Are we to go on 'with the same old program of drifting back into an alk cotton crop or will we profit by l>ast experience antKgive our fanning trade a balanced ration? The lure of cotton at ^12c the pound is all but ir resistible to the farmers who cannot see farther than the end of his nose ? to the fellow who takes no thought of the morrow year. This siren call of 12c cotton will bring many a craft about'and head it for the swift and uncertain channel of the one-crop sys tem.' JMay be the pilot will bring her through and avoid the rpeks, and it is fine enough when she drifts free on the placid waters l>elo\V the rapids of 12c the j?ound and $40 the ton for seed. But ? It is terribly unpleasant when the little cockle-shel one-crop boat is tossed upon the rugged rocks of a <k* and 7c market. Once perhaps, there may be salvage enough from the wreck to enable the farmer-mariner to make sail again with va patched up hulk, but another dose of such usage j and he is sure to be cast away hope lessly on the rocks of bankruptcy and ruin. Not only does the fle market lurk surely in his course but now he must certainly face the prospect of the boll weevil. There is no escaping the cer tainty of this ilevilish creature. Last year he spread over twenty-seven now counties in Georgia and came within A year's travel of our own state. One year mote; maybe two. After that vfe must battle with the boil-weevil. ?

"This Information is to the effect that for years past In the three states in question ami more particularly In the two Carollmis there have been varying prices for cotton, often this difference amounting to one-half eent ' a pound in two points not more than lit I miles distant from each other. "This difference in price. It Is al leged in complaints which have reach ed the colli mission, seems to be the nolo result of t he workings of t his com bination. For instance, it is cited, many cities and towns have practically no live market duo to the fact that divisions of territory for buyliui pur poses are 'made, one territory belong ing to one buyer, another to uiiothcr.
