Tlio loss of about ono-fourth tho la bor formerly expended in cotton cul ture, by the withdrawal of women and children from field labor. The biro of hands for part of tho crop, and tho failuro to begin work by the first of January, resulting in tho loss of about two month’s labor on tho average. The necessity of supplying food and forago for hands and stock, during time when both aro idlo, supplying the hands with luxuries and supplies, for which quarterly payments have to be paid to merchant®, or casti, or a very high iuterost to brokers and ban kers for money advanced, while tho planters only income is derived from saio of lint cotton, and is received but once in twelve mouths. The necessity of picking cotton with all tho hands, in order, to save, gin and pack it, so as to meet notes falling due, and thereby leaving stock idle for months, during which time each head will average from 30 to 40 cents per day by consumption of food alone— and no tirno taken to sow wheat, oats, or other small grain. The impossibility of procuring ex tra labor to pick cotton, and a minim um cost for such as may be found, of 50 cts. per 100 lbs. (assuming a gener al average ) Tho neglect of fonces and enterior enclosures, without which, under ex isting laws, no stock, cattle, sheep, swine or other live stock can be suc cessfully or economically raised ; and the difficulty of hiring hands to spilt rails when needed, at a cost of 75 cts. per 100 rails, when a No. 1 hand can spilt in one day from 400 to 500 rails. Tho loss of time by hands and stock in wet weather, owing to lack of labor saving machines or steam-power. Tho purchase of necessaries, such as bacon, boef, corn, hay, etc., etc., which are considered the legitimate staple productions of farmers in other coun tries. The singular fact that thero where grass is most abundant, and pastures are whole prairies, as in Texas, goad butter is scarce and high ; while in Georgia and other States, where whole counties seem destined by nature for sheep husbandry, not a sheep and scarce a goat can be found. Tho fact that, although an acre in clover, with ail annual expenditure, after necessary implements aro obtain ed, of one dollar per ton, makes a net profit as groat on the average as an aero in cotton, with not a tithe of tho labor or time expended, and yet it is probable that thero are not 3000 arces in Georgia devoted to clover or the grasses. Vineyards occupy still loss atten tion. Fruit, us an oxciusivo businoss, has scarcely germinated. Immense quantities of New York and Northern or Western butter is sold in Georgia. Georgia fruit ought at least to cancel in New York the sale of New York butter in Georgia. In the fertile West, where Indian corn often produces an average yield of 50 bushels per acre, tanners cannot afford to "pull fodder,” yet it is a cus tom almost universal in Georgia.— Stock are often idle at this period also. Labor is worth in Georgia probably socts. per day and rations In this case the cheapest way to pull fodder is to give one-half for the other securely housed. This was formorly consid ered in the North, we think, the cost of securing hay by hand. The “mow er” has changed all that—one hand can with a mower'cut from ten to fif teen acres per day. _ Every a cro of good hay ought to yield 1300 lba. at each cutting.— Shucks when properly cured and cut up, are as valuable as fodder—do not cost hall as much—yet very few Georgia planters uso shucks economically, and generally ono-third of tho value is lost by fulling on the ground. The cultivation of corn as a fodder crop is scarcely known, and tho pro cess of saving by means of “stocks” is as foreign to our practice. Proba bly not a Georgia planter grinds his corn and cob together into meal for food for cattle, swine or live stock. The small grains, (save cats,J clovfcr, the grasses, root crops, for the cultiva tion of which God gave us tho four seasons, are crowded out by tho cult ure of cotton. Wages being paid at the close of the year, because cotton sales form the only means of payment, all hand rush to got cotton to market, and “have no tune' 1 to sow small grains, turn under green crops, or pursue a rational sys tem of husbandry according to its nat ural laws. Negroes being ignorant, suspicious, neglectful, as all hirelings as a rule are, cannot understand ‘-interest” as applied to dollars and cents, become dissatisfied and unreasonable. The economy of tiniG is an enigma to them ; and they refuse that an hour lost is a theft committed. If a “hand” loses one-half huur each day in a year, he will lose 150 hours or nearly half a month a labor. An hour lost every day then is a month lost in the year. Probably not a planter or farmer in Georgia charges for all time lost. Yet factories, railroads, mills—nearly all regular industries in Georgia— charge one quarter of a day, if a hand loses 15 minutes. Scarcely any industry could long maintain itaolf, if this one item, lost time, was practically ignored, as cotton planters as a rulo "do ignore it. Charge a hand with an hour’s work, with wages rated at CO cents per day, and inform him that ho can go to work an hour later each morn ing with a loss of only 5 cents, and ; few would rise with tho sun even, when, by that time, if cotton is tho crop cultivated, they should bo at work. < If ho loses 15 miuutes, charge him 15 cts (aboTO wages being granted); or if ho persist 1 *, dismiss him, and we will soon find that above price is cheap enough. That this is practicable the writer has demonstrated, although ho does not know another agricultuuist who practices it. In order to make it generally practicable, it must be gen erally practiced. All tho laborcres in the country havo to work or starve, and tho only reason why farmers can't got hands as readily as manufactories, foundrios, mills, railroads, etc., etc., is owing to high wages pai l and fre quent pay ments to hands hired by the day. The only way by which they can afford to givo such wages, is by establishing a fchodulo of pro-rata charges for all time lost. The balance sheet can then bo adjusted. It is singular that Dr. Pendleton and other calculators for tho Cultivator should have omitted -this vast item among tho “expenses” of cotton planting. Another item should bo considered, viz : fuel, and cost of hauling aud pro viding the same. What other indus try omits this great chargo ? They also omit “repairs of fences”—a great er annual tax than that imposed by the Government. Tho system of paying “money wages ’’ would alone enabloono to keep a proper Dr. & Cr. account. The neglect of im posing proper charges for all lost time, forced us to offer a sliaro in tho crop. We will consider, for example, the cost of time lost by eight mules aud sixteen hands in one year, on a plan tation cultivating only 274 acres in corn, cotton and oats. (See Dr. I’en dleton’sestimate in Cultivaotr for July): Days lost by stock, (Sundays) 52 days. “ “ “ “ rain and bad weather, 53 “ 105 “ Lost by hands rain aud bad weather, 35 “ To 8 mules, 105 days, at 36.- 75 $294 00 To 16 hands, 35 days, at 60 cts. pvr hand, 336 00 Total value of lost time, if no other crops or repairs are made $620 00 Any system which subjects cupital to the caprices of labor is ia its root vicious. A. T. Steward, of New York, could never havo succeeded in managing a business so colossal, bad ho not originated a system which has affected merchandise all over America. Cannot cotton planting bo made as re liable an investment as cotton manu facture. The agriculturist as well as tho man ufacturer in tho South, has the advan tages of climate—working all winter —fuel and wuter in abundance, which the Y r aukoo has not; but all of these combined will not equal tho system aud discipline of labor in a Northern factory. When they invest a dollor, it t is like converting so many bushels of wheat into Hour—they can calculate the interest. Steam is the application of precision - Now all tho labor counted as lost in tho above exhibit, may bo easily and profitably employed, without interrupt, lug the usual operations of the plan tation. g 3 ® g c’S’ 3g* g S'g g gSg&^SI ti if 8 M H" I s% -egf r p s ?! g II fvlfo-“ ■ 1 g.* |-| 111 j s-fslf !
