Too much Cotton will be our
Ruin.

With the prevailing high
prices of food and feed-stuffs it
would seem to be superfluous to
urge the farmers of this section
of country, now, that the United
States is actually engaged in war
with mighty and powerful foe,
to grow more to eat for man and
beast But from the present in
dications it appears that warn
ing is necessary. From all the
best information we can obtain
many of the Drew county farm
ers contemplate planting as
much, or more, cotton than usu-
al. This, Of course, is a risky
business, and TO our mind blind
and bad venture. There may be
good price for cotton next Fall
or there may not; but even II
the price should be high it would
avail the farmer nothing if he is,
for lack of foresight, forced to
buy his bread and meat at the,
almost certain, high prices which
will prevail.
