recently it was slated that (lie v
cost ol cotton in the Piedmont was
about 8 cents a pound. That w
was an off-hand estimate. Some ^
ot the fanners say that i' will N
co. t 12 to 14 cents. When the 1
English spinners woie in this

said in a pompous way that eot- a
ton ecu d b ? in ide at a profit an i n
sold at 5 cents, lie perhaps c
could not have oeen able to tell v
cotton from ".Jim on'* weed. ''
These men labor under errors. 3
