FARMERS WANT THE WAREHOUSE
One Should Be Built in Newark or
Part of the Cotton Trade
May Go Elsewhere
To The Newark Journal:
I wish to call the attention of
the citizens and business men who
are interested in the upbuilding of
our town to the importance of
building a warehouse for the stor
age of cotton. As .vou all know
the warehouse question has been
agitated throughout the South for
quite awhile, and is still being agi
tated by the Farmers I'nion and
Southern Cotton Association.
And it’s a settled fact that they
will be built in some of our neigh
boring towns, and why not heief
Are we going to lie still and see
the other towns absorb the cotton
market of this section without an
effort on our part to hold it' Of
course the warehouse towns can
and will offer better inducements,
and it's perfectly natural for peo
ple to market their cotton and oth
er produce where they can get the
best price. Therefore I think it
necessary that we should build a
small warehouse, say one that
would hold 1,500 or 2,000 bales of
cotton at, a cost not to exceed $2,
500 or $3,000. I believe it could
be built on the co-operative plan.
If not, just any way to get a ware
house.
Now, Mr. Editor, I am a com
mon farmer and may be mistaken
in my ideas in regard to this mat
ter. Whether I am or not I would
like to hear from some of our bus
iness men on this subject.
