hlittt lo 111? edltol bf The Ledger ;
yesterday, "and every tfehaut on I
uiy places will tedude Inn cotton j j
acreage at least one-fourth." In
rttlsxVor lo further questions he i
stated, "I run ah eight biJUej
farm individually and there are j
G8 plows run by tenants and
croppers on my places." ? "I am
holding between two and three
hundred bules of cotton for 10
cents, and unless ?omo worse mis- j
foitune befalls me than what over j
has, 1 can hold it as long as 1
live." Mr CI) burn is one of Lancaster
county's largest and best
farmers. He attended tho Mew i
Orleans cotton convention and is ^
enthusiastic in the belief that the
only way for the south to get in
the saddle is to reduce its cotton
production ? mako no more cotton
than is needed. Mr Clyhurn is a
big farmer and is setting the pace i
for other big farmers. What ate |
tho other big farmers of the county
to do? They say re
miction is i.'io imng. it will encourage
smalt farmers very much
to carry out their pledges of reduction
to know how much the
lug farmers ine going to reduce. 1
