insidiOus approach Of this very undesirable
scheme. this money absOrDer. 1t is to be
hoped that enough Of sensible men cannot
be put in congress to enact such law
provided. it would be constitutional after
enactment. We see no money coming into
circulation by this scheme, only a horde Of
people to be paid for what we do not need.
Now for q plan that will put money in
circulation. In the first place our farmers
should find just how money could be put in
circulation, which can be done by i'm browns
their methods of farming. Raise all their
meat and corn at home. and as much of
their -four as possible. Practice a system
Of strict economy. Keep out of debt. raise
less cotton, but more Of everything else
that can be raised III our climate TO live
upon and sell the surplus, and be sure to be
able to sell one-half Of your cotton crop for
cash every year. mean for cash that you
do not owe This if practiced for one or
two years would produce money in great
abundance. There is no scarcity of money
al all. If you have anything 20 sell TO pur-
chase II, that will certainly sell for money.
