For Members of the Cotton
Association
Freight Rates and Storage
Discussed by District Director
It has been asked by some
of the members of the Cotton
Growers Association, “What
about freight rates and stor
age?” As a director of the
Association,"I take this method
of giving such information as :
I can. i
All members when ready to <
ship cotton will be advised as <
to what compress to send it for *
storage. When it is delivered 1
to station and bill of lading 1
obtained, consigned to the As- 1
sociation you are then entitled 1
to a loan on your cotton.
The freight will be taken i
care of by the Association and 1
you will not have to bother >
about that, and you will be ex- <
pected to ship it as fast as <
practicable and it matters not *
whether you ship a bale or a (
car load at a time as the freight t
will be the same, that is, so t
much a bale regardless of the •
number shipped. As soon as t
the cotton is delivered at the t
station and bill of lading re- '<■
ceived, showing that the cot- I
ton has been properly con- t
signed to the Association it <■
automatically becomes insur- t
ed against loss and the Asso- •
ciation takes charge of and im- <
mediately becomes responsible
for its value to the owner. <
The question is asked by t
some, “Why select some com- <
presses to store cotton and <
leave out others?” The com- <
mittee who was appointed to >
pass upon this matter investi- 1
gated thoroughly the advis- I
ability and feasibility of cer
tain compresses throughout the
state and after making a care- i
ful investigation as to freight
I
rates and amount of cotton
which should be placed in the
different compresses found
hat it would be much less ex
pense to assemble the cotton
ts the compresses which they
(elected because the freight
•ates are loss, compresses bond
(1 and generally well located,
considering the volume of cot
on to be placed there, and the
nore cotton stored at any one
>oint the better it will be on
iccount of the cotton having
o be placed in pools accord
ng to sample and grade. To
llustrate: Suppose that 2,000
ales were placed in storage
d a given point at one time
mtl consisted of twenty grades
livided into that many pools
md the Association had an or
ler for 1,000 bales of a certain
made and type and in that
ompress we had only 400
tales of that particular grade
md type, we would then have
o be at an additional expense,
issembling the other 600 bale1
rom some other point where
he cotton was placed in other
om presses, thereby making
he expense much greater and
abor more burdensome on the
• wner of the cotton.
The expense must be held
town as much as possible and
he plan worked out and
idopted is to the best interest
>f the members of the Asso
iation, and this is the only
eason that we have selected
he compresses at the ditierem
mints throughout the State.

DISSATISFIED FARMER MAY
LEAVE ARK.
Distance Lends Enchantment to
the View and Long Trip May Result
A subscriber writes the
Journal that he is discouraged
and out of sorts and imagines
that he can do better some
where else. He hasn’t decided
whether he will go to Texas
or New Mexico or the far West
where such stories of wonder
ful climate and bumper crops
have come. From the tone of
his letter he seems to be dis
gusted with old Arkansas and
has decided she is too slow for
him.
Not being overrun with a
mess of trouble crediting up a
lot of cash subscriptions the
editor of this paper unlimbered
his typewriter and wrote the
fellow as follows:
"Occasionally a good man
grows dissatisfied with Arkan
sas.
‘‘The milk is too yellow or
the honey Is too sweet, and he
desn’t like them to flow over
his land anyway.
“So he parts wtih his farm,
j sells his live stock and other
; things too numerous to men
tion and removes to Oklahoma.
__“Once the^e he uses his Ark
ansas money to buy a farm,
which today is and tomorrow
i is not, because the wind has
] blown it away.
“Or perchance, he tried
Colorado and slushes in the
mud irrigating a strip of land
so narrow that a cow can’t
jump into the field without
jumping over it.
He hears ofToxas and goes
down to hunt the bag of gold
at the end of the rainbow.
"In the daytime he scratches
j the sandbur out of his flesh
‘and centipedes and horrid frogs

crawl over his flesh at night.
1 “When his money is gon
I he feels like he did the first
night he stayed a\y#v from
home.
“He yearns for good old
Arkansas and that yearn stick
in his throat and chokes him
until the tears come into his
eyes.
“He would give a year's
wages to see the cows standing
at the bars of his old Arkan
sas farm and hear the old fa
miliar call to supper and the
bark of the hound dog ‘round
the kitchen door.
“Memory is a marvelous
painter and paints best th -
things we love best.
“It pictures to this man far
from home corn silken fields
he once owned, the cotton
stretching away in a sea of
white as pure as snow.
“He sees the green meadows
the fields of ripening wheat,
and as in a dream the orchards
of ripening fruit appear.
“It shows him the trees whis
pered to his children at play,
points to the roses in the cor
ner of the fence and with infi
nite detail paints a thousand
things that touch the heart and
reveal he old home place.
“Happy is the man who
wakes from his sleep to find
that he has wandered away
from dear old Arkansas only
in his dreams.
“Take our advice and think
twice, before you leave.”

COTTON CROP GOOD
BAXTER CUONTY
Mountain Home, June 27.—
The weather has been ideal for
the cotton crop since planting
began. Seed germinated well
and came up a full stand. The
crop is in perfect condition,
clean and growing well. A
seed shortage prevented a larg
er crop being cast. No boll
weevil or other destructive in
sects have made their appear
ance, and if conditions remain
favorable, a good crop will be
gathered.

KAN AD UNCHANGED
FOR 24-YEAR PERIOD
Howard, S. D., May 18.—
Persistent, consistent and insis
nt advertising is the theory
m Dave Theophilus, a local
, ,-ain elevator operator, who
has carried the single line
leader. “Dave Theophilus sells
alt,” continuoulsy in the How
id papers for the last 24
rears. Mr. Theopilus has re
ceipted bills to show that in
,he nearly quarter century it
has run the ad cost him ap
proxiniately $60. He esti
mates it has been the means of
filing 16,000 barrels of salt
besides indirectly aiding in
manv other sales.
Keeping Everlastingly
At It Makes Adver
tising Pay!
Consider the ease of Dave Theophi
lus. For thirty years he advertised
salt continuously. He sold over 13,
000 barrels of salt, the same adver
tising resulting in a great number of
additional sales of different items.
If you have something worth the
