Owing to the low prices for t baco and cotton the farmer is hold - ing his crop in the hope of better prices. This has been advocated in :ill s-idcs and has, no doubt, been to s.)Die exterit the cause for the some what better prices on the. lobsicco market lately. However, there is another side to the question and one that is affect ing every town in the south. What is to happen to the merchant if some part of the crop is n'ot sold and the proceeds turned over to the dealer v-ho has carried the burden of credit all the year? It is" an acknowledged and open fact that the retail merchants are in bad way because they are being hard ly pr'fssed to meet their, bills by the Manufacturer and jobber and are un able to do so until the .'money the farmer owes is paid, either in whole or in part. The farmer will naturally say that if he sells now it will be at a loss or at the best with only a very meagre profit. This undoubtedly is true, but at the same time it must not be for gotten that all people in a comraun ity are interdependent upon each oth er and 0rieiust!.heip the other if-the whole structureVof community wel ......... n fare is maintained. For 'the past several months mer chandise has been on the decline and goods bought ait high prices by the merchant has been sacrificed at a loss, and all this time the merchant has' been furnishing the , credit for Hhe farmer to work and handle his crop. Now comes the time when the far mer can return ihe accommodation by eelliitg" a part of his crop, even though it be at or below the cost of production, and pay his bills so that in turn , the merchant may pay his also and save his, credit, and prob ably himself from ruin. It must. pot be forgotten that the merchant is a very necessary adjunct to the farmers' well-being and these two must work in harmony for the successful operation of any commun ity. Hardly any farmer will gainsay the statement that the merchant as a general rule has been most lenient about the accounts upon his ledger, which are long past due and payable and it is a recognized rule of busi ness that a past due bill is payable and collectable, therefore it is cer tainly not asking too much of their farmer friends to say, "Bill, pay me a little, just a little, no that I, too, may pay a little,' just a little, on my own. jsrerdue accounts." Don't -you see how it works? We all depend upon one another md X now that crucial times are upon us, X - friends lean upon friends and bu3- 1 Insurance rFIRE -.ACCIDENT HEALTH v ' LIFE AUTOMOBILE G.
