80 plant or not to plant much cotton is,
just now, the important question among
Southern farmers. An exchange states
an economic fact wher it says that If the
tempted by the increased prices
resulting from the small crop of 1892, put
Ina 10, ,0o0, 900 bale crop this spring they
win run the price down to or s cents a
pound by next fall. 1t is impossible to
control the output Of wheat and cotton by
hnat and combination among the plan
ters, as is done in the manufacturing in
dnstries. But the prudent farmer in the
cotton country will take good caro- to
plant enough grain and miscellaneous
crops and raise enough live stock to sup
plyat least his own wants, and then plant
Hhatever cotton he can without going
much into debt for it. This is the only
&pIAn Of farm economy that will ever bring
cer.ain thrift and prosperity to the South
sern farmers.

A writer in Caautauqasa says that the
average limit of sustained attention in an
audience is about twenty minutes, and
that it is very difficult for speaker to
interest his hearers thirty minutes. It
was not 80 in the old days when we ha1
great orators, and it is not so now when
an eloquent speaker has message to
deliver. But, for the average talker,
twenty minutes is long enough.
