visited Mr.. w B. Farmers plantation
short time since on purpose 70 see his
cotton. am convinced thai il il the hea-
west boiled cotton ever saw, either in
Mississippi Or Louisiana; and il shed less
than the strongest lands IN Carroll county
tho Mest Of his land being high and CON
slderably worn. II also has the appear
anro Of commencing 70 boil sooner than
the common cotton, there being bols on
al or nearly all Of The first limbs that
come out. The cotton is known in this
section as the Sugar.loaf Cotton, and the
leaf is smal, which from the shape Of tho
stalk does not expose the negroes to tho
dews il first picking as the common cot
ton. The staple Is good, and believe
better than tho common Mexican cotton.

Having been called on by Mr. W. B
Farmer ID give my opinion with regard L
his Sugar Loaf Cotton, | feel fully justif
cd IN continuing all ills supericrlles as Ger
lifted to by Mr.. Robinson, Mai. Terry
and Dr. Fisher, having passed through
his field some several times during The
sumner, lis stalk has the shape Of the
sugar loai; the leaves are smaller, holls
heavier than any other cotton have ever
seen. II sheds its squares less, as such
stands ihe drough better, The staple and
bears finer than the Mexican cotton. ap.
from the manner ia which i hangs from
tho bolts, would seem 10 be easier gather
cr; aud although he was some . 10 weeks
lalor planting, his crop was open fully as
ua,Iy as mine on the same kind Of land.
