PACE FOUR THE CORSICANA DAILY SUN, CORSICANA, TEXAS, TUESDAY, MAY 23, 1916. WELL PLEASED WITH RESULTS Two Chatfield Citizens Shipped Hogs With Marketing The Marketing Association continues to grow in favor. Especially is this true of those who give it a fair test. Today J. M.

Farrer and O. F. Flovin, both of Chatfield, were in Corsicana. In the last shipment of hogs made by the Marketing Association both of these gentlemen had hogs. They have received their returns in the way of substantial checks.

When asked if they were pleased both responded with emphasis that they were. Then Mr. Farrer proceeded ip talk while Mr. Flovin gave smiling assent to his utterances. This, said Mr.

Farrer, was our first shipment and I should say we did get good prices and are well pleased. 1 hope every farmer will do as we have the Marketing Association a trial. Every farmer in the county who has anything to ship should ship it through the Marketing Association. And another thing: Every married man in the county should bring his wife here on the 5th of June and hear the talk on the matter'of organizing egg clubs and how to market eggs. That is an important matter and one in which every farmer should take an active in terest.

Situation. We have had another Bull market during the past week, values selling at new high levels for the season. Unfavorable weather conditions are given as the principal cause of this advance, low temperatures having prevailed over the entire belt the latter part of the week accompanied by cold rains, while the drought stricken sections in the East received very little rain and some sections where badly needed, there was none. While these conditions no doubt caused some orRside buying on the idea of a further delay to an already late start, the main strength of this market has been and is the continual good spot demand. Since the foreign political situation has cleared up.

buyers have come into the market and all Southern spot markets have advanced In consequence. The English market continues to considerable strength and there seems to be a good deqwmd for what limbed stock they have on hand. The American mills are all actively engaged and there Js a steady demand from twfrtrce and as the goies on and the foreign stock grows smaller, this demand should continue throughout the season. Disappointing cables and some rains Jn the Atlantics caused some little decline today from the high figures of yesterday, hut the market is steady at the decline. From a speculative standpoint, after such an advance (here ought to be Borne reaction from these levels, but would only sell it for a turn as we favor buying on good breaks.

F. C. YVeinert, State Marketing Association manager, was made chairman of that committee. At a meeting of the committee in Dallas last week Mr. Weinert submitted the following which was adopted and which contains much that is of interest to the farmers of the State: Austin, Texas, May Sir: In submitting to you the enclosed report of the committee appointed In compliance with a resolution adopted at the meeting held at Austin on March 9th, I wish to say, in addition to the information contained in said report, that the securing of cheaper money for the purpose of financing the cotton stored in bonded warehouses, now depends almost on the integrity of the receipt issued by the bonded warehouse association.

The strict compliance with the law is therefore, a great deal will depend on the manner in which khe affairs of the Warenouse and Marketing Associations are conducted. Many of our best financiers have stated that our receipts on cotton, on account of the ready liquidation and data furnished are the last word in finance, and are entitled to the lowest rate of interest. This concession heretofore has been granted to the speculator only, but never to the producer. Lack of organization on the part of the producing class and the want of proper laws were the causes. The Permanent YY'arehouse and Marketing Law stabellzes the finished product and adds additional security by providing for a commercial or standard bale.

The State Association of Texas, at their convention held in Houston, endorsed by resolution the sentiment and principle adopted by your committee. In justice to many honorable and progressive men engaged in the banking business, it should be said that their action refutes the entiment expressed at a former meeting, that made very little dif ferene what price the farmer received for his Men holding such selfish views are disappearing Education of the banker, as well as the farmer, has had its effect. However, the principle that the banker entitled to the best security should never be lost sight of. Special mention should be made of Mr. Joe Hirsch, president of the Texas Association, who stated in his opening address to the bank ers that he in the financing of the producer, and not the cet ton Mr.

J. S. Cullinan, of Houston, pres Ident of the Texas Economics League; Mr. Nathan Adams, vice-president of the American Exchange National Bank, of Dallas; Mr. J.

A. Kemp president of the City National of YYTehita Falls, and other prominent men in the financial world endorsed these statements. An able address was delivered to the bankers on this occasion by Mr James Callan, president, of the Texas Cattlemen's Association, on the question of financing the cattlemen, and it was notable how he stressed the point that the Association was exerting every effort to stabelize and secure loans to individual cattlemen, so as to prevent loss to the lenders, and how they had succeeded and how the only risk left, if any, was the fluctuation in price of cattle, and cU- ipatic conditions. Mr. Callan challenged the bankers to cite a single instance where a lender had lost a single dollar on any loan to cattlemen in their section of the State He further stated that the bankers of the East were anxious to finance the Texas cattlemen and if the l'exas bankers were not willing to do so.

it would be thair loss and not th -3 loss of the cattlemen. The framers of our Marketing law were actuated by the same spirit beginning with encouraging the growing of the best products and the preparation and marketing of same in standard or commercial Trackage. The risk of financing cotton thus prepared stored and insured against loss as the law provides is reduced to the minimum, if not entirely therefore, our contention is that the receipts on cotton stored in bonded warehouses should be financed at the very lowest rate, which is meeting with success. Many of the bankers of Texas have expressed a desire to meet these demands, and communications received by the Marketing Department from abroad justify the claim that those receipts will be handled on a basis of the very best commercial paper, not only in Texas, but in the money centers of our country. There is a vast difference in something real and something held in expectancy.
