Everything is very quiet. Nothing
doiUg in cotton of any consequence.
Prices nominal, with but little offered.
Produce dull, very dull. The market
IL potatoes is glutted, and the price
WY down. Apples steady. The fol-
lowing article from the Cotton Record
meets our entire approval, and we
give il for the consideration of our
farmers.
The days of enormous plantations
end easy going farming came to an
euG when the emancipation of the he.
groes took place; up to that time plant
ers as q rule farmed en- large scale,
but not always on profitable basis.
Whether their crops were good or bad,
their hands had to be fed and cared
for, and expensive establishments
kept up. If nature favored them, all
went well, but come bad season, and
they felt the pinch fearfully.
The system was not economical
either the legion of slaves, and the
Oyerseers and their assistants scattered
here and there over large plantations
were u great expense, and the want of
personal supervision, and the system
OF leaving SO much to INSCRIPTIONS
mauagerS, often caused considerable
Shortcomings in the returns from what,
with better management, might have
been realized,
Therel Is still much to be accom-
piisbed, however, in the way of educa-
tins apr farmers upon the subject of
small farms being more profitable
than large ones. They are, as class,
slow to depart from old ways, and are
apt . continue the endeavor to wrest
crop rom large and nearly exhaust
eel tracts, instead of, with much less
labor and expense, realizing an equal,
ii not sJp5rior crop, by the careful and
attentive manipulation of smaller
fields.
Muoh has been done, sufficient any
WY tn prove the advantage of small
over large farms, as is attested by the
legiJng OF people, both v hite and col
oret, scattered about the cotton States,
who have their little holding and cul.
tiNate them carefully, cheaply aud
probably, making q comfortable liv-
ing for themselves and their families,
OF Incredibly small amounts of land.
1t is reasonable, too, the small propri-
etor can, in the first place, do a l.rge
amount OF the work himself, assisted
by hi5 family, he has, therefore, to
hire little or no help; he requires
fewer oxen or mules, and his land is,
as y rule, better manured than his
more pretentious Ieighbors can be
His .r0p will show marked superior
lily both in the yield per acre, and also
in quality, besides which he has made
it al q much lor er cost.
