Com vs. Cotton—Farming vs. Cotton- !
Planting.
[F. 11. Moofe, in the Southern Farmers*
Monthly.]
I liavfc for some time been making
Comparisons between the protits <l
fitrtfting ami cotton planting, and I
Will gite my ideas to your readers,
hoping that, they may look this thing
ftqfiareiy in the face, and may induce
some Of them to change from all cot
fOn to at least mixed fanning and
planting. For vears the South has
been told that it is suicidal to plant
cotton to purchase corn, meat, mules,
horses and other tilings needed Uy the
planter, but all to no use ; for each
year the idea has been entertained by
every one that every one else, save
himself, would quit, raising cotton, and
that the price would be large and he
would get riclf, and last year the price
was remunerative, and all went in for
the last acre that could be cultivated,
and ruin billowed. And, so far as the
general prosperity of the country is
concerned, it makes no difference
whether the price of cotton is eight
cents or twenty cents. As every dol
lar goes up North to pay for what we
buy. This course will bring ruin and
poverty as sure as time runs.
The sun does not shine upon a land,
nor never will, that became a prosper
ous country that depended entirely on
the plow and the Ime to make mane}'.
Farming, even at best, pays but poor
wages, and the fact that the farmer
raises some stock and his own food is
his only chance for making money.
In making the comparison between
corn and cotton. I shall take the river
bottom of the Mississippi valley, and
suppose the comparison will bold good
in other sections, and will take low
middling cotton as a sample, as that
is the quality we make. A good crop
for a good man that will put in his
time well is eight bales, or 4.000 lbs.,
lint, cotton (the average is less than
5.000. but I will take the largest crop)
Low Middling is worth now in New
Orleans nine and one-fourth, whieli is
eight cents nctF Four thousand lbs.*
of cotton at eight cents will he $320
Now, the same labor that it required
to cultivate and pick this 4,000 lbs. of
cotton will make 2.000 bushels of corn
worth now in New Orleans sixt.y-th-ee
cents per bushel by the car load. This
corn can he taken to New Orleans and
put in the elevator by barges for six
cents per bushel, ami seven cents will
more than cover the cost of shelling
and selling, leaving a net profit of 50
cents per bushel, or SSOO, making a
difference of SIBO in favor of the corn.
Now, if peas were planted in the corn
at the last plowing they would fatten
one hog to each acre, making at least,
$5 per acre. But I am aware that,
some planters will say that they rent
their land and can get more net money
per acre with cotton than with corn.
If they will make a fair calculation of
the cost of each ami charge up to cot
ton the waste of the negro and give
the corn credit for the improvement in
the land, then they will find that the
corn pays double the rent that cotton
does.
In mv vicinity planters are paying
$1 per bushel for corn on a credit, pay
able out- of the next fall crop. If cot
ton should sell for seven cents net. it,
will require 14 2-7 pounds of cotton to
pay for one bushel of corn. If a man
can exchange his 2.000 bushels of
corn lor cotton at these figures, he
will get 14,570 pounds of cotton for
his crop of corn, or about thirty six
bales of cot ton ; in other words, we
send thirty-six bales of cotton up
North to pay for the corn that one
man can make. Is there any wonder
that we are as poor as a church mouse ?
And Bill Arp Is about right when he
says, ** I am afeered we are a nation
of tools.”
There lias long been an impression
up North, and even in the South, that,
we can’t raise stock to profit—that we
have no grass—on n’t, feed st>ek—that
the flies are too bad—that we have too
many diseases; while the fact is, we
have more and better grasses than the
North has. AVe can raise hogs, cattle,
sheep, mules and horses for one-hall
the cost that it requires up North.
And to fatten the stock for market, it
can he done with peas even on the
poor land of Georgia for less money
than it can be done in the North, and
while we are raising stock we are im
proving our lands instead of wearing
them out.
I am well aware tlfcrc is a strange
fascination In planting cotton. We
see in the spring that S4O a bale, and
ten bales of cotton to the hand, but
from some cause we can’t see the ex
pense attending the making of the
crop.
A few days since I saw an article
in an lowa paper telling of the sale of
seventy five hogs by one man, all of
his own raising and fattening, for
si)B7. or about three times as much as
can be made by one man cultivating
cotton. I sec also an item in the New
Orleans Times of a planter who fat
tened 600 head of lmgs, making bO.OOO
pounds of pork, which he soldjor $4,.
500, nearly the whole of which was
net profit. Had he made this into
baron, it wonld be worth now $6,000,
which is a nice income.
Brother planters, there is an easier
and better way to make money than
by planting cotton to buy meat and
bread.
Kxistixo Follies. —Many of our
farmers aro buying large quantities of
fertilizers at high prices, who annually
permit tons of manure to go to waste
alsmt their baruvards. The accumula
tion of filth and manure should be
hauled away from the barn and yard,
and it is much better to make it serve
as a fertilizer than not. AVe advocate
the use of commercial fertilizers only
when there is not manure in sufficient
quantities. The use of poor farming
implements will be found to be far
more expensive to the husbandman
than would the purchasing of the best
quality on the market. The cheap im
plements will be constantly requiring
to be repaired. They bring a source
of expenditure without any income. I
have frequently seen hands lose the
greater part of a day in repairing the
implements with which they were at i
Win k, and at the same time the work i

