HUNS WE'RE IMPRESSED.
Death of Quentin Roosevelt Affected
 Them strangely.

Washington, Dec. 5.--That nonc oC, tue six sons of the kaiser who fought ill the recent war received even so much as a scrat ch, is a fact that has caused a great deal of discussion in this country. What Is not so well known, however, is that 1t was a mat ter of comm ent among the Germans themselves. Attention was called to this at the time of the death of Quentin Roosevelt. According to Lieut.. Frederick M. Stoudt, just re- turned to this country after a years service abroad, German prisoners had the greatest respect for the fact that a man as famous as the former presi- dent should give his sons into the thick of the fight. Young Roosevelt's death had a decided reaction among the Hun soldiers. and instead of re- joicing at his fall their morale was to

French authors style it. pacific re-

the several nations, who were to act
as court of arbitration in any dis

"Had the plan been adopted at the
time it was proposed the taxes of Eng

would have been at least ten millions
sterling annually to each nation less
than they were at the commencement

THE COTTON REMEDY.
Atlanta Constitution.

Atlanta Constitution.
A reduction of cotton acreage, with
a proportionate increase in the produc-
ton of food crops and live stock, on
the farmers part, and liberal support
extended by the banking interests,
will effectively solve the problem OF
stablizing the price of cotton now and
in the future.
It is only question of getting the
growers and the bankers organized
for teamwork to that end.
A general Statewide meeting for
that purpose has been called by the
commissioner of agriculture, to be
held in Macon, next Thursday.
Elsewhere upon this page we pre-
sent two timely communications along
this line.
one is from Braselton Brothers,
merchants and bankers, of Braselton:
Ga. and the other is from James Il.
Boykin, of Lincolnton, Ga. Both are
to the same general end: Reduction OF
cotton production and cooperation be-
tween growers and business.
eve are taking care of our custom
ers: and we expect to let them hold
their cotton for a while longer and
see if they will not get better price
for it," says Braselton Bros.
Mr.. Boykin says with emphasis that
.there must be a reduction in the
acreage of cotton this year, of at least
40 per cent" and he admonishes the
cotton producer that he "holds the
winning hand if he will only play the
cards right"
The little spot-cotton holders can
not stand up against the organized
cotton gamblers and spectators any
more than the gamblers could stand
against the spot holders if they are
organized and the banks stand back OF
them!
GAS for next and future crops: Plant
less cotton and produce commensu--
rately more food crops and live stock,
and the problem is solved!

TT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY
TO REDUCE COTTON ACREAGE

III
TO REDUCE COTTON ACREAGE
we are now confronted with con-
ditions that make it more and more
necessary to reduce acreage and fer
tilizer for 1919. We have an unset
tied condition over the entire world
in all branches Of industry; and more
especfally in regard to the textile
manufacturing industry. We see from
the New York papers and trade jour
nails that much unrest exists in all
branches of textile industry. There
10 demand for shorter wage hours and
full nay, which if granted. in the enc
the producer will have to pay. ie
successfully combat these conditions
is to eliminate production.
What is the use to hold cotton and
n,ant a full acreage this year? You
destroy the very object you are try
ing to accomplish, namely, higher
nrices for the cotton we are holdlns'
There never existed a graVer STU
alton than exists today for the South.
We have the situation under our own
control provided we act ana act 1T
once and the only action needed Is
a drastic curtailment OF acreage III
cotton and in the use of fertilizer.
Think soberly for moment. view
conditions as they are and Will eA-
Sst if some drastic measure or ac1ion
is not taken.
Here we are holding more tnan
one-half of last years production
looking forward to and expecting
higher prices, all of which we are en-
titled to, and which we can secure. L
we will only reduce cotton acreage
and the use of fertilizer.
As stated there is labor unrest In
textile manufacturing and In the face
c6 the fact that no labor Is better
paid any manufacturing enterprise
but if the demand for shorter hours
and no reduction in pay Is granted
the additional cost Of manufacturing
will in the end come out OF the pro-
drcer.
We all remember very well what
pre-war prices did for the South
Cotton production did not pay tne
cost of producing, and Why should we
produce cotton, product that the en-
tire civilized world needs. below the
cost of production? TIE Souta is the
onlv country on earth that can pro-
duce this product that the entire
world needs and trust Have. It is high
time for the farmers of the South 10

alton. We must determine to make
a drastic reduction in acreage ana

can get a price that we are entitled
70 have for it and the crop we are TO
grow this year. In this way we will
he able to maintain values of all per-
sonal property as we'll as real estate.
We should not plant for larger crop
this year than eight or nine million
bales.
Let us be true to each other and
every one, both large and small Iar
mer, reduce acreage and fertilizer
and success and prosperity will come
to the South as never dreamed OF be-
fore. This is the most critical yea:
we have ever had. We have the STU
alton in our own hands. Why should
we throw it away? Hold your cotton,
reduce your acreage and fertilizer
from 30 to 40 per cent and success
will surely be ours.
