A COTTON COMMITTEE.
Which Is Seeking Co-operation Among
All the Associations.
J. M. Pearson, of Memphis, who is
working in the interest of co-opera
tion between all the cotton growers’
associations, and says he is a member
of both the Southern Association and
the Farmers’ Union, said recently that
he had secured the passage of a
resolution through%joth the Memphis
and New Orleans Conventions looking
to the creation of a national cotton
committee, whose purpose is outlined
in the following resolution and re
port of the Committee:
“Moved, That a permanent commit
tee of three be appointed by the
Chair, having power to fill vacancies
therein, whose duties shall be to pro
cure all available State, organization
and individual aid that they can ap
prove, for the purposes below stated,
and at their discretion to merge with
similar committees from other organ
izations.
i nt*j Mjitn esiiiuji&xi ucauquauciD
and adopt such form of organization
and such rules as may be required
to canvass each cotton-growing coun
ty in this country.
“They shall procure pledges from
the cotton farmer that they will pro
duce sufficient food and feed or
something other than cotton to ex
change for these neccessities, publish
ing their names in their respective
counties, or otherwise, as they deem
best. •
"They shall procure all possible aid
from the Stale and national agricul
tural institutions to aid our people in
correctly and profitably utilizing every
unit of human energy in the South.
“They shall collect and disseminate
available information and statistics
that will further and protect our cot
ton interests, on which depends our
social and economic welfare.
"They shall encourage the dealing
in spot cotton instead of future con
tracts, if for no other reason than
because low rates of interest, insur
ance and warehousing will enable the
purchaser to carry approximately so
much spot cotton as future contracts,
thereby stimulating instead of de
pressing the price of spot cotton.
“They shall from time to time rec
ommend to cotton growers such con
cert of action as in their opinions
will result in the common good.
“This Committee of Three shall
submit to this meeting plans for mak
ing this work effective."
The report is as follows:
We. Your Committee appointed to
perfect an organization for the pur
pose of procuring pledges and other
matters pertaining to cotton interests,
as well as plans for making this work
effective, submit the following report
and suggestions related to this work:
It is apparent that financial sup
port to carry forward this work is
immediately necessary. We are con
vinced that if this matter is properly
brought before our people there will
be true loyal sons of the South who
will consider it a pleasure and a priv
ilege to thus aid in this vital under
taking.
Nervous Women
For nervous, tired women, we recommend Car
dui Cardui is a woman’s medicine. It acts speciti
I cally on the female organs and has a tonic, building
effect on the whole system. It contains no harmful |
ingredients, being a pure vegetable extract. If you
suffer from some form of female trouble, get Cardui
at once and give it a fair trial.
CARDUI
It Will Help You
JJ5
Mrs. W. W. Gardner, of Paducah, Ky., tried Cardui and writes:
*1 think Cardui is just grand. I hare been using it for eleven years.
I am 48 years old and feel like a different woman, since 1 nave been
taking it. I used to suffer from bearing down ains, nervousness
□ and leeidessnees, but now the pains are all gone and I sleep good.
E* £ highly recommend Cardui for young and old.” Try it.
AT ALL DRUG STORES
Therefore, we recommend that those
present at this rnee ing are hereby
requested to make such liberal con
tributions to this cause that it will be
a credit to this meeting and an ex
ample worthy of being followed.
The press of the South is hereby
requested to lend their valuable serv
ices in giving publicity to these needs
Each paper in the South is urged
to at once institute a campaign to
raise money to sustain this movement, j
We also recommend the Chair appoint i
a committee of three from each cotton !
State to act with and under ins true- i
tions from this Committee to solicit
aid and otherwise develop in sym
! pathy with this task.
We also reuuest our Board of Di
rectors to aid this work with such
financial support as may be available
or needed to insure the efiicieney oi
this important campaign.
Mr. Pearsons said that, the Farm
ers’ Union had appointed a committee
of three, consisting of himself, W.
T. Loudermilk, of Texas, and T. T.
Wakefield, of South Carolina, and the
Cotton Association in Memphis hau
also appointed a committee of three,
of which he was Chairman.
Under the authority of the resolu
tions he had merged both committees,
and they would now appeal to the
farmers and others for funds with
which to carry on the work outlined.
Agriculture, as it is beginning to
be followed at present and must be
in the future, demands the growing
of sheep, and they must be good
ones.
The local warehouses are a standing
menance to the cotton speculator. Not
only the cotton actually held in them,
but the fact that they furnish pro
tection makes the speculator more
careful not to contract sales as low as
he otherwise would. No union man
wants to destroy the local warehouses.
All want more of them and larger
ones.
“Those who take up the sword shall
perish by the sword.’’ This is a truth
which all recognize who expect the
Farmers’ Union movement to succeed.
Success in Farming.
Intelligent farming s'ill pays. The
farmer is less affected by panics and
fluctuations of the market than the
merchant or the manufacturer. in
the United States we have practically
reached the limit of our tillable land.
Our population is rapidly increasing
by immigration, a majority of wiiick
goes to the large cities. Thus, the
demand for faint products steadily
increases. To meet this demand a
larger production must be realized
per acre. More than ever before a
comprehension of the principles un
derlying his business is necessary for
the successful farmer
One of the factors in the farmer’s
success is a knowledge of his soil and
its requirements as to fertilization
and tillage. An appropriation of the
benefits of drainage is essential to a
larger production. Proper tillage to
conserve moisture for the use of tue
| plant at its critical stage of growth
must be understood. The plant food
necessary to the highest development
of a plant and the supply which a
given soil will yield, can be deter
mined only by careful study and ex
perimenting.
Anotner item in success is tne prop
1 er definite rotation of crops to soils.
; The benefits of a definite rotation
have been abundantly proved. A wise
| choice of varieties makes a big dif
; ference in the returns derived from
| a soil. It has been shown in Indiana
that with exactly the same conditions
of soil, climate and tillage one va
j riety of corn may yield as much as
43 bushels per acre more loan anoth
er. Similar differences have been
noted with regard to wheat and oats
| varieties. Then again, it must be
! folly to attempt to grow grain crops
on land which will wash badly and
i which by nature is fitted tor grass and
fruit.
The young man who is contemplat
ing engaging in farming will do well
to prepare himself to the fullest ex
tent possible by careful study not
only of books but in some of the va
rious courses in agriculture given at
the agricultural colleges.—Farmers’
Tribune.
Helena, Mont.—A Montana agricul
tural association was formed at a
| convention held here a few days ago
j of the farmers of the state. The
new organization will appeal to the
legislature for laws in the interest
af farmers, dairymen and poultry
iaisers.
This is the season when manure is
piled up against the side of the barn
to leach and the best part to flow
away into the creek. Haul it out on
the land and spread it as soon as
possible.
Sounded Peculiar.
I “I heard a man talking yesterday
] about bifocals and torics.”
‘Oh, 'hat was eye talk.”
"I’m Triest if I didn’t think It was
| rye-talk.” __
