SOUTH'S ONLY HOPE
CUT IN COTTON ACREAGE


Columbia, Jan. 17-Requests for
additional farmers pledges which are
being received daily at the headquar-
tiers of the South Carolina division of
the American Cotton association in
this city would Indicate Officials say,
that the pledges are being freely sign
ed. 1t was said yesterday by officials
., of the association that practically 40
instances of farmers refusing to sign
the pledges had been reported to
headquarters.
You may rest assured that old Alb
beville county will do her full duty in
the matter of reducing cotton acre
age for the year of 1921" says Capt.
G. N. Nickles, president of the Able
VILE county branch of the association
in letter to state headquarters yes
terday. He said that the meeting at
Abbeville last Monday was well at
tended and that the acreage reduction
plans met with approval of the farm
ers and business men.
George G. Price, president of the
Lexington branch, reports that farm
ers of his county are enthusiastic for
the movement.
+. G. Thomas, president of the
Clarendon county branch, has written
for additional supply of pledges for
Clarendon county saying that the
farmers were signing them freely in
that county.
W. ID. Morrah, president Of the Nc
Cormick branch. wrote that the mcr-
chants and banks in that county had
agreed to take the initiative in secur-
ing pledges from the farmers.
Stressing the necessity for sharp
reduction in acreage year, the South
Carolina division of the American
Cotton association has issued state
ment in which he says:
There are today about 100000
bales of American cotton on hand.
with consumption requirements now
indicated for less than 1O.OOU,OOO
bales by August 1, 1921. With pros
pectlve carry over of 1900 600 bales
next year, the planting of normal
acreage in cotton this year Will be a
simple suidical policy, not alone for
the farmers but for every business in
terest in the South
There is but one sensible solution
of the problem under sucn conditions
and that is to reduce the cotton ac-c-
age on every farm so that not exceed
ing half crop-Or 100000 bales
will be harvested in 1921.
The American Cottor associat ton
is waging an intensitive campaign in
every cotton growing courty through
out the belt to reduce the cotton acre
age % per cent. by signed pledges
from farmers, bankers, merchants.
cotton factors and fertilizer dealers.
The business interests of the South
are squarely behind the campaign
and thousands Of farmers are daily
signing up the pledges and are deter
mined to cut their cotton acreage half
in two.
The future OF the South is at
stake. The only way to prevent dis
aster is to cut the acreage in half, ~
crease the food and feed CROPS and ad-
vance prices to cost of production
plus reasonable profit"
1t is said at the headquarters Of tho
South Carolina division vest crday that
merchants OF the state wcre signing
their pledges very literally and that
the bankers were also signing the
banTs pledges very freely.
