They can How can it )?e done? There are thro. ? immandmanti that they win have t?> obey t<> accomplish ibis result. The first one is tho diversification ?i| crops so ;is to make home S0lf? .supporting and self-sustaining, win it pay theni to do this.' It will. Why " iu cause they can raise their supplies on their OWn furms tot lees than half they have to pay when tiny buy these things. So ends the first com? mandment. The second command? ment Is organization and the third one is cooperation. Why do I say that the second one is organization? Hccauae it is impossible to cooperate without organization. Success can? not come to the masses of the farm? ers without cooperation in selling their products. Qood business meth? od must be put into the gelling end of farm products. Koa let us see what the farmers have lost this yrnr by not observing these three commandments which they should have obeyed. First we will take the cr)tton crop Of 1014, the great money crop. We have made In South Carolina practicnlly 1,500,000 hales of cotton In 1911. The cotton j that has been sold up to date has been sold below the cost of produc? tion. So there is nothing left Tor the producer. Could these conditions have been remedied? They could. How ? With a good warehouse sys? tem backed by the State or South I Carolina every "distre ssed" bale of cotton of the crop of 1914 could have been protected, and at least 1 cent a pound could have been added to the value of this cotton, amounting to 95 per b~1e. What would that have .added to the wealth of South Caro? lina? At least $7.500,000. If the present warehouse system had been Inaugurated in time, this loss, or nearly all of It, could have been saved to the farmers of this State. Would not this have relieved the money stringency of South Carolina? Is it not the duty of any State to protect the great money crop, when she would have nothing to lose and ev? erything to gain? So much for tl.< loss on cotton. Now, let us investigate the ?? ad proposition. I think that we have produced in this State about 650,000 tons of cotton seed and they haw gotten out of the hands of the farm? ers at a loss of at least $7.0u per ton, making a loss to the farmers of about $4,550.000. How can tho farmers uf ford this loss.' Could this have been averted? It could. How? By co? operation aad good business manage ment in the selling of this product. Now, as to the tobacco situation. I have been informed that we rais? ed 40,000,(0)0 pounds, in round num? bers, In 1914, und that It did not sell for cost Of production. If I have been correctly informed, I he North Caro? lina tobacco growers sold their crop of 1^14 for an average of 6 cents a pound more than the price realized by the South Carolina tobacco farmors, mr' iin? a loss to the tobacco grow? er, i I south Carolina of $2,000,000. Could this loss Have been averted? It could. If the North Carolina farm? ers beat the South Carolina farmers selling, it was just good business methods put Into their system of marketing. Tb?M K?ve* ;, total los; on cotton, cotton seed, and tobacco of eomethinil "\<-r $14.000.000. How ean th< farmers of tin* State Stand SUCh loss? es as the aho\e" Can it b# corrected? It certainly can. How? First. by ob? serving the three commandments laid down in the first part of this article, and in the fourth place a K<><>d State sferohouoe system backed up by the Mate "i South Carolina. We have nod a warehouse system recently in aimur.i'ed which has already been ot niiifh benefit to the fanners of the State We RUM! maintain and de? velop this system in order to add to tin* wealth ol the Mate by saving the loss on cotton a>>o\e mentioned. It is Just abOOt all that the ma? jority of the tanners cun do to pay the interest on Ihe money thai they owe. if the above conditions are not 1 ?1 taped, the future of our prosner? it\ is not Plight. Who tan change I hose conditions? First the formers themselves. Mow? D] observing] Ihe three eaeamandtnenta laid down in the h'-st pant of this aiih'le, Dlversl?
