sign q. pledge. in conjunction with
hundreds, OF thousands Of other cot
ton planters in this great South-wide

to secure living piaces for cotton, to
reduce, tis@ 1919. cotton acreage: at
least oBe-third, and to. curtail the suse
s. commercial fertilizers. -. ! !:

House, there will be held a county
mass meeting to organize the cotton
arodiicers.. merchants. and bankers
OF this county into a cooperative plan
for mutual protective measures. -, -
An extTaordinary situation exists in

act that cotton. is selling below the
cost Of production, which threatens
lire financial distress and suffering
20 those States because existing. mar
xet prices do not allow a margin OF
profit to the cotton producers. -.
The situation is alleged to have
been caused by the ?. fact: that the
available supply of. raw cotton, is in
excess Of the demand. This situation
viii be worse if the 1919 cotton CROP
iss a large one. Every patriotic citi-
-en ts expected, in his interest, and in
his county's and his country's inter-
est. to do his full and his intelligent
