CottAi?iooer Graham Pul Office and the Fertilizer erence to Accepdog Cou of Accounts. ' " CommlMfOM* it AcriraltureOrtham yesterday g*w etrt eerreepoadence with two fertilises eompaaMo rotative to the settlement of ferMM*?r accounts by the farmers. The commissioner wrote to them aad asked them to eonstder the proposition of taking cotton at ten cants a pound In settlement of their claims. Two' Of the companies, the Virginia-Caroline Chemical Company and the P. 8. Royster Guano Company have written him that they eonld not seoept the ten cents s pound proposition, as It would entail too great a loss on them. On?mi?lore Graham's Requewct. Commissi oner Graham's letter. In part, was as follows: "While I have no deaire to butt In In the management of the affairs of your company, I would respectfully ask you to consider the matter of allowing settlement fpr fertilisers this fall, to he made In cotton at ten cents per pound?the ootton to be delivered at r-warehouse, nd the receipt to be transferred to yon. "The wheat crop In the State last year waPthe best In its history. Conditions would lead to a large crop to be seeded" this fall, If the farmers can buy fertilisers, but they will be slow to buy with the goods bought last fall and spring still unpaid for. If yon could make the eettlement as I suggest I believe the sales would be above the average, but If their debt Is not settled they probably will be xyry small. Lot this be conditioned oa the ootton being delivered by November first." VlrrfnlarGoroUn* Reply. The Virginia-Carolina letter, in part, la as follows: "I am glad you wrote me. because It gives me a chance to explain the situation to you in a way from whieh I am satisfied you will realise that it will be absolutely uterally lmnos sible to think of taking cotton at 10 cents a pound In payment for oui fertilisers. "Now, frankly the profits on fer til Iters sold by us last year. If 91 per cent of the total amount sole on credit Is collected, will net tu less than 80 cents per ton, thougl de did. In the whole of onr buslnea more than a million tons. Supposi we take cotton at 10 cents a pound which Is $50.00 a bale, and we ha< to market this cotton at 8 cents i pound, which Is $40.00 a bale, I would give us a loss, as you cai readily see, of $10.00 per bale. Noi the average price of fertilisers, si classes, delivered. Is $10.00; tw< tions of fertilisers would be qulva lent to $40.00,'which would be th amount we could realise on the sal of a bale of ootton at 8 cents. So t collect this two tons of fertlllsen amounting to $40.00, it would coi us $5.00 per tdh. If we did all < our business along this line, on tb amount of goods we sold last yea the company would make a loss < o,uuv,vuu.uv on uie uuHinem, i against a net profit on the sales ( only $800,000.00. It would show t a clear net loss of more than $4,006 000.00 on the yew'i trade. Not no one realises better than yourse that no oompany could stand thl and no one realises better thl yourself that no fertiliser com pat can afford to take $S.00 per ton 1ft for fertilisers than last spring. / Its Warehouse Plan. "Now, It Is our desire and pnrpoi to do everything we can to aid tl farmer and the merchant In th crisis. To this end we are askli onr debtors to pay us some mone We mast have some money to pi our labor and to run our plant We are saying to them that If th< will pay us a reasonable amount money (all they can), we will th< take cotton as collateral to the bi ance of their debt, and store It f them and allow them to dispose of at any reasonable time they m wish. To encourage this Idea, ' are now constructing places to stc cotton at a groat many points IIWORKIKO MEN MOVLPffiKM I Hoe Overall*, Shirt* and Ued ' tw. J.

We are doing all that U posalble for us to do *! In this emergency, and are giving all the aid we can. Under certain conditions we are advancing soma money to enable the merchants to help the farmer to gather his cotton. You can depend upon It that anything we can do that Is reasonable and fair in this matter, we will do, extending credit and helping is every possible way; but we cannot (as 1 hope I have made clear to you herein), accede to the suggestion contained In your letter, and I believe that after considering the matter from both sides, you will agree with me that It will be extremely unwise for us to do so. We want to be able to furnish fertilisers to our trsde again and we do not want to see any disaster happen to our customers nor to ourselves. , Royster Company Idea. The Royster Company, after stating that it could not accept the ten cent proposition, and referring to the obligations the company would have to meet, suggests the following: "In oua opinion it would be far , better for the South, and especially the cotton planters, to sell a seasonable part of their cotton at the market price, which we understand to be now around 8 1-2 to 8 3-4 cents. By doing this the bank* _ greatly relieved, by the payment of loans, foreign exchange will be greatly aided and all of this will tend to make a freer exchangw paid a liberal buying of cotton by millers 1 and exporters. If. on the other hand, all the cotton Is locked up, a? desired by so many, we shall have an entire cessation of trading, and the final result will be the bankrupting of the merchant, and certainly the fertiliser companies. There is not a fertiliser concern doing business " in the South who is not dependent ' on their collections to liquidate their 1 Indebtedness. 1 "We have told our customers that 1 we will be prepared to give them ex1 tensions on a reasonable amount of s their account after the first pay ments have been made, but that first 1 of all, we must take care of our own % obligations." t _______ > TABLE TALK.
