To the Memberd of the Farmers’ Iducatlonal and Co-Operative Colon where, Especially to the Cotton rowers: Having Just closed a conference In hicli the best Informed co:ton grow ers from every faction of the South, have been present and talon part, we deem it important to call your at en- tlon to the facts as they present then - selves. We have produced a cittou crop of not to exceed 11 • )0 u bales. The cost of producing this cotton has ranged from 8 to 15 cents per pound, according to the adaptability and fertility of the soil and the favorable- uess and unfuvorablemus of the sco rn. The market supply of cotton, the price aud demand for manufactured products, fully Justify a price of 15 to 18 cents per pound for middling uplaud cotton. This Is ndmltted by the spinner as wdll ah by all well-in formed business men of every profes sion. A few numbskulls are still re peating, parrot like, the expression so common three to eight years ago: “Ten cents a pound is pretty good.” Those prehistoric individuals fail to make any allowance for the fact that land which then cost $12 to $15 per acre now costs $25; that the mule which cost $115 now brings $200; that the laborer who was glad to work lor 50 to 75 cents per day must now have cents to $1.50—absolutely knust have It if he provides his family with the common necessaries of life. These fuetH Are as familiar to you as the rising and setting of the sun, as the changing of the moon. The ques tion before ue«*Js, can we win this flight and how? Wo will say to you with full con fidence, we .can. How? Not by un derestimating the strength of the enemy; not by saying, "Let her rook and Hhe will come around all right.” We must realize thatf war hud been decluitd, a war of subjuga tion and extermination—the subjug ation of the Farmers’ Union. We must not for a moment believe that we have anyone to look to for help. We must win this fight our selves. It is the old, old story of the lark In the wlieht field. We are not unmindful, or unappreciative, of the fact that many of the merchants and bankers of the country are our friends and allies, realizing as they do that our succors means the prosperity of all. Neither are we blind to the fact that not a few of them are too narrow-minded, sordid and selfish to consider the public good. This class prefer to keep the farmer in poverty, because oilr extremity Is their oppor tunity, and 2 per cent per month looks good to them; while they are rapidly learning from experience that the farmer will not pay over G or 8 per cent for money unless driven to it from necessity. We repeat, there ls war existing to day, and we cannot expect to be the victors unless we are ready not only to make the sacrifices that war us ually calls for, but we must watch every move made by the enemy In the effort to outflank us and take our position. Efforts are being made in Georgia and other Southern states to make us believe that the Texas and Oklahoma framers are selling their cotton, while in the West they tell you that Georgia, Alabama and Caro lina planters and other states east of the Mississippi are selling. We want to brand these statements as absol utely false. All the cotton states are represented In this council, and we say to you now that never were men standing more loyal by their pledges than are the Union’s farmers today. Every effort to force sales strength ens our determination to stand firm and hold for the legitimate, reasonable price fixed by the National Union. Not a state, nor a delegate, voted against the minimum price of 15 tents per pound that wai named, and lot one true Union man is going to go back on it today. It has been thought possible to make U3 lose sight, of the question of price and make the important question: "Can J get cash?” Bah! We know that th nanks of tne South have, ac least, the usual amount of cash, not an inconsiderable yortlon of which is subject to our •luck. The South, as a whole, was never in better*, financial condition than it is today. True, we have many poor farmers, and much distressed cot ton has H^en forced on the market;but let us assure you that it has been less than ever before, and there is a con certed movement now on the part of all who will take every bale of cot ton off the market within six weeks. Hold your cotton, whether you feel able or not. We can do a lot, of things My steadily increasing patronage is the best evidence that I am giving the Best Drag Store Service.

YOUNG, Vice Pres. BANK OF CEDARTOWN, Cviliii'town. G«. vrhen it comes down to the test that do not seem convenient. Huy your neighbor’s cotton who must sell, or aid him in any way you can to hold it. To the man who Is constantly ex pressing his friendship for the farmer quote the Spanish: "He Is a friend who grinds at my mill." Every man is the practical friend of the cotton farm er today who buys one or more balcH of cotton and holds it for the min imum price, or who aids the present owner to hold over. Our patriotism (?) is appealed to by persons who urge us to sell to relieve the money stringency. The financial stringency ls not our mailing. Selling our cotton would not create more money, neither should Increase public confidence in the scoundrels who have been cutting such a swath in the financial world. We acknowledge that we should be "our brother's keeper," but we refuse to recognize the exploiters of frenzied fluanco as our 'brothers'' until they have reformed, and brought forth fruits, meet for repentance. We will, without special complaint, pay our share of the $11,000,000 in In terest which Uncle Sam Is assuming in order to raise money for the relief- of tho situation, whatever that may be, but we most positively refuse to sell our cotton for 40 per cent loss than its value in order to raise money for anybody—not even new clothes j jor the family or toys for the chii-1 drm at Cnristmas tone. Tne wap is I on. Stand by your co-ton, and when any man tells you that farmers ill | otlii r states are deserting the ranks j in large numbers, he is either woeful ly ignorant or a wlHyl liar.
