The fall in the price of cotton Is a
South. 1t is only a repetition nj the
truth often manifested that the South
gets less money for a large crop tnan
for a short crop. The only way The
farmers of the South can max them
selves permanently independent is to
adopt as a MOTTO and come to il as
as possible. We will import moth
ing to eat for man or beast"
At present the high prices OF -four
and meat bears heavily upon The
Southern farmers and the prices pre-
vailing during the past year have
ing the cotton crop. His only perma-
nent salvation is for him to raise his
own hog and hominy." More corr
has been raised this. year than over
and more hogs, too. SO that We arc IN
a better condition to stand 4 low IIICe
on cotton than if we had raised ,ees
hogs and hominy: but the Southern
farmer will never be really ind'Icn-
dent until he ceases to depend Jp'n
the West for his bread and meat and
to swap his cotton and his tobacco Tor
something with which to feed himself,
his family and his stock. lHle'd,
North Carolina farmers ought 80 brelF
now and to organize and fight So tL"t
they Will reach the place where we
will not import a pound Of meat 90 a

East. 1t would work a revolution IN
this State if the North Carolina farm
ers did not buy any meat or tr'a1'
but raised it here at home. and i"'y
car do it and should do it.
or course, this would mean that
would get as much for q ten million
pale cotton crop as they would for d
Condemnation bale crop; and men
they get their money for cotton they
could use it to buy clothes and the
comforts Of life instead of the ntces-
sity Of buying bread and meat.
The resolutions passed by the Wake
county farmers calling upon the :aihl-
ers to save all the hay possible ana -
plan big grain crops this fall. is a very
wise one. If they will do this, th'
farmers will be in a condition not 10

PRICES ADVICE TO COTTON
FARMERS.

A prominent North Carolina cotton
mill man says the crop his year Will
not be under fourteen million bales
if it can be gathered, and if October
is as favorable a month as September
was it will be a good deal over four
teen million bales. Certainly the
crop has matured earlier than ever
as the ginning figures show. When
the farmers met at Montgomery they
put the crop at 12,500,O0 bales and
the figures at fourteen to fifteen cents.
Since then conditions have been very
favorable and the cotton crop is I'M
doubtedly some larger than was then
supposed. How large it will be no
man can tell. Many believe that there
will be no top crop and therefore
thai before Thanksgiving Day 1t Will
be seen that the crop is less than thlr-
teen million bales. h slump in the
market is a very serious one to the
people of the South and the situation
calls for the arneS cooperation OF
the armers business men and bank
erS.
Theodore II. Price, who now has
his office in Dallas, Teaxs, has issued
a circular letter on the cotton mar
has travelled extensively in the cotton
manufacturing districts Of both
America and Europe and in the cot
ton fields Of the South, n he gives
the following advice to the farmers:
Last year at this time the market
was advancing rapidly, and
the crop was a short one, the farm
ers were receiving a reasonably gen
erous reward for their Ia
Il ann greatly impressed with the
contrast between this year and last.
/ have been through literally hun
dreds of cotton fields in both North
and South Texas in the past thirty
days. Making u allowance for the
increase in acreage, ] ann strongly
impressed with the fact that the yield
per acre will not be any larger this
year thar it was last.
Yet, owing to an apparent mIscOn-
ception regarding the size Of the crop,
the rme of the South are engaged
in "a de~plorable competition as to who
shall sell their cotton cheapest. The
fact that the crop has prematurely
opened all 1t once, and is, as far as
possible, all being marketed in a few
weeks. adds to the generalization of a
situation which will become acute un-
less balanced by s~elf-control.
The world needs all and more tina
all the cotton that the South can this
year produce. On the average it takes
one pound Of cotton to make five
yards Of cloth. An advance Of 5
cents a pound on cotton, therefore.
results in an advance Of l cent a yard
in the CLOTH, which is consumed by a
world population of nearly n thous-
and million people.
ION the otner hand. an advance of
5 cents a pound in cotton means $25
a bale. or something owe $500, O00,-
900, which would be distributed
among the eighteen million people
resident in the cotton States.
u call upon the farmers Of the
South to pause in the financial sui
eide in which they are now engaged.
There is no necessity for it. 1t means
great distress and serious loss to
MANY defenselesS men and women.
"D~eliberation, investigation and in
telligent action by the individual will
result in aVerting an enormous loss
to the people of the cotton States"
