Conwell himself wouldn't be

self.
The highest paid man employ
ed by the cotton associations of
the south is c. B. Howard, who
for twenty-five years was the
active manager of the biggest
cotton business in Atlanta. He
gets a real salary. He is a real
man, specialist.
Yet he is sales manager for
eight state co-operatives, and
his pay is apportioned among
them. When his pay is divided
by the worth of his UNIQUE
service and among eight asso-
Citations, he is one of the cheap

cotton direct from the Georgia
or Arkansas, Oklahoma, or Car
DINA warehouse to the spinner
in England or France or Spain.
The cooperative principle as
applied to selling cotton is with
out d flaw. You can take the
records for fifty years and see
for yourself that the farmer
has always been a victim of
Crop-dumping. The Sapiro plan

But the plan won't work with

agement.
You can't get efficient man
ayers for farmland wages. And
if the Georgia Cotton Growers
association ever makes the mis-
take of supplanting good men
with cheap men, the whole
thing will blow up.
The cost of handling the crop
by the Georgia association this
year has been higher than it
will ever be again. For one
thing, an organization had to
be created. That cost will never
recur. For another, the failure
of the crop last year threw a
heavier proportion of "over-
head" expense on each bale
handled than had been expected.
Two hundred and forty thou
sand bales, on the 1921 produc-
ton basis, were signed up. Only
$4,000 bales were delivered. That
was unavoidable, but is not like
ly to happen again.
Yet when the years work is
done on July 81, and the figures
are publishde I believe every
business man in Georgia will
be amazed at the smallness of
the cost of handling the crop.
1t will be less than the
amount the producers of that
cotton would have lost by hav-
ing the buyer class it for them,
instead of having their own
graders do it.

A S the cooperative market
~ irg movement gains mo-
mentum in Georgia the
press of the state generally is
giving it's strong endorsement.
Most of the editors have a cor
rect understanding of the sub
ieCt and see that it has accom-
plished a great deal already and
has still greater possibilities for
the future.
All that the Georgia Cotton
Growers Cooperative associa-
ton, the Georgia Cane Growers
Cooperative association, the
Southwest Georgia Watermelon
Growers association, the Geor-
gta Dewberry Growers associa-
ton and the Georgia Peanut
Growers association need in
their extension work is an I'M
derstanding of their principles.
Unfortunately some of the
papers of the state do not I'M
derstand the subject. And, sad
to say, there are a few small
papers which oppose it for the
most absurd reasons.
For example, / have read the
following editorial paragraph in
a small but influential county
site newspaper:
THE articles sent us for pub
LEGATION about the cotton associa
ton does not appeal to us. 1t
requires too much money from
the farmers to go into the peck
cts of office men sitting up in
the shade"
Now isn't that typical of the
sort of thing that is holding
Georgia back-Georgia that
should be the richest state in
the Union?
This editor puts himself on
record here as preferring that
the farmers of Georgia should
sell their cotton for 20 cents a
pound or less, as 80 per cent of
the so-called independently did
last fall, instead of getting &c
cents or more, as our associa-
ton members will.
And what is the reason he
gives?
That "to much money from
the farmers goes into the peck
cts of office men sitting up in
the shade"
An utterly untrue imitation,
but how typical of the sort of
hell and damnation" rot that
has been fed to Georgia farmers
for a good many years!
I happen to have a thorough
knowledge of the management
of the Georgia Cotton Growers
Cooperative association.
1t is doing this year a $9,000,-
