W' tiTpre<i:ite so profoundly the |
« iund & hi '0 and excellent logi'' of the j
address recently delivered by the Hun.
Horace t a iron, Commissioner of Ag- 1
rieulture, before the Agricultural Con
gress of tl e Cotton States at Augusta,
that we willingly devote our space to
the publication of the address for the
benefit of our rondo 8, to whom tho
prosperity of oar agriculture, and tin*
nest course to advance the material
interests of our State, must be a sub
ject of grave importance. General
Capron’s listened to with
profound attention by the members of
the Congress, composed of eminent
planters and agriculturists of the
Ikmth.
Mr. President, and Ladies and Gentle
men :—lt is with pleasure that I have
accepted your invitation to he pr a *nt
and to 00-op< rate with you in tho ile
volopement of your industry. In the
exhibition of the Cotton States Ar,sO* i
ation, as witnessed yesfi rlay. I soo au
earnest of the spirit ot progress wlucn
1 hope may animate the prai tical es
io’ts of that as-o iation and of the
Cong!ess here assembled In the ad
mirable address of Dr. Tutt, your pres
ident, I was delighted to see embodied
the principles which underlie true in
dustrial progress, and heartily com
mend the practical suggestions ot too
orator of the day, Mr. Compton, look
ing toward larger production and fewer
a*, res.
I thank you for this opportunity of
presenting, very briefly, a low sugges
tions concerning the immediate, pres
sing agricultural needs of tile South.
You will permit me to ex j ress my con
victions plainly, in a spirit of utmost
kindness and sympathy. You know
well, and havo boasted long, the ad
vantages and resources of the “Cotton
States,” the gTeat variety and produc
tive capacity of your soils-a delight
ful climate, so varied by elevation and
configuration of surface as to be adapt
ed alike to the fruits and fibres ot the
tropics and all the productions <>i the
t« nj etc zones— a wealth of precious
und useiul m. tals sulticiout to supply
for generations the material for the
artisans of the w orld—an amount
of water power wonderful to contem
plate, and the largest supply of timber
and wood to be found within the
United States. Yet you are constant
ly and rapidly reducing tire fertility of
those soils, and turning out farm after
farm to swell the area of the hundred
million acres of exhausted lauds. You
ignore the marvelous capabilities of
jour tunny climate, in neglecting tho
myriad forms of production to which
elevation, latitude, situation, soils, and
various naturalpecuhuiiii>;scontribute
so munificently. Your minerals are
hidden iu the bowels of the earth,
waiting to respond to the call of ei.t r
prise and tho magic touch of lal oi ;
your water p wer, in its silent majesty
of resistioss energy, goes “oil forever”
iu its thousand lilies of march to the
st a, oecosionally reminding you, as at
Richmond or in the Shenandoah of its
mighty capabilities which you have so
long permitted to ruu to waste.
Your forests are solitudes, unblest
with the hum of'a busy and enriching
labor, while your very hoe-handles
are often brougnt from distant States,
end your finest timber is remorselessly
girdled that your lauds may be cleared
by that slow woodman grim decay.
You possess a tract of country fit
for a mighty empire. It is actually a
wilderness, almost a solitude, its r Til
roads, turnpikes,manufactories, model
school houses and churches are vet
mainly in the future. All this work
is before you. It is true the country
is comparatively new and very wi le,
and the workers are few, but \suus of
it have been settled for two hundred
yuais, and yet scrubby pine forests
{prow where the settlers grew their
supply of corn and tobacco Has im
provement been consummate with vour
resources and in proportion to the
population? and has tho population
Kept pace with other less fawned por
tions of tho country, or made such ad
vances as reasonably hare been
expected immense resources?
iho truth compels me to answer no—
your consciousness echoes the negative.
Hhy is it'? The reasons are many.
Prominent among them are those :
First. A wasteful aud slovenly sys
tem of agriculture, tho curse of our
wholo aounti% has been practiced iu
the cotton States.
Second. The extention of the ra y
products of agriculture by manufacture
lias been ignored or discouraged, cul
ture has been restricted to a few crops,
and the policy of buying nearly every
thing .ueeded to eat| drink, or wear
has been oncouraged.
Third Labor has been mainly re
stricted to a servile class, becoming a
badge of dishonor, rather than a crown
of glory that it is; a large portion of
the people have formerly' lived in com
parative idlenss or productive employ
ment, and tho intellect aud ambition
of the influential or ruling class nag
been spent upon politics,to the neglect
of material developemout.
