AGRICULTURAL OEPI. OFFERS GOOD ADVICE Atlanta, Ga., September 18.—Dire-.' tor L. 13. Jackson cf the Georgia State Market Bureau has made a special in vestigation into the subject of the pre vailing price of cotton and find-, that there is no apparent reason why the price should be as low as it is today. Statistics show that within the past twelve months consumption has ex hausted production by over three mil lion bales, which was provided for only by the big surplus of 1914. The government estimate for 1917, Mr. Jackson jioints out, shows that there will be a short crop, and there is ev ery indication that the surplus will in- exhausted. Comparing the price of cotton with the price of wheat, Mr. Jackson shows that where wheat sells at $2.20 per bushel, the *>rice fixed by President Wilson, cotton ought to sell at 28c per pound. This Is arrived at by a comparison of the prices of wheat and cotton covering a long period of years. For this reason, the State Market Bureau urges farmers all over Geor gia to hold their cotton and not to lei it go at prevailing prices. In his pre sentation of the subject urging the farmers of Georgia to hold their cot ton for better prices than those now prevailing, Mr. .Jackson says: “During the pas* ten years the price of cotton has averaged 11 cents, and wheat 87 cents per bushel. On this basis, $2 wheat is equivalent to 2Jo cotton, and $2.20 wheat is equal to 28c cotton. The com)>arative prices of the two for the ten year period have been: Cotton Wheat per lb. per bu. 1915 11.2 92.0 1914 7.3 98.6 1913 12.5 79.9 1912 lI.S 76.0 1911 9.6 87.4 1910 14.0 88.3 1909 14.3 98.6 1908 9.2 92.8 1907 11.5 54.7 1906 10. 66.7 “The southern farmer will be in good financial condition this fall, and he should resist declines in cotton by stubbornly holding off the market. Es pecially is this so during the next three months, when there is unusally a tendency to try tc sell too fast. We shoinid have at least 25c, or more, for our cottcn^—‘and we will get it if we market our crop gradually..” * * * The opportunity is presented for Georgia farmers to secure some of the best breeding cattle in the country at prices which are paid for beef. The Bureau of Animal Industry of the United States' Department of Agricul ture has just brought it to the atten tion of the Siate Department of Agri culture that there is an enormous num ber of high-gradge Herefords, togeth er with some Short Horns and Angus, for sale in Texas, and unless they are bought for breeding purposes within the next thirty days, they will be sold for slaughter. According to the information reach ing the State Department of Agricul ture, these cattle can be purchased at 7c to 8 l-2c per pound, a very reason able price, considering the value of other classes of-meat animals. High grade heifers up to 18 months old may be had at S4O to $45 per head and good grade cows from 2 to 6 years old at S6O to S7O each. It is said that these animals are ki strong enough flesh to stand a long shipment. The State Department of Agricul ture considers this one of the very best opportunities ever presented to Georgia farmers for securing at rea sonable prices high-grade cattle for breeding purposes. Georgia will be looked to more than ever within the next years fqr an abundant supply of meat and for many years to come it Is going to bring high prices. The Central of Georgia Railway Cos., lias bought 540 of these Texas breed ing cattle of the Hereford and Short Horn variety and these are now on their way to southeastern Georgia to be distributed over farms. Any infor | mattoix-on the subject which may be | desired may be had by applying to i the State College of Agriculture. \ Athens, Ga. In the event that anyone ; should wish to take advantage of this ! opportunity, there should be no delay about it, as all of these cattle will he ; disposed of either for breeding pur |K>sos or slaughter within the next month. * * * The work of cattle tick eradication | in Georgia with a view to making this state ultimately one of the great cat- i tie producing sections, has been given a materially added impetus within the next few weeks. The Georgia I .and Owners Association, comprising prom inent farmers and land owners throughout South Georgia, has taken hold of the matter in earnest and in their meeting at Tifton Saturday showed that they are thoroughly de termined to see that the cattle tick is stamped out of Georgia as soon as possible, and that the opportunity is met in every i>art of the state for the I growing of high-grade beef. The Department of Agriculture calls i attention to the fact that preparations should be made now for beginning the , dipping of cattle early next spring to prevent the tick getting started. It is a comparatively easy matter to get rid of the cattle tick in any county where the proper precautions are taken through a brief period. The farmers of every community should get to gether on this proposition now and provide for cleaning out the cattle tick next year in order that they may engage profitably in the cattle busi ness. The time is rapidly approaching for state and county fairs all over Geor gia, and according to information re ceived by the Department of Agricul ture, some magnificent exhibits will be made this year, both from the stand point of the results obtained and from that of education along agricultural lines. The department is enthusias tically interested in these fairs and appeals to all farmers and members CM, C'COCMICK HITES ODD FELLOWS At a cabinet meeting of the Grand Lodge officers of the grand jurisdic tion of Georgia, I.
