REDUCING THE COTTON ACREAGE


The farmers in Mecklenburg
county who belong to the Alliance
have agreed now to plant but ten
acres of cotton each. The low
price makes it improbable to raise
cotton. The tendency is towards
making hog and hominy first, and
then allowing cotton and tobacco to
be raised as the money crops.
This is tendency that will con-
tribute to the independence of far
mers, but we doubt if i. is feasible
20 limit the cultivation to the ten
acres. Take the case Of farmer
who has the equipment to make
fifty or a hundred acres in cotton.
That represents all his capital, and
as it cannot be sold at satisfactory
prices, he cannot at once afford to
reduce his acreage to ten. With him
the reduction must be by degrees.
The farmers Of Wilson, Nash, Pitt,
and some portions of Edgecombe and
Wayne have for two or three years
|
gradually reduced the number Of
acres planted in cotton, and in
creased the acreage in tobacco an6
grasses. The result has proved
profitable.
There is no doubt in our min(
that the action of the Mecklenburs
Alliance is along the right line
Great cotton plantations do not pa,
and the farmers are turning t,
grasses, tobacco, cereals, truck witt
satisfactory results. A crop of al
cotton is ruinous with the presen
prices.

tive and intolerant'' and seek to
control mems judgment and to al
low no latitude, the future of the AL
lance will be filled with failures.
The Alliance has wrought great
good in the South particularly.
Its power for good is tre-
mendous, and it will 60 on
multiplying in numbers and multi
plying its good influences if its
leaders are not ssintolerant and
proscriptive.' If they try to pro-
scribe all men who differ with them,
it needs no prophet to predict the
result. Prescription and intoler.
ance will be the twin slayers Of the
order.
The success of the Democratic
party and the Alliance are baseC
upon the same foundation, and the
weapons that will bring death t.
the one will bring destruction to th'
other. Intolerance and proscrip

THE TOB eco BELT.

The tobacco belt is every day en-

brace Granville, Durham, Person
and Caswell, and now it runs from
Haywood to Pitt. We publish a
letter from Pitt county to-day show
ing the extent that the farmers OF
that county are engaging in tobacco
culture.
1t is interesting reading anc
shows that farmers are wide-awake
like other people, and are deter
mined to raise the crops that pay

WHAT PRESCRIPTION AND INTOL
FRANCE WlLLOO.

Prescription and intolerance will
destroy the best institution in the
world. The church itself would be-
come weak and powerless if it pur-
sued course of prescription that
would drive away all independence
Of thought. Some of the Alliance
leaders say that there will be no
Third party unless the leaders of
the Democratic party are proscrip-
tive and intolerant. They are right
in saying that nothing else would
justify the Alliancemen in the South
in leaving the Democratic party.
Prescription and intolerance will
destroy any organization. If the
Democratic leaders should show
intolerance of honest difference
Of opinion, they would deserve te
die, or they would work fatal injury
to the cause Of Democracy. We d.
not believe they will be so foolish
On the other hand, the success an6
life Of the Alliance also deper Is alb
solutely upon allowing honest diff
ference of opinion among its mem
bers. If the leaders are "proscrip

WHIPPING THE DEVIL AROUND
THE STUMP,

Two sub-oficers, Messrs. CRoUNsE

practice nepotism in this admins
tration by whipping the devil around

fear HARRISON that they seek to
give their kin Office by indirection.
If they followed his example,
they would fagrantly run
into the face of public
sentiment and make the ap-
pointments directly. But there
is, happily, one officer in the admin
istration who puts the veto on nepo.

figures to make a good financial
showing for the administration, the

TRYING TO KILL Mr.. BLAINE.

Mr.. BLAINE may not die, but it
will not be the fault of the New
York World. It has bounded him
down, so to speak, and sought to
make him believe that his death was
inevitable. Its latest contribution
to this end is the publication of six
columns Of opinions from medical
experts in Europe who have never
seen Mr.. BLAINE, and who know
nothing of his condition and con-
stitution. They agree that if
he has the symptoms ascribed to
him, he cannot recover. This must
be pleasant to Mr.. BLA1NE's friends.
There is no doubt about the fact
that the condition of the mind has
a large influence upon the physical
being. Such publications, if seen
by him, must have depressing ef-
feet upon Mr.. BLAINE. A man
cannot shake off such depression,
however great a control he may
have over his will. There are
cases on record where men
have died from the effects of fright
produced by making them think
they were very i'll. It is cruel and
inhuman.
The press of the country has
treated Mr.. BLAINE's sickness in sc
ghoulish way SO as to cause deserved
loss of respect. But it remained
for the World to seek to kill him b,
expert testimony. It is not decen
for newspaper to descend to sucl
things and it isn't reputable fol
physicians to give their opinions il
such cases.

Smut on Corn.

Smut ON the corn originates in light
spores that are carried about in the at
mosphere. 1t is said to enter the stem
when the plant is young. and through
out its whole growth the fungus is grow.
ing within it, but produces but little sp-
parent effect until about the time Of
caring. The smut forms oftenest on the
ear, but is also found on other parts Of
the stalk. Corn seems to be the only
crop in which smut appears long enough
before maturity to admit of any treat
ment. The smut should be cut out as
soon as the swelling is observed and be-
fore any Of the spores have burst
through. At the time of harvesting all
smutty ears and stalks that have been
overlooked should be kept separate and
destroyed. and not be fed to stock to
perpetuate the disease. The spores ad-
herring to seed corn may be destroyed by
soaking few minutes in q solution Of
blue vitriol, but this will not protect
against smut spores in the manure or
nnutty stalks left in the field.

Can mutton be more cheapiy produced
than beef? As bearing upon this subject
Stewart calls attention to the fact that
the sheep is source of double income
meat and wool. He refers, too. to the
experiments of Sir j. B. Lawes in refer
eHce to the percentage Of food utilized or
stored up by different animals, and these
experiments presented the sheep in a
very favorable light. OF the dry food
consumed he found that sheep stored up
increased weight 10 per cent, while cat
tie only laid up in increased weight 8 per
cent. --thst is, eight and one-haf pounds
Of dry food increased the live weight OF
cattle.
SO that. relying upon these expert
ments, sheep must be considered as ex-
cellent utilizers of food, as producing as
many pounds of mutton, besides the
wool, from given quantity Of food, as
can be produced Of beef; and as the
best mutton brings as high price as the
beef, it would appear on this basis the
sheep would give the fleece as extra
profit over cattle. If this is not too ia
vorable view, the sheep on suitable
lands must DO considered among the
most profitable of farm stock. 1t is true
the dairy cow brings her profitable flow
Of milk to Offset that of wool; but the
dairy COW does not lay on flesh while
producing milk, as does the sheep while
producing wool. A fleece Of five pounds
Of wool grown in q year requires only
. daily growth Of one-ffth of an ounce,
which can take but small portion OF
food to produce. The mineral matter
taken from the soil by the fleece is only
1.e ounces rsr year, and If six hah NUT
ton sheep represent COW, the whole
mineral constituents taken by the six
deeces would only be 9.6 ounces, and
about 10 pounds Of nitrogen. while the
ordinary COW. yielding 1000 pounds OF
milk, would take twenty-six pounds OF
mineral matter or ash and twenty-five
Of nitrogen, or forty -threetimes as much
mineral matter and thirteen times as
much nitrogen as the feeces Of the sheep.
