DEMAND FOR COTTON GOODS
Will Steadily Increase, Says Promi
nent Sonthern Financier.
Before the National Association of
Cotton Manufacturers at Lenox, Mass.,
last week W. I’. (!. Harding, member
of the Federal Reserve Board and stu
dent of present economic conditions in
the South, predicted that within the
next few months there will be a stead
ily increasing demand for cotton goods
by consumers, and a consequent de
mand for raw cotton both by the mills
and for export. Mr. Harding said:
“I shall riol undertake to hazard any
guesses as to the probable consumption
of cotton within the next few months,
hut 1 will he hold enough to predict
that as the season progresses there will
he a steadily increasing demand for rot-
ion goods by tile consumers, with a cor
responding demand for raw cotton by
tho mills, and witli a marked increase
in the demand for export.
"Of course,” lie continued “as long
as present conditions continue the de
mand from Germany, Austria-Hungary,
Belgium and France will be greatly cur
tailed, but. there should be u good de
mand from Great Britain, Spain, Italy
and from Russia, which can obtain its
supplies independently of routings
through the Baltic Sea. Ship-room is
now available, prompt action by Con
gress has enabled our Government to
provide marine insurance, the Bank of
England is again discounting hills, and
practically ail the obstacles in the way
of exports to all foreign countries, ex
cept Germany and Austria-Hungary,
have been removed. Foreign exchango
conditions have within the last few days
been vastly improved by the formation
of the gold fund, ns approved by the
Secretary of the Treasury and the Fed
eral Reserve Board, and as our exports
of grain nnd cotton increase in volume,
ns they must do in the very near fu
ture, normal quotations for sterling
hills will again prevail.
"Cotton goods are the cheapest of nil
textiles, and should replace during hard
times tiner Rnd more expensive fabrics.
Cotton can tie used in considerable quan
tities as a substitute for jute and othe-
materials in the manufacture of burlaps
and sacks. Mills in Knglaml are re
ported as running double time on khaki
for army uniforms, and there is no rea
son to doubt that the trade will ulti
mately absorb the world’s production.
Cotton manufacturers must solve the
problems which have grown out of the
closing of the cotton exchanges of this
conn ry, whereby they have been de
prived of a standardized price and of
their power to hedge on contracts, and
must overcome the further difficulty,
occasioned by loss of confidence and
curtailment of credits, of financing pur
chases. Compared with the prices that
have obtained for the past three or
four seasons present quotutiohs seem
very low, hut it is doubtful if large
stocks of cotton could be secured at
prevailing prices, as an active buying
movement would undoubtedly enhance
Values.
"It is argued that the Southern States
have produced a cotton crop which, add
ed to that grown in other countries, is
under present conditions about 5,000,000
hales greater than is required for the
world’s needs, and the fear that this is
true is causing much apprehension in the
South. There have been predictions of
general bankruptcy.
"The cause is not hard to find. For
many years the South has been gaining
in wealth and its farmers have been
growing more independent, better
methods of agriculture have been in
troduced, marked progress has been
made in the diversification of crops,
large plantations have been sub-divided
into small farms, and in many cases the
tenant farpier has become his own
landlord. There ia in every normal year
a certain proportion of the crop which
comes in early and which seeks the
market at any level that it can find,
which is commonly called ‘distressed
cotton. ’ This is the cotton that is now
being sold at seven and a half to eight
cents, and it would be well for manu
facturers to bear in mind that at these
figures much cotton will be withheld
from the market for months to come.
"It is true that there is a great
amount of indebtedness which can be
liquidated only by the sale of cotton,
but in view of the increased coft of
production in recent years, sales at
present prices would be in many cases
inadequate for the discharge of these
obligations, so that even if the producer,
being unable to sell his cotton for enough
to pay his indebtedness, should turn it
over to his creditor, many of these
creditors would be in position to hold,
and much of the cotton will be withheld
from the actual market.
"The financing of the present crop
began with its planting laHt March or
April. It is the one crop in the South
on which loans ore always freely made
until it is harvested, and investigations
recently made by chambers of com
merce in Southern States show that ad
vances on cotton in different States,
made from the time of the planting of
the crop until it left the gins, range
from $50 to $44 per bale. The last four
crops, including seed, have brought the
people of the Southern States a gross
average of nearly one thousand million
dollars per year, of which amount about
one-half has come from domestic and
Canadian mills, and the remainder rep
resents the vuluu of exports to foreign
countries.
“By the sale of this crop the South
has been able to not only discharge
its obligations promptly every fall, but
has added half a billion dollars each
year to the national trade balance.
Cotton production is stimulated by high
prices, nnd conversely it is curtailed
when prices fall below the cost of pro
duction. This has been particularly
true in those years when prices were
low throughout the season and contin
ued low during planting time in the
early spring. Never have tile evils of
over-production been so universally ap
preciated in the South as now, nor ever
before has there been such grim deter
mination to hold cotton and to radically
curtail acreage. Public sentiment in
many Southern States has been so
aroused that there is now a general
clamor for legislation by the States to
regulate the production of cotton, and
some farmers have gone so far as to
demand that the planting of any cotton
whatever in 15*15 be prohibited.
"Of course, extreme action of this
kind is not anticipated, but it is un
doubtedly true that should prices con
siderably below the average cost of
production (which is probably about 10
cents per pound) prevail for the next
six months, cotton will be parted with
only us necessity arises, and most seri
ous curtailment in acreage for the next
crop will be the inevitable sequence.
Many of those who might be financially
able to put their lands in cotton would
be attracted by the high prices for grain
and would plant food crops, while oth
ers less independent might be willing
to continue in cotton but would find
themselves unalil ■ to secure the neces
sary advances.
