If our iarmers keep on in their present reckless modo of .cnlti rating and telling the world how much cotton they calculate to make, in less than 25 years the Northern sharpers will control at leaBt two-thirds of the cotton farms of the ISouth. That is the object in view, and it will be successfully accomplished if they are not checked in time. To some this may appear as absurd ; but it will be verified, just as sure as time, Sf our people do pot open .their eyes and rwatchl as well as pray.'1 Five years ago our farmers little . dream ed that by this time the cotton bro kers at ' the North would ' have therii ;, at their mercy. That they liavo them so cannot be denied, and it now rests with our unsuspecting, iliard-working people to get out of tqo.
