MIR. HELMS In answer to sun
dry enquiries, permit me to say, /
found the financial condition of
North Georgia better than it has
been for the past six years. Here
tofore, but little else than corn and
wheat has been cultivated in that
section. A few years since, an ex-
pertinent was made in cultivating
cotton, and it was found by the use
of small quantity of guano, cotton
could be grown cheaper than in any
other section of the State, conse-
quently, the past year compara-
lively large crop of cotton was grown,
and since a surplus.of provision was
also produced, the money for which
the cotton sold. remained at home.
The financial condition of Middle
Georgia, was not so satisfactory.
and yet, is not so bad as is repre-
sented abroad. A very large crop
OF cotton was grown but the price
being twenty per cent. less than for
several years past. but little if any
margin for profit was left the
planters, and as but little corn. and
no meat was raised in that section.
the money necessary to purchase
these necessaries the present year,
will be larger than usual, which must
produce a scarcity.
In Southern and Southwest Geor-
gia and Southeastern Alabama. not
over half a cotton crop was produced.
The w weather in the spring. the
army worm in the summer, and the
storm in the autumn, destroyed full
one-half OF what was planted, and
almost universal bankruptcy is the
consequence.
One serious evil in all the cotton
growing region is, the planters op-
crate too much on credit, and pay
too high a premium for time. They
had better borrow money at q per
cent. per month, and pay cash for
their pnrchases-this premium for
time consumes all the profits of their
labor. j. "A. G.
