A three-year cotton plan to
place the -•resent method of cotton

John W. Shinholser, owner of In
dian Island Farm, at Milledgeville,
Go.
The plan differs from the plan of
the Committee of Twenty-five put
before the recent Farmer's Conven
tion only in one controversial fea
ture, of that plan, the method of
control.
The following is
ithe plan:
‘‘This plan which might be called
the Shinholser Plan would be man
datory instead of voluntary. It would
ipply not only in Georgia, but in
every state from California to Vir
ginia, with a uniformity not to be
attained in any plan depending on
voluntary co-operation of farmers.
"This progressive plan covering a
tergej period of three years recognizes the
hnpossiblity of jumping out of this
depression, but the necemity
working out of it. Also the futility
of attempting to market at a profit
in 1934 a fifteen million bale crop'
before the purchasing power of our
peopl» and that of other nations has
greatly improved.

The Quentin (California) prison
bulletin reports one prisoner
kept track of all the food he
eaten during the 15 years as ar
mate. His record shows 2,157 ham
burger balls, 32,860 slices of bread,
4,976 cups of tea, 9,950 cups of
coffee and 270,000 bvins.

‘Hie ninth million gin tickets would
bear tax of $5 each. The tenth

Known as over-production tickets
would bear a government tax of
$10 each.
'The 1935 control permitting
eleven million bale crop would be
on the same general plan, except
that nine million gin tickets would
be distributed, and the government
tax might be reduced to $2

million.
T.n Million Fra. Ticket.
The 1936 control plan permitting
twelve million bales would be
the same general plan as the two
preceding years, except that tickets
would be distributed.
"The one important feature of
the plan is that the last one million
ticket* of each cotton year would
not be distributed until and during
a period in which the price of cotton
is above 14 cents.
