AN APPEAL TO THE FARMERS.
Chairman Price Asks For Co-opera-
ton In Cotton Association Drive.

To the Editor of The Journal
VIII YOU let me say through the coli
umns of your paper. that of all times
this is the time for the farmer ana
business man or rather men OF all
occupations to rally with all their
forces to the cause of the American
Cotton Association. The association
has. more than any other force, caus-
ed the price OF cotton to reach the
Accent mark. We need the associa-
lion to grow and become stronger TO
maintain these prices In the future.
When the drive is put on for member
bership (which will be Nov. 1919
let everybody in Union county rally to
the call of the farmer aud join the
association. Also give a good liberal
subscription to the warehouse. Now
is that time. Why? Because we are
able now. Later when the reaction
sets in we may not be as able as now.
We may not need the money now, but
the day is coming when we will need
IL. So let's do the sensible thing,
build now while we are able and not
wait till we are caught mapping.
Surely we can benefit by the expert
ence of the past. We are coming into
our own. Let's apply good business
principles to our business and help re-
deem this fair Southland OF ours. so
let's all do our duty. appeal to ey-
cry one to do his utmost during this
drive. Let's make Union banner
county.-Respt.. j. N. Price, Pres.
