Editor The Commonwealth:
The past week has been a blessing
to the planters enabling them to put
in a whole weeks work which was so
much needed. Under favorable con-
ditions even, the crop will be late.
What the acreage will be the planter
himself cannot exactly tell. Some
new land has been taken in but no
considerable percentage. Many fields
of oats killed by the extreme cold
weather, are being plowed up, but
whether corn or cotton will take the
place Of this crop so unfortunately de-

If cotton should even maintain its
present price, the grower at the un-
usual prices of provisions and feed
stuffs cannot expect profit, provided
there is an average crop, if the boil
Weevil does extensive damage, the
chances are of course reduced. 1t
would seem reasonable that every
