The Cotton Acreage.

How about the cotton acreage,
farmers? We know you are advised
so much that you pay little or no at.
tention to the advice that is volun-
teered to you, but still we deem ii
our duty to point out certain facts
to you so as you will be informed OF
the situation. A bumper crop OF
cotton this year means low prices
next Fall. There is no market for
goods. The mills cannot sell their
products and in consequence they
have been compelled to curtail pro-
duction. A big crop this year
means six cents for cotton next Fall.
A $4,000, 900 bale crop at six cents
would be worth only $500, 900,
while a 100000 bale crop at ten
cents would be worth S500.O0O.000.
In the face of these facts, farmers,
don't you think it would be part
of wisdom to reduce the cottc..
acreage and increase the food crop?
