Thin is not so great u reduction an some cotton ! men urged, but it i remarkable, nev- j ertheless. There huve been consider- ' able reductions, too, in rue and to bacco, though they are far lean ex pensive. ' And what has been done with the a creu k w i t h 1 1 ru w n from the m ui n crop of the South? More than 0,000, 000 acres have been devoted to the production of foodstuffs. Corn leuds, with a gain of 4,.ri00,000 acres, or 111 per cent over last year. Wheat has gained 10 per cent in planted ur?u, oats '. per cent, hay 5 per cent, sor ghum and cane 10 per cent, potatoes 10 per cent. There have been also increased plantings of cowneas, noy beans, velvet beans, and other less im portant food cropfl. Thus the unfortunate experience of the Cotton lielt with suddenly deflat ed prices is producing results which are impressive this year and may be slill more so hereafter.
