William* writes to the Aiken Time*: 1 noticed In my previous article brief ly the oondirlon* existing In the North. . Reasoning by analogy, just a* Mire ga a 7 large |ier «u*wtof the Northern farmers were forced to continue grain and hay in .competition with tl^e West, just to will a much larger per cent of our Southern farmers be compelled to Con tinue cotton as a money crop. We hare not the outlet they had for diversified crops in their large towns, nor will we have until the crnj> 1* manufactured here. Cotton manufacturing tenda toward* building Urge (owns. Cotton growing (Joes not. H I* a notable fact that no town in a strictly cotton grow ing section ever attained a population 1(NUNN>. After Ills baled one or two hands can handle or transfer all the cotton made in a county. Again, other thing's equal, man ufactories other than cottoli naturally gravitate to the grain field toward cheap bread «tid meat. Perishable stuff shipped Ifom the South to the North ern cities cost such Heavy freight ami express charge* that it must sell high to prevent loss. When sold high the conauiii|ition is limited. For Instance Baltimore will take p«rd%y for canning and all uses, If from vicinity without freight, comparatively, forty or fifty cars. One car from here per day with heavy express Charge* I* all that can be sold at a profit. The mas* of consumers there, at everywhere else, are pwr and can only use things iu quantity when cheap. Grower* there are satisfied with one-fourth for their fruit of what we pay forgetting oura there. Though the hiisioess of *hipp!ng fresh fruit* H not overdone, yet Its expansion i- com paratively limited. If all laud and -ections were suitable only a limited area could lie utilized. But tor canned fruits and vegetable* It is different. The unreasonable prejudice against home good* has boeti dissipated by a few pio'ieer canuers and now all markets are opened to our goods, The growth -of the canning business has been nrarwlous. The difference of freight doe* mil auect it. and there is no reason why we cannot in all fruits stiff vegetables except possibly corn✓tionipete with any sec tion In the Unitefffltstc«. While Hie outlet for canned good* I* much greater than fresh, yet a very small pir cent of the land devoted to cotton could be substituted. Now as to the crop* that can -be sub-, stitutedfor it as a money crop, I ani sorry to say that white their numlier is large their extension ds llmlteil. Let us note the most available at present. On the coast belt vegetable*! berries; *»paragUM, etc. could probably be ex tended yet. Hi the middlelielt peaches pears, apples, plums and asparagus and in the upper grajie* -pears, apple* and hrrrlc*. The melon are* ha* reached its limit and can not lie extended, ns a crop of ov'er 20.0 0 acres f«»r our State and 30/ssi for Georgia is disastrous. I n the middle and lower section the cul tivation of potatoes, both sweet and Irish could be considerably extended, in certain favorable sections, tobacco can be grown, hut this is a precarious and rxpen.lve crop. The growers in the regular tobacco sections are as anx ious to sub*titiite something for It as we are for count)—All these ctqjM are bulky and could be planted only a few miles from the railroad. In looking over tlie whole field w'c are forced to the conclusion that three fourths of our farmers at l<-n-t. willing or tin willing, willhe forced totontinue cotton a* their money crop.
