Whereas, it is apparent that the
price Of cotton is largely the result
Of supply and demand, and that it has
been practically demonstrated and
proven that the small crops of cotton
net the farmers more than the large
crops, and
Whereas, the great business men OF
the country who have made the cotton
business a scientific study, are advis-
ing that the only way to insure the
farmer living price for the remnant
of his present crop and the crop to be
raised this year.
Be it resolved that we endorse the
movement to reduce the acreage for
the present crop, and pledge oursely-
es tie carry it out in McNairy Co. and
that we will follow the general plan
given out by those who have charge
of the campaign for acreage reduct-
lion and better farming, and, further,
that we pledge ourselves to the rails
ing of more foodstuff and livestock to
the end that we shall be able to feed
ourselves, that we. may have more
money for schools, churches, roads
and to promote the happiness and
welfare of our communities and the
county.
After the adoption of the above
resolution by a unanimous vote, tbs
