A GOOD OUTLOOK FOR COTTON
The Head Of South Carolina Farmers
Union Predicts a 15-Cent Price
For the Crop.

Columbia.-The following statement
has been issued by'President Dabbs.
of the State Farmers Union:
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 for 13 1-2 cents at interior points.
All of a sudden without rhyme or
reason" the market broke and it
continued to go down until 10 IL
cents was reached in the local mar
kets. Not having the desired effect
of stampeding the farmers like 1t has
in the past, we see 1t steadily going
up. Each day the "wise-acres" say 1t
will break tomorrow. Each day they
say that Liverpool should come down
six or seven points. Each day sees
the report that Manchester continues
to buy at higher prices than can be
paid on this side. What does it all
| mean?
II it means anything it means that
cotton is in demand; that organiza-
ton is telling, or that there is fear OF
il; that the farmers, the merchants
and the bankers need but to pull to-
gether and we will see 15-cent cotton
for two-thirds of the crop. 1t also
means that they are working together
more closely than ever before. Mar
ket slowly and the price Is ours.
We rejoice in the activity displayed
in organizing chambers Of commerce
in the towns and cities Of the South.
We rejoice In such boosters trips as
Richmond, Va. just pulled off and as
Sumter will pull off in few months.
We rejoice at the hopeful letters from
the various counties Of South Carolina
that look to thorough organization OF
the Farmers Union in them. Yes. we
will organize. When each county has
It's strong Farmers Union and each
town It's aggressive chamber OF com
merce all working In harmony, then
we will see a State Farmers Union
and a state chamber Of commerce
| building a greater South Carolina.
