The most ii.ipoitnnt meeting
ttie history of the Southern C
ton association is now in sess
ut Konilworth inn. The exc
tive eonirnitteo of the aseocial
met today to compiler vital ir
tvrs and besides the commit!
which consists of two from e
cotton State, there aie pre*
many prominent cotton ?nnv
and several of the smoothest t
tun dealers in the couutiy.
The matter of most import!
interest before the commitUi
the fixing of the minimum pt
for which southern farmers sli
hold the new crop. This mat
is undoubtedly bothering the s|
culators for telegraphic inqiiir
have been coming in all day at
ing what the committee's ucti
shall be. riii> will he announc
tomorrow.
1 here is a committee on stai
tics to which has been refert
tbe reports from the diflert
Stutes as to the condition of t
growing crop and the minimi:
price wil1 he based on this repi
of condition. It is stated on (
celleut authority that the associ
lion's reports from all the colt
States are thorough and eotnplt
and the oflicials say they are mc
than willing to compare its acci
acy with that of the govorume
report published today. It c
O ) u/i Wo otnln/1 ? ? 4 ^ 4 - 4 '
hibu uv oluitu viii iimiiuriiy it
the condition will be shown to
less favorable than is indicated
the government report. This w
inevitably make for a bullish t
dency in fixing the minimi
price.
The chairman of the com milt
on price is E. D. Smith, the Sit
president of South Carolii
whose hard work for the Sout
em Cotton association has broug
him a national reputation and w
for him the admiration of all c<
ton men whether growers, bpec
lators or manufacturers.
HEADS FOUR COMMITTEES.
Of the six committees nam
today, Mr. Smith is chairman
four.
There have been various proj
sitions as to the price, some c<
tending for 15 cents as tho mil
mum and others for 12 whileot
ers are even moro bullish. Th
the crop will not bo more th
10,000,000 bales is the genci
assertion and on this basis it is t
gued the price should go ev
higher than last year. A pro;
sition advanced today which 11
with approval was to fix the mi
imum at 10 cents now and nm
a let price at which to sell on t
dates during the season. For i
stance, 10 cents now, 12 cents
October 1st, 12 1-2 cents on t
tober 15th and so on. But t
scheme that will most likely
adopted is to name a minimum
rule during September and th
fix a later date at which furtl
advice will be given. While t
minimum now may be 10 cents
may be 12 in October The pri
will not bo the only importa
matter considered but it is t
most dungerous, inasmuch uf
wrong step ma> wreck the asi
ciation.
Vice President Peters, wht
President Jordan endeavored
depose, is also here and this
another story. Ho will like
bring up the question ot Prei
dent Jordan to demand his resi

^c* bit of advice which can be offered

')e don't leave the staple out in the

cn that way of doing. Tho ware,er
house idea is excellent. It is not
'ie expensive, the product is safe and
I it is always possible to borrow
lc0 money on warehouse receipts.
Even if the farmers reject that
'ie suggestion they can at least put
4 0 tho cotton under a shed where it

Nature demands sleep, and
is as important as food; it
a part of her building and
istaining process. This period
t unconsciousness relaxes the
ental and physical strain, and
Hows nature to restore exuisted
vitality.
Dr. Miles' Nervine brings
freshing sleep, because it
>othes the irritation and rcoves
the congestion.
It is also a nerve builder; it
Mirishes and strengthens cvy
nerve in your body, and
eates energy in all the organs.
Nothing will give strength
id vitality as surely and
lickly as Dr. Miles' Nervine.
"During the past winter I lmd two
larks of 1-aOrlppo which left me
