People are about through gathering.
Cotton turned out better than was ex-

few have made enough corn and as a
consequence the meat crop will be short
The white people have gathered their>own
crops and finished before the negroes.
We can do things when we have them to
do. 1t is noticeable fact that the ne
groes who are willing to work for the
white people when they are not busy at
home, are the first to finish gathering,
and nearly all of them are paying their
accounts, while those who loaf rather
than work for white people for reasonable
pay, are the last to finish gathering their
crops, are making less, going into debt
deeper, and coming out behind. We can
get along and do our own work if we raise
plenty of corn, molasses, peas, potatoes,
etc. While labor is scarce we can learn a
very valuable lesson-if we only Will-to
depend on ourselves and be independent.