You have sometimes hold commer
cial conventions while destitute of any
commerce of your own, it is a signifi
cant sign of the times that you now
an exclusively agricultral people as
sembled to consider the means of ag
ricultural improvements aud the o-en
eral prosperity of your section.
** ave JUtPMd to my frank
detail of obstacles to progress, permit
me with equal brevity, to note certain
means of
My first counsel would be—practice
ft restorative instead of an exhaustive
•ystem of agrieultui o. A system that
involves abandonment of land* and
removal to new scenes is unw,,rthy of
the ago and u reproach to modern civ
ilization.
No man is worthy to boa fanner
who does net annually leave his land
in better tilth and strength than be
found it. The intellect ''must share!
more largely with muscle the tl! of ag
riculture; nmeuiuery directed by skil
| led labor, and propelled by brute force
, and also by the mighty power of
■ - *aui, must take the plaro of cxnen
| sive and msuihcien human strength,
j This change, as 1 sai lj n this State a
I year ago, “involves the necessitv for
! smaller lanns, hi'tN'r culture, liberal
use ol manu e, rotation in crops, and
a larger working capital in pronortion
to permanent investment.’ You are
already spending millions annua'lv on
the oi l lands of tho Atlantic bTitps for
commercial fertilisers. While T would
(omnonda j'dicims expenditure in
this direction,l would make this a ba
sis ot a practical relation with a fours®
of grasses and other rostorativo agen
cies of scientific agricu’turo.
Tho business of agriculture should
be un in ustry and not a speculation
I’he insane pursuit of speoia has
1 >ng been a euro to American agri'ji 1 -
ture. A whole community runs wild
upon hopes when selling at fifty cent*
per pound, and in two years they are
scarcely worth the price of picking
and extravagance begotten of high
expectations is forthwith followed hv
haudruptcy. Wheat brings $2 pe r
bushel, and whole Rtatos become
wheat fields, while every other interest
languishes, until the bread emu be
eoui *s so abundant as. to ho fed to
swine in preference to shipment for
human food. The sheep, wish wool
worth SI per pound, holds high place
in popular esteem, but is kicked from
the pasture by every Randolph of the
tann at the first indication of a heavy
decline of its fleece In vour section
cotton, n great boon to your agrieul
- us a constituent in your aggregate
of production, may become an unmi’i
gated evil il left to usurp the place of
ad other crops. The crop of last year 1
produced j? 0d,000,001', more than 150
per cent, larger than ten years ago.—
Three millions of hales may command
a profit ol S4O per bale, while 5,00*',
-iMMI may not bring a dollar above th dr
eost. llut present profits is not the
j main consideration The increase in
value and enlargement of the tvndue
tive capacity of the soil, by a judicious
rotation, including the restorative in
fluences of groen cropping and cattle
tending, i„ aa increase of capital, a
source of larger annual income, and
ii addi.ion to the inheritance of one’s
children. It not only insures a profit
from cotton culture, hut enables the
plantei to pocket tho entire proceeds
of its sale, oilier products feeding man
and beast. This leads mo to another
word of counsel, namely:
I’KOUICK MOKE AND BUY LESS.
As an individual grows rich by
what lu saves rather than by what lie
makes, so a community thrives by the
amount oi its surplus more than by
, extent ol its sales. How often has the
money received for a crop of cotton
failed to discharge indebtedness incur
| red lor all other supplies ? How many
plantations have been morgaged to so
cire such debtsf Tho day will onme.
i. w.so counsel is heeded, when tho
products of cotton will t>< an sur/na/>,
other products paying the expense ol
the limn. 1 have received, officially
abundant testimony from individual
, successes and failures, of the superior
profits of mixed husbandry with cot
ton. lam positive in the conviction
that the permanent prosperity of these
States depends upon a more diversified
agriculture. While it is true that a
large cotton crop may produce actual
ly less money than a small one, no
saue man will question tho political
economy whisk adds to this source of
revenue many others, which, together
make an aggregate many times larger.
