Two Ways to Help Get Belter I
Prices for Cotton.
The l’vo*rc!*»ivp Fat mer.
Every fall the c<itton-grow<*rs of (lie
South have a great deal lo say about
l etter prices for cotton and how to (ret
them. The usual talk is of bolding lar
better prices, or of combining to con
trol prices or marketin' methods. With
every such movement ihat rests upon a
basis of Round business policy The Pro
gressive Farmer ia in hearty sympathy;
but there are other waya to secure bet
ter prices for cotton. Indeed, it. is nec
essary for the farmers of the South to
dive more thought to the quality of the
cotton they place on the market, if they
are ever to get the prices they should
for their crop. How can they do it?
Well, here ia one entirely practical way
pointed out by Prof. .1. F. Duggar in a
recent address;
“We make a mistake when, after
heavy rains that beat out a part of the
the cotton, vie pick up that soil-stained
cotton and put it in the same bag with
the unstained cotton. It seems to me
that the lowering of the value of 1 * all
the cotton produced by the inclusjan of
a few pounds of mud-stained coUan re
duces the value of the entire hjlle by an
amount that would more than pay for
the separate picking of the mud-stained
cotton.
"My suggestion is that after a storm
the pickers he required to pick only the
white cotton; then that the Held he
gone over again and the stained cotton
on the ground picked up, kept separate,
and sold in a separate bale.
'‘True, a bale made up entirely of
stained cotton would sell at a lower
price than a bale containing a few
stains, but only one bale in many would
thus contain stained cotton. A few
pounds of stained cotton mixed in with
the white cotton serves to depress the
whole; that is. one pound of stained
cotton will depress the price of say fifty
pounds of white cotton by at least one-
fourth of a cent per pound, which I
think is a conservative estimate. This
would represent a loss of about thirteen
cents for the fifty pounds or about $1,110
per bale. Frequently the depreciation
will be greater than this.
“It will he urged that it iR impracti
cable to go over the field twice within a
short period. In reply to this, let us re
member that the picking up of stained
cotton from the ground is a slow opera
tion and retards the picking of white
cotton. I believe almost enough time
would he economized by leaving the
stained cotton temporarily on the
ground to provide the time and labor
necessary for returning and picking up
the stained cotton separately.
“Stains of another class may be even
more harmful in depressing the value
of the entire product. I allude to the
stainB caused by picking of bolls that
are not thoroughly sound, having been
damaged by boll-rot or by weather.
The same arguments as above could be
made for the separate picking of only
the well-opened, fluffy cotton, leaving
the damaged or imperfect bolls and the
immature cotton to be gathered in go
ing over a second time. There is no ob
jection to picking together cotton that
is stained by mud and that which is
stained by insect injury, boll-rot, etc.
Both may be gathered at the same
picking subsequent to the muin pick
ing.”
Another thing Professor Duggar sug
gests is to plant only one typo of cot
ton, or at least not to mix different
kinds. He says—
“On many farms two or more varie
ties of cotton are grown. In this case,
it will pay to keep separate the seed
cotton from the two kinds, provided the
two make lint of different length or
quality. This would not be necessary
with varieties having about the same
length of lint, hut even in such caseB
separate ginning would he desirable, so
that pure seed of each could be re
tained.
“Indeed, I look for the time to come
when farmers will see the advantage of
every one in a community growing the
same variety of cotton as mutually
agreed upon. In this way all the cotton
produced in the community would be of
a standard and definite Rtaple, and
hence would sell at a slightiy higher
price. If farmers are ever to sell their
cotton direct to spinners, the best way
to bring it about is for each community
to grow the same variety, so that they
can fill an order for large lots of uni
form cotton.”

Speak Well of Your Town
There are few things more discour-
oping than to hears person disparaging
and cilticizing the town in which he
lives. Loyalty to the home town is
one of the pren q lisites of good citizen
ship; anil it is true always Ihnt the beat
citizen, the one who ia most valuable
to the community, is not the one whoiR
constantly complaining and criticizing,
hut is the one who, with cheery smile
and pleasant word of greeting for nil,
alwnys has a good word to say for the
town, if some things are ills; leasing, he
puts forth his best i fforts to enlist the
aid of the citizens in correcting de
faults. The knocker is a mighty poor
asset to the community, even though he
may lie a large taxpayer. The man
who boosts day in and day out, who
forgets the disagreeable things and
talks only of the advantages of his
home town, is the one who is helping
to muko the town better and brighter
and adding to its attractiveness, even
though hia hank' account be small and
his opportunities for helping in a finan
cial way be limited, last’s all boost for
our town and let the world know that we
not only think it is the beat town in the
country, hut that it actually is the beet.
Severe Attack of Colic Cured.
