PUBLISHED WEEKLY. WINNSBORO, S. C., WEDNESDAY. SE-PTrEMBER 20, 1905.ESALHD184 FAIRFIELD FARMERS ENDORSE. a t Action of Southern Cotton Associa- r tion In Fixing 11 Cents as Minimum t Price for Citton. Steps Taken for t Building Warehouses. The meeting of the farmers tilled for Monday was well at tended. Court was adjourned at 12 o'clock, so that the farmers could hold their meeting in the court house. At first it looked I e like the meeting was going to be one of the farces held of late, but soon the farmers began coming in and before the hour for ad journment came, there was a good attendance of farmers in the court house and they had that business air about them that L -signified that they meant more than mere talk. Immediately after the meeting was called to ordoc by the presid 'ent, Mr. S. C. Catheart, the follow ing resolution was introduced: Resolved, That it is the sense of the Fairfield Cotton g Association thtt the action of the I Southern Cotton Association in fixing the minimum price for cot ton at 11 cents be endorsed and that th e farmers of the county should hold their cotton for that price. A number present made some b very appropriate remarks on the same and after a full discussion h the resolution was passed with out a dissenting vote. A fter this matter was disposed J. ' of, the practical problem of tak-I C ing the necessary steps for the building of a system of ware houses in the county was taken I ti up and was discussed in a most I di businesslike way. Mr. McDonald' introduced a resolution that a g committee of five be appointed for ,the purpose of getting out a charter for the Fairfield County Warehouse Company with a capi tal of $25,000, in shares of $10.00 each. The following committee was appointed: J. E. McDonald, r D. L. Stevenson, J. P. Caldwell, rE T. W. Ruff, S. C. Cathcart. With such a committee as this it is1 very ivident that something will be done.at once.. The seuimentJag of the whoqle house was most' decidedly in favor of the move ment. While it is recogniz -d that the resett warehouse fatcil ities in the county are all right as far as they go, there is by no ci sneans enough, and this commit tee will go to work in earnest for pNpplying this warehouse neea. Che following committee was tr appointed for the purpose of arousg1)an& interest aimong the farmers of their respective sec tions in behalf of furthering the interests of the Cotton Associa tion and to acertain what assis- hi tance will be rendered in the de organization of the proposed W warehouse company. 3, II.

TIhe fai.'ners pre~ent took this call r' al se:iously apd in : just a pair of mninutmes had couigh- h .ed up the dough to the extent of $50.00, in a manner that was n< wost crditabite to their deter- w ainationt to assist ia the work of g alifting the conditi.n of the ui Seathern farmer through orgsmi zation.j ' Thie, work of perfecting the1 si local organizaticfns is recognized IS esone of the greatest needs of p< *be Association.
