The Annual Conference of the

f More About Seed Cotton.
Editor County Record:?
1 Allow me space, if you please, in
? your paper to say a few words in re
ply to Mr Jennings' idea about high
j license on seed cotton. I don't see
r how any farmer could sign any petition
to take his rights away on
? anything that he grows on his farm.
. God gives man his own and allows
i him to use it as he sees fit; how can
* thinking people sign their rights
' away, where given by their Maker,
and become slaves? I think those
petitions would have been better had'
' they been asking the people to set a
; price on their cotton and hold it un3
til the price be paid. Beware, farmi
ers, that the petition you are sign'
ing is not one to sign your rights,
away by the one that puts the price
on your stuff and his.
3 We would like to add that buying
^ seed cotton is not the tap-root of
f liquor selling,as Mr Jennings stated,
h Very respectfully,
n G S Huggins.
