Mr. McDonald Has tho Association Sized Up Correctly-Sign v Up. Cotton-growers of Oconee, listen! In South Carolina there are moro than one thousand cotton buyers, nine hundred book-keepers, between six and seven hundred weighers and over twenty-six hundred laborers that handle our cotton annually. They have ari got to live. Some of them are honest, but some of them are rascals. Some grade your cotton right, while some under-grade il. Some give, good weight and some do not. There are hundreds of bales of : samples rebated each year that add more profit, to the .cotton vb^vj^pj | present system for marketing cotton is rotten. Wo are paying annually more than a million dollars a year in this State to get our cotton to the manufacturer. This sum of money that we are losing would send every child In Ononee county to a seven months' public school for fourteen years. 'Besides ? there ls an annual loss of an average of more than 17 pounds per bale, caused by weather damage, cutting rind handling, ship ping and reshipping.' There ls not one of our cotton buyers of South Carolina under bond. He is free to under-grade or under-weigh, and we aro absolutely at his mercy. We are not .graders, neither are we cotton merchants. We cnn do the big, hard job-we can raise and deliver it but we can't market it. Why not? Because we are not organized, lt has been the cry for generations gone that we won't stick. Why havo we not stuck? di ec a use we have no confidence in one another. Wo now have the co-operative marketing plan, which has been tried in some of the smaller countries of Europe successfully for more than fifty years, and by the fruit growers of California, the peach and water melon growers of 'Georgia. They never made any money until they went to selling co-operatively. Tho cotton growers of Oklahoma have proven to us that lt is the only sen sible way to market out cotton. The average loss in weight and damage is very small. The men who handle our cotton through this association will be heavily bonded. Tho greatest part of this market ing system is that we have to stick Tho greatest "buggar" to some ls the five-dollar organization fee. They would rather pay the 'fifteen or twen ty dollars per bale of cotton through the old system. The only man that is knocking it is the cotton mer chant. Don't be misled by him, for wo are going to put him out of busi ness, and he feels rather sore at tho prospect of hunting a now Job. If every preacher, teacher, doctor and business man would preach and talk this eo-operat've marketing doctrine to all their customers, South Caro Uno would have every bale moving through this system in two years. Let us turn our business of mar keting over to a few good, well bonded men, and in ten years we will bo setting the price on cotton. Men, sign up-for your wife's and children's sake-sign up for God's sake-and help stop so much gam bling in cotton, (Hadn't you rather do business through a fow woll bonded mon than VL ITANTLY REPORTING FROM 1800 F LUBRICATING OIL IN THE NEW ?BILES.
