Cooperative MARKETING
Department Devoted to the Pool Selling of All Farm Products

cent of the low price, so that
the farmer who went to market
on the lucky day got over Cne-
third more for his years labor
than did the farmer who was I'M
fortunate in his ginning time.
There is no excuse for such
swings in price. No set of men
in the world except the patient
southern farmer, slow to change,
would stand for it.
Where, pray, is the manufac-
turer who would run plant pro-
/ ducing q commodity which was
likely to sell for $191 on one day
and only $148.50 on another day
during the same month, his cost
of production being unchanged?
There is one certain way to
defeat these radical price swings.
That is by joining the co-opera-
tive cotton marketing associa-
ton in your state.
These associations are not con-
Quoted by prophets or sons Of
prophets. They are conducted
by business men who have en-
ployed the best brains in the
cotton industry to handle the
cotton of the farmer members.
These cotton experts know all
there is to be known about
freight rates, warehOusing, in
surance and selling.
There is one thing they do not
claim to know, and it is some
thing nobody in, the world can
know: when cotton is going to
reach it's highest point, when it
is going to reach it's lowest point
and how much these prices
will be.
But these experts DO know
that they must avoid selling dur
ing the annual dumping period
when millions of bales are
thrown onto the market within
three months by the so-called
independent farmers" and the
price is broken down.
they market the cotton of their
members gradually during the
rest of the cotton year, they will
obtain for these members an av-
erage price, which is not only a
fair price, but is pretty sure to be
from to s cents a pound more
than the majority Of the indie
pendent farmers got.
Who could ask for more than
, that?

S0rghums Compared with Corn

The grain is good for horses
mules, swine and poultry. The grain
should be boiled, as one boils cow
peas, when desired as a feed for
mich COWS. Mix the boiled grain
with wheat bran and cut feed green
or dry; moisten thoroughly with
warm or tepid water; do not make
a slop of the mixture.
When Mr.. LeDuc, then United
States commissioner of agriculture
was experiment. 1g with the sweet
sorghums, east and west, for the
purpose of determining whether
sugar could be economically pro
duced, nearby dairymen bought the
seed at $125 a bushel as a feed for
their mich COWS.
Grain Sorghums Tested in West
Let us study the crop Of 1920 in
three states in which the grain sor-
ghums were cultivated as a grain
and money crop, experimenting, just
as we need to do, the corn crop and,
to a considerable extent, the oat
crop:
Kansas-Averag yield per acre,
DuSuSlS, 900, pIOuuCllOll, DtSi1clS
26, 626 600; farm value, $1S,372, 900.
TeXas-Average yield per acre,
bushels, $40; production bushels, Co.,
992 900; farm value, $73 ,S00,0 900.
Oklahoma-Average yield, bushels
per acre, 26.0; production, bushels,
So, 100 ,000; farm value, $21, 100000.
The general average yield of grain
per acre in the three states, 26S
bushels; average farm price per
bushel, S3.1 cents. The general aver-
age yield of corn per acre in GeOr
gia, 1920 and 1921, i bushels. That
fact points to they desirability, the
urgent necessity for the general in
PRODUCTION and cultivation of the
sorghums as a supplementary grain
and forage crop.
Our corn acreage has averaged
approximately 4,5OO,000 acres. In
1919, we made the acreage 4,S20,000
acres, according to the government
blue book. We had So 900 acres in
sorghums for syrup in 1920, and, in
1921, 81, 200 acres for the same pur
pose. The farm value of the crop
in 1920 was 1922 900; in 1921, ST.
$4,000. The facts are mentioned to
show that we are acquainted with
the sorghums in the matter of syrup
production. Why not turn to the
grain crop also?
Would it not be a genuinely eco
nomic departure to seed one million
acres in the sorghums for grain in
1928? Thing about it.

war brought to Washington. He had
little share in the change himself
He did not grow up with the thing
as the Democrats were forced te
do and he did not learn by painful
experience, by mistakes and eKPer-
iments, what the new legislative
and administrative problems are.
Mr.. Harding and his Senatorial col
leagues were fundamentally un-
touched by the war, else he could
not have said, as he did say just
before election, that government is
after all simple thing.
Failing to learn by experience
what was happening, Mr.. Harding
no doubt sincerely believed that the
mistakes Of the Democrats could
easily have been avoided by the
Republicans. Living mentally in
the days before 1912, imagining that
politics and economies were what
they had been in the days Of ir-
resistible Republicanism, he and his
group thought they had only to take
office, had only to apply the old
Republican formulae, had only to
avoid doing what Wilson had done,
in order to make a triumphant re-
turn to the good old days.
Mr.. Harding knows now in a
vague sort Of way that he was sad
ly mistaken. He knows that gov
ernment after the great war is no
longer a simple thing. and the
country knows now that a reputa
tion for conspicuous ability may out
live the fact.
The experience of the war has for
all practical purposes been lost to
the Republicans. Mr.. Harding
missed it, Mr.. Lodge missed it, Mr..
Hughes missed it, Messrs. MeCum-
ber and Fordney missed it. They
are the Rip Van Wrinkles Of poll
ties. In the face of the new prob
lens Of government they are ANA
teurs who have first to unlearn the
dogmas of lifetime before they
can begin TO learn the necessities
of the present. They are like left
handed batters who, for some rea-
son quite unknown to them, are
called to the plate and
told to bat right-handed.
