Farmer* and Commercial Fertiliser*.
Editor Headlight:
If the guano dealers expect to sell an
goods this year they must cut ilieir price
and cut thetu deep, too. They have oul
made a reduction of about $1.00 on the lot)
and our planters are determined not to p*
this price and are a unit iu this movo. Tl
past week 1 talked to not le-s than fift
representative farmers, from different po:
t'ons of Spartanburg couuty, and they de
clare, to a man, that not a dust of guauo wi
they buy until the dealers come to their term
, that their next crop of cotton is alread
[ sold at from three to four cents an
L that they ure not fools enough wit
this light before them, to go in debt for con
merciul manures, uud give all their cr<<|
next fall to the guauo dta'ers. On theothi
hand, whether they raise much or littl
they will control it, and will come out wit
[ more clear money in the end. This is a wii
determination, and 1 bulieve it will headhe
t ed to. And not ?nly in Spartan! tr g coum
are the farmers fixed iu their ideas to tl
without guano, hut the same sentiment pri
. vails all over this and other southern state
And 1 believe, too. that if our planters w;
stand together, and they can f ice thes
guano dealers into terms. They no
1 have their goods made up, and mu
' sell them, lly next season half their strngt
will be evaporated, und their value lost. S
1 I say to farmers, s'nud firmly iu your tracl
and you will whip this figlu as you did ihn
jute trust. There is no justice iu everythin
the farmer grows selling below cost of pri
duction, while be must pay a big profit o
what he buys. 1' is altogether wrong. !V
see from the daily papers that guano dealei
recently held a meeting in Columbia au
formed a trust, by which tliey agreed to ri
duce the manufacture one-third so as i
hold up prices. This little feint at redut
tion they offer over last year is no indue
ment whatever.
Quano forms a component part af the cotto
crop, aid should hear its shave of the ri
duction in price, and uot make the poor fai
, mer carry the whole load.
