The planters use-1 t<» sav m times there was no profit in raising cotton unless von o’ swap a pound of eotti ii lor a pound oi meat. In other words the e-ist making cotton was pound up with and depended upon the cost ol provisions. In those days a man's wealth was measured bv the acres he owned and the numbers of plows lie tan, and hi i in com • w s imasijhed by the number of bih of cotton la* made. Mmiev cut little figure then as it was 11 tie used, Tne planter tunic ( h-s cotton over to the faotorand gave drafts against it to pay his bills. Settlements were had once a year. II there remained a surplus lie ir. v stnl it in the purchase ot more I nd, giving a draft on his factor. here was very little money in circulatlor. then; tnerc was no use for it. Reckoning at the present time in terms of monev we find cotton at fit) cents a pound, corn at $2 per bushel, wheat at $:2.5l> tier bushel and all other communities proportional ely high, Labor, which is tire most impo'tant factor in making cotton, lias advanc d so that it is Laid to say whattiie cost will be to make anotiwr cotton crop even with cotton at 30 cents a pound. What n-v to make it if he can’t get the hands to gather itf Let him utilize this splendid spelt of weather in sowing wheat and oats, lie can raise wheat as we'I and as cheap as anybody on earth and fortify himself a probable scarcity. Two and a half is a monstrous price to piiy lor something that it cost fifty cents to ra'so. And if he raises more than he needs ho needs he can sell It is surplus for $2 50 per bushel, or better.
