THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION, TUESDAY, MARCH 7, 18S2.
HAPPY “COSN RAISERS,”
and the
UNHAPPY
COTTON.
SLAVES OF
Some Argument! From the Farmer*-A Record of Ac*
mol Experiment—What Practice! Ken Say About
the TrueSucomsin Farming-A Batch of
Letter* from Different Section*.
Tiif. Constitution is on record as contend*
ini? that it is impossible for any farmer to
sustain himself, whether lie farms on cash or
credit, if he plants cotton to the exclusion of
provision crops.
We have brought example after example to
show that the all-cotton policy is ruinous. A
few days ago Commissioner Henderson - said,
in The Constitution, “I am satisfied that
there is not a single farmer in the state who
has made money, unless he raises his own
provisions.”
We determined to mnkc a test of this mat
ter l>y consulting our correspondents through
out the state. We therefore addressed a cir
cular to a responsible man in every county in
the state, inserting the following questions
and instructions:
1. Please give us the names of the four or five
rno»! successful farmers In your county.
2. Please say whether or not the farmers you select
an the most prosperous plant all eolton or ruise
iheir provisions and make cotton a surplus.
We want to ascertain whether or not there arc
any farmers who mnkc money by planting cotton
and buying the provisions to make it with.
The answers to these inquiries arc coming
in freely, and tve append a batch for to-day’s
reading. It will be seen that the testimony
is absolutely unbroken in favor of our theory.
Every single man who is named as a prosper
ous fanner is a “corn-raiser,” and no man who
buys his provisions is reported as being able
to keep his head above water. These letters
will surely he convincing.
From Floyd county we get the following:
A OBOCP OK COKN-BAISF.KS.
Cave Spring, Go., February 25, 1882.—The Con
stitution: In reply to tne circular, in consultation
with gentlemen who have an extensive acquain
tance with the farmers of this county, mention the
following names as successful farmers. They all
farm on the diversified plan, and raise all the food
supplies used on their farms, und they are prooper-
ous farmers living and doing well, to-wit: James
Kemp, tlrcon Cunningham, Ike Gailliard, C. P.
Morton, and I>. T. llriscoe.
More wheat und oats have been sown in this
county than for many years past—and looks fine.
More corn will be planted tills sprint—at least forty
tier cent more than last year. The fanners are be
ing convinced all cotton and no food crops are
bringing them to ruin. J. II. I>knt.
The next letter comes from Ellaville, and
furnishes two or three examples of the great
truth:
••raiseTttF.ln MEAT AND BL'V NO CORN.”
K1.1.AVIM.E, February 27.—Editors Constitution,
Atlunta. lia.—Your letter requesting me to give you
the names of four or five most successful farmers
in my county came duly to hand, and 1 will cheer-
full giant your request: Mr. Dupre Peacock isu
large planter mid succeeds well with wages at eight
dollars per month anil rations. He raises a greater
portion of his meat and never buys corn. He Inva
riably sows a large area in small grain, which 1
think is the true principle of Ids success. Mr.
Thomas J. Murphy Is quite successful with croppers
or working on shares. Mr. Thomas J. Dozier the
name. Mr. S. A. Sellars !sn very successful planter,
lie never buys any fertilizers, lie raises everything
at home. Mr. C. L. Untile; also Mr. Eli Stewart
and quite a number more I could name. Every
one of them make their farms self-sustaining. It is
such planters us these and these only that make
farming profitable. E. S. Baldwin.
A letter from Amorims brings us brief hut
pointed information on the subject under in
quiry:
THE SAME OLD STORY,
AMF.itirrs, Ga., February 27.—Editors Constitu-
-^-UOitrYmir-ctTPulnr of the 22d hm.rvmilrtnir in
quiry in reference to successful farming to hand,
and 1 hasten to reply.
I will say that .Mr. M. G. Logan, William Pilcher,
William Davidson and George W. Council arc very
successful planters. They all raise their supplies at
hon.c, have diversified crops, and they have made
planting a success. 1 will also mention Mr. J. H.
1 Black who is a nlanter. and tanner and shoe and
1 boot manufacturer, and a merchant. He raises
!| something of every thing that this soil and climate
will produce, and makes his business self sustaining
and profitable.
1 know no men who raise all cotton that arc doing
well. Chab. C. Shut ard.
Out correspondent from Greensboro writes
that it is hard to find the men we want, but
when he does find them they arc “corn-rais
ers,” as witness:
HARD TO FIND, BUT HF. FINDS "CORN-RAtSF.ItS.’
Greensboro. Ga., February 27.—Editors Coostl
union: I am sorry to say I find it a difficult matter
to find lour or live successful farmers in our county.
I send you, however, the names of four of our corn
and meat producers who are doing, perhnps, as well
as could lie expected in view of the bad seasons we
have had for tne last three years. I do not know of
all-cotton” planter in the county who is not by
far iMwrer than he was live yeats ago.
Messrs. Adam Andrews, A. II. Smith, J. C. Merrit
and M W Lewis are independent of the store-keeper
..s regards meat and bread, and are working in the
right direction.
If thousands more throughout this section could
be Induced to follow their example vast good
would result to nu r farming interests.
Yours, etc., J. B. Y. Warner.
Here is a remarkable statement of districts
in which no cotton is planted, and in which
every man is pros)>erous. We could rest our
case on this letter alone:

