Prof. Ferris, of the Mcneil expert
ment station, has issued a bulletin that
is Of interest to the farmers in the
piney woods section Of the State. He
claims that the lands there are very
susceptible to good cultivation and
scientific fertilization and that they
can be built up to produce just as large
crops and as good money on the invest
ment as any other land in the State,
save perhaps, the delta Prof. Ferris
warns the farmers against the use of
too much potash fertilizer. Clarion

Exit Prosperity.

Our exports are increasing at a
great rate, while our imports are pro-
portionately decreasing. Yet we are
in the midst of the worst panic the
country has experienced since 1873,
when spurious Republican prosperity
collapsed by reason of its inherent rot
tenness. Republicans are crying for
imitation, for credit currency" for
asset currency" for "shinplaster cur
rency," for the deposit of government
money in banks. But all these would
only make matters worse. The gold
standard is seriously threatened. Gold
and currency have been at a large
premium, specie payments have virtu-
ally been suspended. Practically, the
government and the banks have be-
come bankrupt. Thousands of workmen
have been thrown out of employment.
There is no such thing as real conf
dence in business or politics. And this
is the end of Republican prosperity"
which has ever been a mere fake, eX-
cept to the few. Quackery is always
the worst possible treatment. Import
ant f%inanciers like Jacob H. Schiff
realize this, and warn their friends of
the dreadful times ahead. Schiff, who
is a Jewish philanthropist, and the
head of the great international bank
ing firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., made a
speech recently in which he said:
There can be little doubt that the
coming winter is going to bring great
disaster to many of those ear us.
many of respectable and honest ap-
peaSance, who have always managed
to support themselves, but who have
lowered on the border line between
support and non-support, who can lay
nothing aside because their means do
not allow, for all their earnings are
necessary to show a dignified and re-
spectacle front to the world"
Schiff is not a calamity bowler. He
is not a politician. He was talking to
his own people, and Urging them to
