The Home Circle is, in it's essenti-
ais, God-given instinct or matter
of growth and education. it is at the
foundation of all our civil polity, and
the family is at the base of the town !;
as the town is st the base of the state,
and SO long as the family relation is
kept pure and undefiled among any
people, so long as children honor
their parents, as parents bear in mind
their responsibility concerning those
whom they have brought into the
world, as the hearts of brothers and
sisters beat as one, so long will that
people possess shields and safe-g guards
against enemies and having homes
and altar. fires are worth fighting for.
There are few things more beautiful
to see than this family affection, the
solic.tude of the old for the young,
the reverence of the young for the
old, the GENTLE ties affiliation between
sister and sister, the noble loyalty of
brother for brother, the attention to
trifies that makes happiness for one
another, the deadning of strife and
destruction of envey, the mutual
aiding and uplifting. There must be
ties, eqnal to those of blood, in life
from the earliest remembrance about
the same hearth and at the same
mothers knee.

REDUCE, HOLD, DIVERSITY


4 If the harmony that prevailed here
among the delegates to the Convention
is just criterion Of the feeling pre-
vailing among the the hundreds Of
thousands of cotton farmers through
out the S12 cotton growing counties Of
the Southern States, it may be accept
ed as certain that the remedies de-
cided on to correct the evils resulting
from last years overproduction of
cotton will be generally applied.
Before adjournment, the Convention
took steps to organize the farmers in
every one of the 812 counties and in
every political subdivision of such
counties. These local organizations
are to select responsible men who will
see to it that the decisions of the Con-
vention are carried out everywhere
and particularly that the reduction of
acreage decided upon is made to the
full limit the resolutions call for.
The work of the Convention,
briefly summarized, shows that it has
been decided to reduce acreage 25 per
cent in 1905, to use 25 per cent less of
fertilizer and to refuse to sell the
balance of the present crop for less
than 10 cents at the ports, and to take
steps by local organizations to dis
courage the granting of advances or
financial assistance to any farmer who
refuses to reduce his acreage in &C.
cordance with the plan adopted.
The Convention declined to adopt
or indorse any scheme Of public ware
housing or to depart from the main
purpose for which the convention
was called. 1t declined to 20 on
record as opposed to futures, and in
stead of finding fault with the Gov
eminent crop reports, it cordially
approved the Governments effort,
and pledged the assistance of all
farmers to make the reports even
more perfect. This conservative and
sensible course was something Of
surprise, and certainly should prove
very gratifying to the heads the Gov
eminent bureaus having charge Of the
work of collatingJ cotton crop sta
tisbics.
While it is hardly to be expected
that the full programme of the Con-
vention will be carried out to the
letter everywhere, and by all cotton
planters. there is every reason to hope
that compliance with it will be suffi-
ciently general to bring about at least
the reduction of 25 per cent in acre
age. Whether or not all will hold
back the balance of their cotton until
10 cents at the ports can be secured is
quite different proposition. Many
may not be able to hold for that
price. At the same time the dlspo-
sition to hold back is very strong, and
it is safe to assume that every planter
will hold as long as he possibly can
and certainly until prices have i'm
proved sufficiently to show him
reasonable profit, whether the figure
be 10 cents or less.
If nothing more than a general
reduction of % per cent in acreage
is secured, it is pretty certain that
the Convention will not have met in
vain, as such cut in acreage, with
the smaller resultant crop, is sure to
make any surplus carried over val
liable and restore prices to normal
and profitable level Picayune.
