A Chtngo la Necessary la our Farming.
John H. Dent In Houthurn Cultivator.
The cotton crop this year has
been |ierhaps the largest ever made
In the Bontli, but much has been
lost for the want of hands to pick It
out in .time. Hauds arc scarce,
hence much was lost, as the pick
ing was behind, and tbe storms de
stroyed much of It, and the loss In
quality and quantity was large.
The hands that made It were, not
able lo save it, anil hired help
could not be had. We have the
force to save It, were It employed
on tbe farms as formerly. But
evury year new industries are
springing up and being extended
and enlarged, hence, there is more
demand for labor, and tbe labor re
quired is being drawn from the
farms, consequently farm hands
are becoming scarce. Ills useless
to make more cotton than can be
saved, so why plant so largely
of cotton? Would it not bo best
to curtail the cotton arop
anil adopt a more diversified sys
tem of farming, and raise .11 our
farm supplies, Instead of buying
them? There Is this about It? farm
where you may and plant what you
may, nnle'ss the farm Is mado self-
supporting -aud self-sustaining,
there will he no money In farming.
The Bouth makes annually between
six and seven million bales of cot
ton, worth at least $300,000,000, and
still her farmers are depressed, and
why so? Because the most of
that Urge amount of money la
spent in buying food supplies,
horses aud mules that could be
raised by her farmers. But if our
labor becomes diversified and finds
employment In tbe many uow In
dustries springing up ull over the
South, the cotton crop must neces
sarily be curtailed, which Vrlll be
better for the Southern farmers
than the system they have pursued
for the last twenty years. The
South Is umlergoluga great change.
Formerly It was strictly an agrl •
cultural country, now it Is becom
ing a mining and manufacturing,
as well as agricultural, and her
oonimerce is being largely Increas*
ed. This must necessarily wrought
great changes In her former busi
ness modes and system*. Who
aro to feed this large pop
ulation employed In mining
manufacturing, railroading,
commerce and other pursuits t Is
tbe Northern farmer to do It, at
they have heretofore done, or the
Southern farmers? Surely JUi to
the Interest of the Southern farmer
to do so, and keep the money
among us that Is sent North for the
supplies, let the Southern farmer
havq at least a part of the money
be|ng made in our country, lustead
of most of It being sent to add to
Northern wealth.. 'Ve speak of the
poverty of our people. Uow can It
be otherwise when we neglect our
opportunities at^d let the money
South go to Northern farmers
and Northern merchant, and rail
roads; wfjMCi and complain of the
upjuit dLcrlmlnatlonJniadc against
the South by national legislation,
and how are we to protect ourselves
against such, ooept by maklug i ho
South self-sustaining, aud Inde
pendent of the North. We can
only do an by keeping the wealth
J. "Kldrldge, sources give us, let our profits r»
Whilst wo are strictly an agrlcul
must roly on to make farming prof
itable. Has not twenty year* ex
perlence convinced them that It
has been a delusion ? They have
jvorked at It faithfully and unre
mittingly, and still they are poor,
then cotton baa consumed the prof
its by the expense of making It,
and has made others rich, hut kept
us poor. It 1* time they- would
ehsuge their eyeUm, and try
diversified farming," and feed our
selves and feed our people engaged
in other pursuit*. Out of tbie eeven
million bales a portion of U they
will put in their pockets as a clear
profit but a email fraction of it, the
expense account consumes the
profits. It such be true, we o?ed
radical change In our system of
farming. More grain, rnoro grass,
more stock and lees cotton. But
little plowing and sowing of email
grain has been done so far this fall,
as cotton picking occupies all the
labor we have. Hands to plowcan
not be had, tbe mines and the cot'
ton fields employ all the laborers In

now but little engaged In farming.
I have hut two tenants ou my farm
