Brings More Than Georgia Staple
Because OF Pool, Moser Tells
Farmers

CONFER, Dec. ia big mass
meeting and rally in the interest of
She Cotton Growers Cooperative as
seociation was held at Daniclsville, the
county seat of Madison county on
,r.nIay afternoon, attended by sew
al hundred of the leading business
men and best farmers of the county.
Much enthusiasm and interest was
shown over the proposition of coop
rrative marketing. After the princi-
,al addres delivered by c. o. Moser,
Of Texas, secretary of the American
Cotton Covers Exchange, many of
those present offered their time and
services in helping to put Madison
county over the top in securing sign
ed contracts.
Mr.. Moser showed to the entire
satisfaction of every one present just
how the association will be managed
and operated. He told how Texas
and Oklahoma were receiving more
for their cotton today than the Geor-
ola farmers were being paid fortheir
product. Several of the best farm
ers present signed up contracts and
added several hundred bales of cotton
to Madison county's already big list
of contracts signed. Among those
present and taking an active part in
the movement were N. C. Bullock,
ordinary; W. w. Meadow, clerk SUI
perior court; C. B. Ayers, Editor of
Danielsville Monitor; DR.. H. H.
Hampton, j. 0. NJ. Smith, Miles Col
Inns, A. NJ. Wilkins, j. A. Griffith,
II. M. Compton and many others.
Mr.. Bullock was elected and ac-
copied the craftsmanship of the coun-
ty organization with a full corps of
COED men in each district in the coun-
ty as assistants and district chair
men.
