better. as we go to press, and this

The apparent plans OF farmers to
plant big acreage Of cotton and TO
use more guano viii not only jeopar-
die the price of cotton next lall but
gives the bears a lever with which
to pull down tne price now. DON'T

to a large cotton acreage in North
Carolina, despite all that has been
said and done to the contrary. The
price will be governed by the yield.
If cotton is cheap next fall, it will be
the farmers own fault.
