If you are holding your cotton we YOU til

pine logs as follows; Cut logs 6 feet long and
place them feet apart after notching them as you

The logs should be large enough to raise your cotton Is
inches or 2 feet above the ground. Make deep ditch
all around the platform, to drain the water off, cover

al least ten feet from cotton SO as to prevent stock and

plus crop, made with labor that
might be otherwise lost, will it
not bring remunerative prices.
though it reached lower figures
on the market than it is possible
for it ever to go? Those who
will say that this is visionary may
be cited to the fact that our most
prosperous farmers are those who
make corn enough and to spare.
What the few have been doing,
the many can do. Try it, and no
more will the cry of overproduc-
ton and low prices be heard in
our south land. And more than
that, it would be a matter of sur
prise how quick an increase in
the value of land would respond
to it. And that would mean
to the farmers, money.
1t is strange, but how true,
that our farmers wait until they
are financially throttled before
they adopt measures for self
preservation. They knew full
we'll that the government was
approximating nearer and nearer
each year an accurate estimate
of the growing crop. The mark
ct is excited more or less by the
report from the area planted and
the farmers of the growing
plant. Later is the more excit-
ing estimate is made from the
| ginners report. And this is fol-
lowed by financial spasms. But
why run from the truth? We
don't, when the government at
an early date, report shortage,

s5}ow prices in order to meet the
requ rem snts of such a defic-
iency.
The general opinion in Lam
cashire is that plentiful supply
OF American cotton can be had
on a 1O-cent basis. Combina-
tons are being formed to hold
the price at this notch, if possi-
pie, and these combinations in
tend to operate through agents
sent specially to Louisiana and
an the cotton producing centers
OF the South. The troubles among
the cotton manufacturers of the
East are expected to aid in the
development of this scheme as
they are calculated to have a de-
pressing effect on the home
market in their relation to sun
ply and demand.
My candid opinion is that an
enormous amount of money can
oe saved to our planters by TAX
ing this matter up in time, and
Invoking ! the assistance of the
banks orithe national treasury
II such an arrangement can be
made, to enable the planters to

NThe erection Of new mills in

their consumption is likely to

subject and serves to emphasize

Washington, Jan. 18. The fol-
lowing report from United States
Consul Smythe at Tunstall, Eng
land, was given out today by the
Department Of Commerce and
Labor dated Dec. l6, 1904:
1T was my intention to cable
you today in reference to reports
that appeared in last nights
papers. concerning the condition
of the Egyptian cotton crop, with
relation to the position of our
cotton planters Of the South, but
| concluded mail dispatch
would accomplish my purpose
just as we'll. These reports are
very discouraging, inasmuch as
they foreshadow a shortage in
next years crop of the class Of
staples that come into competition
with American cotton. For this
reason | do not hesitate to say it
would be advisable to warn the
Southern planters against any
move on the part of Lancashire

We need and want the sympa-

of both races in the South who
are capable, and have the right

all problems growing out of our
new relations. There is a class
of Northern whites who come

They are hypocrites, singing one

The colored men of the North