Mr. J. C. Harman, of Washington county,

names of farmers who arc prosperous, that
occur to me as I write.

many of them fruit crops.
Several of these men raise valuable fruit Cropo,

uouble crops of cotton. Yours truly,
J. c. Harman.
We close to-day's installment of letters with
a good one from Crawford county:

tion: Yours inquiring a* to successful planters

—and there are a good y number—is raising hi,s
own com and oats, peas, syrup, etc., show lug enn-
lusively that diversified fanning (and that alone)

We have a full column of letters similar to
these, and many “counties are yet to hear
from.” We reserve for another issue of Tjie
Constitution some of the most striking testi-
money, and we will have made out an over-
helming ease before we get through with it.
In the meantime farmers who projrose to
plant “all cotton” and buy provisions, will
no well to ponder on the practical examples
that we furnish this morning.
farming, not "planting.” has paid for land $2,000,
has mules, cattle, liegs and sheep, and not least,
ten boys and three daughters, and finds money to
send all except the baby to school.
Rev. Kobert McClure, without a dollar, has paid
fora $2,000 farm, has bought a reajier, mower and a
Hughes sulky plow, and educated his children.
llenry Clay Jones, without a dollar, has paid for
a SI.000 farm, has stock of all kinds, and lives on
the fat of the land.
Tom Spencer, without a dollar, has paid (or a
$2,009 farm.
Not a boll of cotton has been planted by any of
these men—com. wheat, oats, hay are their crops,
l.lme the only purchased fertilizer. In Fair Play
district, not a seed of cotton lias been planted, and
there has not been on insolvent tax payer lor three
years. Toccoa district is a cotton and guano dis
trict, and has insolvent tax payers and county pin
pers. I could give the names of very many farm
ers who commenced in 1868, (for we did not reach
home until too late in 1865) who have not only
made a good living, hut farms and independent
citizens by farming: hut scarcely a man who lias
made a dollar by cotton.
There are more sulky plows, S-horse, 14 inch to 1
inch, in that than any comity in the state, and
think Colonel Geo. S. Owens has the best appoint
ed farm in Georgia.
Again, we have liecn raising short horn Ayershiro
and Jersey cattle for thirty years and imported Dur-
lmms for forty years. James P. Phillips.
We could n*t ask for a more succinct and
definite answer than is furnished in the fol
lowing letter from Eaton ton:
EVERY COTTON PLANTER BROKE.
Eatonton, Ga., February 25.1882.—Editors Con
stitution : In reply to yours of the 22d instant 1 will
give you the names of R. C. Humber. John Spivey,
Robert Little, A. A. Denham and W. A. Gatewood
The above gentlemen all raise their grain and most
of their bacon and are making money.
Every man in our county who has endeavored to
raise cotton alone- has broke.

