STEADY, NOW, COTTON PLANTERS.

COTTON sold Tuesday the New York exchange for
~ delivery $l9S6 per hundred within few points
Of 20 cents pound
Every planter of this state who has bale of cotton to
sell and decides to turn il loose to hold IT for a
price which he may think will be higher is already esti'
mating his acreage for 1917 II he is human
he has probably determined to his cotton acreage
in the belief that he will sell his product next year for
price ranging around ~ cents
The Oklahoma planter may have the idea that he can
slip in few acres, while his neghbor cng to the
acreage OF 1916 But if any planter obtains the idea that
he is smarter than his neghbor, he will do well to reflect
before he tackles such dangerous undertaking expand
ing his cotton operations.
II ono man becomes intoxicated with present cotton
prices then some other man will come under the same
influence Then others and still others will look wst-
fully the magic market figures in the cotton column
and Sooquilc "li raise cotton IT will show that
look ahead the other fellows will not think Of this and
ri get a lot of profit by planting extra acres"
II any planter gets this into his head, he is the
wrong track The history of farming operations tells us
that good prices induce increased acreage of crops that
sell at increased values The result is supply which de
the price the following season.
II there be general movement to plant more cotton
next spring in Oklahoma and other cotton states, the hum
bic planter look for lower prices next year Perhaps
he may be confronted by the specer of l0cen cotton
II Oklahoma planters will keep their heads and hold
their cotton acreage the 1910 basis decrease
the acreage next year they will contribute condition
which will bring them the kind OF profit that they
are making this year.
Steady, now cotton planters; you have had grand
season and YOU can have OF the kind OF
prosperity il you do all stampede and flood the world
with cotton