Rotary Harrow.
XMIIS Harrow is simple in its construc-
X tion. combining strength and light
ness, and cannot easily get on of order.
It revolves continually while in operation,
so that turf, stones, corn huts, or any oth
er obstruction of the kind cannot clog it.
The reason of it is the rapid motion of the
teeth; therefore, as a Pulverizer, Soil Mix
er, Destroying Bermuda Grass, and for
Covering Grain, it has no equal. We ear
nestly invite all farmers, mechanics and
business men to examine tin's Harrow, feel
ing assured that it cannot fail to meet their
highest approval. The following named

Italy has a remarkably iarge and

vintage Lakes place in October, and
the prospect of an abundant, supply of
wine lias filled the hearts of the
peasants with gladness.
Mussulman pilgrims now go to
Mecca by Mediterranean steamers,
instead of making the long caravan

The Boycotting principle has found
its way into Russia, where it is being
applied to the Jews. The Germans
residing in a district near Odessa have
decided, by formal resolution, that any
member of their community letting
lodgings to the Jews shall be fined
fifty raubles.
Germany has the most accommoda

Methodism in Chicago is in an up

conspicuous etergyinen of the Chicago
Conference can be convicted on one
or another of the charges sustained in
the case of Dr. Thomas, and that pro

Buffalo Bill introduces real Indians

and had to be dragged off the stage.
Mrs. Staples was boastful of her

had done, and commanded her to hang
herself, which she did on the follow

The help already given to the Michi
gan sufferers, together with the promise
of more, has saved many a farm to its
owner. Immediately after the fire,
speculators hurried into the burned
over district with cash, expecting to
lie able to buy the land at trifling
prices; but the farmers, encouraged
by the prompt assistance, have
declined to sell.
An unpleasant sensation has been
caused in Bristol, England, by the dis
overy that a cargo of 300 tons of hu

and are the remains principally of the

The New York WortJ calls alien tion
to the fact that on Tuesday looming

mast from 57 ocean steamships, 53
ships, 246 barks. 40 brigs and 189
schooners lying in the port of New
York, making a total of 594 vessels ;
and that the ocean steamers every
one, and of theother vessels two thirds,
displayed the flags of foreign powers.
This display marked two mournful
events in the Irstory #f this country
the death of our ocean commerce at
the hands of the party in power; as

upon Moscow as the true centre of
Russian patriotism. On the other side
it is urged that tbe history <d’ Russia
as a great European power date* from
the foundation of St. PeteisLurg. and
that the patriotism of Moscow is merely
of a local or provincial kind. St.
Petersburg is not only the seat of the
imperial court, but of Russia's social

is now using car win els made of this
iron, which the master machinist of
the company declares is splendid, close

only drawback to the development of
the iron of Texas has been the lack of
