CAN COTTON BE RAISED FOR
SIX CENTS.
Some of our Northern land more no
tably English cousins claim It ©an and
that the fact has been demonetreued
by the planter of the South, from ne
cessity or choice putting every spare
acre in cotton. Be this as It may. the
writer is not a convert to those figures
and believes ft can be done only under
exceptionally favorable circumstances,
and of -this he had a chance* to Judge
on Friday, when accepting an Invita
tion to visit the farm In Jones county
of Hon. JUckson Roberts.
Seven miles over good roads, in com
pany with that pleasant and genial
factor, W. A. Davis of our city, were
rioon passed and we found ourselves at
the hospitable country home of Uncle
Jack Roberts, as he is familiarly called
by his friends. Here, after lounging
away the morning and sampling va
rious melons of different kinds and
growth, we were Invited to a dinner
such as only the good housewife -of a
prosperous farmer oan spread before
her guest. Milk, cooled by nature’s
own sweet breath, and chicken pie
such as was made "before the war,"
presided over by a handsome matron
assisted by a Charming daughter, who
is studying the practical sciences in
the norma-k school at Mllledgevllle.
LOOKING OVER THE CROP.
Our host hrvtted us to ride over his
broad fields, many of which have been
In cultivation for more than seventy-
live years. (Mounted on his able and
willing nag, -whv> sidled, up to 'the first
gate as gracefully as a maiden In a
cotillion, his gray locks floating in- the
breeze bemb.tii his Qarge-ibrlm wool
hat, he looked 'the picture of peace and
contentment. Acre after acre of cotton
and the same of corn, we rode over
and asked questions slbout 'this land
under cultivation for more years than
our host had lived, (and he is now 70),
Is producing -today as good, nay, better
crops than it ever did. *.
IMPROVED MACHINERY.
With a twenty-horse engine running,
cotton gin and grist min. Uncle Jock
ventured the assertion tha't his boys
could <pack, weigh and put on the
wagon a bale of cotton In four minutes
after the press was started. Thus we
fee the age of progress. "With men cul
tivating one-third more land than only
a few years since was deemed possi
ble. with machinery, with fertilizers,
•with good management, the question
arises, can -we raise cotton a‘t 6 cents,

ry effect on the market,
today shows no favorable
gain for e.ther thoso on the long side
the short side of the market. Prices
re materially the same as this time
week ag». Exports for noth, coasts,
1,000 bushels of wheat and flour, show
an Increase of 500,000 bushels over last
week. Weekly shipiu-nH, e.'XuoO wheat,
Iso show' an Increase over last year,
•hlch were 183.8S0 bushels. The market
today haa been decidedly weak and dull.
What little vim then was apparent at
opening soon vanished on reports of
liberal farmers’ deliveries of new wheat
and the expected large movement next
eek. Tlws. together with the weakness
in forlgn cfcbUk which show a decline of
pence for London wheat, is discouraging
to holders and bids fair to further
press prices.
Coarse grains have ranged pretty much
after the character of wheat, prices
day being virtually the same as a week
ago. What strength there was exhibited
about the middle of the week was on
the high temperatures In the'corn belt
and damage to crops, but on reports of
favorable rains this morning the mar
kets sagged dohvn, showing no gain in
prices, the prospects of increased receipts
being an offset to the light offerings,
which had no material effect, as the fie-
man-l was poor. Very little doing In a
speculative way the entire week In pro
visions. With the exception of the South-'
ern demand for prompt shipment noted
about the middle of the week, which soon
disappeared, there Is no notable feature.
