Cotton Worth 12 1-2 Cents
Says Mr. M. L. Johnson.
1 hat the actual value of cotton
today is 12| cents is the firm be¬
lief of President M. L. Johnson, of
the Georgia division, Southern
Colt in Association, who says in
his statement to the producers this
week:
“The bear raid on cotton is ap
pearantly breaking, and from now
on I believe we may confidently
expect better prices.
“The actual value of cotton to¬
day is 12*4 cents and in my opin¬
ion it is more. It cost us 10 cents
to make the cotton. To sell it a
actual cost of production means
debt, often ruinous debt, in the
preparation for making next year’s
crop.
“It appears from the informa¬
tion received at this office that we
have not had that cooperation
from those who have control of
our money, which we had the right
to expect. The producer is being
called on to pay his debts, and
there is a continued and persistent
effort to have the crop sold and
marketed at once, while on the
other hand the buyer has no trou¬
ble m getting all the money he
needs.
‘Indebtedness thus is the cause
of all our trouble and will remain
so until the yoke is thrown off. If
we expect to control the next crop
we must prepare for it now. We
must get free of debt and put our,
selves in an independent position
which will enable us to ba\e a say
in naming our terms.
i ( Millions of the proceeds of the
present crop will go to the west
and other sections for meat, grain
forage and other necessities. As
leng as we neglect to raise these
crops at home, making cotton
largely a surplus crop, so long
must we continue in a state of
financial mediocrity, ever con
fronted by the specter ot ruimous
debt, perhaps of bankruptcy.
4 t Plainly we have got to reverse
conditions, taking in for our own
crop more than we pay out for
others, or financial disaster cannot
be averted.
( 4 The cotton market is now Var
ing out the accuracy of my
dictions. False reports of a large
crop are ceasing to have their
feet and the price is slowly nd
vancing in spite of them.
“The farmer needs 12)4 cents
for his cotton, It is worth it now
and he ought to have it. Unless
he gets it he will not be prepared
as he should be to make and mar
ket next year’s crop.

Gossip.
Talking recently to a highly, in¬
telligent, well educated and suc¬
cessful man, a resident of Spartan¬
burg. I got his impressions on the
decline of the use of platitudes in
the pulpit and by the press and al¬
so his idea of the fast disappearing
spread-eagle style of oratory. He
believes that any speaker or
preacher who depends on elaborate
efforts,big words and stock phrases
to hold his audiences will not have
large crowds and will have poor
attention from those who are pres¬
ent; that the day for that sort of
thing is past. Any man, whatever
his reputation or his subject must
have something to talk about, talk
rapidly, clearly, simply as he can,
j and quit when he gets through.
I» t!ie ol(ipn days the orator .
needed nearly an l.orr to clear n.s
throat, make apologies and distrib
ute compliments before getting
down to the business ot telling how
the American eagle with tnellifiu
ous plumnge and ethereally sur¬
veyed itinerary spread his gorgeous
ensign in the multi tinted transept
of the skies and whirled his eager
way from the heaven builded
strands of New England to the
golden shores of that land where
the overwhelming glories of the
day imperceptibly banished into
mantling twilight hushed and
wondrous still, Then another
hour was taken up with a discuss¬
ion, the essence of which a modern
newspaper would put in 15 lines.
Long sentences, ponderous phrases
big words and swelling periods
were the vogue, The speaker was
smart enough to give the audience
what was wanted.
One of the most striking and
complete tributes I have ever heard
to a man’s clear and effective
speaking was a remark made by an
old lady in Greenville county—in
regard to Dr. Jas. C. Furman, one
ot the ablest and most scholarly
men this S. C. has ever known.
Dr. Furman had for many yaars
prenched at a country church and
the people were greatly attached to
him. When he became infirm he
sent students from the university
j in Greenville to fill his place, and
of course they experimented with
high-flown essays and elaborate
efforts. This old lady a staunch
member of the church, and honor
ed by all, said: • « Those are smart
young men and I hope they’ll do
lots of good. They preach fine
sermons, but I do want to hear
poor old ignorant Dr. Furman
