when our state will produce
twice and thrice the amount

The Horticultural Society

SO many poor farmers at the

At this point in his address
he brought in some of the 'es
tablished customs of the
South and compared them
with those Of New England.
He said it was the exception
rather than the rule to find
a farm in the South that did
not employ from one to three
servants about the house,
with as-many more about the
farm. Yet in the North,
with a farm Of the same size,
it is the exception to find any
servants at all. He brought
out these details very forcibly
and urged the farmer to give
them more attention and in
crease his income. This
change from the previous gen

Directly after the war cotton
brought an enormous price
