Reduce the Acreage.

Already NC hear the cry of a reduction of the acreage to be put in cotton, this wear. Does this rneau that the farmers pro. pose to diversity their farming and grow more corn, oats and hay. or do they contemplate less labor, by having fewer acres of anything to work? If the latter the country will probably be in no better condition than at present; but If the idea Is to raise more at home, to live on, then, unquestionably, q bright CT day for the farmer will dawn. When the farmers stop going to town for their cora. meat, hay. and. even. vegetables, there IS q reasonable prospect for prosperi ty in the country.
 his IS q good cotton country and every farmer should raise this staple te a certain extent; but he should not make it his ex- elusive crop. He should endeav- or to raise of other crops all that he needs to consume on his own tarm, and then make all the cotton he can, for cotton is about the only thing which the farmer grows that he can count on getting a ready sale for Live at home and board a. the same house." should he the farmers motto.
