farmer, and responsible to the farmer,
and the higher the prices they get for
the farmer the more certain will they
be of continued employment and good
salaries.
AT a risk of little repetition, let's
sum up the whole matter this way:
Under the present system, the main
voice in naming cotton prices is that
of the cotton buyers. They are the
keenest, best informed, best financed,
and most resourceful group in the
cotton marketing game. And 1t is to
the interest of the average buyer to
get cotton cheaply as he can. Conse-
quently he becomes naturally and in
evitably bear influence on cotton in
the way just illustrated, and the cot
ton prices suffer accordingly.
Under the cooperative marketing
system on the other hand an equally
conspicuous factor in the markets will
be the selling agent, employed by the
farmers cooperative selling associa-
tion-selling agents who will be just
as keen, just as well Informed. just
as resourceful, and just as we'll finan-
ced as cotton buyers are now. 1t will
be to the interest Of these selling
agents to sell cotton as high as they
can, and by knowing the full market
price for every pound of high grade
that Is offered, the cooperative mark
citing association will become the most
permanent bull influence the cotton
market has ever known, the most
powerful agency for holding up prices
and >pfeventing their depression by
unwise and ignorant selling.
'In short, the present system of SELL
ing cotton is n bear system that un-
doubtedly forces down cotton prices
below the proper level every year that
comes. The cooperative marketing
system will be bull system that will
prevent the selling of cotton below it's
real worth and thereby become fac
tor to hold up or boost prices every
season that comes.
(which system should farmers
choose?

HANDLING OF COTTON
Clarence Poo Tells How Dumping and
Careless Selling Affects Price.

1.-THE selling and dumping Of cotton
by individual growers, under present
conditions, is one of the greatest con-
ceivable bear forces on the cotton
market. 1t is one of the strongest
possible forces for breaking prices
every fall on every pound of cotton we
SELL 49,,
SO writes Clarence Poe. member
of the Organization Committee of the
n. c. Cotton Growers Cooperative
association. In further developing
his idea, he says:
Suppose farmer has good mid
ding cotton that is really worth at
the time 1t is offered 21 cents a
pound. Suppose a buyer says to him,
L will give you II cents for your cot
ton. Suppose the farmer finally gets
10 cents. Then when another farmer
comes along with good middling, Mr..
Buyer says: We'll, 1 have just bought
a bale as good as yours for 10 cents
or We are paying 19 cents for this
grade today The result Is that the
second farmer Is likely to take 1s
cents also. And so on with other
farmers who come to the market. And
the same depression in prices is forced
by all other buyers Of the less scrup-
ulous sort. cor course there are many
buyers who want only fair profit, but
the farmer cannot discriminate.)
Now. what happens further? The
average price paid for cotton on that
market that day is reported. Then
the average for all grades is seen to
be considerably lower than standard
market prices. Consequently, word
goes out that Farmers are letting cot
ton go at such and such a price; why.
pay more? And on q thousand mark
