POINTS FROM PoPE's.
ERROR STAR:

ERROR STAR:
Spring has, indeed, come at last.
and the merry farmer is busily en-
gagged putting both corn and cot
ton seed in the ground but, as
usual, all the best land is put in
cotton. and as far as my observa-
ton goes the acreage in cor will
be quite as small as usual. Only
4 few small fields of wheat near
this point, aud some say that meat
hogs + scarce; a great many
have not procured sweet potatoes,
so presume thai crop will be small.
Now, you can give some idea
as to what our condition will be
next planting time-no wheat, no
corn, no potatoes, no money, but
with a nice little mortgage filed
with our merchants for supplies. !
hope it may be otherwise, but
must confess the chances are
against us, unless we change our
programme.
A good number Of our farmers
are having to plow up their corn
and plant over, owing TO the late
ness OF the spring. Some think
the fruit all killed. but | still think
we will have some peaches, though
they may not be very good.
Plums, apples and pears bid fan
to yield an average crop, | think,
Gardens that have had any atten.
ton are now looking well; blu.
cotton will cause them to be neg.
lected, and so | fear we will hav,
but few vegetables.
Ii | don't stop your readers vii
think | am a chronic grumbler
but / do desire TO see our peopl
independent, and il they woulI
raise their own corn, wheat, bacon
potatoes, and millet or hay, an.
then all the cotton they could. "
would prosper, and there woul
be happiness and contentmer
throughout the land.
