OF INTERSET TO FARMERS
Edited BY I. VI. Cathcart
County Cotton Association

Now is the time for all farmers t
pull together and free themselve:
from the yoke that has held them Ii
slavery for over sixty years.
; During the past we have market
ed our cotton. taking just whatever
the market saw fit to pay, but We
can change this and dictate to the
market instead OF being dictated to
The County Cotton Association
which is one of the links in the long
chain of the American Cotton Asso-
citation, will make US independent OF
the market, and we can fix the price
of cotton, and the mills will have to
pay the price that we ask. Unless we
20 organize we will always be in
slavery, taking just anything that
we can get for our cotton. When we
90 to a store to buy anything we
pay the price the merchant asks,
and when we go to sell our cotton
we take just what the market gives
1t is very evident that we haven't
and Say-So in the price of anything
:, ny does such conditions exist? Be
cause we are not organized. We are
all working as individuals and the
result is we are slaves to the mills
and spectators Of our country. Do
we want to continue in this same old
rut or do we want to make change.
Lets organize and throw off that old
yoke that has held US in slavery for
so many years.
When the Township Committee
calls on US the Is, 27, and %, OF
months, let's sign the membership
cards, and become active workers
tor our association. Just the signing
of the card not enough for US to
Go. We must tell the other fellow and
get him to join, for we need and
must have the hearty support OF
every farmer, merchant and banker
in Williamsburg county, and they
must all be active workers for the
association. We can't sit down and
expect just a few to do the work,
but We must all work and boost the
association if we expect to make a
grand success of it and acco 9liSh
our purpose. BY doing this we will
get a fair price for our cotton this
fall, but by failing to do so we may
have to take much less per pound
Let is be said next Tuesday when
Let it be said next Tuesday when
held at the court house that every
farmer in the county was there pull
ing for his association fo~all that he
was worth. We can't afford to miss
it. Be there fighting for independ-
ence.
