erybody to cut his cotton acreage by
sowing more wheat, oats and rye, and
by sowing more clover to enrich the
land tor corn next year. This is the
only sensible way to reduce acreage.
4. Put your cotton in a warehouse,
and organize 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 Murpy and 9TH
ers. The report tells just how to
start cooperative selling with official
grading or CHASING in your commu-
nifty.
AS for warehouses, if there is not
sufficient warehouse room in your
section, it will pay to hurry up the
construction of buildings of a cheaper
sort. In next. Weeks Progressive
Farmer we ex bet to present some
plans worked out by Mr.. D. c. Walty,
vice-president and manager of the Ar
kansas Cotton Association, whereby
1000 bales may BIO taken care of in a
structure costing only $780, We do
not believe. of course, that every COM
munity 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 spectators on
the ground that it can't house its crop.
S. Do all you can to help men who
are in tight 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 business comes
from farmers and that farmers ex-
pect him to go the limit in helping
them now. See your merchant and
tell him he had better suffer some tenn
porary inconvenience, better wait I'M
til he can wait no longer on his cot
ton customers, rather than force the
South back into the poverty and back
wardness it formerly suffered. And
If YOU have tenants or neighbors who
insist on selling anyhow, buy their cot
ton if possible, and hold it out of the
regular channels OF trade.
6. Demand also fair price for cot
ton seed. This subject has already
been discussed in previous issues OF
The Progressive Farmer. The decis-
ion OF the Montgomery meeting was
that farmers who can use cottonseed
meal for feeding should exchange cot.
ton seed for an equal quantity of cot
tonseed meal, or Should sell seed wher
ton of seed is selling for as much
as ton of meal.

The Eight For Better
Cotton Prices
SIX THINGS YOU CAN DO

The great meeting of the American
Cotton Association in Montgomery,
Ala, last week, discussed a lot of
things, but we believe the gist of the
whole conference may be given in six
definite things every farmer in the
South can do to help the fight for
better prices. !:
l. First and foremost, hold your
cotton. We must show the bear gam
blers and their allies that they have
absolutely mistaken the spirit and de-
termination Of the people of the South
if they think we will sit idly by and
be robbed of half the fruits of this
years labor. 1t has cost between 80
and 40 cents pound to make this
years crop. The decision of the Mont
gomery meeting was that 40 cents
should be minimum price for mid
ding.
Not only must each man resolve
to hold his own crop, but he must
see his neighbors and insist on their
holding. AS ]. A. Brown says, 1--WE
must shut up the market so tight that
no man can buy or sell bale of cot
ton at present prices--so that the
only way to get new bale of cotton
until prices imprve will be to steal it"
Mr.. ]. A. Tod, the distinguished
English authority, who came to Mont
gomery at the request of President
Wannamaker, sized up the present
world-situation somewhat as follows:
Cd The world will need every bale OF
cotton that is produced this year.
There is no real over-production. (2)
Right now, however, there is prac-
tically no movement of cotton goods
a wholly abnormal temporary dullness
III the business of cotton manufac-
turers, and of curse they are not of
fering normal prices fir cotton. Pres
sent prices are only fictictious prices
based on a temporarily demoralized
market.
Nevertheless, if one-fourth OF the
cotton farmers of the South are such
tools as to accept this fictitious under
valuation for 1920 cotton, prices on
the whole crop will be lowered. We
must keep anybody from selling at
present prices.
z. Go to your county mass meet
ing next Monday. September 20.
Every county in the South is asked
to hold mass meeting of its cotton
farmers on this date, to make plans
tor holding, warehousing, cutting
acreage and cooperative marketing.
Go, and get your neighbors to go,
both landlord and tenant, black and
white. We must educate everybody
and all classes to the Importance OF
this fight. And see to it that every
body makes some contribution for sup.
porting the Cotton Association in its
plans. A good method will be to have
every grower authorize his ginner to
deduct 10 to Is cents bale for the or
ganization. Bushes men should SUBJ
scribe literally, for no one will be hur,
more than they if the South's SPEND
ing power and debt-paying power is
cut in half.
8. Cut your cotton acreage next
year by sowing a record breakins

about cutting down acreage

WAS WORTH IT'S
WEIGHT IN GOLD
This Is What st. Paul Man Says of
Tanlac-Had Suffered Eleven
Years

