i 11 In a new package At a price that fi The same unmatch Turkish. Virginia ? Guaranteed by fit/ wfa?? Cooperative Marketing. The following editorial is taken from the Charleston News and Courier of Thursday, April 20th: There has never been anything in, the history of agriculture in this country to compare with the way the cooperative marketing movement has I been sweeping the South during the past year. The campaign now in progress to sign the cotton growers ?f the South into a great cooperative association for the selling of their product marks the culmination of this movement. The reports published in the news columns from day to day show that a considerable number of counties in South Carolina have already secured the full number of bales assigned as their quota of the total necessary to make the association effective . in South Carolina. Governor Cooper has issued a proclamation setting aside April 25 as "Coopeiation Day" in this state and calling upon the business men to de-. At ^ J in QVOH' VCIC U3l (lay iu assiaMii^ m way possible in securing the signa-1 tures of cotton growers to the cooperative marketing contracts, in the confident belief tnat "such a system . of selling will be of great benefit;: to our producers and indirectly to all of our people." Cooperative marketing is net an experiment but a thoroughly tested practice v.-hich has been followed with ; the largest benefits both in Europe 1 and in America, notably in California , by the growers of vegetables and citrus fruits. In Kentucky r.nd the I adjacenc territory of the Burley tobacco country the growers of tobacco ' last year set out, under the advice! and direction of Mr. Sapiro, who has become the recognized authority on this question through his work in California, to reorganize and reform the marketing of Burley tobacco. Their efforts up to this time' have j succeeded far beyond anything they wore promised or led to expect and wberea j last year Burley tobacco sold at prices which spelled bankruptcy for the growers, this year such of | thp cro j as has been sold has brought j a very comfortable profit indeed. Not all the crop has yet been marketed, this being considered inadvisable, bit the growers have demonstrated their ability to dominate the situation, so long as they are governed by reason and common sense and fair principles, and so completely fcas the situation changed that it is now possible to borrow on Burley tobacco still held in warehouses as much i loney per pound as the same tobacco sold for last year. Judge Robert Bingham, of the Louisville Courier-Journal, who is himself a large grower of Burley tobacco, stated during his visit in Charleston last week that the results of cooperative marketing among the tobacco growers f Kentucky have already wrought the financial emancipation of thousands of these people. It has changed the whole outlook of a section. Judg^ Bingham, who has given a great c eal of time and study to this question, entertains no doubt whatever that cooperative marketing can do for the tobacco growers of Virginia and the Carolinas and for the cotton growers of the entire South what it has done already for the eitrus fruit and vegetable people in California and for the Burley tobacco people in Kentucky. The benefits of cooperative marketing as applied to the sale of swine was illustrated in Georgia a week or two ago in a sale of packer hogs conducted at Tennille in Washington county, under :he auspices of the Georgia Swine Grower's Association. This sale had been well advertised and had at-racted fully a dozen buyers representing packers and private interests and in twenty minutes the sale of more than 130,000 pounds of j fat hogs, 75,000 pounds of which ran j No. 1 prime, was concluded at 8.70 a hundred, f. o. b., Tennille, spot cash, the Southeastern market for the daybeing tnly 8 cents for tops. About 150 farmers had hogs in this lot and the Atlanta Constitution, which feab * eleven cigarettes f 7^ Three Friendly Gentlemen \\Vw* t^ish VIRGINIA l lyl'ltl BURLEY V L^?rFIFTEEN f/iflf /toy the pocket? Its the pocket-book? ed blend of and BURLEY TobaCCOS ? *lfl anaus*thp sale, sendine a staff corre spondent to report it, declares that '"if any one farmer had undertaken to market his three, or a half dozen, or even a wagonload of pigs independently, he would not have gotten more than six cents, if that; and would have carted his product to market, and been forced, perhaps, to accept barter in pay." The correspondent who reported the sale, the third of its kind to be held in Georgia, says that as a result of the new confidence which has been given to the swine grower", Georgia, which is at present the sixth state ir. the Union in pure bred hog growing now looks forward to such progress in hog growing within the next five years as to make it rank then "second to none in America in the fulfilment of that famous slogan of Mclntoch of Albany, that 'Hog, Hominy and Hay will make dollars out of dimes.'" Washington county, Georgia, it is estimated, has now something like 75,- | 000 head of pure bred hogs, and the number is growing. . Cooperative marketing as it is being followed in the Burley tobacco district and as practiced by the Georgia Cooperative Swine Growers Association represents the application of business principles to the sale of fann products. That is all there is to it. The growers pool their interests and employ competent and trustworthy business men to sell their products for them to the best' possible advantage. What makes the movement especially promising is that the farmers for the first time seem to have recognized that they cannot make a success of an undertaking unless they have the right men at the head of it and that they cannot get the right men unless these men are chosen on the basis of demonstrated f.tness and paid salaries such,as obtain in the business world. o The South Shipping Hogs. The Wilmington Star says that the Carolina Packing Company 01 that city is getting its supply of hogs chiefly from Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. Of course some good hogs are being received from North Carolina points. The capacity cf the p'ant, however, is such that it is difficult to keep it supplied with good corn-fed hogs. The Macon Telegraph, notes that Georgia, which used to get hogs from the West, is now shipping hogs to the West That paper based that comment on the fact that the farmers near Moultrie, Ga., have this season shipped 25,000 hogs to the west to be hardened on corn. Georgia farmers make a mistake in raising hogs without growing corn for them. They let their near-by packing house market at Moultrie close because they have tried to raise marketable hogs vithout corn. Those Georgia hogs will be corn-fed in the west and slaughtered in a western packing house. o Rub-My-Tism ldlls pain.
