SK&BHJB Til E COTTON It AI SIN ( J IN M S TRY. f IVhy is I)oht the Normal Condi tion of tho Cotton Kaiser ??No groos Should ho Hired tor .lion ey Wages. > (From the New York Journal of Commerce.) The Political Science Quarterly for Soptembor coutaiued an in teresting sketch of tho cottoi raising industry iu this country under the old regime, as well ai under the new. The borrowing habits of the cotton raiser are ex plained, but the cause is not. Wh] is debt tho normal condition o the cotton raiser and not of tin Northern farmer who raises whoa and corn? Mr. Hammond, th< writer of the article, explains th< Southern farmer's predilectioi for cotton, 60 far as his career cai be forecast, to raiso cotton ant hi:v hn atmnliAN fmm tlitt Vnrfli west. But the country has beei assured in the last three years to several Southern men that tin farmers of their section are raiR a ing much more of their own nup plies, and therofore, Rpond les money than formerly for 4,hog ati( hominy" from the West. < -otton will always bring money it is the only crop on which th< ^ merchant to whom he owes mon oy insists on his planting cotton __ 1 At . ? _ ll. _ ^ 1 ami me crop is one mar negro ia bor is peculiarly quHlified to cul It does not suffor, us otlie crops do, from occasional neglect a.,d in the picking th^ childrn bo utilized more effective!; than in most vnrielios of farn work. Its culture has boon learn cd by tho negroes,and it. is a o]r>v and laborious process to enlarge their knowledge by teachinj them to raise any thing else. Tho large crops of cotton raiser in '-iter years have led to tho in foronco that free labor vcsn mor< ollicieut than slave labor. Mr Hammond does not think so. lit hrvh the general testimony is tba the most effective workers ar< the older men and women win learned to labor in slavery. Th( extension of cotton raising; wesi of the Mississippi River, mainl} >into Texas, he regards as the roa son for the increase of the crops Texas not only has a vast aroa ol new soil, which yields woli with out fertilising, but it has a largei percentage of white labor thar the older Onlf States, and with X this more efficient labor the pro ductiou is more economical. Cultivation by negro tenants or shares has become common bo cause the planters after the war I lacked money to pay wages with, J and, of courso, the negro had no I money to pay rent, with. Where the negro tenant farmers works under white snpervisiou he is fairly efficient, and if he is working in the immediate vicinity of the owner of the plantation he is apt to receive as imperative instructions as though he were working for the planter, and to obey him as docilely. Where he is remoto from white direction or j example, Mr. Hammond iutij mates that iiis cultivation reaches 1 ; about the lowest grades of shift; | le&sness. i ! The two great evils of cotton ! J culture Mr. llammond bolievos ( .are this "cropping," as it is callj J od, the cultivation by negro toni I ants on shares, and the crep liens. ) I or the mortgaging of the cotton ' ' crop to the merchant to secure ' I him for advance of supplies. The j only remedy for the farmer is the I hiring of the negroes for money wages, as thoy become landowner! very slowly. Mr. llammond says that wherever "cropping" and cultivation by .hired labor are car J - * J - i M *? ni"u on hiuo vy Biue, mo superiority of the latter is apparent and the causes that forced the "cropping" system on the South have mainly passed away, so that there is a prospect that evolution may finally rclen-ite "cropping" to oblivion and cotton be cultivated mainly by hired negroes, but of / course, to some extent by negro proprietors.

Ucbtiison. in Metropolitan nut Kurul Home. > In a Into mammoth Sunday pa3 per a writer suggested to young t men that the heat thing tor them i to do was to become acquainted > with different lines of industry ; * so that, should the time over 1 como when they wore thrown out ' of employment, they could rcadi ' ly adapt themselves to the oppor ' tunitios that presented them solves, and rnovo right along. In looking over the life of a farmer's hoy we can readily see that the main element in the success he always makes, in any walk of life, is his readiness to adapt himself to anything that comes to hand, While it cannot be denied that a "jack of trades'' is "master of none," it is equally true that tlie fan boy becomes acquainted w such a variety of work and comes so expert in all, that can successfully handle aln anything that comes up. If \ trained be becomes an exj horse raiser, and sometimes tr; er. He soon becomes a good jo of cattle in all lines. TI is car cows, though they may be 1 (its him for the management i dairy, and so on through ?ne ; It does not take him long become an export judge of win for be will not sow a grain 1 is not first-class, and he study to know what i. first-o wheat. Wh^n bo has thrashed wheat he will carefully insj ' it for foul seed, bad grains, trash of any kind, lie will gr it before he sells it, and whe goes into market lie will li 1 the satisfaction ui knowing t he has made no mistake in gi\ tlie subject some attention. M a young man lias been called f; the farm to the office of the gi dealer, because of the pains ken while on the farm to prod the best wheat he could poss; raise. | The grain business is a so alty and a very exclusive h]> alty; yet more can ho lear about wh.it it takes to consul the various trades of wheat I careful investigation on the fs than anywhere else. The s? I is true of all other grains, esp ally clover seed. There is crop that farmers raise at which they know so little as clover crop. It is a comparati\ new crop and has always be< > comparatively profitable oue, it has been studied but little. ' microscope reveals many tt ' that cannot be seen by the na eye. Many farmers never t the trouble to investigate so cl ly, but the one who does is r 1 to profit by it. ; Again, it may safely be i that almost all the men euga in the live stock commission b ; ness have been boys on tho fa . It was on the farm they loar ! to bo good judges of fat ca They watched the herd grow, ! velop 'and fatten, with the k< est interest, and naturally beci i exports m mat uno. Aioreo they could select the steor I would feed the best, and the .that would fatten the slow ! Following this up for years t drifted into a love for stock? finally to the yards. Wherever a farmer keeps I account of his receipts and ; penditures, and ever}' far: should, if he teaches his son 1 t to keep these accounts it > plants within the son a habit beinp accurate, and if he sh( go from the country to the t< lie succeeds roadilv. Add the e the habit of boin^ fait! and honest, which a boy learni 'i a farm, and it mav r.m.tilv j soon why ho succeeds in ol I lines of business. , It Suvt s tho Croiipy Chlldn ' Skaviknv, V a.?