For some years to come the cotton
manufactures ol t’ie world cannot con
tribute to the industry of the-o States
more than two or throe hundred mil
lions of dollars per annum ; while the
total production with the variety re
quired to realize the highest capabili
ties of s ’il and climate should command
a thousand millions, and two thousand
might he obtained within ton years, if
tie whole population, wi h recruits
from other States and fiom Europe,
should unite all th- ir efforts and their
industry for the accomplishment of so
grand an object. The combined value
of all other products is even now ma
teria fly larger than the value of cotton
but the proportions should he increas
ed until it shall stand fi e to one. The
cheapest beff and wool produced
iu the country arc now the product of
the grasses of the Gulf Status.
The annual sales of animal products
should soon be made to exceed greatly
the valueof the cotton crop. Tito wine
industry of France produces three hun
dred millions of dollars annually, ami
supports a population of si millions.
Then why should not your sunny
slopes, best suited to wine production
of any section of t»>e continent east of
the Rocky Mountains, compete with
the foreign vineyards, at least in our
own markets.
There is uo reason whv wo should :
send abroad for a pound of sugar,
though our home production was last
year but ten per cent, of tho consump
tion, when Louisiana alone has suita
ble laud of sufficient area to supply
tho present wants of the country.—
Your fruits iu wonderful variety, in
cluding those of tile t.opies, tho pro
ducts of which figure largely in our
imports, should annually add millions
of dollars to the wealth of the country
Scores of new and useful plants should
add to the list of those already iu cul
tivation lam yearly adding many,
through the Department of Agrieulu
ture, among tho most popular of wl ich
the present season, are tho corehorus
(or jut'-) and the cinchona, which
yields tho quinine. I shall continues
these exjMjrim nts of acclimatization,
hoping to reader you material aid in
your efiorts iu diversifying youragri-j
cultural industry In close connection I
with this idea of variety of production, j
permit mo to present my third item ol
counsel.
MAM r.UTUUr. YOUR OWN COTTON.
It Mug! md, by the magic of labor,
can m ike a dollar’s worth of cotton I
produce two dollars, and if France, by |
slid more delicate manipulation, ean j
nuke it yield three, why should not
your people, with willing hands to
vvu’k and auundhut wat< r uml fuel
ior p avur, manii.uoture a large portion
of your erops, at least into yarns and
Cour.o fabrics 't and thus add to tue
annual value of your industries a hun
dred million more. Thus you may
save fi eight,storage, commissions, the
profit ol inauu.acture, and build up
local markets to consume more of tho
edible pro iucts ol your agriculture.
Here in Augusta you have furnish
ed a notable illustration of the feasi
bility and profit of manufacturing, in
au eiiterpnse of magmti cut propor
tion , two thirds ol the enpit rl u w ueh
uas cun e irom its own net earnings.
You have already other similar works,
and should establish in every direction
enlarging them Irom their own profits
until a large share of your cotton shall
lie niamnueturof l within your own hor
de 8.
Manufacture is allied to agriculture,
while commerce is an expensive, iiod
prod olive go-between. T ere are
few interests of agriculture which do
nut inv .lve manufacture. In dairy
farming, milk is sold with no aid ot
I aim aeture, except Us it is “oxteudol
uy aid of the pump, but cheese and
butter are the products ol manufacture
wiiich fast year yiel led the value of
£d4b,ooo. Flax und hemp can only
reach the market through certain pro
cesses of manufacture, wheat must be
tureshed, corn shelled, hops carefully
kiln-dried; so with many other crops;
indeed, tho fanner must necessarily be
a manufacturer. High farming is al
ways and only found in connection,
witu ui.uiuiaoturing skill in extending
tne raw products oi agriculture , and
nu purely agricultural nation can ex
pect to attain wealth, a high state of
civilization, or great power. These
net* wnieii should be carefully pon
dered, and promptly acted upon.
Why is net ttio South to-day the
great manufacturing section of the
Country t It is lar better adapted to
such au industry than any otner sec
tion. Tan answer may be found in a
paragraph from a former official state
morn, emanating rein tne Department
oi Agriculture relating to t as section.
“idle p - til of progress has been
equady open to all, laws supposed to
ta.or a diversified industry nave been
applicable to au thates alike; the best
water power and cueapest coal are in
States tuai make no extensive use of
eituer, Hinder climates aud superior

urmslied advantages that have not
been transmuted mto net profits; and

neglecting tile guts oi (iod and spurn
ing tue labor oi man, are want to
deem iheuiseives injured by the pros
perity flowing il'uui supeiior industry
and a practical economy.”
