THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1C Situation From Cotton Factor’s Standpoint fIDGUSTS COTTON FACTORS SHI THEY ILL HOLD GOTH FOB CUSTOMERS UNO ADVANCE ENOUGH MONEY FOR THEM TO PICK REMAINDER OF COOP No Factor Forcing Customers to Sell Cotton Who Bring in Enough to cover the Advances to Them COTTON ON WHICH FACTORS ADVANCE MONEY SHOULD BE BROUGHT TO THEM Majority of Factors Believe it a Good Idea For Those Need ing Little Money to Sell Some of the First Pickings---The Views of Augusta Cotton Men The Herald is presenting today some views on the cotton : ituation from the standpoint of the cotton factor. The factors are the people who advance an nually large sums of money to the fann ers to have their crops made. In the spring of the year thousands of farmers throughout this section of Georgia and South Carolina, from the one-horse ne gro venter to the planter who makes several hundred bales, goes to his factor to make financial arrangements for the year. The factor advances him money and guano in sufficient quantities to make a crop and in most instances takes a crop mortgage as security. in the fall of the year the farmers bring their cotton to the factors and, after deducting for the advances in guano and money and the costs of handling the cotton, the farmer gets the proceeds. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are annually borrowed from Au gusta banks by cotton factors to Ad vance on the crops. The opinion of Augusta factors is for farmers who owe money to bring their cotton to the factors for it is not tne property of the farmers until they pay back the money which has been ad vanced. However, Augusta factors are • not forcing the farmers to sell their cotton. They say that they will hold the cotton for them, but must have it in the warehouse so that the factors can make a showing to the banks. The farm er owes the factor and the factor owes the bank, so the factor has no showing whatever unless the farmer brings in his cotton and stores it. The advice of AugYista factors to farmers who do not owe any money on their cotton is to hold it. It does nt mat ter much where they it. If in a warehouse it is safer from fires and is not liable to be stolen or damaged by bad weather. Many of the factors, and indeed, pro bably a majority of them believe that the farmers who -need a little money should sell the first few bales because of the uncertainty as to how long the wai will last and also because t-e cotton is green and heavy now. Duration of War Uncertain. is what one factor said: are not forcing our customers to sell their cotton and we are glad to h™ l it for them when they bring us enuogh to cover our advances to them. We are. of course, advancing enough money for the farmers who deal with us to pick out the remainder of their crop. count of the uncertainty as tc> how long the war will last we believe it 10 lie a good idea tor those needing any money to sell a few bales.;’ Another factor said: "We are willing to hold cotton for customers who owe us money. Provided they cover amount due us for advan made during the spring and summer with which to make the crop. “Most of farmers will have to be Po vided with funds to gather the crop, some are using seed for this purpose, but so long as we can do so, advance enough to pick the cotton and continue holding for thoße . ,nonF tome*-s to whom we have advanced mon ey With which to make the crop and who takes'annually about ten mil. l ;u f e T Su-pe “w^agert A^ r rw n ou C rd U sCg*e n s°t th tf those who need ? 0 u ilrffrst i rw'uru%M balance’of ’*op. tor it is by means certal Every One’ Should Co-operate. qtill another factor: "Even one should co-operate in mak ine an earnest appeal to the farmer that >!¥ bring his cotton to his creditor, BOYS’ SCHOOL SUITS -at- One-Thlrd_Off Made by the Best T ailors.

It is unec essary to state that self interest, if nothing else, will prompt every factor to co-operate 10 his tulle extent in keeping all the cotton possible off the market at this time. * ‘‘We stand ready to advance sufficient funds to gather the crop, it our farmer friends will send the cotton to us as it is ginned and baled. “In view of the fact that no one knows how long the war will last we believe that any one needing a little money may do well to sell some of the first of his crop. Cotton just now is green and heavy and will lose one cent per pound in weight in a few months.” This is from a factor: “I dm nett forcing any one who brings his cotton to me to sell it and I shall hold it indefinitely. I am ad vancing as imuch as ten dollars per bale on it so that the farmers may pick out the remainder of their crop. As long as I am able to I shall ad vance $lO per bale on cotton shipped to me whether by my customers or r.ot, and will hold this cotton until the price goes up.” SALVATION ARMY MEETING THURSDAY NIGHT AT 8:00 An interesting and helpful open-air service will he held by the Salvation Army at the corner of Crawford Ave nue and Broad Street, West End, on Thursday night at S o’clock.

Encouraging II is reported that the Buy a Bale movement purchased a considerable number of bales in Augusta for in vestment yesterday. New Orleans has started a Ruy a Bale movement and merchants and the public are co-operating with the Cotton Exchange to take distressed cotton off the market. City after city and county after county throughout the south are joining the Buy a Bale movement. The movement is rapidly spreading all over the country. The West is reaping a harvest with its big crops and high prices and the indications are that a great deal of this western money is coming south in the near future to help in the hold ing 'movement of the south’s cot ton. New York reports the successful handling of the 100 million city bonds issue, and expects a considerable In vestment of foreign funds in the se curities of this country. Farmers, merchants, banks, and the investing public are all standing sol idly together in the effort to protect the south’s great crop of cotton. Cotton seed prices are advancing a little and farmers are getting a little better price for their seed. A great deal of cotton is being held on the farms in the seed, much is being ginned and hauled back to the farm, and where the price Is not satis factory, farmers are also hauling their seed back to be used as fertilizer for the oat and grain crops they except to plant this fall. On all hands and from every side comes the news that the situation is getting better each day. When the rush to export foodstuffs is over, foreign demand for export cotton is expected to spring up, which will further holy the cotton situa tion.

Cherry have been very alow. It seems that Cherry left Augusta on Baturday. He was seen accom panying his wife and child In the di rection of the depot, carrying a suit case, hut It was not ascertained If he took the train with them. But as far as Is known he was not seen here after Saturduy. It Is thought now that Mrs Cherry knew beforehand of her husband's in tention to leave here, Mr. Fred Gehr ken, Cherry's employer, having no ticed that Cherry was bringing in leas money from collections than bethought ought to he coming In, had expressed his Intention of going over Cherry’s route himself on Monday.

The disappearance, also on Saturday, of tbs 17-year-old married woman whose name had been associated with Cherry's, naturally led to the assump tion that they had gone off together, but so far no direct proof of this has turned up. It is reported toduy that the young lady ha* been seen, alone. In a station up the Georgia road and that her husband has gone up to look for her and bring her back. The fact that Cherry’s letter to his employer, confessing the shortage arid saving he hoped to pay it back In the course of time, was posted from Mi con, I* of course certain proof that Cherry himself 1* not In Macon. He would undoubtedly have got somebody to post the letter somewhere else than where he was.

The woman absolute ly refuees to divulge anything. When threatened with the police she said that they could lock her up If they wanted to but that ahe would not say a word.