Huvannah New*.
The fire on Thursday night, the reflection ‘
which caused a vigilant and zealous police
man to sound an alarm from station No. 32,
cornerof Wayne and West Broad streets, was in
Kingsville, alittle settlement about five miles
south of Savannah. It was caused by the
burning of a house occupied by an aged
colored woman named Phillis Perry, and
the poor old creature was burned to death.
The circumstances of the distressing affair,
as we glean them, are as follows: The woman
was very old and helpless, so much so *liat one
of the neighbors bad to unlock tlic house for
her the evening before. She apparently lit a
fire on the hearth, and lay down to sleep, not
in her bed, hut before the fire, on account of
the cold. Some time near twelve o’clock the
fire seems to have caught the wood work, and
also the dress of the poor woman. A young
colored woman, sleeping up-stairs, thought in
her sleep to have heard the old woman wail
ing and lamenting, whereby she was finally
awakened, and, on opening her eyes, found
art of the roof on fire and already falling in,
bile the room below was one mass of
flame. She heard no more of the miserable
sufferer. The stairway inside the house was
already burning, and she was compelled to
jump fidm the small verandah, ten feet from
the ground, luckily escaping unhurt, but sav
ing nothing besides the clothes she slept in
except a quilt, which she had sufficient pres
ence of mind to wrap around her. The neigh
bors could not extinguisli the flames, partly
for lack of water, partly because the whole
building was ablaze. The intensity of the heat
was so great that some iron kitchen utensils
were melted. Next morning a small heap of
scorched remains of the vertebrae, with some
clotted fragments of burnt flesh adhering to
them,marked the spot where the poor creature
had laid down to rest the evening before.
Part of the thigh bone, etc., could be traced
by the calcined remains of bones. The skull
seemed consumed, except one piece of the
cranium, discovered by the coroner in the di
rection of the demolished fireplace, and
coved by some yet bunting remnants of .the
clothing. The tornado last fall destroyed the
chimney, hence the fireplace had no proper
vent, anil this seems to have been the cause
of the catastrophe, which has completed the
work of the storm, reducing the dwelling to
aches. For the survivor who lost her little all,
bed, bedstead and clothing, he would bespeak
the good services of some benevolent lady of
Savannah.
A Iti-unlon of* Family After 11? Yon,
Quitman Free Press.
We apologize to our readers for intruding
our family matters upon them by saying that
we think*it proper to foster a certain amount
of family pride, and by stating that the oc
currence of which we now mention is by no
means a common one, in this country. In
the year l(i64 John and Lydia Perham, who
had just arrived from the mother coun
try, settled in the town of
Chelmsford Massachusetts. During the
217 years w’-tch have intervened the
deseendantsof tills honored couple have been
divided and scattered throughout the United
States and territories, and in the multiplicity
of their business engagements, and m the
scramble for wealth, honor and power have
never in all this time found it convenient to
come together in the capacity of a family tea
>arty. We have always heard that the Per
tains were slow but sure, and have perhaps
exemplified this family trait more than once
in our own person. At any rate, that such
tlic case here we have ample proof.
After the lapse of more than two cen
turies, and after being scattered to the four
winds of the earth, the family of Perhams is
to have a grand reunion at the old homestead
at Chelmsford, near the spot where the bones
of their ancestors rest peacefully in honored
graves. Had we ever been hung and thus
disgraced the family name, then would we be
loth to put in an appearance on this impor
tant occasion. As it is, we shall try to be
there, and if in no other manner we can edify
our assembled relatives of the north, we can
at least diversify the scene by appearing just
as we are—a full-fledged Georgia craeker.

The most remarkable exhibit in the steel rail
monopoly is the achievement of Tennessee. While
every otlier steel-rail Bessemer steel factory was
coining money, this state, in 1880, by her own
showing, actually lost money in making steel-rails.
The figures stand its follows:
Total production in Tennessee in 1SS0, val- _
Cost of material $i:t6.7.W
Cost of labor 40,000 176,750
Apparent loss $29,500
Thus it appears that Tennessee is as unfortunate
in steel-rail making as in financiering.
