COST OF COTTON.
Captain Petty Figures It at Not Less
Than 10 Cents.

At the farmers mass meeting at this
place recently, 1t was stated that the
cost of cotton in the Piedmont was
about eight cents a pound. That was
an off-hand estimate. Some Of the
farmers say that it will cost IL to IA
cents. When the English spinners
were in this country last year one of
them said in pompous way that cot
ton could be made at profit and sold
at five cents. He perhaps could not
have been able to tell cotton from
"Jimson" weed. These men labor un-
der errors. The farmers who raise
small grain, corn, garden truck, a COW
or two and many other things consider
these as nothing. He who raises ten
bales Of cotton and $500 worth Of 9TH
er stuff puts all the expense on cotton.
Let the cost be calculated in a business
way and then a reasonable conclusion
may be reached. In the following
statement the rent Of ordinary land Is
put at IS an acre. The cotton is sup
posed ito third itself" Picking Is
placed at 40 cents, the price paid now.
A. young farmer who makes full hand
Is selected. A two-horse farm Is taken
as a basis for the estimate. Besides
the farmer he will have to hire an ex-
ira hand six months to assist him.
No account is taken Of horse power af-
ter the first Of August. The two-horse
farm is put at forty acres, which is
as much as can be we'll prepared and
thoroughly cultivated. The average
yield Of cotton last year in this state,
according to bulletin 95, national de-
partment of labor, was two and one
sixth acres to a 500-pound bale, which
is about 700 pounds of seed cotton to
the acre. In this estimate the yield will
be put at 900 pounds, which will be
made this year. The expense ac-
