RECORD BREAKING GRAIN
TRAFFIC,

1 "The railroads have made wonder.
1ful record during the past few weeks
in the handling of the grain movement
which has exceeded in volume that for
| the corresponding period of any pre-
vious year, says the Railway Age in
an editorial in its current issue. "For
the eight weeks ending August 27 the
loading of grain. and grain products
was 465,839 cars, as compared with
302.623 in the corresponding period of
1920 and 381, 736 in 1919, and from jan
uary 1 to August 81, this year 1,4S6,-
954 cars were loaded with grain and
grain products as compared with T.
195,485 in the corresponding period of
1920, and 1,424,416 in 1919.
"The fact that this heavy early
movement has been handled practical
| ly without complain of scar shortage is
due not only to the lessened demand
for box cars for other kinds of traffic
this year. but more particularly to the
careful plans made to avoid car
shortage which it was feared might de-
velop because SO large percentage of
the cars are in bad order. On August
Is there were 1876 per cent. of all the
freight cars in bad order and 1872 per
cent. of the box cars, The plan of
campaign adopted was to exert un-
usual efforts to confne the cars that
were fit for grain in the grain traffic
and to keep them from being diverted
to other traffic, which might necessi-
tate Ye-coopering, if not more extern
sive repairs, before they could be used
again for grain. Officials and inspec-
tors both Of the car service division
Of the American Railway Association
and of the service bureau of the .n-
terstate Commerce Commission have
been stationed at the principal CEN
ters of grain traffic, and by persistent
efforts to bring about an adherence 20
car service rules have managed to ac-
.complish practically shuttle service.
between the grain fields and the ele-
vators, which has enabled the recori-
breaking traffic to be moved with un.
usual expedition.
''In addition to the fact that the crop
in the southwest ripened this year a
little earlier than usual, 1t Is under
stood that the grain producers lave
been hurrying their shipments to mar
ket in order to realize the cash as
early as possible. Secretary Hoover
II the Department of Commerce is
quoted as saying that the unprecedent-
ed exports of wheat during August
should react favorably on agricultural
md business conditions throughout
the country, and should particularly
ease the credit situation In the grain
territory. The. movement so early Of
SO large portion OF the years crop
should also relieve to very consider
able extent the strain which IS US
ually felt by the railroads during the
TALL months. On August 81 they still
had surplus of 6S,93S servic fable
grain cars and In eight months of tals
year the roads have moved 81 per cent.
Of the amount of grain they moved in
twelve months in 1920"

NO "No-coTToN' YEAR.

Complete agreement with the Morn
ing News on this matter of "no-cot-
ton year" is expressed by the Admission
Star and the Mobile Regisater, two
Alabama newspapers. Commenting on
the expressed opinion of the Morning
News, the Register says: "The above
| is SO true and SO well said that the
farmers of South Georgia should be
glad that they have access to such
wise counsel, says the Savannah Morn
ing News. The best way to combat
the boil weevil is by following The
cultural methods advised by state nd
federal authorities. The best waygto
standardize the price of cotton is to
raise goor cotton and market it CO.
opera lively in accordance with the
ordinary principles of salesmansl1fp
that govern the marketing of manufac-
tured products" One of the greatest
principles to be lived up to in the
cotton belt is to make Gotten such a
surplus crop that the grower and no.
body else may say when it shall be put
on the market. The whole trouble
with cotton in the past has been that
the growers produced too much of it
ard were compelled to take orders
from somebody else as to when to
sell.
1t is merely common sense, that if
the cotton growers do not clog the
market and do not have to sell their
cotton unless the price suits them
they can make it sure enough money
crop, profit crop. OF course the
grower of cotton has to use business
judgment about marketing. There are
times when common sense will tell
him to sell, if not all, certainly some
Of his holdings. General business con-
ditions will govern him in that, even
II he has plenty to live on without
touching his cotton. The fact that it
costs money to hold the staple is an
other consideration he must not lose
sight of. Any value that is tied up
and is not bringing in interest is cost
ting something; money is going out
instead of coming in. 1t costs money
to hold on to cotton. 1t is for the
farmer to decide whether he can afford |
to hold, or should sell. He must use
business judgment. However, the fun
damental thing is for him to be in a !
position where he can use business
If he has to sell as soon
as he picks, whether or not business
sense would indicate that he should !
do so, If he has no way of living un-
less he does sell his cotton, he has no |
opportunity to apply business prin-
ciples.
Again, the idea OF no-cotton year isl
not in the interest Of the farmer. II |
there could be such a hiatus in cot |
ten growing the chances are that in |
the Following year every acre that pos |
sibly could be put under cotton would |
be put there, and the boil weevil, de-
spite the rest for year, would be on |
the job. Some farmers might make
some money, but every big crop would
mean downward moving market, |
whereas If the boil weevil should be |
active many farmers would |
make little or no cotton and they |
would have to sell that as soon as |
picked because they had put all their
: crcage under cotton The best thing
to do Is to make cotton strictly sur
plus crop in III, South Let the farm
os provide fer his wants at home out
side OF cotton and then he can com
mand the market. He has no other
certain way to do it.
