FLEECY STAPLE MUST PAY RAN
SOM INTO THE COPPERS OP
WAR.
Nation Ring With Crias of Strickon
Industry.
By Potor Radford
Lacra rar National Farmers' Union.
King Cotton baa tattered more from
the European war than any other ag
ricultural product on the American
continent. The shells of the belliger
ents hare bunted orer bli throne,
frightening hla subjects and shatter
Ing bla market!, and, panic-stricken,
the nation cries out "God save the
king!"
People from every walk of life have
contributed their mite toward rescue
work. Society has danced before the
king; milady has decreed that the
family wardrobe shall contain only
cotton goods; the press has plead
with the public to "buy. a bale":
bankers have been formulating hold
ing plans; congress and legislative
bodies hare deliberated over relief
measures; statesmen and writers
have grown eloquent expounding the
Inalienable rights or "His Majesty"
and presenting schemes for preserv
ing the financial Integrity of the
stricken staple, but the sword of Eu
rope baa proved mightier than the pea
of America In fixing value upon thli
product of the sunny south. Prices
have been bayoneted, values riddled
and markets decimated by the battling
hosts of the eastern hemisphere until
the American farmer has suffered a
war loss of 1400,000,000, and a bale
of cotton brave enough to enter a
European port must pay a ransom of
half Its value or go to prison until the
war la over.
Hope of the Futura Lies In Co-opera
tion.
The Farmers' Union, through the
eolumna of the press, wants to thank
the American people for the friend
ship, sympathy and assistance given
the cotton farmers In the hour of dis
tress and to direct attention to co
operative methods necessary to per
manently assist the marketing of all
farm products.
The present emergency presents as
grave a situation as ever confronted
the ' American farmer and from the
viewpoint of the producer, would seen
. to Justify extraordinary relief meas
ures, even to the point of bending the
constitution and straining business
rules In order to lift a portion of the
burden off the backs of the farmer,
for unless something is done to check
the invasion of the war forces upon
the cotton fields, the pathway of the
European pestilence on this continent
will be strewn with mortgaged homes
and famine and poverty will stalk over
the southland, filling the highways of
Industry with refugees and the bank
ruptcy court with prisoners.
All calamities teach us lessons and
the present crisis serves to Illuminate
the frailties of our marketing meth
ods and the weakness of our credit
system, and out of the financial an
gulsh and travail of the cotton farmer
will come a volume of discussion and
a mass of suggestions and finally a
solution of this, the biggest problem
In the economic life of America, if.
Indeed, we have not already laid the
foundation for at least temporary re
lief.
More Pharaohs Needed In Agriculture
- Farm products have no credit and
perhaps can never have on a perms
nent and satisfactory basis unless v. j
build warehouses, cold storage plants,
levators, etc.. for without storage and
credit facilities, the south la com
pelled to dump Its crop on the market
at harvest time. The Farmers' Unions
In the cotton producing states have
for the past ten years persistently ad
vocated the construction of storage
facilities. We have built during this
period 1,000 warehouses with a ca
pacity of approximately 4,000,000 bales
and looking backward the resulta
would seem encouraging, but looking
forward, we art able to house less
than one-third of the crop and ware
bosses without a credit system lose
0 per cent of their usefulness, rhe
problem Is a gigantlo one too great
for- the farmer to solve unaided. He
must have the assistance es the bank
ar, the merchant and the government
In production we have reached the
high water mark of perfection In the
world's history, but our marketing
methods are most primitive. In the
dawn of history we find agriculture
plowing with a forked stick but with
a system of warehouses under govern'
mental supervisión that made the
Egyptians the marvel of civilization
(or who has not admired the vision of
Joseph and applauded the wisdom ot
Pharaoh for storing the surplus untl
demanded by the consumer, but lu
this ago V have too many Josephs
who dream and not enough Pharaoh
VtM build.
Went to the Hospital
C E. Dlanchard, postmaster at
Blanchard, Calif, writes: I had kid
ney trouble so bad I had to go to
the hospital. Foley Kidney Pills
were recommended to me and they
thoroughly cured me. I cannot speak
too highly of them." Sufferers in
every state have had similar bene
fit fro mthis standard remedy for
kidney and bladder ailments. It
banishes backache, stiff joints, swol
len muscles and all the various
symptoms of weakened or diseased
kidneys. City Drug Store.
