COTTON 41 



flourish is that a larger proportion of white people 

 will engage in cotton production. If laBor can be 

 had few town occupations are more profitable. And 

 as for the man who has his own labor, who must have 

 his own children at work, how much better for 

 health, safety and comfort, as well as profit, 

 to have them on the cotton farm instead of in the 

 cotton factory ! 



Already many cotton mills are beginning to suf- 

 fer for labor because the tide is turning back to 

 the farms.
