Oquently for what 1T has accom-
plished than could any words.
The first year that Blue Rose was
put on the market Of the South.
ern Rice Growers Association
that the farmers received 1915
per barrel for it. 1t was worth
more than Japan rice that had pre-
viously constituted the rice crop.
Japan was selling at 1926. With
out an organization the farmers
would have sold their Blue Rose
at the same price They would
then, as they would now, take just
what was offered, without an or
ganization to look after their in
terest. But that is ancient his
tory. you say. Very well. let us a
little nearer down to date.
"Second-How does the pre-
sent price of rice compare with the
price received prior to the organ
ization of the Southern Rice Grow
er's association? In the old days
rice was sold as low as $500 per
barrel. Today it is bringing
1925. But some growers main
tain that this is not the result OF
the Association s work, but OF
the fact that the price was set by
the Food Administration. They
are wrong. They don't know the
facts. Here they are. An agree
ment could never have been made
between the individuals rice grow
ers and the Food Administration.
It was the Association that looked
after the growers interest at that
time. The government could
have set q price on rice regardless
Of what the grower thought they
ought to have. But the Associa-
ton was on the job. They didn't
want to profiteer or capitalize their
patriotism. They wanted square
deal and worked for it. The in
dividual growers reaped the bene-
fits.
The first price set by the Food
Administration. Had there been
no Association the growers would
have had to accept this price. But
Mr.. Eignus went to Washington
and succeeded in having the price
raised to 500, and later when it
was apparent that salt water dam
age would curtail the crop. Sue
ceeded in getting another raise to
twenty-five cents per barrel.
"Third-But wouldn't the grow
ers have received more for their
rice without the restrictions Of the
Food Administration and the FIX
ed pricei Decidedly not. Some
rice farmers really think SO.
They. too, are wrong. Here are
the facts. When the Southern
Rice Growers Association prom
ised to do all in its power to get
its members to accept the price
specified, Mr.. Whitmarsh, know
ing that the organization was q
strong one and could do what it
agreed to do said: "Then l will
turn down this bunch Of applica-
tions for Importation Of foreign
rice. The government needed
rice, but they didn't need to pay
profteering prices for it. All they
had to do was to let in the foreign
rices and the price would have
dropped. This embargo against
foreign rices is still in effect. The
growers are getting the benefit.
They are being protected. The
Association has been able to look
after their interests. They have
received more for their rice under

DO YOU RIDE FREE?

The following article, written
by Ben L. Brooks, and published
in the February issue Of the Rice
journal, answers fully questions
often asked by rice men. and is
going the rounds Of the press in
this section Of the State. It gives
credit where credit is due for
protection Of rice farmers during
the past and outlines future plans
for the best interest of rice grow
ers: rrs
"The advance Of cooperation,
organization, team work-call it
what You will-are SO plainly ap-
parent that it seems q waste OF
time to comment on them. Yet
there are rice farmers who do not
appreciate the value Of their or
.ganization. and some Of them. not
having made q study Of conditions
and all sides Of the matter. are
sincere in their belief that they
can get along without an organiza-
ton. We do not refer to those
who, knowing that the Southern
Rice Growers Association is the
salvation of the rice farming indus
try and fully realizing the benefits
Il has been able to bestow upon
individuals farmers in the way Of
better prices, lower freight rates,
ETC., still prefer to ''ride free" and
let the other fellow pay the fare.
We have no argument with this
class Of rice farmers. They are
deriving equal benefits with their
neighbors who belong to the organ
ixation. due to the efforts Of the
Association. they receive more for
their rice than they never did or
could without it. They know it,
hut they are willing to take these
benefits and let the others fellow
keep up the organization. They
naye six and . half cents . sack.
Perhaps that u sufficient to salye
their sense Of fairness. They can
90 along at that gait and kid them
selves in the Association anyway.
But they really know better.
They just don t want to pay the
price. They ride free: We have
no argument against those people.
They are found in all lines Of in
duetry. II is more q matter Of
principal than enlightenment with
them. You can't change man s
principales BY argument.
sBut there are other engaged
IA the rice industry whose lack Of
loyalty to the association is mere
" the result Of net having had the
right way. And the blind are not
81 near as bad q fix as those who
have eyes and won t see. So with
this class Of rice farmers there is
some hope. They are honest and
sincere and want to do their share.
They win hold mp their end. All
Hey need is to be convinced.
Now, let's see what they think Of
the following fact: First Does

1t is too early to get out an accur-
ate estimate on crops at this time, but
the general prospects are very good.
Considerable blowing has been done.
There is more of demand for farm

stimulated farmers to cultivate crops
better. and the general prospect, both

time Recipe that Anybody
q Apply.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out:of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
WIN get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition of other In
gradients, which a be depended up
on to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says 1t darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell 1t has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking II
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears, and after IN
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.-Adv.
