in the cotton trade here are all well
aware of this fact, and it is perhaps
scarcely necessary that I should
assure you of it.
I have not thought it neceaeary to
give any statistics of the pretest
stocks of cotton in America and
Europe compared with previous yeara
for you are familiar with the mbject.
The visible supply of the world ia
to-dsy 1,125,000 bales greater than

with acceptance by the tnrchl;

i the law 01 supply and eemancl m its
! relation to values is inexorable. The
cultivation of cotton is the greatest
interest in the South. The price
realized for the crop affects every
business and industry in the South
whose success depends in any degree
upon home support. Unremunerative
prices for cotton mean scarcity of
money, restricted trade, and financial
embarrassment in every branch of
business, throughout the cotton belt.
To secure any marked improvement
in the price of cotton, the chief essen
tia! will be to give the world some
certain assurance that the present
i large stocks will be diminished in
the near future and not again aug
mented by ancther large crop in
1S92.
If such action should be taken at
the South as to induce the belief that
the acreage of the next cotton crop

grave, involving as it does many
interests besiders cotton planting, that
decioed measures seem to me to oe-
impetatively demanded to avert
impending financial disaster to the
South.
A reduction of cotton acreage
cotip'ed with an increased acreage in
gi in would be of such incalculable
ad .'antage to the planters, merchants
and manufacturers, that all should
heartily unite to bring about. 'this
result.
An indefinite agreement to reduce
cotton acreage will not begin to meet
this result.
I beg to suggest that a practical
plan and one almost certain of suc
cessful results would be for the
Factors and Merchants of each place
to agree with each other not to make
advances to any planter upon the
next crop unless upon the positive
understanding that such planter would
plant ten per cent less cotton and
devote the decreased acreage to corn
in addition to his previous acreage in
grain. Then have the planters of
each election precinct form "Ten
per cejnt. Clubs," agreeing with each
other to put 10 per cent less acreage
m cotton ana to put m corn every
acre thus taken from cotton, for the
next season.
w ith only a lair season, a crop
of 8,000,000 bales of cotton can be
crown upon the present acreage. A
reduction of ten per cent would pro
bably reduce the next crop to about
7,200.000 bales or less, and the
markets of the world would be re
heved of the pressure of the immense
stocks.
A larger reduction oi acreage
would not be advisable as it would
tend to stimulate production in other
countries, while a smaller reduction
would rtot be snfficiendy radical to
accomplish the desired result

rectly or indirectly in cotton and have
