A CHANCE FOR FARMERS.

Our farmers should take advantage OF the
prospects of war and the independence Of
Cuba to make arrangements for an increase
Of crops, az well as the supplies of home.
raised meats. Even il there is no war, the
independence of Cuba will create very
ions.
The condition of affairs in Cuba is such
that Tecuperation In the rural regions will
be very slow. Never since the dawn of civ
: ilization has such awful desolation fallen on
an agricultural people as that which the
Spanlards have wrought in Cuba
Weyler's order Of concentration involved
the destruction of all the dwellings on the
farms, all the supplies, all the tools and all
the horses and cattle 1t involved the i'm
prisonment of all the farming population,
men, women and children, 10 the for
tilted towns, where they have been left to
shift Tor themselves. They are without food
and practically without clothes. The Span
iards have not raised finger to relieve the
sufferings Of these unfortunates. They have
been given over TO starvation on the plea
that if allowed to stay on their farms and
earn living part Of their supplies would
go TO feed the Cuban patriots.
Now, whether we have war, or their in
dependence is proclaimed by purchase OF
otherwise, these people must be fed. Indeed
the whole population of the island must be
fed from these shores while the island is
slowly recovering from the horrors of Span
ish oppression.
The entire South is the nearest market
and therefore the cheapest for the Cubsns
To boy In and for that reason we anticipate
a brisk and profitable demand for all the
surplus supplies that can be raised in the
South the present year. 1t is not too late
for our farmers to plant larger crops OF corn
and oats, potatoes, &c. Let US take time by
the forelock, and anticipate this coming in
creased demand.
