Times change, and people are shifted from one point of obser¬ vation to another, and, later in life, we are often, because of our past experience, enabled to see things to a better advantage than we could see at the outset. When vve were a boy the man who cultivated only •‘patches”—hoed his crop chief¬ ly, and devoted his time to gar¬ den truck, poultry and the like, was regarded as a “oue-hoss” farmer, aud held in contempt by the man, or at least by the sons of the man, with the broad acres, new appliances and spanking flue teams. But things have changed. The staple crops have run away down in prices. They don’t pay good interest on the tine fixtures of the big teams and the broad acres. A new system is n accessary. The “oue-hoss j j farmer must be imitated. The acreage of cotton, corn and wheat must be cut down. The home larder must be looked to first. Diversified farming must be resorted to. The South¬ ern planter must become the Southern small farmer. He must grow fruit and vegetables and raise his own meat, his poultry, his eggs, honey, and the like, and not depend on cot¬ ton alone to sustain him. He must live, as it were,nearer the house: must think of the crib, the barn-loft, the cellar, aud the smoke-house—must stock up for home consumption, and raise a small surplus of each to sell in order to get him that which he cannot raise, but must have. In this line lies the farmer’s redemption. He can work out his own salvation if he will pursue this course. Let him make his wants as few as pos¬ sible, and his surplus of each product of the farm limited. then the consume!S in the Clt inswho do not produce will seek him out, because they must live. rr 1 , ho farmers , then . he „„ „ come the master muster of or the me situa- situa tion, and for that which he pro duces lie is bound, under such conditions, to get good prices. _T?
