PLANS TO AID ‘ DISTRESS
ED ’ COTTON.
—The American Cotton Associa
tion does not propose to stop
there.
—lt contemplates taking steps
through the organization of a Do
mestic Financing Corporation, to
insure the success of its purposes.
—lt will be the purpose of the As
sociation to assist in financing
“distressed” cotton and to pre
vent its accumulation on a market
unable promptly to absorb it —a
condition which practically every
fall results in a price depreciation
far below the cost of production.
—ln carrying out this purpose,
the Association will have the di
rect assistance of the Federal Re
serve Banking System, and the in
fluential aid of some of the most
prominent financiers in the United
States.
—lt will likewise assist in bring
ing to its aid advantageously own
ed and controlled warehouses in
every cotton growing State.
—ln these the producer will he
able to store his cotton at a mini
mum cost, where it will be safe
from any pernicious control; and
he will receive a uniform ware
house certificate acceptable as col
lateral at any bank.
—Through this system not only
will the producer be properly car
ed for, but great financial assist
ance will be furnished to the en
tire life of the South.
THE PLANS OF THIS ASSO
CIATION.
—The American Cotton Associa
tion proposes to bring commercial
freedom to all tlie South; to so
change rural conditions that the
farm will both attract aiid hold
the white man.
—lt proposes to have representa
tives in every cotton consuming
country to keep you posted con
cerning supply and demand.
—lt will furnish advance informa
tion of the world’s cotton needs,
so that planting may be made to
accord with them.
—lt will tell its members of sup
ply and demand at all seasons; of
crop conditions; of the cost of
manufacturing; of the market
prices of cotton products—in fact
all information which is necessary
to enable the smallest planter to
conduct his operations on a purely
business basis.
—Through its publicity depart
ment, and, as soon as possible, a
weekly newspaper free from poli
tics, it will keep both producer
and consumer fully informed
about cotton —its production, dis
tribution, manufacture and fair
prices for material as well as for
finished products.
—Soil improvement, seed im
provement, live stock improve
ment—these and many other con
structive functions will constitxite
the great work of The American
Cotton Association.

DELEGATES BACK HOME
FROM AMERICAN COT
TON ASSOCIATION.
They Are All Enthusiastic Over
the Convention. Confident Cot
ton Will Continue to Go Higher.
.Messrs. P. R. Smith, E. D,
Treadwell and Green Braselton
returned last week from New Or
leans, where they attended the
great meeting of The American
Cotton Association.
They are enthusiastic over the
work of this meeting, which was
composed of farmers, bankers and
business men of all professions.
Over 500 delegates were present
from different parts of all the cot
ton states and all of these men
were deeply in earnest.
This is the greatest movement
ever inaugurated to control the
price of cotton and thus benefits
not only the farmers but every
man in the South.
To accomplish the results in
tended by this organization there
must be funds with which to meet
essential expenses.
A charter membership, which
exempts yon from all dues until
1 is only SIOO and every hank
er, every big farmer and every
prosperous business man should
pay in SIOO and become a charter
member.
Asa matter of interest to this
section of the state, we mention
the tact that a Jackson County
man who lias this organization at
heart is the first charter member
trom Georgia. The Times refers to
Alt'. Thomas S. Johnson, of Jeffer
son, who has made such a won
derful success of the Farmers

Following we copy some of the
plans of this Association so that
you may familiarize yourself with
hat it aims to accomplish.
