The cotton growers were quite
unanimous In their stand for 10 cent
cotton at their recent meeting az
Atlanta. That Is $1,000 per bale.
This would insure good return on
the cotton crop which is little short
this year while for several years the
demand has grown rapidly exceeding
all previous records.
The price 10 cents may look little
high at first but when one considers
the price OF cotton goods il is clear
the price there has already advanced.
II seems now to lie lagrely a question
Of who shall get the profit.
In commenting oa this situation
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian says:
THE raw cotton is surely worth
s-5 per bale. when the 5000 yards Of
calico which the spinlers make out
OF Il sells for S2lO Including the s75
as the cost of raw cotton. the manu-
facture of the staple into 5000 yards
of calico only costs sl17 Now. if the
spinner can find market for his
calico at such a price as will give him
s2l0 on each bale of cotton why can

price OF raw cotton at l5 cents And

buyer. let him pay 10 cents pc"