"If everybody knew how much good
Tanlac has done me there isn't any
one who wouldn't think as | do-that
it is worth its weight in gold and
should be in every home" said Gust
Kirchiff, 493 West Central avenue, St.
Paul, Mimi, an employee of the Foote-
Schulz Shoe Company.
"When | started taking Tanlac L
had been suffering from spells of ner-
vous indigestion for the past eleven
years. Whenever these spells came
on me | would bloat up something
awful for two or three days at time
and have intense sharp, shooting pains
in the region Of my heart. These at
tacks always left me in very weak
ened condition and | was unable to
work for several days following them.
Many a night | would walk the floor
in agony that was almost unbearable,
and | could never get a good night
sleep; for when | wasn't lying awake
with pain | would toss and roll from
one side of the bed to the other on ac-
count of nervousness, and always got
up feeling tired and wornout. | was

to the Red Cross through dollar an
nual memberships. The grand OBJ
jective behind the Fourth Roll Call
and for all the annual Roll Calls. for
that matter-is to secure as nearly as
possible universal membership.
Ten million members are now en-
rolled under the banner Of the Amer
lean Red Cross and, Mr. Held an
nOunces, the returns are still coming
in. This is twenty times the pre-war
membership Of the Society; and, in ad-
dition, there are fourteen million mem
bers of the Junior Red Cross. Offic-
ers Of the Northern Division are al
ready making plans to have the 1921
Roll Call more enthusiastic and more
nearly universal function than its pro-
decessor, counting on the greater pop
ular knowledge, founded on the prac-
teal work put into effect during the
past year, and a better conception OF
the peace time program, to stimulate
interest among all classes Of the coun-
try's population.

| Formal announcement was recent
ly made by DR.. Livingston Farrand,
acting for the Executive Committee
Of the Red Cross, that the period from
Armistice Day, November II, to
Thanksgiving Day, November 25, has
| been set for the renewal of member
ship in the American Red Cross and
the securing of new members. Mari
on G. Scheitlin, National Director Of
Publicity, has been appointed Director
of the Fourth Roll Call.
General plans for conducting the
Roll Call were set forth in letter
from Frederick c. Monroe, General
Manager of the American Red Cross,
to C. C. Held, Division Manager of
the Northern Division. In this letter,
| MIR. Monroe emphasizes the fact that
the Red Cross is permanent ma
tional organization, whose members
bringing about better conditions of
health and living to all people.
Mr.. Monroe enumerates the various
activities of the Red Cross, including
not only the war-work which it has
done at home and abroad, but chiefly
the peace time operations which it has
assumed as its gigantic new task.
| This comprises work in disaster re-
lief and preparedness for the future;
placing and educating Public Health
| Nurses, teaching Home Care of the
Sick, First and Dietetics; developing
Junior Red Gross; extending Home
Service to civilian families; and adj
vancing the cause of public health.
In expressing the spirit that should
animate those who are to act as
leaders, Mr.. Monroe says:
eve feel pride in what has been
| done to meet our obligations to SER
vice and ex-service men and their
| families, in divisions and chapters and
in military, naval and public health
service hospitals. OF equal impor-
lance, and of even more dramatic
| significance has been the work of our
foreign units in fighting conditions of
! restitution. We ask the approval of
the American people for this work and
accept the duty of helping to make
clear to them that humanitarian con-
siderations and self-interest alike re-
quire every possible effort on their
part to prevent the spread of condi-
| tions prevalent in Easter and Central
Europe In this connection / have re-
Gently sent out letter asking chap
tiers to make layettes and clothing for
distribution in these European fields"
In connection with announcing the
dates for the annual enrolment of
Red Cross members for the year 1921,
the Chairman of the Central and Exc
cutive Committee made known the de-
cision of the American Red Cross to
| make each anniversary of the end of
the World War, henceforth, the occa-
sion for renewing popular allegiance

Red Cross Gives
Care at State Fair
Accident and Emergency Cases to Be
Cared for by Red Cross
Officials.

Accidents and emergency cases OF
illness at the Minnesota State Fair
will receive free treatment at the Red
Cross Hospital which will be main
tanned on the Fair Grounds during the
week of September 4 to II, under the
direction of Dr. Mabel S. Ulrich, Dl-
rector of Health Service for the
Northern Division.
An entire building will be occupied
by the hospital There will be two
wards, containing twenty-five beds,
and a porch which will be used as a
sun-parlor. Dr. L. A. Calkins, of the
University Hospital in Minneapolis,
will be in charge, with DR.. S. B. Sol
haug as his assistant. Captain G. R.
G. Fisher, First Aid expert for the
Northern Division, will be on the am
bulance which has been provided by
the Red Cross. Other members of the
staff are Miss Frances Grannis, a
trained nurse from the Children's Pre-
ventorium of Ramsey County, two am
bulance drivers, and any other vol
unteer helpers that may be found
necessary.
Last year, the State Fair Associa-
ton had charge of the emergency
work, with Dr. Calkins as superintend-
ent. The large number Of cases of
heat exhaustion, faintness, and acct
dents of various kinds which came up
during the week made it seem advisa-
BILE to make more extensive prepare
tions for the work this year. The

The Red Cross most likely has the
largest membership of any organiza-

might be the Ananias Club. Nearly
one-half the people of the United
States are directly interested in Red

duals contributed to the second War
Fund. There are now 100000 paid
