THE TIMES IL note what Mr.. Al
exander says in your lssuo Of the goth
inst, In regard to the cotton seed oil
mills, aud believe he is correct In his
statement that the price Of cotton seed
Is governed by the supply and de-
msnd, the same as all the other pro-
ducts of the country.
This being the fact, and the prices
OF seed so low, would it not be best
for all planters who are able to do so
to put the seed back on the land, or
one half OF them at least. There are
places on every plantation, even In
this rich a1luvial soil that would in-
crease its yield 25 or 80 per cent In
anything that may be planted on II by
The application of one ton of seed to
the acre. In my opinion cotton seed
at Sc per ton Is cheaper than any Of
the commercial fertilizers now In use.
Make q compost heap near the horse
lot by filing in rail pens with alternate
layers of cotton seed and scraplngs
from the lot, and IN one year 1t will be
ready for use, aud If properly applied
In the bills of Irish potatoes or corn
the yield will be very large.
Very respectfully,
w. w. RIFE.

"Iou Are Right, Captain"

We judge by the following that the
Delta Advance is of the opinion that
christianity, like charity, should begin
at home.
Capt. A. A. Sharp, of the Y.& NV.
Railroad, says; "What the Dslta needs
is common want in every other sect
ion of the country, and that is, the re-
ligion of Jesus Christ properly taught
You are right, Captain, aud VIC would
suggest that you resolve yourself into
q committee Of one aud do little mis-
sionary work IN the head Office Of the
company you represent. Teach your
superiors that the "religion of Jesus
Christi does not discriminate against
individuals or towns; also, teach
them the golden rule, ado unto
others as you would have them to do
unto you" Then perhaps the Delta
will be given an equitable freight
rate,

The True Remedy.

In Georgia the planters are concert
Ing to withhold shipments of cot
ton until the price advances. II IL
doubtful whether the proposition IL
feasible Or rot. To our optics 1t
looks as though low prices bad
come TO stay. But there is no
doubt but that the following extracts
present the true remedy for cheap cot
ton seed; whether or not the low
price be produced by q combine, or
the law Of supply and demand:
II the farmer would show a little
spirit aud resolution, and determine to
hold indefinitely, or to feed to their
land or stock their seed products un-
less offered remunerstive price, we
would soon sec changed condition OF
sffairs-Aberdeen Examiner.
The mills have made a combination
against the planter. They are taking
advantage OF his necessities. The
price OF oil does not require 1t, and
yet weekly reduction In value Il
made. We advise every farmer aud
planter who can possibly do SO to hold
his seed, even at the cost Of groal
temptation aud Inconvenience. Al
six dollars ton they are the chespes
fertilizer in the world. Use part Of
the supply for that purpose. DecliuS
to deliver the others until the price ad
vanccs.-Bolivsr Democrat.

EDITOR GREENvILLE TINES :-Ihav
just been looking over account sales of
two bales Of cotton sold in Greenville
last week at | per pound aud find
the net proceeds to amount to S4S.00
and have been trying to figure out
WHY those fellows ON the outside, |
mean outside Of the cotton patch,
can't come down little in their
charges In proportion to the cut on
the inside. The cotton pickers have
been scaled down from soc to 75c per
hundred on basis of I0c per pound
for cotton to Soc and 40o per hundred;
the glnners have come down from 50c
per hundred to SOC and 40c, but the
insurance on gin houses remains Z 1-2
per cent, the railroads stand pat on
freights, the cotton brokers demand
the same old thing 1-2 commission,
and we are cheated just as bad In
town weights. Those two bales of cot
ton shrunk up twenty-five pounds
going twenty-five miles to the CON-
press, although they were weighed &C.
curately In the gin house on tested
scales. If there Is any way out Of the
wilderness, the planter hasn't yet dis
covered II, the mortgage sings the
same old tune, 10 1-2 interest and all
those who handle cotton are solid,
they get as much as ever. No one
suffers but the producer, and he is
just between the d. and the deep
sea, or HI and the fireworks. Now
the gist Of this communication is can't
the other fellows come down peg,
and II not why not?
