TURNING OVER A NEW LEAF.
. Doubtless there a-e many farmers (as
there are every year) who have conclud
ed that they will turn over a new leaf—
that they will produce more grain, more
meat, more milk and butter, more ma
nure,—next year. We beg leave to sug
gest that note is the time to begin (o re
pent and do better. The months of
August and Septemper and October con
stitute the seed time of the South, for
the most important food crops that can
be grown for man and heist. Plans
should at once be prepared for the f ill
sowing of grasses,and arrangements com
pleted for a new order of things.
Judge Hooks, of Augusta, in an elabo
rate article in the Chronicle of that city,
attempts to show that the want of pros
perity among farmers is due to political
causes—the reduction of the currency
and resumption. He may be right, but
we hardly think he is. An increa-e of
the quantity of the circulating medium,
would doubtfess result in higher prices
for cotton ; but it would also bring high
er prices for everything that a farmer
must buy, as well as those he ought not
to buy, as well as higher taxes and high
er lab®r, and in general, a speculative
system. Everything else is booming—
manufactures of every kind, railroads,
city and town improvements—under the
present financial system; money is
cheaper than it has been in twenty wars,
and still farmers are gloomy and despon
d nt, and their business is at a discount.
We are convinced that the fault lies
mainly at the door of the farmer, aggra
vated by the violent change of the labor
system wrought by the war. The truth
is we were never skillful farmers, in the
true sense of the word. Under our old
system we could so easily make a living
and even accumulate wealth that there
was no seeming necessity for carefully
studying the science of farming. We
really had no effective co.nnetition in
producing our chief staple. We ha 1 only
to plant, cultivate and gather our cotton,
and sell it at fairly remunerative prices,
while our slaves were constantly increas
ing in number and value. All this is
now changed and we have been shorn of
our special advantages by the destruc
tion of our system oflabor.and if we suc
ceed in farming we must apply the same
principles of indtis’ry,economy, skill,and
patient, careful attention to every d Hail,
that are found to be necessary to success
in any long established trade or profes
sion. There is no royal road to success
in any business.
But we are getting away from our
direct line of thought. Nearly every
farmer who has failed to achieve success
will admit that the fault has been chiefly
his own; and it is the universal cry that
“ we can never be prosperous or happy
so long as we rely on purchasing sup
plies of corn, fodder, flour, bacon, lard,
etc., and raising cotton to pay for them.’’
So everybody says, and every one hopes
that every other farmer will see the folly
of this business of “all cotton, etc.,” and
adopt a different policy. Then, reader,
why dont you adopt a better plan ? ex
ample is better than precept. So long
as those who preach wisdom, persist in
practicing folly, how do they expect to
convert any body. This change of poli
cy must be the result of individual effort.
Every farmer must act for himself and
pursue such a system of farming as bis
best judgment approves, regardless of
what others may do. He need not relax
his efforts at securing co-operation and
inducing others tp follow the same plan,
but he should not wait for anvbody.
Little can be done just at this time in
the way of actual work, but as we have
already said, our plans should be formed.
Rosolve at once to devote a large area
to fall oats and to sow early If in the
northern part of the gulf states, it is ad
visable to sow more or less wheat. The
quantity should be determined at once
and the seed procured.
In the same section or even farther
South, clover may be included in the
crops to be sown if not already a feature
of the farm. Farther South experiments
may be made with orchard grass, bur clo
ver andred-top, but no greater area
should be tried than sufficient to test their
adaption. We know that fall sown oats
and rye, will make a good winte r pasture.
Begin at once to provide comfortable
winter quarters for all live stock of every
description so that they can be most eco
nomically fed or fattened and their ma
nure saved.
Enquire at once for the best thorough
bred cattle, sheep; and hogs. L>t several
join together and purchase a male animal
of each kind. Kill and sell off all iufe
rior stock as fast as they get in condition.
Make arrangements for saving manure
of all kinds and for composting the same.
If short of money to pay debts and pur
chase needed seeds, implements and
stock, sell part of your land or something
else tkat you can do without, and reduce
your area.
INTEREST LA W AND RELIEF TO
FARMERS.
At every session of the Georgia Legis
lature there is more or less tinkering
with the laws on the subject of interest.
There are two well defined notions on
the subject—one that all laws restricting
the rate of interest should be repealed,
and the other that the rate should be
limited to a specified maximum.
Toe advocates of the latter policy seem
to draw their inspiration chiefly from
the Mosaic law which forbade usury, and
they interpret the term to mean unlaw
ful interest, or a rate greater than that
fixed by law. In reply to this it may be
said that the best commentators on the
history of the Jewish nation all agree
that the term usury as used in the
Mosaic Code, meant the charging any
interest at all for the use of money
loaned to a brother Israelite. Whatever
might have been the original meaning of
the ‘erm, it is difficult to conceive a rea
son why this particular Jewish law
should be held to be of binding force in
the present day, while so many of the
Levitical lawa and customs have no
claim upon us.
