FUTURE SALES OF COTTON
Condemned IN RESOLUTIONS
PASSED BY FARMERS IrNJON
OF TERRELL COUNTY.

The Farmers Union of Terrell
county is opposed to the practice of
Selhng cotton in the spring for de-
livery in the fall, and at a meet
ing in Bronwood Saturday passed
resolutions cOndemning it. The res
buttons, which were unanimously
adopted, are as follows:
Believing that the selling of cot
ton for future delivery is one of the
most hurtful of schemes to the pro-
ducers, be it resolved:
lst. That the Farmers Union of
Terrell County condemns in the
strongest terms the selling of cotton
futures, a practice which is engaged
in by some farmers to the detriment
of themselves and the growers of
cotton generally.
"2nd. That we ask non-Union
men to cooperate with us in our
efforts to market our cotton to the
best interests of the producers.
"3rd. That these resolutions be
printed in The Dawson News, and
all papers in sympathy with them
and the interests of the farmers be
requested to copy them"
Brentwood Thanked.
The News has been requested to
thank the people of Bronwood in be-
half of the Union for their generous
hospitality on the occasions of the
two meetings held in that town. Es-
pecially do the delegates appreciate
the sumptuous dinners that were
prepared by the ladies. The Union
also desires to acknowledge appre-
citation of the kindness of the board
Of trustees in rendering the school
building for the meetings.
The meeting Saturday was one of
the best and most interesting the
Union has held in a long while. Mr.
B. j. Wooten, an official of the state
organization, was present and made
a stirring address.
1t has not been decided where the
next county meeting will be held.
Secretary G. F. Smith will give the
local Unions notice in due time.
