A VOICE FOR COTTON MILLS.

To the Age-Herald:
 l see much said in the papers in regard to reducing the acreage of cotton ip order to raise the price of the article. II every planter would reduce one-third to one half of his usual crop this might have the desired effect. But there is nothing com pulsory, and each and every planter of cot ton is left free to act for himself, and from a close observation of cotton planting Tor fifty years I have yet to find q single in- stance where a planter reduced his acreage because his neighbor thought proper to do so with his. On the contrary, when the one reduced his crop the other, as gen. eral thing, increased his, hoping to be benefited by the falling of Of his friends crop. This Is human nature, and will hold good in counties as well as states. Suppose that planters generally agree and carry out in good faith reduction Of Do per cent and disastrous crop should occur, what would be the result, even though the value of the product be enhanced lew cents per pound? The price has nothing to do with the growth and maturity of the plant. Its main dependence is on the sea- sons, and short acreage is just -as liable to unfavorabie weather as large pa1tng {aTs ,hs dnd cron a of case sa pep qf cent decrease in acreage the damage could not be repaired in the next two years. When was in Texas in July the question was be- ing discussed in the papers whether or not Texas could raise cotton at cents per pound, and many believed that money could be made at that figure, and it Is not believed that the planters of that state will avail of the proposition 10 reduce the acre. aye Of their cotton lands. l haven't con- ferred with them on this point; but not having seen the names of Texas planters in attendance at any of the cotton planters conventions, infer that they will continue in their efforts to raise cotton for all the world; and the only plan to make success ofrestricting the acreage is for every man who makes bale of cotton to plant fer 8 half bale only aud make full crop at that.
 The best plan have. yet seen for the ben eft of the cotton planters was offered by Governor Stone at Jackson, Miss. Estab- lish cotton mills and cotton congresses at every available point in the cotton regions, and thus afford the planter home market as well as an opportunity to ship his own cotton to foreign markets from his depot, if he chooses, and draw money on the same without the intervention of commission or middle men, as is being done all over the state in Texas, and thus make great say- ing to those who raise the cotton.

At first the change for the better was very gradual; the pains seemed to be less frequent and the swell ing in5some of the joints subsided after using about one bottle. Then improve ment was more rapid and one night she surprised us greatly by telling us that we need not prop her up in bed as we had one for several months, and next night she surprised us still more by rolling over across the bed. From that time on
