Must Stand Together.
Taking the cue from the convention
at Now Oleany, Southern
newspapers have endorsed the
n I il II <if ri'i i I ini ii it l!m <>i ill. in iii'i'i'
ago and they aio giving wide publicity
to the efforts of the farmers
to control the situation in the
futuro. in this matter the press
can be of inestimable value to the
South. The futuro welfare of the
people depends upon united action
and if wo hope to accomplish tho
aims desired it is absolutely ncces
sary for the planters to stand together.
They must abide by the
agreement. They must cut the
cotton acreage 25 per cent., they
must buy less fertilizers, and they
mu9t go in for diversified farming
on a more elaborate scale. Tho
association idea must spread to
every township and hamlet, and
if the mon who produce tho money
crop will not throw away the opportunity
tboy will reap full benefit
and profit from their labors in
the fall. To further carry out
the movement in behalf of tho
farmers, it is important to hold u
part of tho present crop, refusing
to throw it on the market ftt prices
far below the actual cost of production.
The leading "bear"
speculator in .New York, who
would become a "bull1' tomorrow,
if that would heln to till his nock
ets with gold, is bonding out Hum*
mg advertisements, urging tho
producers to sell before tho market
is driven down to livo cents. It
is not safe to regard what ho says,
but it is safe to join in with the
majority of Southern people who
are just beginning to show tho
master hand. ? Greenville News.
The action of the Now Orleans
convention as shown by tho full
reports of its proceedings printed
during its session and since its adjournment,
was most conservative.
As pointed out by The Times-Democrat,
it did not waste time in
condemning dealing in futures,
and other things over which the
iarmers nan no control, out went
directly at the question of acreage
and use of fertilizer. There is
where the planters can act effectively;
can, if they desire, absolutely
control the price of cotton,
at least so far as keeping it at a
fair price is concerned, and it is
agreeable to see them working to
to that end. The deliberations of
former conventions have boon
#
mora in tbo way of puttig the re*
sponslbility on oilier* thm on the
planters themselves, uml little, if ^
anything, was accomplished. The
Now Orleans meeting, however
made the production of the sta
plu practically the solo object of
its assemblage, and the result wil1
bo watched witch interest. When
the next convention meets at Ashe
ville in August it will doubtless
s
rocievo reports that will show actually
what has been accomplished
toward the 25 per cent, reduction
of the area devoted to the staple. ^
c
It is an undertaking of vast proportion,
but one which can be carried
out if the farmers stick together

The Solution in a Nutshell.
lcthod Tiilit Will bolve Cotton
Problem.?Fifty-two Successful
Cropi.
"o the Editor of The State:
The u'l-aboorbing question for
olut'on is how can we get rid of
i cent cotton aud make it imposihle
for it ever to return and digress
our peop e ?
This will doit: Let every
;rowor of cotton 6ow wheat, rye,
nits and barley in ample quantity
or home consumption ond some
o spire. When these grains are
akcn off the land sow one bushel
>f pous ou ooch aero to make peanno
hay. When in bloom cut
,ho vinos and cure and house them
!or feed, to sell what is not needed
)U tho farm ^hen the proper time
:omo8. After thorough proparaion
of the land plant ample acreige
in corn to secure euough tor
lOtne consumption with some to
?pare. Drop peas between the
nils of corn or sow them broadcast,
one-half bushel to the acre,
he last plowing to improve the
and. Let each farmer secure one
)r more mares and raise his mules
ind horses instead of buying
hem. The writer had a half
U'otber who laieod eight mules in
line years from one . mare. He
liissed only one year in nine.
Sherman's army stole them all.
Let each farmer be well stock d
with hogs, sheep, goats, cattlo
in 1 poultry. Let each farmer be
elf-supporting as near as possilie.
After each grower of cotton bus
lone the above, let him plunt all
lie cotton ho can cultivate well,
nako every pound lie can and sell
t for all he can get, which will
lot bo less than 10 cents. If the
;rowers of cotton will fall in lino
nd follow the advico given, tho
teoplo of our southland will ho
ho richest and hnppiost people on
arth in 10 years.
Let every one who has cotton on
land hold it if he can. Let tho-e
irho cannot hold sell direct to our
uctories. If they have to give it
way, give it to our own people,
was told a few days ago by the
(resident of a factory that he
rould give more than anyone
Ise.
While a large crop was made
ist year, the writer docs not
elieve there is more cotton in exjlence
than the factories will
ecd. Last year hocauso of the
igh price of cotton, the factories
an on short time, some of them
losed down. Notwithstanding
bis there was no cotton at the
lose of the seuson to be* had.

Columbia, .Jan. 27.?It is stated
that the commission appointed
to report on tho feasibility of the
State ontet inpr into tho fertilizer
business will make a report Monday,
and it will reconimeud that
a fert'lizer factory he established
in or in connection with tho d:s
pensary. It will ho claimed, it in
said, that the people of tho State
paid about $2,000,000 more for
fertilizer last year than they onjjht
to have, and since courts have fa'j
ed to givo relief the State should
do so Tho proposition is to s'art
out with one faotory and increase
tho number as occasion or circumstances
may demand. The
farmers of tho State will tie called
upon in tho report,it is said, to
meet in the Court House of the
various counties on salesdny in
February to adopt resolutions favoring
the plan, and to show the
Legislature that thov demand action.
This correspondent's informant
says the report will create
