Call to Mind the Past.

I remember very well when young men
sought employment on farms at about
s72 per annum This included board and
washing Such young men would labor
hard six days per week. and fifty-tWo
weeks in the year with two or three hol-
idays at Christmas. Out of this $72 they
would save $50. In a few years they
would have enough money to buy small
farm. They did not make debts. They
did. not smoke. They owned no buggles.
They wore plain clothing. They saved
their money. They made character. They
had too much respect to compromise their
manhood, enough self control to keep UNI
der vicious appetites, acquired COM
potency for comfortable living. They
built up the country They added some
thing profitable to their race.
In this day of laziness, extravagance,
drunkenness and swagger, would it not
be we'll to reflect on the lives and con-
duct of our ancestors.
Let the young people remember that
this is an age cursed with a craze for
money and yet they do not save money.
1t is sought to crafty taste for hurtful
things. / am informed that it is common
for young men in some neighborhoods to
get drunk. / do not remember | ever
saw a young man drunk until | was
grown.
It would afford great pleasure to see
young men sober, Industrious truthful,
honest, frugal and thrifty, living on farms
and improving Them producing enough
breadstuffs on their farms at home to
support the farms, having corn, flour or
wheat, pork or bacon &c. enough to sell
some. This would give an excellent base
for profitable operations on the farm
Farming is business that will return
some profit to the man that manages his
business according to bible or wise prin-
ciples.
If our young men will stick down to
their farms, make enough at home to
keep from spending their money for pro-
vicious, and put the balance of theil
labor in crops that bring the most money
then farming will be profitable bust
ness.
This would be return to the old times
when farmers were quite free from debt
as a rule, and their barnes and smoke
houses teemed with plenty, and in their
pockets was some cash.

A 100000 BALE COTTON CROP.
Ashley Horne and Son Estimate North Caro-
lima Crop at 100000.

To the Editor: Concerning cotton the
following schedule of receipts for this
town may be interesting:
From Sept. 1, 1900 to Sept. /, 1901, S.051
bales.
From Sept. /, 1900 to November 18th,
1900, 1882
From Sept. 1, 1901 to Nov IS, 1901, g.
obs.
From this can be seen that our receipts
are about one half what they were last
year, but it is doubtful whether or not
they will continue at this rate through
out the season as the heaviest of the crop
movement is now being concluded
On November 18th we had ginned 239
bales, against 465 for the corresponding
period last year. This also shows that
the crop in this territory is about so pei
cent. of what it was last year up to this
time. Judging from the looks of the
fields, and from what our customers say
as to the balance behind, it looks like
from now on the same proportion will not
hold good The balance of the ginning to
be done here could be completed in ten
days if the farmers would bring it to the
ginnery. Johnston county will not make
over SO per cent. of what it did last year
and the crop in this vicinity is not over
40 per cent. of last years crop Our
estimate for the crop for this State is
100000 bales, and from the information we
have, which we have studied very care
fully, we cannot possibly estimate the
present crop at over 10,250 900 bales.
There is strong bear element against
the market, but unless the government
estimates the crop at ove~ 10,500 90 bales
we think the market should have a good
advance. We believe, however, if the
Government should give an estimate oil
1o,75O,0o0 to II 100000 bales, that the mar
ket will suffer very severe decline.
Yours respectfully.