What Would You Do ?
There are many times when on*
man questions another's actions and
| motives. Men act differently un
der different circumstances The ques
tion is. what would you do right now
if you had a severe cold? Could you do
better ilian to take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy? It is highly recom
mended by people who have used it for
years nnd know its value. Mrs. O. Ii.
Sargent, Peru, lnd., says. "Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is worth its
weight in gold and 1 take pleasure ill
recommencing it.” For sale by all
dealers.
"No well-informed man on Southern
conditions will deny that further diver
sification in Southern farming is desira
ble, and that more attention should be
paid to cattle-raising and to the pro
duction of foodstuffs. But it would be
most unfortunate if by any chance the
production of cotton next year should
be so small as to make the trade de
pendent upon the present crop for the
greater portion of its two years’ sup
ply. Cotton goods can compete with
more expensive fabrics only up to a
certain price level, and if a year hence
the prevailing prices for raw cotton
should be as abnormally high as they
are now low, the manufacturers of cot
ton goods will have their present prob
lems aggravated, and would be fatally
handicapped in a movement for trade
expansion at the very time when it is
probable that conditions would be ripe
for efforts in that direction."
In conclusion he said:
"The tremendous waste incident to
war will, of course, be felt all over the
world, and losses will inevitably ensue;
but there is no reason, so far as this
country is concerned, why these
losses should not be so uniformly dis
tributed that they will not fall with
crushing force upon any section, or
upon any industry, and I firmly believe
that American pluck and American en
ergy are going to reassert themselves,
and that American farmers, bankers,
merchants and manufacturers will co
operate with their Government and
with each other in solving present prob
lems, and that they will put themselves
in a position to grasp the opportunities
that the future is bound to offer.”
He Has Seen Worse Days.
Statesboro News.
The cry of hard times in this country
is a faDe cry. In a land that ia liter
ally flowing with milk and honey, as it
were, we hear people talking about
hard times and not being able to pay
their debts, etc.
Why, we have seen the time when
the people had nothing to sell— the
time when the little wads of cotton
that had been made was selling at 3
cents, and to-day every bale of cotton
now on the market is finding a ready
sale at 7A cents. The crop is good, and
so is every other crop. The corn crop
is good, the peas are fine. The best
hay crop ever known has been *'ar-
vested, and in good shape, too. Sweet
potatoes were never better in the his
tory of this country. Sugar cans is
doing fine, and tin* crop of long sweet
ening is going to be the best we have
ever had. The pinders and other food
crops are good. The cattle are sleek
and f.it on the hills of Bulloch, and
there are lots of hogs to fatten and lots
of stuff to fatten them on. Beef and
other meats are selling high. The far
mer never saw a day when things were
better for him. Eggs and chickens and
country butter are bringing fancy
prices, and yet we hear the folks talk
ing about hard times. Why, there
ought to be a severe penalty imposed
on the next calamity squmvler that at
tempts to work off the job on this God-
favored section, where there are a
thousand blessings to one burden.
W. T. Hutchens, Nicholson, Ga., had
a severe attack of rheumatism. His
feet, ankles and joints were swollen,
and moving about was very painful.
He was certainly in a bad way when he
started to take Foley’s Kidney Fills.
He says, “Just a few doses made me
feel better, and now my pains and
rheumatism are all gone and I sleep all
night long.” For sale by all dealers.
"What’s the matter, little boy?”
asked the kind-hearted old gentleman
of the youth who was yelling lustily.
“Boo hoo, boo hoo.” sobbed the boy.
"Come, come,” soothingly said the
old gentleman. "Don't mind, don’t
mind. ”
"I didn’t,” shrieked the boy, ‘‘an’

Good Advice to the South.
Now York Evening World.
If a nation-wide cotton bargain day
to boom the Hale of that useful commod- ;
ity will help lift the cotton trade out of
the dumps, let's have it.
But ut the same time let's seize the j
opportunity to point out to the . South !
that its economics are bad; that when
it slakes everything on its cotton yield
it shamefully neglectB the food-produc- !
ing possibilities of its soil, and that if it |
continues to put all its eggs in one bas- |
ket it cannot expect the Secretary of 1
the Treasury and the country at large
to come to its rescue every time the
basket collapses.
The South has got to wake up to the
plain fact that to cultivate nothing but
cotton is waste and indolence. The
Southern States can grow a greater va
riety of foodstuffs at less cost than any '
other section of the country. Further- i
more, they can grow forage and supply j
green pasturage for stock every month I
in the year.
The Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic
Railroad Co. is carrying on a vigorous
campaign to convince the people of
Georgia that the remedy for periodic
depression in the South lies in winter
cover crops. As General Passenger |
Agent Croxton points out: "If our far
mers woull aLcept our advice and pro- i
ceed at once to grow sufficient food ,
crops to feed themselves, with a little I
to spare, we would at this time be im
measurably better off. This cotton de
pression, however, will surely prove a v
blessing in disguise, and beyond doubt j
will do more than anything else to help'
carry home to the farmer the practical!
business wisdom of our food and cover |
crop propaganda.”
Why vast cotton fields should lie i
brown and barren during many months
of the year when they might easily be
producing rich returns of vegetables
and hay is one of the puzzles that the
Northern travellers naturally explain
by “Southern shiftlessness.” Every
body understands that at the present
moment the South is desperately call
ing for help, because the war in Eu
rope has played the mischief with its
cotton markets. But surely the cotton
producers cannot believe that when
ever things go hard with them they can
create popular demand for cotton by
appealing to sentiment.
It can hardly be expected that the
rest of the country will always come to
the aid of a section which risks its pros
perity on a single product and lets high
ly productive soil go otherwise to
waste.

that my kidneys needed treatment. A
