Control of Cotton Marketing.

ITO get a fair price for cotton,
growers in the South are being ad-
vised to follow one or all the three
Methods" says a cotton specialist.
Some propose direct reduction OF
acreage, and conduct campaigns for
the purpose. But the answer to that
is given pointedly by the Dallas Cot
ton News, when it says of cotton
growers, that they can not control
the acreage because a large proper
ton of them possibly majority OF
them-must rely on the cotton crop
for practically everything they need,
from a side of bacon to a span of
mules and a striped wagon. This
necessitates large cotton acreage.
"The other method is presented IN
an advertisement of the Southern
States Cotton Corporation according
to whose policy farmers are asked
to contract for their 1913 cotton crop
at a price of Is cents per pound,
basis middling, and at this price 1t
will create wealth in the South to the
amount of 1925, 100000 more than
was brought by the crop of 1912" "
This organization claims that more
than 25O cotton-growing counties in
the South are organized under this
cooperative plan, and that if every
county contracts 10000 bales, a total
of 2,5OO,OOO bales would be taken off
the market until the price of 5 cents
is reached. This is the second way
by which it is proposed to market
cotton so as to avoid the losses from
dumping the crop upon the market in
what is known as the distressed
period.
"But there is a third way in which
the individual figures more than the
reduced acreage campaigner, the
mass meeting of the 15-cent corpor-
alton. A cotton seed authority says:
Nothing under heaven, except great
er diversity of crops can give the cot
ton farmer any control over the mar
ket of his cotton or put him on any
thing like an equal footing with the
buyers of his staple Rotation and
diversifcation of crops alone can
give relief by gradual reduction OF
