OVER PLANTING FOLLY. - Prcaidcnt M. L. Johnson of the Gforgia-Divisiuii eWimiernTJoTtoii As- soclatloti, give* this eye opening advice to the farmer* of the Stale, which tit* all the South as well: “To the planters and the people of Georgia! Let uie call your attention and your earnest thought to the fol lowing extract Irom The _New York Commercial of March S.—* _r -. —-1- •‘Tlie bears dwell constantly on the 'jralui that the^ south will plant more cotton this spring by uiilliona of acres than waa ever planted before. The cotton beat aLway*-operate* upon tlm idti that there is. little common sense j*opth of the Mason and DInoii line.” >‘‘Do you. realize jy%lit»jts ,innm»y IffVItvraCT the planter, are Che wont bear of all, for you are bear- to* th« market by tdantiug more cotton tlun the world needs. T h e qnl-kyrt Itti tbfl moat effective way to hear the' market Is to create a supply which ex- weeda the world’* demands. The hear* ♦f Wall street are *luu>lT betting that yeo will bear yottr tiwn crop by oyer- pNmtlng; that you and I will sell our eotton for le*a than to cents because fels very overplanting will force down Mb price. If you plant Uai much he will win, if you hokl down your acre- . age he will lose. . . - Did you ever ston to tliink why mtilesareso high? It. is because of shelr acarcity; the supply is loss than the demand. By preparing to plant a large acreage you are Increasing that demand for mute* and running up the f»ffea. The same rule applies to a!) produce, corn, oata, wheat, meat and jou-are building the western markets (n tlieso products by not producing y^tuir own supply at home, lu other- ■wArJs by not producing your own sup- plto* you are raising the price of wh*tr+ yoti have to buy, and by overplanting cottob you are lowering the price of whatyoti have to sell. Is tliis busi ness? Is it not tho very reverse of ttWbuslnett principle*? Think about «bla earnest!y and seriously and then decide.
