Tbe people seem to have faith in tbe rlbe in * price, and when ll is below ten cents a great per cent, of tbe ootton 1b stored. From onr information we are Inclined that a Id this vicinity the crop this year Is larger than In any year since the world began. , We all orted out against tbe dry weather, " bat tbe dry weather has matured tbe orop and * tbe fields are still white with the stable, al- ^ U/vmmK V* a?a nun fnwrt fa rmaro \f o rt n at all Who have not already gathered much more than they did last year. Tbl8 editor, like a majority of editors, knows nearly everything about farmlug. Last year be and bla tenants made about five bales on the Norrls Creek farm, which he sold In ad' yanoe of the gathering at nine cents, and not gathering more tbaa one-third of what he old, bad to bay the shortage on the streets at 10 1-2 cents. This year Mr. 8. M. Fleming and bis tenants on the same farmbad sold thirty-one bales some tbree weeks ago. This, too, in tbe race ol tbe fact tbat Mr. > Fleming bad never bad any experience in editing a newspaper. If ho bad bad forty i years experience at the printing business we \ have no doubt tbat he would have gathered by this time not less than sixty bales. But C despite bis lack of experience at the printing ] ' business, the good rains in the spring and tbe dry weather In tbe Fall will enable blm to gather about forty-five bales off af a farm that made about Ave bales last year, not counting i two balee of "dog tall" that was gathered after ' Christmas. We mention the difference In the produo tlon of this particular farm to show that the favorable weather has enabled Mr. Fleming to beat even an editor at farming. If Mr. Fleming bad been a printer for forty years t ! be might have made under tbe favorable c v conditions of this year about a hundred ^ bales. f Speaking of the increase of crop, we believe j there la a general demand for greater ginning j acoomodatlobs. While we have our doubts ^ about the necessity or advlslbillty ofstartlng f a new ginnery, yet we are flrmly convinced f ! that there is a demand for an Increase in tbe r ? capacity of tbe existing glnnerleB. p ;; As it 1b possible that the oil mills of tbe ooantry may find It to tbelr Interest to do more of the ginning' it might be well for private individuals to be well advised before ^ patting up new ginneries. The commission t whloh tbe oil mills pay for buying seed Is c nearly on uiucu w> iuw uu?> w |iuuiu|, bagging and ties. 1 It is possible tbat tbe little gins may Dot 1 find It profitable to gin at a reduced price, wblcb reduced price may come.
