Is a ‘dec! dad and hi cress -
log tendency to diversified fanning,
stock-raising, fruit growing and small
grslu ctope, and a disposition to de
velop the minor resources of the farm,
guch as sorghum, millet ebufss, &o.
One'ot the most striking and deeply
Interesting features of the report is
the collection of statistics Is refsrd to
the cost of the production of cotton,
with comments of tbe Commissioner.
The statistics are based on twp esti
mates - one of the lowest cost at which
cotton can bo produced by farmers
who raise everything at home, and the
who wry oitcot), 10117, syrup, «e., ana
ppsre or loss corn. The Comadssloo-
er’s estiraato of tbe average cost lo
course both these estimates cover only
short staple cotton. Tbe report says;
“The conclusion is inevitable tljat the'
“farmer who has mads an overage
_ “ crop of ootton and produced Ot the
“ same time a full suppljt con, fod-
“ds/orbay, syrup, potatoes, vegeta
bles, bacon and lard, and has 4 stock
“of hogs and cattle for tbe □#*• year,
?feas done a profitable year's work;
“ and Just In proportion as he hfes neg
“looted these supplies bis profits
“have been less and less until the op-
“poslte extreme is reached, when he
“will have lost act less than'4 8-10
“ eshteon every pound produced.”
These estimates are not mads on
tbs actual outlay, but on tbs lowest
price at which cotton must be sold to
save the farmer from loss on his gen
eral farm operations.
It does not appear Very dearly from
the report what particular Items make
up the estimated cost, and as this Is a
matter of the greatest interest to the
farmers all ov jr the South, we would
Uke to see a detailed statement of how
the estimate is mads. It la evident t bat
the Coinmlsalooer bas done feta work
systematically and thoroughly, and
he could doubtless give tbe information
to the public In a short letter, aad we
kope that he will

At the edd of the report there are a
number of valuable tables, from one
of which tbe following lutereeting facts
are taken ; In Gsorgla the average
wages of full hand*, men, in addition
to rations, are $8 31 per month, and 44
cents per day. Tbs average number
of bales of cotton made per mule Un
the wages system is 4 4 10, on the
share system 85 10. Of the farm
laborers employed this year 83 per

tem, 42 per cent, on shares, and 26 per

was most satisfactory to 60 per cent,
