AN UNJUSTIFIED CLAIM
Now that the cotton acreage re-
striction law has been invalidated by
the courts, State Commissioner of
Agriculture J. E. McDonald comes
out with a statement in which he
estimates “from a study of compiled
figures regarding production and
prices for the season just closing”
that the enactment of this measure
saved the cotton farmers of Texas
$37,500,000, and those of the entire
South $127,500,000. He apparently
arrives at the Texas figures by as-
suming that without the law Texas
farmers would have recived $7.50 a
bale less for their cotton and then
multiplying $7.50 by 5,000,000 bales.
Mr. McDonald made the demand
for a cotton acreage restriction law
the dominant issue of his campaign
in the last election, and it is only
natural that he should desire to put
as good a face on this matter as pos-
sible. He must now stand for reelect-
ion, and must give voters an account
of his stewardship. We do not doubt
that he makes this claim honestly
and in good faith. But we do not
think the claim has any justifica-
tion. We do not propose that this
be held against him, for undoubt-
edly he has the interests of the far-
mers of the state at heart and we
believe that he ought to be reelect-
ed. But not because he saved the
farmers of Texas and of the South
$7.50 a bale. For he did nothing
of the sort.
The chief influence that has sup-
ported the cotton market has been
the remarkable recovery which for-
eign exports of cotton have made
since the early
coupled with the assurance that the
cotton held by the farm board and
the cooperatives will be held off the
market and that the bankers of the
South would also finance the hold-
ing of a quantity of cotton. Before
these influences began to be felt,
the mai-ket was going down, in spite
of the acreage restriction laws. Gov-
ernor Long signed his no-cotton bill
on August 29 and middling cotton
price for middling was 5.50 cents.
It was then that the President and
the bankers got busy, and the price
of the export market has also im-
proved steadily since then.
The truth is that the trade never
did take the law seriously and it
did not effect the market mater-
ially. Certainly it cannot be shown
that the market would have averaged
$7.50 a bale less since September 22
if the law had not been passed. We
do not think Mr. McDonald should
be blamed for the law, but he should
not ask credit for it.—The Texas
Weekly.

fice too tired for words.”
"Gosh! Do you suppose my wife

“That’s all right Jones, my dog

“You are a farmer, ain’t you?”

“I used to be a farmer once,” said

“Yes. Say, stranger, did you ever

International Harvester Offers
Price Guaranty
on Wheat, Corn, and
Cotton .7 /
Many farmers who need new machines for the economical
production of their wheat, com, and cotton have been reluctant
to buy them because of uncertainty as to the prices they will
receive later in the year for these farm products.
In order to meet this situation the Harvester Company offers
farmers purchasing machines after this date, a definite price guar-
anty on varying quantities of their wheat, corn, and cotton. If
market price quotations for these products do not reach the guar-
anteed prices at the time payment becomes due on notes given
and maturing this year, farmers buying machines included in djis
special offer will receive a credit equal to the difference.
Many of our customers we know will welcome this announce-
ment. Come in and let us explain the details of the Harvester
Company’s unique guaranty. Let us show you the machines on
which it applies and tell you just how to take advantage of it in
equipping vour farm at once with the new cost-reducing machines
that you need.

Just to keep young, perhaps, Mrs.
!• N. Stagner gave a dinner party
Sunday to the fololwing: Mrs. Ella
Myers and daughter, Miss Lynn, Mr.
Scott Stagner of Dallas, Miss Alpha
Louise • Morton, Mrs. Tom Thorp
and Mi%. T. B. Duvall, whose pep
and seemingly great vitality sur-
prised the, young people almost to
the point Of astonishment.
It was a great feast as well as
a great day, and it is doubtful if
in those good old days they enter-
tained so royally. If so we might
consider our grandmothers an asset
to our bridge parties and dinners,
which, in these times, are prone to
'lag in interest as well as entertain-
ment.
Midnight was striking as th
householder crept down the stairs
His eyes fell on a burglar tamper
ii g with the safe. “Jove, a real bur-
glar!’ he smiled. “Wait a minute, wil
you ? ”
“While you call a cop eh?’ said the
burglar. “Not me!’
“No” said the householder, “wait
until I call my wife. She’s heard you
every night for 15 years, and it’ll be
a real pleasure to her to see you at
last.”
G. B. Latham, derrick man in the
oil field near Grand Saline, was kill-
ed last Thursday night when a
charge of dynamite exploded in the
hole.
H. H. Burns, former sheriff of Shel-
by county, was found guilty of mis-
appropriation of funds and sentenc-
ed to two years in prison. Burns*
daughter, Miss Sarah, fainted when
the verdict was rendered.
Len Gray, 10-year-old son of Mr.
and Mrs. L. L. Gray of Houston, was
drowned in the city reservoir last
Thursday. He fell into the water
while crossing the dam.
