OYlFeSTUS STEWART, ■m Mrr*;fc Devoted to the Interest of Taliaferro t'oua l y, the People and General Seta 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 on sea., tv allowance—that of tb* I roughest kmd-and ... » what * . is • worse still. 5 *i 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.
