Will you rent a farm for any product of the farm but cotton? Will you furnish supplies for anything but cotton ? | Will you sell fertilizer and "risk getting your money if the buyer I says he will plant no cotton? Can you buy negroes, for you have to buy them if you get them, and make money and not raise cotton?! Can you pay two hundred dollars! for a mule, twenty-five dollars! per ton for fertilizer and buy your supplies and not raise cotton?) Can you find a merchant that will sell supplies to a renter who says he will plant no cotton? Do you know that we have labored for thirty years to ioarn how to grow cotton and have broke the record? Can you find a boy on the farm that is not an expert at raising cotton? Can we niakejnegroes rely on anything but cotton, so long as they rent? Can you not say to the man that would not sell his cotton for ten cents, that he coveted too much ? Will you tell the man who said that he would plant twenty per cent, less cotton this year that his own wife doesn't believe him and he kinder doesn't believe himself? Will you watch the man that is howling so and see if he plants any corn? Will you tell those chaps Mie way to make people believe there is a big cotton crop is to do like he did this time? tell everybody that he had ten bales to the plow in the Ware house, and was not half done picking, and he heard a man say he would make 40 bales to the plow. lie sure to tell him to pick out the best stalk of cotton on his farm next August, bring it to town and tell everybody that is an average stalk and he thinks I he will make two bales to the acre.
