?VB8CKlPTIO.\ 9S.OO Per Yr.
Dillon, S. Cs September IS, 1921.
This is not even a speculator's market?it
is a gambler's market.
A JLee county farmer says he has
found an absolutely reliable remedy
#or the boll weevil?no cotton in
1922.
If a seven million bale crop this
ryear brings 20 cents a pound a five
million bale crop next year will bring
50 cents a pound. Which crop will be
Ahe most profitable?
Thirty thousand bales?that will be
Dillon's crop in spite of the boll weevi
1 nrH u/at wnniKor > * '
? ?~ .. nvatuci ai ?u lenu a
pound means three million dollars.
JLdd to that three quarters ot a million
from the tobacco crop and you
have nearly four times aa much as the
nine banks of the county owe to outaide
banks. The county is a long ways
from the poor house.
If a fourteen million bale crop
would have brought 10 cents a pound
why shouldn't a seven million bale
-crop bring 20 cents? Ten cents a
pound would have been less than the
pie-war average, yet there are men
of intelligence who will argue that
15 cents a pound is a fair price for
.the 1921 crop.
One of the painful recollections of
erstwhile prosperous times is the
memory of the smooth-tongued stock
salesman who exchanged stocks of
^questionable value for good U. S.
currency and then departed for fields
anew and pastures green. Since the
<iecline in the nrice of cotton tho ?tn<>v
salesman has been conspicuous by his
absence, but.it cotton should go to 30
??r 40 -cents a pound he will make his
reappearance over-night. The stock
salesman, like the circus, does not attempt
to operate where there is not
much money In circulation.
Jobless men stripped to the waist
aftood on the auction block in Boston
bat -week, after the custom of the
eld slave auctions, and offered their
mar rices to the highest bidder. In
JTraace. which bore the brunt of the
war, leas than 1 per cent of the poptflSHoa
1? out of employment while
tn the United States, where Industries
ran to capacity and made millions
in profits, seven million men
-are idle. In the meantime the presi?deat
plays golf while congress occupies
itself making a high tariff law
which will add to the burdens of the
unemployed. There are times when a
-man's country makes it exceedingly
hard for ihlm to be patriotic.
? r ?
We listened closely to Mr. Carl
Williams' talk at the court house Saturday
afternoon and so far as we;
-are able to see there are no objection-j
aide features to the cooperative mar-1
keting plan a9 he explained it. On'
.the other hand the plan has many ex-j
eel lent features. It is admitted on
every hand that cotton will sell ?t a
higher price when offered in big lots,
and this method of marketing seems
to be the leading feature of the cooperative
marketing plan. When the
/producer surrenders his cotton to the
iWBocrauon ita control passes out of i
his frauds and the price at which it j
ahull be sold is optional with the,
association, but it has been shown|
that the assodatioa alwaya sells at a!
price slightly above the market and'
therefore the producer runs no risk.|
There is no questioning the fact that
it la the best way to sell cotton and
use believe that all cotton placed with
Oe association will be handled to the
feast advantage to the producer.
