X * In 'the mad rush to raise cotton the South has lost sight of innumerable opportunities to^make money otherwise, the superb climate and soil that this section enjoys making It possible to produce practically everything that the population requires; and if more attention were only paid to some these other crops and Industrie^ the South would not be prostratfe today, but could readily sell this year's cotton crop for a good figure, or if the farmers preferre\ could store the ditions, legal and political, made it impossible to protect food In the open, waiting to be taken at night; also, the phenomenal prices of cotton raised hope that even casual labor could be made profitable. "Today cattle and sheep and liogf are reasonably safe, and the negrc has very largely deserted the old black belts. The land Is cheap and the climate is more favorable than that which threatened the Western pastures with the necessity of feed ing during the winter and the possibility of blizzard weather for weeks The unprofitable fields of cotton oiaiT-o ??lll u^illll ue II UI1SI urilicil into profitable pastures, and the ok plantation becomes once more t stock farm provided due care anc knowledge be enlisted in the change Our European cotton market hai failed, but our meat market is at tlu door?the South is no longer divid ed into neighborhoods by inck oi transportation facilities. Instead of begging private capita and the public treasury to help u: in the business of growing cotton why not transform the plantation! into ranches and go to foddering iht cows? The man who can grow twc bales of cotton can care for a here ^ of cattle with less work and m.>r< profit, provided order and law hai been now so well established thai the laborer thrown out of employ xnent can be made to respect tin property of another.

Y * cotton for better \rlces, while complacently watching ;tho outcome of the European war. In connection with cattle raising, the Florida Times-Union had the following excellent article a few days ago. "In 1860 the South was as much of a cotton plantation as it is in 1914, but at the call of necessity she made a quick change that amounted to a transformation; she fed her armies, and from the fields untouched by the enemy she took a great surplus in 1865. Ouce more the call has gone forth, and the same change can be made if she be wise. Cotton at 10 cents pays expenses, and she can not hope to do better with it until she has once more a mark'et in Europe?the war may endure for a year or two but the recuperation of the Industrial population cannot occur immediately; it will be five years before there can be a demand for cotton which took the crop of last year. "But the South need not depend on one crop. Meat and bread are wanted now, and the lands of the South can give us cheaper meat than those of the West. In 186 5 the herds and flocks of the South were notable for both numbers and good conditions; the old cotton fields would have continued to serve as pastures, but for the fact that at Idle population of irresponsible new citizens were hungry enough to dare the shotgun for good, and con BlacPS in my home."
