NO INCREASE IN ACREAGE.
A. Small Cotton Crop Bringing More
Money Than the Larger One

Cotton receipts in Raleigh thus far III
January have been So bales, as against
LOCI bales for a corresponding period
last year The price for middling cotton
is now ~ cents. At this time last year
it was 61a cents. On the basis of 400
pound bale, the $50 bales sold this Janua-
ry brought $4,000 more to the farmer
than did the LOCI bales sold here last
January.
Could there be any stronger argument
presented to show the foolishness of
planting a large cotton crop to the neg
lect OF food crops and other products:
But it now seems as if the farmers
have about learned this lesson. Those
who have been interviewed on the streets
here, as a rule say that there will be
little or no increase in the cotton acreage
over last year.
I'VE have learned" said one, chat
first of all we must make enough to feed
ourselves and Our stock and then have
little to spare. The farmer who does
this is without exception prosperous AMI
respected by all the people of his com
munity. After that is done all the other
crop that can be tended should be put il
cotton or tobacco or some other money
crop. Let the farmer do this instead OF
trying to rely entirely ON a money croI
and buy all his provisions, and the old
time prosperity of the South will re-
turn"

thine business" with the farmers Of this
county said yesterday:
''There will be little increase in the
cotton acreage in this section. Many OF
the farmers have learned better Others
will be deferred from it by the increased
price of fertilizer. The advance in fer
