Farmers' Union Prices is 11 cents. f If the 10 cent minimum for cotton 4 is considered a victory for the conser- i vative element of the Cotton Associa- I tion, then the whitewashing that i Cheatham got at tilje same time must I be a victory for the cotton gambling I element ! - If the prices for-labor, mules and many other things that are in it too c produce ctton now are double wihat I it was when we got 5c. for cotton, I there is no nire profit in loc. cotton c now than there was back yonder when i we got only 5c. for cotton. 6 If you can't, get profitable prices c for your cotton, what is the use of i selling it at or below cost and keep r on climbing up a greased pole and ; then sliding down again, busting the bottom out of your constitution i against the hard ground?

About the Cotton Association Mini mum Prices. That was a great big ski), hop and t a juiip forward and upwards that the Cot ton Association made when it dis covered the leakage at Washington and jumped from 1le. for eotton. But Ihey have made a h- of a fall backiards when t1hey tiulmlbled from 15e. to 10c. for cotton, and virtually mlade an at tempt to screen Rehard Checatham in his associations with cot ton gamblers. Since the rules of the Farmer's Un ion forbids admit tance in thle order of any one except farmers, some of our best Union men think that we need some sort of ani organization wvhiere IE RACKET! ~ESS, ra everything. rery Week. sy Ross, $2.00 quality, $x-39 p Skirts 42c. to 98c.

ACKET, ~os. arth. the "hole business fraternity of the South can meet with the producers of Ootton inl ole grand council for the ommoll good of our whole interest, whose prosperity deppnds upon pro Fitable prices for the South's great noney, crop, cotton. If it is true that the cotton farmer Ias made a fine crop this season this rood fortine belong to the farmer who lug it out of the earth, and the far ner can keep this good fortune foi he use of himself if he will only join i a concert of action among cotton )roducers to take his cotton back ioie from off the streets every time hat the price drops below 1le. If you owe bills don't dodge your reditor but go right up to him like a nan and, if you cannot arrange mat ers with him to help you keel) your ottoi off of a glutted and depressed narket, then your last chance is to tore your cotton in a warehouse and ive your creditor the benefit of all hat yo can get on your cotton. Be ure to act honest and square with rour creditors every time and then ,ou can't help from feeling comfor able about it. When we come down to earnest umsiness consideration of the present otton market, it is much easier now o raise the price from 10c. to 1le.. han it was to raise it from 7c. to 10c. or our '04 crop. In '04 our Farmer's Jiiol.nmembership was less than 400 housad 'ndembers; now our member hip goes over 600 thousand and cot on farmers iow owe less money and ave more food erops, too. WhelN we take into consideration hese facts that as our Iemibers pro uce froil a few bales each up to 100, t( now, anld then soie reach 500 to ,0O bales, it would appear to be a calsonlable calcilation to put tle Un on at ail average of say 15 hales. 1ow, if the Union will retire from the larket. an averaoe of only five bales a(hI, tis WoIuld talke in hand three liiolion bales and mIlake it easy for the Aion to deianld ant(d get profitable 'rices for their eotton. There i n -vting amoii' I dic fact hat the growers of cot tol should have he aid of, Io.st all other bui6siness oe upationls in the South to hack them n 'their efforts to maintain profitable rices for cotton in the belginning of lie season, and it is to the mutu1al >enefit. of our whole interest to io it. As cotton is king we should like the ame ''Southern Cotton Association.'' The business farmer teed not. lose my prestige, manhood or anything by lis participation in a cotton Confer mee for the good of the whole coun Iy. In fact, the Farmers' Union men ould gain much business knowledge >y this rubbing up against business nel inl other occupations. If the Cotton Association could mr.-e fromi its memberslipi all that -ofton gambling elements, no dolbt 'a rme.r 's Union mcmi could then claim tini withI them and join in with them vith sonme degree of confidence in 1amint ainmiing profitable prices for cot on. Thle farmef' ini the South wh'lo has 1ade a good crop of cot toni and sells it 0 a)1profit, hats addled just thle amount if his profits to the wealthI of the southI. lie has gained just the amount itf this profit to his own wealth with ut making anybody poorer. These rofi ts thus defrived--~that ca n only be ad by pirofitale prices for cot ton nables (lhe farmer to pay off all his ills. The merchants amid supply men et their profits, the banker gets his nt erest,* the feritil izer mn get thirm wrofi ts andu the munle-mnan exchanges is w~hite paper money for legal I end r an is( 1$tremiend(ously happy. Best of LIl, t here is still money -left to pay lie preacher, thle dloctor and thle school eachers. Look at the dlifference. Suppose ve all get alarmed at our ownm sne(cesa n making a fine crop--thle very thing ha t wr st ailed out to (10 in thle be inning of ~thle year-and t his being lhe very I hin g, too, that all those cred tors oft uirs wishied for, an thl len thle a rmeiris .el to rusing and( racing vit h each othier to see who enn'O get hi ir e. t 14n off first before it falls n pri.

Then'u all our cred itofrs become ilairmied, t oo, amid a reguilar panieW aikes pla1ce, leaving the whole of' our nterest thle losers wvhere fortune hould have smiled upon every inter st in the South. The wealth created by the farmers f the South has been squandered by mprndent marketing of our money rop for many years, when if the >usiniess men of the South had come o the aid of the farmer at the right ime all Ithis great loss that has gone o enrich foreign interest might have incen placed to the credit of the gen ral prosperity of the whole Southern sountry.
