President Harris of the Far mors'
Union has issued" a circular tolling
the runners In hold (heir cotton.
Those who hnve cotton would do well
to read what President. Harris has to
say. Cotton has advanced recently and
there is force in the argument of Mr.
Harris. The crop conditions are not
f.norable and the last crop was over
4.000,000 hales short. The mills cannot
spin futures and the speculators
who have been forcing the price of
spot cotton down will be called upon
by the mills for the actual slulT and
as ' 's 'be hands of the farmers
largely they will haw to y? Hie
farmers for it.
Anot he:- taternen! in President
Harris' circular to which we direct
special at lent ion is | ha I corn is now
selliiiy at *1.00 |>lM- b.^hcl cash and
il i- not y,.( too late lo plant corn for
this year, 11 the farmers will fill
Ibeir cribs with corn and olh?r food
supplies they will be in much belter
IiIi?ni when I he next crop of cotton
- harvested to fix the price at which
will sell it. rt i> important,
therefore, to plant plenty of corn.

I here is no doubt that Senator

more competent to discharge the duties

II you have no stand of cotton it
is not too late to plant corn. The
acreage in cotton miyhl also be reduced
by planting the land in peas.
It cotton should n;o down in price you

it is better to have plenty of corn and
fodder in your own crib, it matters
little what the price of cotton may be.
