^ ADVISES FARMERS HOW TO PROCEED Harris Gives Four Commandments *o F o"m I Four commandments will have to be kept by the farmers before they will be able to put the price on their -j own cotton, which is their right to do, says B. Harris commissioner of agriculture. These are, he says: i?1 9 Avrr'iiiivo ;> ?1 <1 , A. Ul?Cl JU;\ , ?, ui^tuu^v cooperate; 3, build warehouses; 4,: have a fund. "The farmers must diversify theirj crops to the extent that their farms ; must be self sustaining. W'nsn they ( i do this the cotton crop is half fi-; Inanced. '"They must organize and cooper-: ate not alone with other farmers, j bin. with the merchants and bankers i [ jsmd business men. Get them to join L the American Cotton association, j m Why? Because the cotton crop is j ^ the money crop, the backbone of all j finance, all prosperity, all business, | all progress, all improvement, all ed- j ucation of the South, ? and always | will be. It is up to every man, no j matter what his business, to get be-j hind the cotton crop and make it sell | for a profit to the grower over the . cost of production. If this is done, and when it shall be done, the South W will be the richest country in ' the ft world?for it is the most resource1 ful. Final success can be attained | only by the complete organization of i all the people of the South. I "Now, as to warehouses. These I , should be throughout the South in I number sutficient to take up the slack R in the crop. Then receipts can be I issued that should be regarded as ne| gotiable scrip in any country. No ' better collateral can be had. I can not say much about any of these points without repeating much that 1 ? J? nnirl Vlll f- if Jq -q nas au"eau,y uccu omu, wwu ** lesson which bears repeating and the people should learn it thoroughly. "The fourth commandment which I wish to urge upon the people is to organize a cotton fund to let out loans upon cotton?this fund not to be a general banking proposition, but to protect cotton. For when a bale is put into a warehouse it must stay there until the spinner will pay the price set for it by the American Cotton association. % "If the farmers will adhere strictly to these four commandments they ^ ' ..m... .1 mmm ?p?

If the farmers will observe strictly these four jreneral principles and put business methods beh'nd their vericulture tluy will never airain s e short staple cot'o middling and above, sell . 2* less than oO cents per pound. "When these four things are don? tho South will come into her own ana will in ten years bet one of the richest countries in the world. I am greatly in earnest about the organization of a cotton bank. The American Cotton association can not ro""d out its usefulness without doing: this. Such a bank could help the local banks to finance distress cotton, for that is the cotton which always controls the price, it is the deciding factor in this equation and w? must have it on our side to win. Su<*h ** cotton bank could make it possible to protect a farmer from having his loan called and payment forced so a> to turn this cotton over to the bear [speculator whenever h? wa~ts if. The cotfon situa+;on can- not he srtTv| ed definitely and permanently with[ out it." GREAT TAX BILL n*tn DV WATinM r 1 IS U 1 iin * ?V?1 , _ ' South Carolina Contributes More Than Twenty-Six Million. j Washington, July 26.?The nation's greatest tax bill, $5,410,284,! 874, was collected during the fiscal 'year ending June 30.
