Plant Less Cotton.


President Potts of the Louis
mna Division of the Southern
Cotton Association has sent out
the following letter to the cotton
growers of Louisiana:
Natchitoches, La,
Feb. L, 1907.
The great convention of the
Southern Cotton Association held
at Birmingham recently passed a
resolution asking the cotton
growers of the South to plant
less cotton in 1907 than was
planted in 1906, and also asking
that the land so taken out of
cotton be devoted to corn and
other food-crops.
There can be no doubt of the
wisdom of this suggestion. We
must never forget how badly our
enemies punished US for making
that big cotton crop in 1904 and
we must never forget that they
are just waiting for us to plant
and raise another big cotton crop
when they will bring all of their
power down upon US and try to
Istarve us again. We know that
| if we make a little less cotton
and get IL cents for it that there
Is more money to us than to make
a full crop and sell it for 10 cents
or less and can we afford to take
the chances?
Don't be afraid to raise plenty
of everything that you can con-
sumo at home and a little less
cotton when you know it Is to
your interest to do it. 1t viii
soon be time now to plant another
cotton crop and for US to plant
too much means that our enc
mics will take every advantage of
us and do their best to buy oar
cotton at their own prices next
fall.
If there is no organization of
the Southern Cotton Association
in your parish put your shoulder
to the wheel and organize it. 1t
is a duty that you owe to yourself
as grower of cotton and you
can better afford to spend a little
lof your time working for the
price than to spend all of your
time trying to raise more cotton
and make cheap cotton by SO
doing. Use more brain and less
muscle is the way to get money
out of your cotton crop and you
will find working for the price
easier than working to make more
cotton. The people all over the
South are now rallying to the
support of the Cotton Associa-
ton and predict bright future
for the man who grows cotton
for u living for 1907.
Yours truly,
PAUL M. PoTTs,
| Pres. La. Division. S. @. A,

Neglected Colds Threaten Life.
