THE EXPORT OF COTTON
PROMISES TO BE REVOLUTION.
IZED BY FARMERS UNION.
Steps Are Taken That Mean Direct
Connection Between Foreign
Mills and Growers.

Measures which bid fair to almost
reyOlutionize the present methods
Of exporting the cotton crop to the
foreign mills and spinners were rec
commended and heartily indorsed by
the Farmers Union national conven-
ton committee, composed of one man
from each cotton state, which met
in Memphis last week. To every
member of the Union will be sent an
agreement for him to sign and for
ward to the local secretary of the
Union, pIedging his Individual sup
port in a direct marketing of the
present cotton crop.
The committee strongly advocated
shipping direct to the foreign mills
and spinners, which they claimed
could easily be accomplished by fur
nishing the same business advant-
ages as the heavy exporter now gives
to the mills. The Union warehouses
which have been established through
out the south were the first step in
this direction, and the output
through these warehouses will be
u4SpOSeu Oh by the cotton cOmmlttee.
The growers have been asked to
pledge their cotton to them and the
sales will be apportioned among the
states according to the amount
pledged. This cooperation. which
has practically been pledged by every
member of the Union, means that
the market prices will no longer be
controlled by the spectators, and
competition among sellers will be
done away with.
1t was decided that an adjourned
meeting Will be held in Memphis on
Saturday, Aug. 29th., and that those
attending this meeting should go
from it to the meeting Of the ma
tional Union in Fort Worth, Texas.

THE POWER OF FARMERS
\ KEYNOTE TALK.

makes pretty good reading from al

ceive much consideration. 1t is as
follows:
The farmer holds the key with
which to regulate activity
After all the crops are sold this
year if every farmer should say to
himself, We'll, times are pretty
hard; l guess I viii put my money
in the bank and wait till next year
before I buy anything with it, the
stagnation thereby caused would pro-
duce an industrial depression, the
consequence OF which would be sim
ply appalling In the end the farm
eTs of the country would suffer ter
ribly from loss Of their greatest
market, which is filling the stomachs
of the millions of factory workers
who make the things the farmers
use
On the other hand. if every farm
er would realize that his own saliva
ton depends on restoring prosperity
to the entire country and to all class
es of citizens the farmers would
have in their own hands the power

from any continuance of the depres-
sion.
If the movement could be made
general with farmers, as soon as this

upon a great movement for farm i'm
proyement and the replenishment of
all farm supplies, right now, it would
not be sixty days before the hard
times would be over.

ARE IMPORTING PINE TREES
MILLION SEEDLINGS FROM GER
MANY FOR NEW YORK.
A Considerable Stretch of Barren
Waste in That State VIII Be
Clothed With Forest.


Upward of 100000 pine trees
have been imported this year from
Germany to help renew the Adiron-
dack forests The purchase will
make it possible within a few years
to clothe a considerable stretch of
these mountains with a forest made
in Germany which will lend a
curiously foreign aspect to the sec
ton. American forests as a rule are
made up Of mixed species; the uni
formity of the black forest of Ger
many will offer a curious contrast.
This importation is part of a gen
eral plan to reforest the denuded
sections of the Adirondacks and 9th
er waste places throughout the state
inaugurated in 1902, which, while
changing the appearance of many
sections, will eventually be the
source of enormous income
OF the German forest brought to
New York 100000 trees were trans
plants, as they are called, which
were Immediately planted in the de-
nuded sections of the Adirondacks.
The land thus renewed has been laid
bare either by cutting the timber or
by forest fires. In addition some
$50, 900 seeding pines but two years
old were imported, which were set

where they will be allowed to attain
at least one more years growth be-
fore being set out. Eventually New
YOrk's forests will be raised entirely
in her own nurseries. Within the last
year 100000 trees were planted on
the denuded lands; next year more
than 100000 trees will be set out
1t is estimated that between the state
and the people there should be at
least 20,000,000 trees planted every
year for a long period to keep up the
present supply of wood and protect
the water sources.
In it's earliest stages one of these

begin life in narrow gardens and
dollhouse beds There are at pres
ent four nurseries for prOpagating
forest tree seedlings under state con
troll Each nursery has an enclosed
area of about two acres. The nur-
series are situated in Franklin coun-
ty, in the heart of the AdirOndacks.
Only pine, spruce and larch trees are
raised in these nurseries.
Forest trees are by no means an
expensive crop to raise The Ger
man trees cost $1.62 a thousand, de-
livered in New York. They were
imported free of duty, but by the
time they had reached the Adiron-
dacks they had cost $2.65 a thou
sand, or little more than 0ne-fourth
of one cent for a tree The trees are
usually set out at intervals of six
feet in rows six feet apart thus re-
curing about 200 trees to the acre.
The average cost of renewing these
forests has been found to average a
trtfle more than s. an acre.
The return to the state on the
present investment of tree planting
promises to be enormous An acre
of waste land costs about IS. Such
land may be planted with pine or
spruce seeding with 100 to the
acre at an expense Of $1365 an acre.
An acre will yield a product by the
necessary thinning of $1,000. When
the remaining trees are so years old
they would yield on the stump at
least $1,000.
