NEGRO WRITES OF WEEVIL
AND GENERAL CONDITIONS
Mr. Editor: Please allow me space
in the columns of your paper to say
a few words in the interest of the
colored farmers of Cabaniss and Ber
ner section relative to farm indus
try throughout the district. From
favorable reports received from re
sponsible colored farmers, the crops
are better than they have been in
three years. They are looking extra
fine. Cotton crops are good, water
melons, peas and potatoes will make
all-round crops. Mr. 801 l Weevil has
made his escape from our midst. We
have made diligent search for him,
but our search was in vain. He can
not be found. During his sojourn
with us he made a clean-cut record
by his great skill in uprooting the
powers of the financial world. He
broke down the middle wall of pro
tection that upheld the farmers for
a period of 45 years or more, by
which cotton raising was the leading
factor of the farm industry through
out southern states. The South was
the center feature that made the na
tion favored and honored by all for
eign nations, and in the national ac
tivities there needed to be made
some changes for the relief of the
poor people from under the curse of
high speculation. The question was
asked, “Who will go for us, or who
shall we send?” The boll weevil from
the low world of sorrow said, “Here
am I, send me; I will go.” He first
met the Cotton King and plucked the
squares and blooms of the cotton
and placed a seal upon them for 3
years; he met the mortgage man and
the guano man, he cut out the credit
system, and with these two powers
of supplying the farmers gone, God
placed His seal there to. Man was
found in a wicked state. The mer
chant turned his back upon the poor
farmer and the landlord. At this
juncture, justice and mercy met and
they agreed for the people to scatter
to all quarters of the earth. So the
old problem has been solved and new
laws have been established and the
decree was signed and sealed by the
boll weevil that all men must work.
Better times will exist among the
farmers. There is not an enterprise
existing from the creation of the
world that precedes the farmer. I
will say to you that we all over here
are at peace among both races and
things are on a successful move. We
stand for more work and less talk.
We are getting nice showers upon
our crops. Tell your friends that the
boll weevil has surely left—gone to |
parts unknown—and we are glad to:
get shed of him. R. V. WATSON.
