The farmers' hopes have been disappoint ed—dashed to the ground. Many a hopeful eno planted his crop last spring In the full expectation of selling It for not less than 7 cents per pound in the fall. Keeble and unavailing eitorts v.uv made by the Cot ton Growers' Protective Association to in duce the farmers to adopt a general reduc tion of area. The writer hereof, although In entire sympathy with the ultimate object in view, expressed his utter want of faith In the ! effectiveness of any scheme to reduce the . area at large by resolutions. Such efforts I have ever been utterly futile. It is useless to go over the arguments to show that in the very nature of the case such efforts must fail of success. It is only necessary to point to past experience ot failure in such plans. They have never reduced worth a cent and never will, liven if a general and mat< rial reduction of the cotton acre age should be effected by such means, with tile result of a material advance in | the market price, it would require the power of the United States to prevent, a tre mendous Increase in the area the next fol lowing year. It it utt< rly Impr; ctlca-ble to control live hundred thousand farmers of the cotton states by conventions and reso lutions looking to what may be called “Hat” reduction. Were the area to bo reduced by force of . law, or by some w!<i . pr< a.d disaster, such i | us a destructive frost in May, ami the prod- j uct be cut down to six mill.(.ms of bales (or | less) and the price should advance to 10 | cents a jxiund and be maintained until another planting season, no argunn lit, rea son or persuasion would avail to prevent the planting of by far tlie largest aria over before planted; and wo would probably harvest a 12.00v.U00 or 11,Uu0,000-bale crop, that will have cost an av< rage of not less th.in I cents a pound, and be forced to sell 11 at s(' its, or less. I'ut cotton at 10 cents a pound for one twelvemonth, and let. the price of cotton goods go up corresponding- ■ ly. and tho maikets of the world would not require ten m llions of bales. : <'.>HV< ntioius. state end inlet kite, district I ' associations and county clubs ot farnie-is j ■ may do much toward suit lug the problem, I but it must la' doitu along d.i ■ r. nt lin s. It ■ i must be along lit:' ;. it- must , ■ ■ ' or to ' united <molt to accomplish an unattainable , .. but to th i .■ i nmon eiisc , ! and self-interest of each individual farmer. I Jiavo made the argunu ... on this Imo | betui. ; WO 1. IXO been pr.sslng it with all . ' the ability n.t command for vi-ral years. The argument is in a nutshell, and the , tih.cH m.iv bo fusiiy cr*i<’ktAl tHJtAxvdi tlio I teeth oi common .sense. 1£ a firmer cannot make eelto.,l ala cost per pound less than the mat'itet price or the last preceding season, he should not plant cotton, lx ho n plant i few selectacri ... - i rat will ! each produce a bale of cotton, at a cost of ' 4 cents a pound or le.ss. let him plant them and not another acre. He nerd not—ought I f . ot t o worry about what his Neighbor is going to do—what all the other farmers 'are going to do. Let such an individual i farmer stand up like Joshua of old, who ] Choose you tills daj ■' lom yo will serve; . . . but as for me and my house wo will servo the Cord. 1 ixet him resolve to cut down tho cost of malting his cotton I and no longer serve King Cotton as an ab .

Nature relies upon the growth and d . iy of vegetable matter to repair tho ravages of rnait niton mother earth. Os course vegetable sub stances differ in value :ts a fertilizer.

Cotton does not mix very readily, but It Is bent to take such precaution when seeking to develop something new. Bolls with six lobes or eompartments are not common, except on some varieties In which tho tendency to produce, many compartments has been en couraged by careful selection, as you pro pose to do. We have seen bolls with as many as ten compartments. We do not think i here is any advantage in having more than five. 2.

If you will use ;l sum 11 magnifying glass you may distinguish the aearus or mange in i'' "t in the .-enrf about ills shoulders and theroots ot' bis mane and tail.

Apply a little of this to th. affected parts Hep at in a week if n.ci" ary. Another remedy after wash ing befor- to om-lialf pound of sulphur md one ounce of vaseline and rub it in thoroughly.
