Bouthern farmers are complainiog bitterly of the cheapness of cotton and the small returns received from its produoction, They'claim that the price has steadlly decreased for the past five years, and that at the present time, the ocost of ralsing ) and ts the producer. In reply to these complaints the cot- ton factors of 8t Louls have sent ont a circular letter of advice to svathern planters which contains many excellent points. They insist that the only way for the farmors of that section to at- taln Independence and competence is to grow less cotton and pay more at- tention to the ralsing of food producte. After polnting out that the credlc tem, 80 long in vogue in the south, is disastrous to planters and tenants, because 1t forces them to pay extrava- gant prices for supplies, and obligzs them to force their cotton Into the market with such rapidity and in such quantities as send prices, In many lnstances, down below the ocost of produstion, the factors de- clare that over production to the entire situation, Bolleving that it will be to the advantage of the south they advise that farmers devote of cotton, snd value of the pend upon sell and take such prices as they can get. They cannot afford to hold on, @ settlement on the year's trade while the past five years, corn 1s thlirty- three per cent and provisions over fifty per cent above the average. It southern farmers would under- take the raising of thelr own supplies and decrease the produstion of cotton there oan be no doubt that a change would soon be wrought in their condi- tlon. As the tactors well put it in their ciroulars, ‘“‘with the production of envugh provisions on each farm|for domestio use, cotton would become a surplus, and soon the incubus of debt would be lifted from their shoulders, and each year advance them on the high road to prosperity and wealth.” THE statement that the expenses of the national government for the cur- rent year would exceed $300,000,000, including interest, presumes that the pension payments come up to the ap- propriation of $100,000,000. |But not- withstanding the new force of olerks, these payments prroeed slowly and will not exceed $70,000,000, in which case the expenses of the year will be less” than $276,000,000,—how muoh less depends on how near the appro- priations the actual expenditures are.
