Here l come after so long q time. | If all the scribes but Lemoac would | write regular, it certainly would be | fine.
 We farmers are getting ready to
 gather peas and cotton. If we do not get 40 cents for our cotton this Fall, l
 do not think we will get our rights. I am satisfied that the crop is over estimated two million bales. Grady Hairston has purchased 5S acres of land from Tom Goodwin and | is having a nice bungalow erected on it. Coleman Camp is building the house.
 w. H. White killed large rattler on
 his farm one day last week. It had seven rattles and was about 412 feet long. That was my first rattlesnake to
 see and don5t care if it is the last one. Frank Bailey and wife of Columbia

 22 years ago. He has bee nliying near Calhoun since he fooled Mamie. He
 has made splendid living. although he has had some big doctor bills to pay.
 He and wife seem to be in better health in their latter days, for which l am sure they are thankful. There has been some talk of Frank making the race for sheriff of Columbia county in .he near future. If he does. I phophesy :hat he will be eelcted. Eranh sub

 many more will do likewise. Come again, Cousin Frank and Mamie. Yes, Alexander, I voted for the two bit lawyer, and I trust he will prove good and 1 believe he will.

THE FIGHT FOR BETTER COTTON PRICES-SN THINGS YOU
 CAN DO

The great meeting of the American last week, discussed lot of things, but we believe the gist of the whole conference may be given ill six definite things every cotton farmer ill the South can do 10 help the fight for better prices:
 1. First and foremost, hold your cotton. We must show the bear gamb- Iers and their allies that they have ab- .soIu.cIy mistaken the spirit and deter animation of the Southern people if they think we will sit idly by and be robbed of half the fruits of this years labor. Ii has cost between 30 and 40 cents q yD,Ind to make this years crop. The decision of the Montgomery meeting was that 40 cents should be minimum prices for middling.
 Not only must each man resolve to bold his own crop, but he must see his neighbors and insist on their holding. -f1S Js A. DIoNH Sdsof WV ih"'i 'i''S s,p the market so tight that no man can buy or beg bale of cotton at present prioes-so that the only way to get q bale of new-crop cotton until prices improve will be to steal it.''
 Mr. !. A. Todd, the distinguished English authority, who came to Mont somery at President Wannamaker's re- quest, sized up the present world-situa- lion somewhat as follows: CD The world will need every bale Of cotton that is produced this year. There is no real overproduction. .2) Right now, however, there is practically no move ment of cotton goods, wholly abnor- nal temporary dullness in the business of cotto manufacturers, and of course they are not offering normal. prices for cotton. Present prices are only ficti- fious prices based on a temporarily de- moralized market.
 Nevertheless if one-fourth of the cot ion farmers of the South are such fools as fo accept this fictitious under-valua- sion for 1920 cotton, prices on tSe whole .t.rop will be lowered We must keep anybody and everybody from selling at present prices.
 ?. Go to your country mass meeting next Wednesday. September h. Every s.onnty in the South is asked to hold mass meeting of its cotton farmers on this date. 10 make plans for holding warehousing. cutting acreage and co- operative marketing. Go. and get your zleighhors to go. both landlord and ten ant, black and white. We must edu- cate everybody and all classes to the {,1pOrtance of this fight And see 10 It l.hat everybody makes some centrlbu- 7 fion fo rsupporting the Cotton Assoeia- t{0n in it's plans X good method Will sle to have every grower authorize his rfn,rr to deduct 10 to 25 cents bale for the organization. Business men . .hn,.ld subscribe literally. for no one will be hurt more than they if the Sonth's spending power and debt-pay- ing power is cut ill half.
 3. Cut your cotton acreage next year Inv sowing record-breaking grain crop yhis fall. Don't just talk about "eut-
The Nevada County picayune., 1920-09-09

| ting down acreage"-a negative sort
 of program. Tell everybody to cut his
 cotton acreage by sowing more wheat oats and rye, and by sowing more
 clover to enrich the land for corn next year. This is the only sensible way to reduce acreage.
 f. Put your cotton in warehouse, and organize q cooperative marketing association. Remarkably important
 was the comprehensive report on co operative marketing adopted at Mont
 gomery, the result of months of labor by Cotton Specialist Murph and others. The report tells just how to start CO operative selling with official grading | to chasing in your community.
 As for warehouses, if there is not sufficient warehouse room in your sec tion, it will pay to hurry up the con- struction of buildings of a cheaper sort. In next weeks Progressive Far mer we expect to present some plans worked out by Mir. D. c. Walty, vice. president an dmanager of the Arkansas Cotton Association, whereby 1,ooJ bales may be taken care of in struc- ture costing only $500. We do not believe, of course, that every commun- ity should be content with such cheap and impermanent construction, but this at least indicates that no community need accept the ridiculous prices now offered by bear spectators on the ground that it can't house its crop. 5. Do all you can to help men who are in a tight place financially from having to sacrifice their cotton. Make it a point to see the president or cashier of the bank you do business with Tell him large part of his husiness comes from farmers and that farmers expect him to go the limit i'll helping them now. See your merchant and tell him he had better suffer some temporary inconvenience, better wait until he can wait no longer on his col ion customers, rather than force the South back into the poverty and back wardness it formerly suffered And if you have tenants or neighbors who in- sist on selling anyhow, buy their cot ion if possible, and hold it out of the regular channels of trade.
 6. Demand also fair price for cot to nseed This subject has already been discussed in previous issues Of The Progressive Farmer. The decision of the Montgomery meeting was that farmers who can use cottonseed meal for feeding should exchange cotton seed for an equal quantity of cottonseed meal. or should sell seed when ton of seed is selling for as much as ton of meal
 If this battle for better cotton prices is to be won, the growers themselves must fight to the finish Here are SIX definite things every man can do. Check up yourself and see how many of them you are willing to do-and spread the news to your neighbors.- The foregoing article will appear in the Progressive Farmer September II.
