IL is thought by many that the
high price of this year will cause far
mers in thier planting next spring to
abridge their corn planting and in
crease the cotton acreage, in which
event the rulnous mortgage system
will be revived and plantation stock
and equipment will be seen forced
upon the market by the sheriff's levee
and under his hammer, and state OF
starvation as it was in the seventies
will be our condition again. No
southern farmer can ever hope to
make Ileadway as long as he keeps his
