The man whp wins is the man who gets ready and gets ready long ahead of time. This principle certainly applies in cottoni marketing this year. If we arc going to avoid the blundeirs of last year, it is tline and Iigh t line to put things in readiness. We must act at once. Of cou rse we are not going to have the panie whicl prevailed last year.

'robably tle greatest nee(d is for hlelr warehousing. Fortuniately th1e National I)epartment of Agriculture is interesting Ilself in this problem, and cottonl-growers everyi-3where shold get its I wo new bulletins, No. 216 on "('ot ton Wa reiolses", and No. 277, "Col ton Wartehouise Coust routio n".
