These figures are full and will
rather be over than under the crop.
Tho demand for cloth is good and
sales are made at full figures.
Spinners are staying out. OF the
market, hoping to force the price OF
cotton still lower, believing that the
bulk Of the crop will be forced upon
the market by November 1 and sold
at a sacrifice.
Now is the time to market your
cotton as slowly as possible. You
must meet this stay-out Of the mar
ket policy Of the spinners by staying
out Of the market yourself. Don't
offer bale for sale that you can. pos
sibly hold. warehouse your cotton
and borrow money on it, If you must,
to pay your debts, but don't sell. II
the south will follow this policy, you
will, in my opinion, see Is cents cot
ton by January I, but If you rush it
on the market and have it sold at
forced sale, you will, in my opinion
SEQ it sell at or below II cents.
If this crop is marketed slowly
you will, in my opinion, see an as
cending market, until Is cents is
reached. Use business judgment in
marketing your cotton; the crop is
short, below a supply for the spin
dies for the next IL months; there Is
no use in making your losses still
greater by sacrificing your cotton.
The following is President Dabbs's
letter to the farmers OF the State:
To the Farmers of South Carolina:
Never before that can recall have
we had better prospects Of good
prices for cotton. Sixty days ago
cotton sold at 13 1-2 cents at inter-
ior points. All of a sudden without
rhyme or reason" the market broke
ard It continued to 90 down until
10 1-2 cents was reached in the To-
cal markets. Not having the desired
effect OF stampeding the farmers like
It has in the past, We see it steadily
going up. Each day the "wiseacres"
say it will break tomorrow. Each
day they say Liverpool should come
down six or seven points. Each day
sees the report that Manchester con-
tinues to buy at higher prices than
can be paid on this side. What does
it all mean?
If it means anything, it means that
cotton is in demand; that organiza-
ticn IS telling or that tnere is fear
OF it; that the farmers, the merchants
and the bankers need Dut to pull to-
gether and we will see 15-cent cot
ten for two-thirds Of this crop. 1t
also means that they are working to-
gether more slowly and the price is
yours.
We rejoice in the activity display
ed in organizing chambers Of COM
merce in the towns and cities Of the
South. We rejoice in such "boosters
trips'' as Richmond Susr pulled of,
and as Sumter will pull off in a few
months. We rejoice at the hopeful
letters from the various counties OF
South Carolina that look to thorough
organizations Of the Farmers Union
in them. Yes, we will organize.
When each county has its strong
Farmers Union, and each town It's
aggressive chamber OF commerce all
working in harmony then we will
see a State farmers union and State
chamber of commerce building a
greater South Carolina.
