Hold your cotton and reduce
your acreage next year may be
good advice, buff d man is able
to follow the advice he is all right,
but few people can do this, for as
a rule the man who has a few
bales of cotton has no money and
he is depending on the sale of the
cotton TO pay debts contracted
for supplies furnished while the
crop was being made, and the
merchant Who has furnished the
supplies needs the money to set
tie his own accounts, hence some.
thing must be done. 1t is good
advice to say hold your cotton, !"
but not practicable in the major
ity of cases. This brings up the
old question of a man raising
what he needs in the way of pro
visions at home, insofar as pos
sible, thus reducing his expenses
to the minimum. In cases where
this is done there is chance for
holding cotton when the price is
not satisfactory, but wnen pay
for everything is depending on
the sale of that cotton, the sale
is very likely to have to be made
promptly, regardless of the con
dition of the market. The Ark
ansas farmer can raise practical
ly everything he needs in the way
of provisions at home, except
sugar and coffee, and that part of
the bill would be so small as not
to be worth estimating. When
this is done the producer can sell
or hold, just as he chooses, and
he will not have to ask any man
what is the best thing to do"
