Only a Few More i)nys T,eft In Wlilcli To .loin ? Campaign CI ? .es Saturday, Octobcr 15. After the most successful campaign ever undertaken among the farmers forthelr organization the sign-up cam paign of the Cotton and Tobacco Qrow srs Associations of North Carolina comes to a close at sunset on Satur day, October 15th. These two associations nave done what has been said to fee impossible, that is they have organised over fifty per cent of the cotton, and tobacco far mers into a business-like selling or ganization which will make them the most powerful selling agdhcies of the two products In the world. " It ? tag been the dream of the Agricultural leaders In the South for .years of or ganizing the cotton apd toDaoco farm ers so that they might hare control of the sale of their crops s$d much has 1 een the speculation of th? power fhey might wield and of the prosperity that v ould come to the South as the result cf aucb organisation. , The success of these arfcanlsatlons has been unpara Helled and tbev stand today the strongest co-operative enter prises in the world and alt the old to bacco companlee and cotton exchan ges combined do not equal them in the control of the two crops. A large portion of the two crops grown in Franklin county have already been signed up In the associations and It Is hoped that by the time the cam paign ends on the ISth that fully sev enty-five per cent of the farmers will have signed up In them . This means for Franklin county and for Che South years of prosperity and an end to the crop mortgage system which has made slaves of tbe southern tarnfkrs for the V past fifty years. . ?
