HAI Several years ago an enterprising i esta merchant-farmer in a small Eastern bet* Carolina town slipped away to Liver- farn pool and had a quiet conference with h -* * - 1-1--.. -a - 1.? , man- : ..? me yreejucui ui a iai, ? , la c u/acturing eetabliahment. When the f 8pe? merchant-farmer returned home he | achl exhibited to hla fellow merchants and > luct farmers a contract, whereby he was 0f 1 to purchase cotton on his local mar- artii ket, ship It to the nearest compress can and then bill It direct to the European nc < manufacturer. It was the first time acc< In the history of the cotton Industry it ii that a European manufacturer and a Sou local ootton buyer had been brought just together. It was the first attempt that the! had erer been.made to eliminate the pub middle-men in the handling of the jj world's greatest crop. In that contract and the European manufacturers and the o{ { American producer had been brought n6n closer together than erer before in jjig the history of the cotton Industry, Able lawyers who passed upon the day provisions of the contract said that it bjg granted an equal measure of protec- a Q tion to both buyer and seller. Flnan- ( clers who looked It over said it was ja t the beginning of a new and better gra( era In the handling of the cotton crop, q0]j In that it brought the Southern cotton ^ field to the threshhold of toe European cal spinning room. Bat the Fatee so will- enc ed It that before the plan could be abu put Into practical operation death ^ tilled the heart and hand ot this far- tra( seeing merchant and farmer, and that ^ eontract which no doubt would have tQ t meant so much to Southern cotton 8rp, planter* became an inactive asset of tha1 a litigated estate. he < But the germ of the idea did not aDd die with this enterprising merchant- Mil! farmer; it found lodgment in the fer- der tile brain of a young cotton manufac- y turer of the Pee Dee section. "If the jg a European manufacturer sees an ad- Beej vantage in getting closer to the pro- he ducer why not get closer to him my- low self?" reasoned this young manufac- ^ turer. "Why not buy my cotton direct wjt] Instead of through the broker, and the divide the commission with the farm- tun er?" Therr ipon he went upon the local cotton market in competition adv with buyers for brokers and export- t ers, and the price of cotton advanced f nearly fifty points the first day on j the strength of his buying. He contlnued the fight throughout the seaion, bought every bale of cotton his y mills needed first hand from the farm- b?r< er and not only saved money for him- ; B self, but added thousands of dollars ren( to the wealth of the farmers of his ? native county. That man was W. M. [ Hanier, for years president of the Dll- *nes Ion, Hamer and Maple Cotton Mills, B and at present a candidate for lieu- j and tenant-governor of South Carolina, nes: Other mills over the state caught his B idea and that was the beginning of his the movement that resulted in the B elimination of the middleman and the ?hli Remarkable Cure of Dysentery.
