The low price of cotton has
greatly discouraged our farmers.
But when will prices he better 2
The yield of cotton is increasing an
nually at a much greater rate than
the demand. A decade ago the an
nual crop of the United states was
three million bales. In 1890 1t was
eight millions. 1t is quite certain
it will increase every year, because
new farms in the cOitln region are
being opened up. and the acreage is
being increased. The result is in
evitable. Prices will continue to
tumble and next winter we may
expect cotton to be lower than it
now Is. In Tennessee we cannot
afford to raise it for less than nine
or ten cents per pound. We cam
not compete with the Texas or Lou
isiana cotton planter. because he has
two months longer season than we.
The early and latter frosts frequent
ly ruin our prospects, while our
southern neighboIs are exempt from
such disasters. Besides, their
sMl is better suite for the fleecy
staple. These are stubborn facts,
which we would do well to consid-
er. We can raise grain, grasses,
potatoes, etc., proiitably, and yet
we pay ninety cents a bushel for
sweet potatoes and two dollars a
bushel for Irish potatoes. Why
not devote our efforts to raising
these instead of cotton? 1t is about
as easy and cheap to raise bushel
OF potatoes as it is TO raise a pound
OF cotton; and yet we get eight
cents per pound for the cotton and
ninety cents per bushel for sweet
potatoes Corn always brings a
good price here in winter. Peas
are invariably in great demand.
Why will not our farmers pay some
attention TO these instead of cotton !?
One thing we have noticed, anu it
is thls-the farmer who raises
grain. grasses, potatoes aud peas to
sell is the pros porous farmer, while
he who depends on cotton is always
behind and in debt.
