The New Orleans Cotton EXCHANGE
Simply Furnishes Facts.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 25.-In re-
ference to the circular letter of Hon.
Hector Lane, commissioners of agricul-
ture for the State of Alabama, in re-
latlon to the causes of the depression
OF cotton. the reporter of the Southern
Associated Press interviewed Presi-
emit Labouisse and Secretary Hester.
of the New Orleans Cotton Exchange,
President Labouisse said that, ON so
far as the New Orleans Cotton Ex-
change Is concerned Commissioner
Lane Is certainly in error that the
New Orleans Cotton Exchange had
never at this season or in any past
season put forth an estimate of any
Kind relating to the cotton crop that
the business of the exchange was to
obtain information of the facts after
they had occurred, and not to make
forecasts or estimates Of any kind
that the New Orleans Cotton Exchange
had nothing to do with, nor does it In
any manner aid or countenance the
making Of either private or official
estimates on the probbale production
OF cotton; therefore, the statement
that tho principal fight in the v
tion called by Mr.. Lane would be on
the false estimates sem out by the cot
ton exchanges and cities could not in
any way refer to the Cotton Exchange
of New Orleans" MIR. Hester fully
concurred in this statement.

WILL FARMERS CoMBINEp

The Salvation of Cotton Planters De-
ponds on Their Independence of
Northern Spectators and Combina.
Ions.
To the Thinking Farmers of the
South
For the past two years I have made
cotton commissions my business and
daily have | Witnessed the downward
tendency OF your product. If you will
thlnk Tor Il moment, you will realize
the Tact that though you are the pro-
ducers Of this country and should be
the most independent, yet you are the
o dependent people of America.
Why? Because there are combinations
on nearly every article you use. The
manufacturers Of the North combine
on everything and say what it shall
bring, while you sell your products for.
whatever they are willing to paw YOU.
why cannot you protect your cotton
in the same way?
L should like, if it meets your ap-
proval, to organize a trust company
called tho Southern Farmers Trust
Company, for the purpose Of protecting
your products from the depressing in
fucnces OF spectators, spinners and
capitalists, and provide a means by
which you can name the price for your
products, instead of having the price
dictated to you, as is now the case. I
feel satisfied this can be done by form
ing II trust which would be able to
handle most of the cotton O grow.
Let the capital stock be $50, 600, 800 to
100000, 900, subscribed entirely by the
OF the South and divided into
as many shares as may be necessary
and small enough for every cotton
planter to subscribe. Let each farmer
take stock to his utmost capacity and
support the trust in every possible way.
In case you receive 10 cents for your
cotton, instead of 3 cents which YOU are
now receiving, you save on a crop of
5000, 600 bales about 5000, 600, 600, at
least twice as much as the caDital
STOCK OF the trust company. In case
spectators should become frightened
even at the mention of the trust and
the price of cotton, SO much
the better for you, but very likely thew
would attempt at first to bluff you.
L think it is now time to act. What
benefits the farmer or laborer unoues-
tlonably benefits all classes. If such a
PianshOuld meet your approval, | would
DC more than glad to meet u rcpresen-
tatlve cotton grower from each State
or Alliance, either in New York or in
some Southern city, to see if something
cannot be done to bring about some
Denoht to the South. Something must
be done or your lands will not DC worth
c~ultlvating.
Very respectfully,

KEEPING SWEET POTATO VINE,

KEEPING SWEET POTATO VINEs.-A
writer in the Texas Farm and Ranch
gives the following directions for keep
Ing sweet potato vines through winter,
to be used In early spring for seed !:
Cut the vines close to the hill ; take a
knife and clip off leaves and leaf steams
close to the vine, and if vines be longer
than o u feet, cut them in two or
more pieces, for convenience. Select
a place we'll drained. Raise "a little
mound the size you wish your hill,
about eight inches high in the middle,
sloping to edge. Now put down q
layer Of vines, two inches deep; v
with fine earth, and so continue a layer
OF vines, atternated with fine earth
until you form a cone shaped hill.
Coverth with corn stalks, or nything
to keep dry and keep from freezing.
Vines are much easier to keep than
potatoes, and in January or February
you will have nice vines to plant, much
earlier than sets, and they make the
incest and smOothest potatoes. AS
vineloss yams are very scarce, very
much more potato seed can be saved
by this method. and at the Same time
q here tofo"e useless part of plant uti-
NZed. l have gardened several years
and never failed to save potato vines,
while at h same time / have had all
my potatoes to rot.

PASSING OF THE CoMPAss.-The
compass may disappear from the sea,
says the Philadelphia Record. The
little needle, by the aid of which in
trepld marines have for centuries
chartered the vast ocean develop
ed a sudden fckleness to the pole
as soon \as the compass was placed
aboard the iron and steel ships of this
age. So drastic have been the needles
deviations that, without frequent
comparison with some known standard,
the helmsman would have been afraid
to trust the instrument as d nautical
guide over the trackless waters. For
the first time in the history of naviga-
tion an appliance has been invented
which seems to be absolutely accurate
and trustworthy in the determination
of the course of ships at sea. Lieuten-
ant w. Ell. Reecher, of the United States
navy, appears to have achieved this
triumph in his delicate and beautiful
solarometer, the telescope of which is

of the steamer Weimer will decide the
