These figures can be verified from a bulletin issued by the agricultural and mechanical College of Texas. When the Cotton crop picked the tenant Farmer did not in it it w As covered j by razor tag a almost to the full value and often beyond the full value. Scores of efforts have been Trade i in the Cotton producing states to organize the Cotton farm cd is so that j they could Market their crop gradually. Without a single exception these efforts have failed and the reason is obvious. The banker and i the merchant wanted their Money As soon As the Cotton was picked. They did not care to speculate on whether the Cotton would bring a higher Price later. They wanted their part of it at the earliest moment possible. There Are scores of tabulations showing the Market value of Cotton each Day of the year. You cannot find a tabulation which fails to show that the Price of Cotton was Low when the crop was being sold by the Farmer and that it went up As soon a the Cotton was in Tho hands of the speculative buyers Aga i the reason is obvious. The Speculator has Loo much sense to Force hip Cotton on an unwilling Market. The Farmer could not avoid making that error. Itch Mioshi in High ibises. F there never was but one Hope for peaking this economic . That Ope was realized during the period of High pric Quot referred to. During the past three years thousands of banners have put enough Money in the Bank to pay Cash for their supplies to buy new equipment to buy land. They broke the Chain of usury which had bound them. The condition of these Farmers today is better than it has Ever been before. This problem of Cotton production is brought to a crisis now not because the conditions Are More into Rabic than Ever but because the producers have had Hope stirred in their breasts for the first Tim in thirty years. They have always known that they should hold their Cotton and Market it gradually. This year some of them Are so determined to Market their Cotton right that they Are even willing to bum Down to prevent others from glutting the Market.