So far, then, as Legislative action is
concerned, the question is resolved into
public policy. It is contended that the
borrowers should be protected from the
exactions of the lenders as a matter of
public policy, and those who advocate
this view appear to be confilent that if
the rate of interest be restricted to eight
or ten per cent., that the eff.-ct would be
immediately and distinctly felt in the
increased prosperity of the country. We
think this view is utterly erroneous. It
Croceeds upon the assumption lhat the
orrowing of money is the exercise of a
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, AUGUST 25, 1881.
sort of prescriptive right which ought
not to be embarrassed by the imposition
of inconvenient rates by the lender; and
the act of lending at interest seems to be
viewed as a necessary evil to be licensed
by restrictive laws, for the benefit of the
borrower. There could be no borrowing
without lenders, and there would be few
if any lenders ii money received no hire.
In its last analysis interest is the sum
paid by the debtor in consideration of
postponing, ’o some future day, the pay
ment of a debt due now. According to
this common sense definition, the
amount added to the cash price of mer
chandise in consideration of deferred
payment, is nothing else than interest.
It is, therefore, strange that the law
should pounce upon the man who lends
the actual cash and prescribe the rate, be
yond winch he shall not charge, while
the merchant is not restrained at all.
When the latter sells to one farmer a
bu-hel of corn at one dollar, cash, and
to another farmer a bushel out of the
same sack fur one dollar and a quarter
ro be paid in six months, the merchant
is actually charging the last man twenty
five cents for deferring tne payment of
one dollar for the period of six months.
So far as the principle is concerned
the farmer might as well have paid the
one dollar cash down, and then b crow
ed it from the merchant for six months
at 25 per cent, intere.-t.
The polic.,, therefor--, o f restricting the
banker or money lender and leaving the
merchant to charge what he pleases or
whatever may be agreed übon, is “ mak
ing fish of one and fowl of the < ther.”
The truth is, we take it, that such 1 g
islaiion will always fall short of the ob
ject if that object be to create plenty of
money at low rates and thereby relieve
the embarrassments of the farmers. The
Legislature might as well enact that
“ from and after the passage of this act
the farmers shall have plenty of money
at low rates of interest, and become
prosperous and nappy,” as to expect to
relieve their embarrassment by stringant
interest laws.
The difficulties under which farmers
labor are not due to high interest or scar
city of money, nor yet to high prices de
manded for supplies. These circumstan
ces aggravate but they are not at the
root of the evil. The trouble is with the
system of planting pursued by farmers,
as we-have attempted several times to
illustrate.
Many farmers in Georgia would fail
of success even if money were furnished
them free of interest, if they were re
quired to re’urn it at the end of the year.
I'he efforts of the farmer are not profita
ble because not properly and wisely di
rected. There must be reformation on
the farm and the household. We will
recur to this subject in future numbers
and endeavor to show wherein Southern
farmers fail in their eff irts to retrieve
their foitunes. Meantime we would
respectfully suggest, that instead of en
couraging farmers to borrow money by
increasing the facilities therefor anil re
ducing the rates, the Legislature would
act wisely in encouraging cash transac
tions, and discouraging credit sales —es-
pecially of plantation supplies.
PROHIBITION OF FERTILIZERS.
There has been introduced in the Sen
ate of Georgia a bill to punish as a mis
dem eaner the importation of commercial
fertilizers into Georgia or their manufac
ture in the State. When the bill was
first read it was thought to be a huge
j >ke on the part of its author, Senator
McWhorter, a sort of burlesque of the
prohibitory liquor law bill, introduced
about the same time. But it seems now
since the Constitution has interviewed the
Honorable Senator that the bill was not
so much of a joke after all. The Senator
says “ he means business on his fertilizer
bill,” and the “interview” gives some
figures an J arguments which he expects
tc sustain the proposed legislation; but
the figures are so inaccurate and the ar
guments so weak and inapplicable that
we are forced to believe that the Honora
ble Senator had not given the subject
five mtnutes thought before drafting his
b 11.
However much impressed with the
impolicy and improfitableness of the use
of commercial featilizers a legislator
might be, it is hard to conceive that any
man, in his senses, would deliberately
propose such a penal prohibition. We
would be refl cting on the common sense
of our readers to make au argument to
show the uncons'atutionality and fool
ishness of the bill as pr .posed. Mr. Mc-
Wherter might as reasonably introduce
a bill to prohibit the manufacture and
sale of canly in this State, or the impor
tation or use of care ts, because some chil
dren have been made sick by the former
and some women injured by the latter.
A Itw prohibiting the introduction of
manufactured tobacco in any of its froms,
would be far more sensible than the one
now under consderation, and we respect
fully suggest to Mr. McWherter that he
amend his bill by substituting the words
“manufactured tobacco and segars" in
lieu of the words “commercial fertibzeis.”
If such an amendment should be rejected,
then the words ’‘candy and chewinggum”
might be tried, and so on, like the man
who boasted that he could make an ax,
then a wedge, and finally enled in mak
ing a tremendous sinz.
