Price of Cotton.
If a hundred thousand dollar
ton mill afford down in
to get cheap cotton, a one
horse cotton farmer can afford, lo
shut down in order lo prevent sell-
his at n sacrifice.
The fight for low rot ton by l lie
spinners is . They will the
fight if cotton farmers rush their
cotton to market. If the farmers
hold most of their cotton and keep
down receipts, they will win their
fight for h cot Ion. The price of
cotton is largely based on
with small receipts
the price will go up. If they let
the cotton buying world see
big receipts, the price will go
down.
If farmer sells his cotton for
less than it is worth, his loss is
complete and he is a
loser. If the cotton mill
has to pay what cotton is worth, he
may be troubled for a few weeks,
but he and his associates can put
up the price of the product the
mill and suffer no permanent
loss.
It is to the interest of the south
to have this small crop of cotton
its lull value to the men
whose toil has made it. Comfort
at home and the education of the
children arc absolutely
upon this. It is to the interest of
the south for the mills to do well,
to pay good prices for cotton and
get good prices for I heir product.
