Wrigly To Buy Big Amount
Of Cotton; Good Investment
Chewing Gum Magnate Says Ob
ject is To Buy r-p lmtow ooo
Pounds.
Chicago.—W Ulalm Wrigley,. w
plans to purchase up to 100,000,00C
pounds of cotton on the American j
market In the next eight months ut
prices not to exceed 12 cents a'
pound.
"All remittances from jabber.-., j
Mr. Wrigley, the chewing gum man-,
ufacturer announced, will be creci
ited to the Wrigley colton. invost
nient fund and cotton will b pur
chased for delivery i;i Decembc.
1031.
"Our object is to purchase up t o.
100.000 000 pounds of cotton tin
leaving our cash in the south."
The project is similar to .Mr.
Wrigiey’s offer last year to ail
grain, producers by accepting wheat
in pay iheht of obllgatioits to hi
Canadian Corporation. From April
1 to December 1, provided cotvon
does not rise above 12 cents a pound,
his company will accept cotton m
payment for its products shipped io
the south.
‘‘l~We do not take cash out ai
the south, but on the contrary wo
leave cur money in the south, m
the south's own coin.
“2—We believe cotton at 12 cent.
per ixnmd Is a good investment and
that we will make money by lock
ing up some of the company's ie
sources in cotton and holding it in-i
definitely if necessary’.
"3—We believe our plan will re
lieve. to the extent of our ability, a
carrying strain on planters', south
ern business and banks, ut this crit
ical time in the south's affairs,
"If cototn goes up. as wo,Teel .is.
probable, we will profit. But if .it1
goes down, we become partner..
with the south, and as such, take
otir loss with them. Our real object!
is to let the South pay us in kind—|
pay in cotton for what the south
owes us And, unless cotton goes up, I
we propose to invest further of the I
company’s resources in uotton until;
we actually own one lmndred rail-j
lion pounds."
Happier Days For
Poultrymen Ahead
Progressive Farmer.'
The piist. two months have seen
farm prices at unprecedented Iowa.
But v.e cannot escape the conclus
ion that UitTbolloni has been reach*
rd and that improvement will, be
. ceil during the last six months oi
1931, if not sooner.
Take the poultry business., for < \ -
ample. February saw the price ot
egg. the lowest for any month sine:
official records have been kept. But
why? It is not hard to explain. The
poultry business has been relati ve
il profitable for a long number >f
vears Consequently it has eviwr
leneed an exceedingly rapid develop
ment. Eggs in storage in 1930 were
practically double those in storage
the previous year, averaging around
4.000,000 eases compared with 2
000.000 cases. These were moved In -
to the channels of trade rapidly the
last half of 1930 and early 1931.
largely at heavy losses.
The nature has played an import
ant role. An unusually mild winter
visited the entire country. Hens laid
in January and February as they
usually do in April and May. The
market was flooded, glutted with
fresh eggs. Because of the losses ex
perienced in 1930. there is little in
terest in storing the surplus.
What will be the results of the
disastrously low egg price? General
discouragement. A lot of farmer.,
will quit tire poultry business. Oth
ers will decrease the she of their
flocks. More constant and severe
culling among those that hold cn
will be practiced. Low egg prices
have stimulated consumption Sur
pluses are being wiped out. Because
of heavy winter production the us
ual “flush” spring production will
not be up to normal. Fewer eggs will
be put in storage in 1931. Orders for
baby chicks are about half what
they were last' year—further Indi
cating reduced egg production next
fall and winter.
Egg prices'.should begin to streng
then in the late spring and early
