 The feature of the letter that most interested Mr Brown was para graph which reads as follows:
 "Thcre is feeling that the crisis 1f the season soon will be over. The formula is somewhat like this: Grant cd that the crop is short. between <; 300 OOO and 10000 bales, we had q carryovor of 9.194000 bales and the total will be big enough to provide lh- surauce against scarcity before next year when back yards and fence cor uers will be planted thus providing m abundance.
 "There you have the best reason ln he wrold why the cotton farmers rpst organize" said MT. Brown, That is exactly what everyone eNz iects and that is what will happen 9ext year unless the farmers get to ,othcr-thc back yards and fence cor lars will he planted to cotton, there yiU he another enormous crop ana ba price will 90 down to less than He cost of product on.
 "Hnt that k one of the things that ,e Arkansas Cotton Growers co =eratiye Association, working ln co

.. WATER POWER

i Does your farm have q small stream
flowing across it. :, Even tho it may
be a stream whose source is a spring
it contains hidden energy for you.
Harness the brook with a small water
wheel or turbine and generate cleo
tricity for your home needs. There is
only one plant Of this kind in opera
ton in Minnesota at present. This
plant has been in successful use for
seven years, at cost per year of
about Sill for repairs. It is run by a
very small stream, and batteries are
necessary. This makes the upkeep
higher than it would be otherwise.
Write for information and let us boost
for conservation of fuel by using ma
lures water power.
