The Iowa man was ab»e to Cirttlyate • tghty acres of land white the South Carolinian cultivated only tlfteen aim- ply because in South Carolina there was only one hor.e and 488 7A worth ot Implement* for each two agricultural laborers, while in Iowa there were .even horse* ami $Jfil worth of farm Infpleitienta for eac h two ag r icnltural laborer*.

SEVEN CENTS COTTON. E. L. Archer attended the Cotton Convention ill Dallas. Texas. He re ports that he saw oceans of land, little small grain and no signs of thrift and comfort amongst tlie tenant class. They are much worse olf^ than the same da** of^people in 4hr*-county. Much of tlie hind about Dallas amt along tlie road i* owned hv people liv ing hi towns. They rent the Und and r*quire it to he planted in c<>ttou . He saw little cotton in the part of the State lie traveled through. It l* evident that Texas land owners wi.l plant for tour million -hales this year. Okla hnma will cure in for another tnillimi. Mr. Archer’s opinion is that tlie a.rreage planted this Spring in cotton indicates 7 cents as the price. Caro'ina Spartan. A KENTUCKY CANDIDATE.
