Plant Less Cotton.

In bringing this subject again before
the minds of our planters, we feel that
we cannot add anything new to the
multiplied warnings which have been
spoken upon the suicidal policy of plant
ing cotton to the exclusion of the more
important productions of breadstuffs,
and of raising our own meat at home.
Year after year, despite the experience
ofrepeated disappointments in remuner-
ative prices for cotton, our farmers have
gone on Planting it; nay, instead of re-
dueing the acreage, they have increased
the area, until the year 1882 shows a
greater crop than has ever been liar
vested and put upon the market from
the Gulf States.
From reliable statistics, gathered by
the National Cotton Exchange, it is es-
timated that the American cotton crop
of 1882 will reach z $50, 900 bales, of 400
lbs. each, not counting weight of bag
ging and ties. Of this amount A ,7l2 ,43l
bales were placed upon the market up
to February Let. The tendency of prices
is downward all the time, and we haze
no hope of an improvement in quota
tions for the future, simply from the fact
that the supply is in excess Of the de-
mand. Europe consumed last year
$685. 900 bales; and aggregating the
crop of the world at 100000 bales, it
will be seen that this vast amount will
not be used up before another crop will
be made. 1t is safe to say that it costs
our farmers at least ten cents per pound
to raise cotton, because the majority of
them have to buy bread and meat at
enhanced prices to enable them to make
their cotton crops. Then who are the
losers . Are they not our planters? In
the face of these facts and figures, would
it not be better to plant more corn, rice,
peas, grain, and potatoes, and raise our
own meat, and reduce the cotton crop
to one half, than to continue as we have
been doing, planging deeper and deeper
in debt, and bringing grim starvation to
our doors9 We adime our agricultural
friends to try the experiment for few
years at any rate. Make your bread
and meat at home, and with cotton only
as surplus crop you may get better
prices for it, and at the same time be
sure of living at home.
