Cotton Growers Need Nervs. Columbia, S. C., July 19.--In an address issued to-day President Smith, of the Cotton Growers' Association, calla apon the county associations throughout the State to at once get together and reorganize for a vigorous campaign to keep the ooming orop oh! the market. He eays that from every State in the cotton belt comes infor mation of crop damsgOj and thst the South Carolina crop is in worss oondi tiOD than for ten y esra. He wants tbs cotton hold off the market during September, for thees are the months tbs speculators ste busy sod the mill men are laying ia their suppliea, re alising that this ie debt-paying tims end an easy opportunity of toeing the small ferme?, to part with his orop. Tba address i>Uo ta: . On access* vf sickness I have ' been unable to keep in t-ouoh with the people of the State through the press. I do not weat soy ons to imsgins thst the work of tba Association hao in 1 anywise lessened. -.. 1 I take this opportunity to cell the attention of all the Associations, to the fact that from every State in the Union there comos reliable informa tion of material orop damage. There seems to be little prospeotofa crop exceeding eleven- million bales. The world ?OQsur?ftd last year twelve mil lies, five hundred bales; the conanmn. tion this year will probably reach twelve million, seven hundred and m a Gloti Opportunity tpv Get I ...- : -, i -i y v< v\> i/ \y. i i . ,' ? . -iv/ y?V vX'-Vy'v** ? ,'. .

Th ore fore, not only for the remainder of tho year, but for ali of next year, thero will be practically no cotton in stock. If there ever waa a time whoa the South* ern Cotton Association aa an organ isation could demonstrate its power, that time has arrived. A strenuous effort alould be made to keep the cot ton from the market during the months of September. Ootober and Novomber, for this ii the time when the specula tors and the mill men lay in their supplies st the lowest possible price. Beoause they reoognise that this is debt-paying time, and that the small farmer, tbe'man who needs the help and who needs every cent that his cotton oas be made to bring, that this is the time he will be foroed to part with his crop. The Southern Cotton Association should bend every effort this Septem ber, ai sooQ as cotton begins to come to the market, to nse its organised authority to keep every bale possible off of the market. Year before last we began the year with considerable stock oarried over from the enormous fourteen million bale crop; this year we will begin the ootton. yeir of 1906 and 1937 with practically no old ootton on hand, and. with the world demanding more oot ton than the new crop oan supply. Therefore, I call upon every associa tion io every county in the State to mest at onoeahd dovko ways and means by wbioh ia every county and ftovrofcbip tbey can make arrangements tc keep the cotton off the market dor* ing the first of the cotton season by all means available. Tbs prospect in South Carolina, as I know from personal observation, is Ibo poorest for ten years. . The country ls being flooded with poor literature; every ingenuity known to the opposition ii being'used to de press tbs pries of cotton. Eternal vigilance ta the prioe of all Buooess and simply beoause we have? succeeded in gaining and maintaining snob a floe prioe for ootton let no man imsgine that the opposition* has weak ened its force at all, for it is fighting moro'vigilantly than ever before. To show you the tremendous pow er of the association, for the first time in. the history of cotton-cotton that ? is chalk and paper ootton which here tofore has controlled ibo prioe of spot ootton--was 100 poiats higher io New York than the spot cotton was ia CG liing Wai ligh Glass Clothing IC MEN'S :tion of 20 Per Co .'\V t ;V' v?* v*' V/*'? **v ' -,y ' " ' vj?r;'-;|??|/g:;:t :',V"'- ... . 3.50 Odd Trousers non 4.00OddTrowsersnon 5.00 Odd Trousers now O.OOOdd Tron?ow not?
