
ing for less than 10 cents. Every
bale that our enemies buy for
lessthan 10 cents is used as club
with which to beat down the price
of the .unsold cotton.
Remember that 10 cents is. the
meat and bread line and that our
enemies will starve us if they can.
Stand like men and work like
beavers to prevent our enemies
crossing the meat and bread line.
Let us show them for once that
though-they have starved US in
the past they cannot do it again.
They are now spending thousands
of dollars telling you in the news
papers how the farmers are fall
ing over each other to sell their
cotton at the starvation price of
8 1-2 or 9 cents, but they never
tell you about how many of us
who are determined to get 10
cents or fight them to a finish.
They never tell you about the
thousands of farmers all over the
country who are daily hauling
their cotton back home and stor-
ing it because they do not get 10
cents for it. Our enemies always
fill the newspapers with lying
publications intended to scare US
into selling our cotton below its
value. You will get ten cents for
your cotton even if you make
half fight, do not doubt it.

mixed with snuff. The proper
ton is five cents worth of strong
snuff to a gallon of coal oil.
Two gallons of the mixture, ac-
cording to Foster, is sufficient to
cover an acre of cotton. 1t should
be sprinkled or sprayed on the
cotton late in the evening. He
says it will not injure the cotton
and asks that a thorough trial be
made of it, as he believes he has
solved the problem.

cit is 900 years since the fail
ure of bank in China" said a
bank examiner. "More than 900
years ago in the reign of Hi
Hung, bank failed. Hi Hung
had the failure investigated and
to his indignation found it had
been due to reckless and shady
conduct on the part of the direc-
tors and the president. Hi Hung
at once issued an edict that the
next time u bank failed the heads
of its presidents and directors
were to be cut off. This edict,
which has never been revoked,
has made China's banking insti-
tutions the safest in the world"
