The Crop Lien An Effect, Not
A Cause.

Some of our correspondents have
fallen into the common mistake Of
attributing the failure in our farm
ing business to the crop linen law.
In this they err.
Short crops ars not: the result OF
any human laws. Such laws have no
control over the seasons can not
stop the drouth or cause the rainy
spell to hold up. And the unhappy
condition of our farming interests
are due to succession of short
crops and also to the system of crop
ping the planting of cotton to the
exclusion of cereals. 1t is demon
stration OF the fact that there is little
or no profit in buying bread and
raising cotton at and below s cent a
pound.
The lien law is not the cause. but
the effect. The present system made
the necessity for the law is why it
was enacted.
We can not we'll do without it, or
a substitute, unit! change is maze
also in the system of farming. La
borers and tenants can not work
without supplies. and supplies can
not be had without sureties in
some form-liens, Mortgages or
what not. When we fEd some
manner of farming which will give
the farmer something else to mort
gage beside his muscle, allow him
to save enough of his years produce
to sustain life and make another
crop, then there will be no neccess-
ity for advances and the crop lien
may 60.
With the present system of hand
to mouth farming, to do away with
the crop lien and to get no substitute
for it, is to break up thes great
majority of small farmers colored and
white. who must then cease farming
on their own account and hire them
selves out. Are we ready for this?
As We said at the outset let us
<irst remedy the defects Of the
present system Of farming, aise more
bread stuffs and less cotton, and give
more attention to hogs and stock
raising. tRemove the canse, and the
effect will go with it.
