be gicompllsbed Is to raise our own
suppUee without diminishing the
quantity of cotton. This Is the prob

I think so, very easily. Many writers
have blamed the cotton planters for
planting too much cotton and too little
corn. This will uerer m^ st eera will
not even ppjr to make more than
enough to supply the plantation, as it
expansive and an uncertain crop,
