Placing the Loans.

"The legislature granted me power
to negotiate loans and make sales Of
cotton, but appropriated no money ex-
cept for current expenses. 1t is a
manifest impossibility for me, without
providing new machinery, to handle
these individual loans, and | hope to
make arrangements with several Ideal
banks to transact this business Oh a
margin of 2 per cent profit-that is, II
they can get the money at 4 per cent
they lend it to the farmer at per
cent lean myself place straight loans
at 5 per cent in New York, but it would
not be possible for me to handle them
in small amounts. In the matter OF
sales of cotton | am in toucn with q
gentleman from Europe VITO is ia
miliar with the cotton business, AMI |
am satisfied that arrangements canb c
made to sell cotton direct to the mills.
81 believe that the State warehouse
system is a scientific solution of the
cotton problem 1t is in its infancy,
but can be developed to handle the
cotton in each of tie Southern States
on the same plan that we are pursu-
ing mere, enabling US omarket our
crop gradually.
To Stabilize its Value.
''All legitimate il erests in cotton
desires to stabilize it's value. Hedge
selling by mills to protect purchases Of
cotton is now a necessity, because OF
wide fluctuations in the price Of raw
cotton. This expense is now borne by
the cotton planter A striking example
was had a few days ago when a re-
port was circulated in the exchanges
U-at Secretary Houston had said there
would be no reduction of acreage,
Prices broke shortly, which enabled
short sellers to get out of the market,
and who probably circulated the sto"y
for t-at purpose. The next day, on a
denial by .Ar. Houston, the market re-
bounded to higher point than ever.
It is to be hoped that the secretary OF
agriculture will find out the author Of
this conspiracy in restraint of trade
and prosecute them to the limit OF
the law.
Farmers Need Organization.
"The farmers need organization so as
to make their power felt. At present
there is no adequate means to secure
unity of action among the severa!
States. The Farmers union is stro7
in Texas and North Carolina. We
should revive it in the other States so
as to enable US to act together in Sc
curing proper legislation, not only in
handling and marketing the crop, but
in restricting production. the present
rise in the price of cotton is deceptive
and if it leads to generally increased
use of fertilizer and enlarged acreage
tie result will be disastrous. Those
interested in cheap cotton can act as "s
unit. We are a disorganiZed mass,
each man for himself with no concert
of action The warehouse bill is a fine
example of what can be accomplished
by concentrated effort.
"Fellow farmers, let us organize and
act together. We create the credits,
we have the numbers, WHY not use our
power?"

NO NEW DRUG STORES.
Maximum Number Has Already Been
 Reached in New Britain.

New Britain can have no new drug stores for long period. This is de- termined by a law which was passed by the legislature restricting pharma- cies to one for every 5000 inhabitants. New Britain now has tventy-three drug stores and there can be now new ones until the population reaches 69,000. The law does not affect those already in business, although this city is entitled to only fifteen drug stores.
 It is believed that the coiored gem tleman in the wood heap ,s found in the opposition to large corporations who conduct chains of drug stores. They will be effectively shut out of opening up any more stores unless they buy those already established, as there is not thought to be city in the state which has not reached it's maximum number
 The supporters of the biIi claimed that it was aimed at these who enter the drug business with the intention of growing rich through Inc sale of drinks.
