The Peoples Forum
The Short Crop.

Editor Constitution-Your effort IN protect
ing the farmers of the south in the price Of cot
ton is appreciated.
replies from small interior uncounted towns
that the bears not right In claiming a very
large stock on hand. These towns were count
ed. Afty-six of them for three states. viz,
Georgia. Alabama AMI South Carolina, and we
can reasonably conclude that the balance OF
the south Is in the same condition.
You will notice for these towns there is a
shortage of $500 TO compare with what was
on hand last year. and the amount to come in
for the balance Of the year Is Sc. $50, against
lO2,2I4 received last year after January lst.
If The Constitution would take up this work
on a still larger scale and find out what Is ac-
tually on hand in these small uncounted towns
the question wolld be solved.
IL tho business world would think who was
carrying this cotton In small towns (Which
are the banks) they would see that the small
town had small banks. then they would know
that these moneyed concerns would not carry
more than 10 to 20 per cent OF the total re-
ceipts of each town. To illustrate. suppose a
small town received ! o. 600 bales of cotton for
the season. and they were carrying 10 per
cent. which is 900 bales. at S35. you see they
would be carrying In cotton $4,000. The
small town with banks proportonately small
would not carry 20 per cent of the crop.
The cotton to come in from farmers is not

wbv Is the Count Uncertainp

Editor Constitutional is strange II the
amount Of cotton on hand cannot he obtain
cd at this season. There remains hut little
outside of warehouses after Christmas and
espectallv is this the case this season. as pick
ing has been over a month. Why should there
be- n difference Of opinion OF two to two and
one-half million.
If the commissioner OF each state or lead
ing daily send out blanks somewhat as fol
lows asking Information from each warehouse
town. or even from county site or agricul-
ttraI representatives OF every county. the
practical facts could be mad. This can't be OBJ
tained during picking time.
FOR instance. / can give exactly 10 the bale
answer TO all these questions except the number
of bales on plantati ons held in the county By
plarters. and Sould not miss that propA"4y
over 100 bales.
This knowledge would put at rest the CON
ntcting estimates that Europe ana wan street
