Every man to his trade" is an
old adage and Is familiar to nearly
all OF AS. It is brief in its wording
but conveys great deal in it's mean
ing. It il merely a terse way Of
saying that a man who makes a spe-
cialty Of any one thing knows more
about, and is more proficient In his
particular speciality than any one
else could be. II Is for this reason
that we all seek a specialist when
we have any serious physical all

old time activity in the cotton !
trade. Jobbers will place their
orders ahead to enable them to
supply their trade and the
mills will contract in advance
for supplies of cotton and the
market will advance much
faster than it has declined. The
result will be that you will
market a crop of II. 100000 at
an average of at least sos per
bale, or a total of about $3.50,
600, coo. If the weather con-
ditions should be unfavorablc
for the growing crop and if it
/ should turn out a million less

bring a total of nearly $500,

pose that you plant the same
acreage as last Year and with
favorable weather we would
likely make anyway 5000, 900,
possibly more. What would
the price be under the present
trade conditions? Not over an
average Of eight cents per

that it averaged $4,000 per bale

REDUCE COTTON ACREAGE.

President Taylor, of the Naiieaal
GiRRers' association, Tells How
to Restore Confidence by Re-
ductRG CottORAcrease-Not too
Late 70 Plant Otker Crops. or
Better TO Let Land Lie Idle Than
10 Plant in Cotton at a Loss.
To the Cotton Planters of the
South:
Cotton to-day reached the
lowest point since January /,
1903, except from Novem Der to
May of the big crop year of
19O4-5, when it sold two cents
per pound lower than this.
What has caused this decline
of three cents per pound in
spite of the fact that the cot
ton crop of the world is about
100000 short Of last year S
crsp? The only answer that I
can find is LACK of Conf
dence." The retailer is not
, buying except as he needs the
goods, the jobber is doing the
same, consequently the mills
have no orders ahead, while
last year, and for several years
past, they have had orders
booked from three to six months
in advance.
/ What causes this lack ofcen
fdence? They are afraid VIZ
will raise a bumper crop o1
cotton again this year, Why
are they afraid of a large crop,
| They look at the past. II

The next year, 1905-6, we had

they failed to find all the hidden

l was talking yesterday with
one of our neighbors, Mr.. Hall,
who has just returned from a
visit to his brothers in his native
State IVA. and told me of seeing
on his brothers farm, a drove OF
500 sheep and lambs. This made
me think of old times, when upon
nearly every farm flock of these
pretty, gentle animals were seen
though not in such a large num-
Der as the Virginia gentleman
owns. I told Mr.. Hall l wanted
some sheep. I used to be so fono
of them, and delighted to feec
and herd the gentle creatures
and see the frisky, playful little
lambs. Oft times when a little
girl, I have gone in search of 6
lost lamb, when the mother
would come home in the after
noon pleading so piteously with
beseeching look in her meeE
eyes, as though appealing fol
human aid and sympathy,
1 could but respond to her plea
and taking with me some of th'
little darkies would make for the

Bisbee daily review., 1908-10-29

speaking of the Democratic candidates for congress and the Democratic can
 didates for the legislature, the Review can appeal to Democrats to vote for these candidates on political grounds.
 Mark Smith, candidate for delegate to congress; Hon. Ben Goodrich, candi- date for the council; Hon. Neil Bailey. candidate for the assembly, are the candidates of the Democratic party, which in this election has gone before the voters with platform pledging the passage of certain laws which are in the best interest of our people. These candidates are running before the people on the territorial Demo cratic platform and the county Demo cratic platform. These candidates
 are pledged to the passage of a direct primary law, which will effectually eliminate the professional politician from dictating nominations; these men are pledged to the passage of a three cent fare bill in Arizona; these candidates are pledged to the revis- ion of the present incorporation laws in Arizona; these candidates are pledged to equal taxation and each and every paragraph of the Demo cratic platform in Arizona this yeai declares for the measures which that party is bound to support. In addi- ton these candidates for the legisla- ture, in the event of statehood at the short session of congress, may be call ed upon to elect two United States
 senators from Arizona. It is impor- tant that the Democrats control both
 branches of the next legislature. When
 it comes to casting your vote for con
 gressman and members of the legisla-
 ture, vote your political principles, and especially so, when the Democrats
 have offered to the voters of Cochise a congressman and candidates for
 the legislature against whom not a single word can be said.
