COTTON PROFITS AND DIVER¬
SIFIED CROPS.
Cotton Ui is year in Georgia, South
Carolina and Florida is good—that is
it is a good article—hut the price is
low. Farmers are asking
whether it will be higher and they are
afraid to iioid on to it because tl.ey are
afraid that if it does advance tiie in¬
creased price will not lie sufficient to
meet Uie expense of handling it. And
then tliere is the danger that the prices
will fall instead oi rising.
At present prices farmers can make
no money out of cotton’ unless they
pursue a wholly.different plan of farm¬
ing. -The present crop has cost more
than the average price to make it—
that is the seasons have been such as
to require more work. Mauy will
doubtless find themselves no richer at
the end of t lie year than they were at
the beginning,-and will have no reward
for the long year of hard labor, anoth¬
er year of hard living and lid pleasures.
Many are doubtless asking themselves
what profit is tliere in growing cotton.
This'question is quite ably answered
by a Louisana farmer. He says that
the profit upon our labor is growing
less every year; hardtimes are weaviug
its chains more securely abo it us and
Wc mu l be np and doing if we would
break them ere it he too late. Can we
break them? Undoubtedly we can,
sv.fely and surely ; but to do this must
change our system of farming. We
must become self-supporting; at least
our farms must be made to support us.
Lt is strange anomaly .fanners purchas¬
ing food at the stores—even butter.
are susposed to feed the world, and
it “Is stnMige how any part of our agri¬
cultural people should be consumers
and not producers of food. We can
produce in great abundance our meat
and bread, and can live upon the fat of
the land. Cotton is a paying crop at
the present price when it is maile
only a Aiirpi.'is. Pro«Lim e
vTcan Wi on V'Q farm, and what stn
phis land we may Imvc put it inL> cot
ton lor a, money crop. We are gprtain
to sheeted then ; we are certain of one
thing at all events—us good living us
uny people in the country'. Cotton as
now in a u aged costs mart to produce
than it will sell for, and it is folly n>
continue a system so ruimous. Ii
makes us the most dependent people on
eaitli, and for debt-well, we will nov¬
el get clear so long as we adhere to it.
I do know that eveiy farmer In the
South can produce almost everything
that we need to live upon, and it does
seem folly to buy from the grocery
such things when we can produce or
raise on our farms. Suppose the cot¬
ton crop this year is larger than for
any previous year in our history, what
will the farmer do? He cannot afford
to seil his product et a loss, He has
produced nothing except cotton and
depen > upon lair prices for it in order
to live next year. Disappointed in
this, left w ithout means of subsistence,
with credit impaired, I c nnot think
what will he the result. Many of us
will v be found in this situation.
We must resolve , at once to . abandon .
this suicidal system and hereafter di
versify our crops. w ith cribs filled
with grain, our pastures with cattle,
our yards with poultry, we have a lull
(.uarautee guard te.j of plenty l for the future re
,
gardltss of merchants, and it we nave
no ready cash we can manage to get
! along very well without it until anoth
i er cotton crop is harvested. It is so
easy to do this it does seem strange
that people will not do il. We exist

are living without hope.
This won’t do; it must be stopped.
and while no club or organizatioa of
any kind can be made effective, perhaps
a little individual resolution may ac,
complish something.- Savannah News.
