TIDES S TURNED;
GO TO WORK is
BANKERS VIEW
l.. G. Council. Optimis-
tic, Sees Zoe Cotton
Coming

The tide has turned; tell people
to quit grumbling and so to work;
and tell them, too, to plant food
crops-raise everything they use on
the farm, and plant to cotton only
what land they have left over after
they have arranged to supply all
their wants; and tell them to con-
duct their farming operations just
as economically as they possibly
can"
This was the message of optimism
expressed Monday by L. G. Council,
banker, cotton factor, fertilizer
manufacturer and large farmer.
81 think we are going to see 20
cent cotton some of these days, if
the farmers will just hold on" said
Mr.. Council. 81 feel certain now
that we have seen the w0rst and
that we shall see a gradual but pos
tive Improvement. | do not look
for any boom-and we don't want
that-but for continued better
times. After all, the experience we
have been through and from which
we are beginning to emerge, will
prove best for us in the end. We
were living too fast, working too
little, buying too many big automo-
biles and spending too much. We
have all got to get down to work
and producing, spending just a little
less than we produce or make as we
go along. That is what we need and
is what we must come to.
Must Be Sustaining.
every farmer must make his
farm self-sustaining. That is our
salvation, and we've got to come to
that, too. Those who have been do
ing that heretofore are able to hold
their heads up and smile; they have
not been hit by the slump in prices
like the fellow who had all his eggs
in one basket. They have their
hams and bacon, their meal, butter,
eggs, etc. and if they did mot get
what they wanted for theirSscotton,
or still are holding it, they are able
to get along without much worry"
Mr.. Council was asked about the
fertilizer outlook.
"Tell the farmers to use German
potash freely this year." he says.
"Our land has actually been impov-
erished for lack of potash. For sew
eral years we could not get it at
all; last year what we got came late.
For this year we are getting it al
ready and there will be plenty.
"What the price will be we do not
know, for the government has not
fixed the price yet.
Must Fcrtilize.
"Whatever the price, the fertlli-
zer maker stands to lose, it now
appears, because he had to buy his
materials so far ahead. My plant
is now receiving ESQ tons day of
German musiate, so that there will
be an ample supply early, While
farmers are curtailing expenses in
every way, they must not make the
mistake of expecting to grow crops
without fertilization"
Mr.. Council, who was in very
optimistic mood, declared that the
revival of the war finance corpora
ticn, which was voted by Congress
last week over the presidents veto,
and the establishment of the cotton
export bank at New Orleans, would
help the cotton and general situa-
tion for the South.
II am glad Congress passed the
war finance corporation bill over the
presidents Veto" he said, because
l believe it will help our foreign
markets, and that is what we need

Overalls To Return
To Pre-War Prices

NEW YORK, Jan. 10. = Overall
denim prices have been revised by
one of the largest manufacturers to
a basis Of II cents for 220 indigoes.
The top price in the open market
last year in second hand trading was
SIS cents and the highest price nam
ed by agents was "A cents.
The new prices will mean that
wholesalers of overalls viii be able
to sell on basis permitting retail
ing at $1.50 instead of $3.50 and
upwards. The new price is more
than so per cent below the govern
nent price fixed at the inception of
the war and probably is lower than
mcst mills can meet.
