- 87J20 for the year ending June
,-1048. The $600,516.20 represen
ts Mr. Fisher in his statements
: ; profits last year and kept for
pansioS' purposes is the reserve

over a period of years. During the
24 years of the N. C. Cocton Grow-
vie . wvvluuic noovvMiuvu f
tory the directors have ordered
the reserves refunded on two oc
casions. In 1927 the members were
refunded more than -$600,000 00
and in 193S more than $175,000.00.
-;- Mann continued: -
jr -
"The certified public aualt of the
Farmers Cooperative Exchange
showed that there wac a net margin
of $352, 44143, that of the amount
$301833.20 was sent-': to the
patrons r.s p'.tron?jc. , dividends,
that $45 331.33 was paid fesck In
cash dividenas on the capital stock
and only $5,029.01 added to un
distributed earnings. , t. '-.
-"The North ..; Carolina Cotton
. Growers Cooperative ; Marketing
Association does nothing but mark
I et cotton for its members, and out
of a volume of $5,472,982.00 it has
a net savings of . only $45,851.20,
'and every dollar of this reserve
has been allocated to the members.
. on a per bale basis and will be
' paid to. the members when the ten-
farnw-d' rectors elected by . the
members tn min?e their business
for them vote to do so as they did
in 1927 and 1935. i
"It has also open rciesented bv
others that the CVa Pnonrative
Marketing - Association goes out
and buvs cotton on the open mar
ket -This, again, is not true.
'Svry bait ttf t n laaiuiel by
the Association is placed, first In
a bonded warehouse, where samples
are drawn by licensed operators
and. sent , to a' modern classing
room where they are graded and
stapled by ' government-licensed
classers and the farmer is then ad
vised the grade and Staple of his
cotton,' and the day he is ready to
sell, the Association quotes the
price it can obtain, for the farmer
by selling direct to the mills and
then the farmer has a ritfit to-ask
for a price on the loct market and
if the price on the local market is
as much or more than the Assoc
iation Offers, he can take his iden
tical cotton from the warehouse
and sell it to the local buyer and
does not owe the Association a
penny. , ' ,
"Today, North Carolina cotton
farmers have placed "With the As
sociation cotton with a value of
more than two million dollars on
which they have - not drawn one
penny advance. This, along with
other cotton, on which advances
have been made is subject to their
order to sell after obtaining a pr'?.
from the Association and trying to
equal or better that price on the
local market." v "
two ironing huu, i .v l owe ,
! for dark and colored, clothing and
the - other . one for white , things.,
That way you'll be taking no chan
ces of colored stains on freshly
washed white things.. . j
Use a whisk broom, kept for the
purpose, and hot water to sprinkle '
clothes. They will be more evenly?
dampened than when sprinkled by
hand.
: When you wash your rag! rugs,
use a light starch. Wash them in
rich, warm suds. After a thorough
rinsing, dip the rugs into a light
starch solution which will give the
rugs more bedy and ..help keep
them flat on the floor.
A soak in time saves dish-washing
time. Many dishes will wash
more, quickly if filled with water
Immediately after using. The ex
ception is any iron vessel which
might rust if soaked too long.
A time-saver a small alumin
um pan filled with hot soda water,
near the dishpan, put into it any
silver, tarnished with egg or other j
food. . -
