THE COTTON SITUATION

ing cotton as means of paying their
debts, and instead have undertaken to
avoid the incurrence of debts. This
is clearly a saner solution of the
problem, and comes about by substi-
tuting for cotton, in more ways than
one highly expensive crop to make.
truck, grains, cattle, etc.
And SO in the light of these facts, l
say. our farmers are making grave
mistake in continuing to raise cotton
to the almost exclusion of other
things, unless their barns and bins.
pantries, cribs and smokehouses are
filed with home-raised food and feed
stuffs. 1t is first of all essential that
the individual farm be self-sufficing,
then the net income from the cotton
crop becomes almost a final profit to
the farmer; then the returns from the
farmers investment, both in capital
and in labor, goes to the replenishing
of his own pockets, rather than to the
filling Of the Golfers of the commission
merchants and the northern and west-
ern commercial lords. Under this sys-
tenn even our own supply merchants
wealth, but not our farmers, and it is
for the farmers that I am pleading.
It is the farmer who must write his
own salvation, however. This saliva
tion will come and can come only
through a more well rounded system
of crop production than we now have.
Did you know, my farmer friends, that
today North Carolina produces less
corn, wheat, oats, peas and beans, po-
tatoes, beef pork and mutton per cap
ita than it did before the war? Did
you know that this falling off in food
production was accompanied by an in
crease of 1890 per cent in the produc-
ton of cotton? Here lies the problem,
and to it you have the key. Will you
use it, or will you leave it rusting?
And now, in conclusion, from this
study one thing stands out pre-emi-
nent1y, and that is this: That what
ever the condition of a county, whetI-
er it shows a decrease or an increase
in the production of cotton, Or shows
that it is standing still, this fact is
not of primary importance. That
county is in the hea1thiest condition
which first of all feeds itself, and then
has in addition for temporary and per-
manent improvements the proceeds
from it's annual cotton crop.

In this two part Bison drama as grip-
ping a story as the Universal ever has
released is told. The theme depicts
the sad story of a deceived girl and of
the consequences of her initial act
The moral of the drama is as old as
the green fields of England but the
lesson taught is as fresh and as ap-
plicable to the present day as it was
a thousand years ago. While the pres
ent tendency of most moving picture
companies is pure sensationalism, the
Universal has always striven to main
tain high moral standard in it's re-
leases to teach a lesson plain enough
for all to understand at the same time
introducing story replete with vigor-
GUS action, SO that he who seeks en-
tertainment and thrill will not be
disappointed in seeing ''The Mad Maid
of the Forest"
In connection with the above picture
at the Acme today, there will be
seen Nestor comedy with Lee Moran
and Billy Rhodes in "The Tail of His
Pants" Every one is familiar with
the Nestor comedies, and this is one
of their best.
