Now, Mr. Editor, I want to have a
few words to say to the merchants and
land owners in regard to our present
labor. 1t is becoming of less account
every year. You can't get the negro
laborer to strike a lick in the field un-
til the first of March. Therefore. our
lands are growing up year by year and
becoming less valuable. The stave
mills and sawmills throughout the
county are injuring the farmer or
land owner to great extent. The
merchants furnish the negroes with
wagons, mules and feedstuffs on credit
and they are out hauling long after
they ought to be plowing. Then
their mules are in bad shape to go to
plowing. Consequently, they are be-
hind with their crop all summer; and
then again, they quit their crop before
it is laid-by and go to hauling, the
merchant furnishing him all the time
