This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Soils and Agriculture of the Southern States It was the original intention to limit the area discussed in this volume to the region known as the Cotton Belt. As the work progressed, a number of reasons occurred for increasing the size of the territory included. The soils of the Cotton Belt do not stop at the northern limit of cotton production, but they extend far north of that line. The type of agriculture practiced in the Cotton Belt grades into that practiced in the region to the north without any sharp regional division line. The eastern tobacco belt extends far down into the Cotton Belt, corn is grown through almost the whole of the Belt, as well as in the region to the north, and other staple crops of the more northerly regions are, also, staple crops in many parts of the South.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of Cotton Mills in the South Formerly, a landed aristocracy shut out the average man from economic participation; but with the rise of cotton mills, the poor whites were welcomed back into the service of the South. As a conclusion from my survey I cannot but express the anxiety that through lessons of the old mistake we shall avoid: the new error, insuring that Ian aristocracy of capital shall not now preclude industrial democracy. My purpose has been to describe the birth of the industry in the South rather than its development. In only a small number of instances has this plan been departed from; many topics rich in interest have not been broached. I regret that two books did not come into my hands in time to be used in this study. Holland Thompson's The New South, and George T. Winston's A Builder of the New South (the story of the life work of D. A. Tomp kins), are contributions which will be found valuable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cotton States in the Spring and Summer of 1875 It was my fortune to spend the winter of 1874-75 in Washington, in almost daily attendance upon the debates of Congress, and in more or less intimate friendly relations with many of its leading members, of both parties. The Southern question was, during the whole of the three months session, that which attracted most attention, and was in public and private most earnestly discussed. The Louisiana affair, the Vicksburg riot, the Alabama question, the Arkansas muddle, were all the topics of continual excited conversation in and out of Congress. I was extremely desirous to find a basis of fact on which to found a trustworthy opinion of the condition of the South; but was constantly confused by statements apparently partisan, and, at any rate, unsatisfactory. The leaders of both parties in Congress were, for the most part, no more accurately informed than I; and debate and legislation on Southern affairs during the whole winter were mainly based either upon a general notion that we still live under a Constitution, or upon narrow views of party expediency or necessity. The Democrats for the most part dealt in incoherent and ineffective generalities about violated liberties. Of the Republicans, one faction steadily pressed coercive measures, which in the end failed of adoption; while the other part opposed these measures but weakly, because they had no certain knowledge of the condition of affairs on which they spoke and were asked to legislate. Thus the Habeas Corpus and Force Bill and the Arkansas Message were defeated with great difficulty; the Civil Rights Bill was passed, only to become a dead letter in the South, and a source of annoyance to its supporters in the next Presidential canvass; and the report of the first New Orleans committee, though based on evidence not afterwards controverted, was received with so much doubt that a second committee was thought necessary - to investigate the first. Under these circumstances I accepted gladly an offer from Mr. Bennett to make for him an exploration of the principal Southern States, and see for myself what I had vainly tried to discover by questioning others. My journey began early in March, and ended in July. I visited successively Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, North Carolina, and Georgia; and the results of my observations were printed in letters to the New York Herald. These letters, with some additions and corrections, form the larger part of the present volume. They became, on their publication in the Herald, the subject of a contentious discussion in the journals of both parties. North and South, and, I must confess, had not the good fortune to please partisans anywhere. It was probably inevitable that they should offend those whose preconceived views or whose interests they did not advance, for I sought only for facts, and did not care what side they favored; but it has been a great satisfaction to me to receive many private letters from Southern men, both Republicans and Democrats, acknowledging the correctness of my statements, and the general justice of my views and conclusions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sea-Island and Meade Cotton in the Southeastern States There would be no prospect that an alternate-year plan could succeed unless complete cooperation were assured so that cotton would be eliminated in the Off years. Also, it would be necessary to have the crop system and the marketing worked out, so that farmers would know what other crops to grow in the no-cotton years. More over, a special marketing system would be necessary if a plan of alternate-year production were adopted. A part of the crop would need to be held over, preferably by farmers themselves or by the manufacturers, in order to avoid excessive price fluctuations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on Cotton Production in the United States, Vol. 1: Also Embracing Agricultural and Physico-Geographical Descriptions of the Several Cotton States and of California; Mississippi Valley and Southwestern States In submitting to the public the series of reports on cotton production the editor deems it not unnecessary to explain briefly the causes leading to their present form, and particularly to the great predominance of the special descriptive over the general part. AS originally outlined by ex-superintendent Walker, the report was to embrace, besides the merely statistical matter, a measurably complete discussion of cotton production, not only in the United States, but elsewhere, and in the past as well as in the present, the results themselves being used to indicate the probable movement in the immediate future. In a word, the figures of the returns should be set into a philosophical discussion of the subject matter to which they relate. In regard to the cotton of the South, the field of actual culture should be defined, and within that field the soils treated of, as far as possible, mapped, the methods of culture discussed, the labor system described, and the American cotton botanically considered and compared as to its adaptations to the uses of the manufacturer with the cotton of other countries. So far as might be, it would be agreeable to the general plan that the discussion should outrun the field of actual present cultivation and take up the question as to the regions of the United States to which the culture might profitably be extended. Historical matter might be introduced to the extent that Should appear desirable. Previous official reports and the literature of the subject could be brought under contribution, though the work should in the main consist of fresh, original matter.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Five Cotton States and New York, or Remarks Upon the Social and Economical Aspects of the Southern Political Crisis If such topics as these cannot, in this country, be dis cussed without limitation, and if decisions cannot be reached which should command the assent of all, the hope of maintaining free governments might as well be given up at once, for questions as important and semons must be met in every country; in point of fact, they have been met and discussed for eighty years, with the excitement of discussion not unfrequently at the highest pitch to which the interest felt in such subjects could carry it. We have hitherto passed through these scenes safely, and fully vin dicated our capacity for self-government. So far as the questions involved are concerned, we can do so again. Although Slavery is one of these delicate topics, and in volves questions the most difficult of solution, we do not hesitate to say that there is patriotism, forbearance, intel ligence, and discrimination enough to meet and settle, wisely and well, every question to which that subject can give rise.

Download or read book Cotton Warehouse written by Robert L. Nixon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cotton Warehouse: Storage Facilities Now Available in the South In August, 1914, when it became apparent that the price of cotton would be seriously depressed on account of a'limited demand, it was obvious that there would be an unusual demand for storage space. In order to get data concerning storage facilities in the cotton producing States, a letter of inquiry was sent to all the county agents of the Farmers' Cooperative Demonstration Work in the Southern States. This letter asked for the names of all warehouse companies in the sections where the various agents were located and the storage capacity of the buildings operated by these companies. The agents responded readily to this inquiry, and the results obtained enabled us to form a good idea of the available storage facilities throughout the South. In this connection it should be remembered that an immediate report was requested from the county agents. This made it impossible for them to make a very thorough investigation which would enable them to report all storage houses. Many of the cotton producing counties have no agents, so the number of warehouses reported from this source is further limited. In addition, many of the nonproducing counties in the cotton belt where no agents are stationed have warehouses with a large aggregate storage capacity. Taking all of these facts into consideration it is quite evident that the reports from the county agents necessarily are far short of the actual number of warehouses in the various State's. But these repo1ts are especially valuable as a basis for comparison of conditions between the States where surveys have been made and the States where no such investigations have been conducted.
