Committees appointed by Ilarvle Jor dan. president of the Sea Island Cotton Growers* Association and president <»f the Southern Cotton Association, are At present engaged In formulating the provisions of the charter and will make a full report at the annual meeting of the association to be held In Valdostai Ga., early In January. Twenty-nine counties in Georgia and Florida are interested In this movement. Already the planters have secured Warehouses In each of the counties and their long staple Is stored and sold In lots of 1G0 bales. Sixteen of these counties are In Georgia and thirteen are In Florida. For the first time In thirty years sea Island cotton Is being sold for 30 cents per pound. At the recent i convention held In Lakeview. Fla., this price was agreed upon as the minimum and tho planters have been standing by the agreement. One lot of 400 bales was sold last week, each bale bringing $150 The association represents about 25.000 planters, who grow annually from 75,000 to 100,000 bales of the long staple. This j*ear the crop will hardly amount to more than 60,000. A letter from K# G. Schell. Lake Bulla. Fla., secretary* of the associa tion. received Thursday morning by President Ilarvle Jordan, says that Sea Island cotton Is now bringing 31 cents per pound on the open marklt. "We are all sitting together," says the letter "and sitting steady In the boat. The outlook Is very bright and there Is no reason why we should not hold our own.” "The farmers there," said President Jordan, "are pooling their crop and selling It In large lots through their own representatives. They have the sit uation at their command and will dic tate the price. I see now that the staple is bringing 31.5 cents. "Their cotton holding and buying proposition Is being formulated pretty much along the lines as adopted by the Southern ration Association. The char ter will be applied for within a short while and It will have a substantial backing.” OPERA GLASSES Not only make a handsome gift, but one of lasting usefulness.
