They are GOODI to see the county sign up 100 per cent strong" FARMERS CONTROL THE TRI-STATE ASSOCIATION All directors of the Tobacco Grow ers Co-operative Association met in Raleigh a few days before the open ing of the South Carolina tobacco marets and took final measures to insure the orderly marketing of the crop of the members from that State. They predict that the organized growers of South Carolina will enjoy far better prices this year because of Co-operative Marketing. "The demands for tobacco of the old belt and the unfavorable crop oendi tions in Eastern North Carolina this year create a situation very favorable to our Association," said R. R. Pat terson, General Manager of the Leaf Department, who states that members of the Association who enjoy the ad vantages of orderly marketing will profit by largely increased prices for their product. Oliver J. Sands, Executive Manag er of the Association reported that $4,000,000 has bee nassured to the Association already, in loans from the banks of Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina, and that other strong lines of credit in addition to the $80,000,000. loan of the War Fin ance Corporation have been offered to the Association, John W. King of Greensboro was i elected Director to fill the place of the i late John M. Gallaway, and E. G. Moss, Director for Granville and Per son Counties, N. C., was appointed i to fill the place of the world's larg- i est tobacco grower on the Executive < committee of the Board. Both Mr. King and Mr. Moss are practical to bacco farmers and men of affairs, Mr. I King being president of the ware- t house corporation for western North Carolina and Mr. Moss director of I the Experiment Station at Oxford. Members of the Association ex press satisfaction in the continued I appointment of experienced farmers and tobacco growers to positions of high responsibility upon the Board of Directors.

Hurt of he Association, himself a large to pacco farmer of Southside Virginia, eferring to the policy of the Asso iation in an interview at Raleigh eadquarters, said "The successful ontinuance of large scale co-opera ion with human and financial ele nents combined, requires more skil ul management than a big corpora ion which is chiefly financial. In he corporation you lose sight of thte uman side, for you are dealing with oin, and not with personality; in uccessful co-operation we must take he man as well as the product -into he Co-operative and here the human lement cannot be -lost." Comparing the growth of the co peratives to the natural growth of >ig corporations, President Hurt of he Association prophesied that an ffective combination of human and msiness organization in successful o-operatives will be the great de lelopment of the future to make ife in the country worth living.
