The Farmers’ Index. 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.
