FRIDAY, SEPT.l7 1900.

Cotton continues to come to the
Batesburg market in large quantities
and the price is holding up, bringing
over twelve cents.

his business of rushing such a
bulk OF cotton on the market in
September and October is nothing
more nor less than business suicide
on the part of farmers. 1t would be
mighty fine thing if the farmers
could run on a cash basis. The
same thing would be true of a mer-
chant, cotton factory, a railroad, a
coal mine, bank or any other in
dustry but everything is run more
or less on a credit basis and we NAV
never hope tina; the farming indus
try will be much different from what
it is now in that respect. What the
farmer needs is spreading out of
his selling season. But don't hold
your cotton at home when you are
in debt. This is embarrassing TO
your creditor and is slouchy dis
honest way of doing business.
We long to see the time when orr
farmers will act on good business
principles.
