The farmer that is wise will not let
the f ancv nrices paid tor cotton the
past season, caase him to over do the
thing the coming season. If your to
baco barns are built and fitted, and
you have no expense in saving and cur
lug your crop of tobacco, it will be de
cidedly the wise plan to cultivate both
tobacco and cotton, The farmer who
cultivates both will surely have good
prices with one or the other crop. The
prices of cotton are as uncertain as the
weather. Louisburg Times. These are
our sentiments exactly and we publish
the above with the hopes that they may
do good.
