Importance, if they are going to

if they are going to continue to

act like school boys instead of
men of mature judgement: then
we would as well make up our

TOBACCO TIDINGS.
81 r. 7. WHEELER.
JOIN THE MAIN ORGANIZATION

We have been informed tha
there is a movement on foot, ir
a certain community, in this
county, to start a neighborhooC
or barn pool. We are told that
it is being done on account OF
some little dissatisfaction that
grew out of the delivery last
winter.
We want to acknowledge that
there are some little disadvant-
ages in pooling topacco. There
is, however one great benefit.
That of being able to get the
worth Of your crop. This can
only be done, however, by get
ting practically all of one type in
the same organization. 1t can
never be accomplished by sever
al small pools. 1t cannot be ac-
complished by two pools. By
joining those small pools you
have all of the disadvantages of
the organization and none of the
benefits. By doing this you play
into the hands Of the buyers by
dividing up the crop. Cause
competition among the sellers,
make it harder for the main or
ganization to sell, and lower the
price of the whole crop.
Some growers seems to have
the idea that it is the right thing
to pool but thatit make S but lit
tie or no difference where you
pool. This is a very erroneous
idea. To be effective there must
be but one organization for each
type of tobacco. In order for it
to do so it must control practic-
ally all of that type. The Stem
ming District Tobacco Associat-
ion in the only organization in
the district that has ever pooled
more than 8 percent of the crop.
it has controlled more than rs
/ ercent for several years. No
