They may not like to go into the cotton business. and it is not necessary for them to do go. There are a great many people in the South who are going to continue to raise cottonprobably all we nedd to raisebut we have millions of acres of the finest unimproved land in the South. and we need 50.000.000 more people to. develop all our wonderful resources. I simply wanted to. make it known to the balance of the Nation that if prospective emigrants do not care to engage in the productloi of cotton. but want to go South. they Would not be obliged to raise cotton. but could raise corn or almost anything else.
