THE OTHER END OF MARKETING
PROFITS.
In cooperative marketing of cot-,
ton, the cost of cotton production;
will be determined by striking an
average of costs of production, most
likely, and as some pioduce at a1
low cost by using a better system
of farming, a better profit will ac
crue to such as a matter- of course.
The man who depends upon pool ;
land, bia-h nriced fertilizers and i
takes all the chances of wet and
dry weather on land not prepared
to give a good yield under either,
may expect less profits than just
as he gets less profits now. If the
average cost of production be say
20 cents per pound, the low cost
... .-!, ha in rents nnil ihi hiirh cost
i
24 cento. If the selling price he 2i8 hacked UP b over 5,000 feeling g
cento, then it is easily seen
that
ihnua ,,.-1,, nrndiiee 9A rent, rultnn
through careless or unwise farming,
will get little for their labor .while
the low cost farmer will get 9 cento
cent
ororit against the other's 1
profit.

Business. We are beginning to1
learn that the mistake
wo have al-
ways made as farmers was "cuss

C l&sing grass in our cotton does
no good. We must kill it.
Cussing 'bik business, likewise,
will do no good. Kill big business
such as interferes with our prosper
ity by imitating it all except its, in
justice and extortion. We have in
cotton the woild's greatest money
crop and we have a world's monop
oly on it, and shall hold that mo
nopoly (instead of turning it over to i ng nothing, knowing nothing, save
speculative interests) when co-ope-: wnat his fiddle taught him, his in

pound and still the consumer paid 1 jerky syllables. And when the

profits and banked them. A dollar the change from apathy to intense
