(Seventh Article.O


The preceding six articles of fiji.
series have fallen short of their pur.

ton upon these three points:
First, that the Sapiro plan, applied
to cotton, better than any other
scheme suggested, short of unre.

Of cotton prices in the interests of
the cotton grower, will tend to sta

Second, that, outside of the i'm

If we add to these two points one
which will be demonstrated in the
concluding article on "The Sapiro
Plan and the Nation"-namelv that
the general cotton-buying public, in
Guiding, of course, all soutnerners,
will not suffer from the new market
arrangement, the conclusion that the
Sapiro plan for cotton will be a

not be avoided.
In view of all that has been said,
the thing should be so obvious as to
need no elaboration here for any in
telligent person, and no time will be
consumed in stating truths which
should by this time have assumed
the acceptance of platitudes. But
the Importance of these truths will
be better understood upon a reali.
zation of certain others.
One of these is that correct CO.
operative marketing of farm pro-
ducts is the most available and vital
aid to agricultural prosperity to
which the South can give attention
Another is that, at the present mo-
ment, correct cooperative market
ing Of cotton is the most important
phase of this matter to the South.
The third is that the entire South
must demand Of its farmers that
