Vanguard of completely mechanised cotton fai ming, the four giant machines pictured above are
• ypical of the more than 100 mechanical pickers which will aid in harvesting the crop in various sections
of the Cotton Belt this fall. The Natioral Cotton Council reports that one of the pickers can harvest more
cotton in a few minutes than a hand picker would remove from the field in an entire day. Expanded us*
of machine pickers will be a big factor in lowering the coil of cottor production.

Faiii 'TS Know What a Profit Is For
As hi* iiun Ih s, the fanner ha> 1'ui^ iin'c
found out that a profit is not just an extra
sum. above the hare rt st of doing business,
which can lie used as you please. It is the
main source of funds necessary to pay for a
new silo, buy better machinery, and improve
the house ami the barn.
In spite of the great rise in income, farm
profits are no more than necessary to keep the
farm plant producing efficiently. It s the same
with the iron and steel industry which makes
the materials for the farmer's tools.
In 1945 steel companies had left, after meet-
ing all ex{K'nses but before paying dividends,
only a little more than one-tenth of one cent
on eacli )H>und of steel sold. Hie j rolit on each
dollar invested was less than tiv «• cents. ^ ear
by year since 1911, when the war started,
earnings have lieen declining.
Although last year's output of steel was 1(>
per rent greater than in 1910. the last prewar
vear. /wi v rolls uvrv nctirlv double but diridcntls
i(err louvr.
There are many misunderstandings and
misrepresentations about profits. Some people
forget that reasonable profits are a necessary
incentive of the American system, which re-
sults in abundant low-cost farm products and
abundant low-cost steel products.
It is up to those who know what profits are
for. and what they can do, to see that they
are not destroyed—and with them our high
standard of living.
