 The association recommends that cotton seed be hauled home from the gin wherever practical to store it. and held for not less than $40 ton. It is worth that for fertilizer or feed to the man who raised it.
 The American Cotton association recommends a. much larger average of food and feed crops, to enable better the cotton grower to finance and mar ket his cotton. It is recomme ed that the cotton acreage be reduced at least 33 1-3 per cent This reduction should tend to eliminate further the accumulation of a surplus to be used to club down the market the ensuing season.
 Federal Reserve Help
 ''The heads of the federal reserve banking system were present from the Dallas, St. Louis, Atlanta and Rich mond districts, as was Governor w. F. G. Harding of the federal reserve from Washington. Federal reserve officials promised the utmost cooperation in the financing of cotton to the advan- tage of the growers.
 Arrangements were made for a large and representative group of cot ten men, business men and bankers, from every section producing cotton, to
 
 confer with the federel reserve board in the matter of securing liberal credit for the cotton producer throughout the belt.
 "A recommendation was adopted that a cotton corporation, with a capi- tai stock of one million bales of low grade cotton, be formed, for the pur- pose of disposfng of our low grades to the more impoverished European countries. A great deal of this type of cotton is now being sold directly by the growers themselves at profitable prices.
 In the recent bear raid to force down the cotton market, Texas and particularly the southwestern district having early cotton, was the weak link in the chain-and it gave way.
 This is the only district not organ ized by the American Cotton associa- tion at that time and having no in formation, when spectators started to sell the bottom out of the market, this district sold heavily, and thus de- pressed the market still further, which is just what the manipulators wanted.
 "FoIIowing this, the large growers, bankers and business men of south western Texas held meeting at Dal- las raised a large amount of money by subscription, to pay the cost of an organization campaign, and charged the American Cotton association with the responsibility of carrying on the organization work to completion by the middle of this September. When 1 this is done it will be much more difficult for the spectators to rob the i producers through their usual tactics Probable Foreign Sale MT.

RENDERS REPORT. IN PROCEEDINGS
 IF COTTON MEET
W. s. Stevens, of Local As sociation, Declares Crow CTS Will Combine to Make Certain Fair and Legiti- mate Profits

There is a nation wide movement, through the American Cotton associ- ation, to keep the cotton producers from being ruined by the bear ele nlent in the cotton market said w s. Stephens, president of the Arizona American Egyptian Cotton Growers associa ton, upon his return from an extended trip over the cotton belt, and also attendance at the convention at Montgomery.
 The cotton growers are going to stick together" continued Mir Ste vens. and by so doing will succeed in getting a price for cotton that will give them a fair and legitimate profit.
 At Montgomery were gathered on September l, 2 and 3. more than 1000 men, representing the cotton growers of the entire country, the merchants and business interests. the bankers, and the various divisions of the feder- al reserve in the south.
 This convention, after a thorough canvass of the situa ton, and a due consideration of the cost of production, set a minimum price to be taken for short cotton at 40 cents per pound up to November 1, and one cent a pound a month to be added to that.
 "The association strongly recom- nnends that the growers positively re- fuse to accept less than this minimum price for their short cotton.
 vFor our fine Pima long. staple this figure should be doubled and no grow CT should under any circumstances accept less than 80 cents a pound for his cotton, and we do not regard this as even beginning to approach it's value.
 Other Recommendations
 The convention further recommend cd that the cotton be marketed in a very orderly way, over a period of from nine months to a year, and that at least 25 per cent of this years crop be carried over into the next fiscal year by the growers themselves This will take out of the hands of specu- lators the big annual carry-over they

Governor Thomas l.. Campbell yes terday notified Mayor Davis of Fl Paso that he will attend the International Exposition and Military Carnival to be held in the Pass City from October 4 to October 9. The governor had de- clined one invitation because of press of official business. and his acceptance came only after the receipt of the fol- lowing telegram, which also carries some information concerning the EX- position:

speed and durability and dependa-

business transacted each day by the
big business men Of the city, and
therefore he believes water commu-

but of real necessity and good.

One New York clubman who for
several years has ridden into New
York on his own little cruiser has
just received from a builder his
latest craft, called Modesty, which
is said by the builders to be the
largest transom stern motor yacht
to take the water this year. The
Modesty is to be used exclusively
for carrying the family of the OWL
er and the owner himself back and
forth between New York and the
summer home, which is not far
away. 1t is to be a Communication
palace on the waves" and is appoint
ed more elegantly, it is said, than
any other like vessel ever turned
out in the United States.
Fit for Cruise
Behind the grace and beauty Of
the Modesty lie ruggedness and a
precision of workmanship. such as
would be found in few other vessels
of her size She could cross the
ocean without the slightest difficulty,
it is said, and is Quilted with all of
the equipment necessary for long
voyages in case the owner desires to
cruise out of the beaten path be-
tween his dock up state and the dock
downtown nearest to his Office
The owners quarters on the Mod
esty are aft and consist Of two
double staterooms, three single
staterooms, three bathrooms, smok-
ing room with passageway amid
ships. A winding stairway forward
on the port side leads up to a So
cial hall on deck dotted with player
piano, bulletin seats, deck of ma
hogany and bookcases of the same
material. SO you can see that the
owner of the Modesty can pick up
a few neighbors each morning as
ne starts to work and bring them
along with him. Also he can fail
to take the right path home most
any evening and go for a lark on
the Atlantic without the least fear
that there will not be room for din
ing and dancing and for enjoying
himself, no matter if there are q half
dozen or more persons on board.
Persons interested in buying boats
for use in carrying them on their
business errands will be surprised,
and quite agreeably, too, TO know
that the engine compartments and
the general mechanism and machin-
cry parts and apparatus of the mod
ern motor boats and motor yachts
are much less complicated and
therefore much less expensive TO-
day than they have been up until
recent months. This in spite of the
fact that labor still is high Of price
and in many instances impossible to
obtain, and also Of the costs OF ma
terals The doing away with GER
tain intricate parts and unnecessary
appliances and devices has done
much to reduce the cost of purchase
and operation Of motor boats.
