That bright fool that ii in your Union who sold his own crop of cot ton for future delivery and keeps at it trying to persuade others to do the same ununion act, should be backed up ag.inst the business end of his first cousins, the long-eared ass, where lie will receive the grand bounce out of the UAiou and land into some future society that carries its brains in the opposite end from where good Farmers' Union members carry theirs. Remember this, that a large por tion of cotton-growers that are yet outside of the Union, watch the mill. imum prices set by the Union as close as Union men do, but aomehowv or otber they do not possess the re qiuisite amount of grit, pluck and fairness to come into the Union vet. About the fifth of 8eptember you will hir the minimlOm price on cot ton, then heave for it, altogether. FARMERS, "GET THERFE." Now, let me implore you to go al once to digging and throwing u. your fortifications so that you car hold your positions against the on slaught of all the cotton bears or earth. I mean this as an illustration t( ehow you the importance of sowing v large crop of small grain this fall tc fortify yourselves against the possi bility of being forced to sell your cot ton next year at cotton-bear prices t( pay for the stock food that you may raise at home by starting now t( do it. 'Take a common fertilizer drill ot eotton-planter and drill in from two to three rows of oats between cotton rows just behind the cotton-pickerp at the. first picking. This machine will open out the furrow and put in the seed all at one time going and 3, ave the open furrow in just the ideal condition to stand the winter freeze. Farmers' Union objects are, first, how to put more business in your farming and, second, how to put more* brasins in your work. These principles applied to farming properly will do wonders in tbe way of making fine crops, but your prlof. its just here are in uncertain status if you allow others to name the price for your products. There is in most men a kind of disposition to take all that the other fellow will allow, a; d the pro fits in your ye ar's labor have gone to others whbo have neitI er opeut a day's labor or a (dime to pr. - duce the crop. Just here is the strong position of the Farmers' Union whose obijets -are to combine their interests in a way to control or place a fair price on their own products, and they have been very successful in doing this during the last three years. This principle is the right thing to do, and so long as we stand by these rules we are going to continue to be successful. of Kidney or Bladder Disea aedicine. No medicine can do Company,*Pickens, Parken's Pharmi TOO MUCH SPEAKING. at We are in need of a little reform and forethought in these public meet ings in two ways. In order to make a I sure of entertaining the crowd and 8 fencing against an accident by some speaker not showing up we overload P the meetings sonietimles by about e double the number of speakers that is needed, and constquently the peo plo become worn out and disgusted with the whole lot of speakers and F< the cause for which the people were ru called together to discuss. be We have known some men to get W4 up and talk one and a half hours re- tl peating about the same thing over a and over again. while about half a P( dozen speakers, and the people, too, are waiting on him to get through. M The remedy for this is to start in time and be sure to get men that ht k low something about the subject to Be be discussed and above all to know bi how to condense their ideas and stop b at the right place. When you get the " right man remeitber that this man th p iym his own expenses, and if he is not worth this to you don't get him, K but get another man that is worth mr his rare and you pay it. 1uf TEN YEARS IN IHED. dC Tor ten years I was conifined to my th bed with diseaso of my kidneys," writcs to R.

I consulted the very besti medical skill atvailable, but could get no a BI relief until Foley's Kidney Cure was i W recommended to me. It has been a God- ic Bean tome." 15 Cent Cotton Below Cost of Pro- 0 ductlon The price of cotton is practically set by the Union again, at less than the cost of production, or for less than it was when it brought 6 cents per pound. N. B.-Mules are 125 per cent up, la. d bor considering quality 150 per cent up, S land 350 per cent up, insurance 50 per O cent up, everything else required to grow and gather a cotton crop are about gi in proportion to the above pe cent, and th cotton only up 117 per cent. Farmers cant you see that you are still making a cotton for less than 6 cents per pound. W Who will be able to staud? I do not P hesitate to answer the question. The di negro will always stand so long as the w4 white man has anything; the man who works his family even his women folks out fu the broiling sun shine and denies them everything saive the bare necessi ties of life. It will not be the man whoip is in debt for his farm, it will not be the I man who feeds, clothes and educates this a family like othersi do, it will not be the 20 farmer wvho spends his money like a white m mn and drinks Bourbon whiskey to like others do. There are limited ex- wi ceptionis to the above. Being as money is cheap, why make only cotton cheap with it, the South's It oily hope? Mr. Union, keep your cot-. ton cheap with money and money will react and then wihere will you and your wy Union be?I Talik about John Calvin and John' bi Knox fighting together like the jaws of'n a wild beast to devour the human family, a whlat is the Uotton Growers' Association S Rickets. * Simply the visible sign *are not forming rapidly en S Lack of nourishment is Scott's EmuLsion *entire system.

Congressman Aiken's Appeal. Abboville, S. C., Sep. 7. 1907. Dear Sir:-Under the ruling of the )urth Assistant Postmaster General, ral routes that are not appreciated will discontinued or changed into tri seklies. Appreciation, as defined by at office, means that the people who a served should subscribe to newspa. )rs and increase the volume of busi as, see that roads are kept in good con tion, and PUT UP APPROVED AIL BOXES. . One of the strongest arguments that Ls been advanced in flvor of the rural rvice, is thAt it induces more reading, oadens the individual's knowledge and tter fits him as a citizen aind as a busi ass wan to protect his interests.
