A FAMENS1,DJCJ~
CO-0O1AT UNION
OF AMERICA -
Pickens County Union Column
J. T. DOGGS, REV. W. C. SBABORN and
-JOL MILLER, CoInittee in Charge.
I want to say to Farmers'
Union men through the Szw
2IZL-JOUWA, that the Man whd
]has been grading our cotton 'Ws
limited as to time, and couldn't
grade all of it, but It .will be
taken care of at the proper time.
This is the first time the farm
ers have had a man sent by a
big cotton-buyer to grade his
cotton at home, It is worth
something to us to know what
kind and grades of cotton we
have by an expert grader whose
business is to do justice between
man and man.
I see that the New York Opt
ton Exchange sold 200,000 bales
of cotton one day last week at
7@8c V lb. I notice that cotton
mills are stopping evey day
somewhere for the want of cot
ton. Why don't these mills go
to the cotton exchange and buy
some of this cheap cotton? The
mills know they cannot spin
cotton made on paper. This
cotton exchange business re
minds me of a chicken rooster
that gets off a nest and cackles.
Fried or scrambled eggs from
that kind of a nest is worth just
as much to a hungr~y man's
stomach as this cotton bought
from these cotton exchanges
would be worth to the cotton
mills that are out of cotton.
I look upon this cotton gam
bling, price-fixing business as
the most hellish, damnable busN
ness that is in the land to-day.
Why should that kind of cotton
be worth anything? You can,
not make anything out of it.
It is simply paper and wind;
that is all there is of it.
These exchange people look
upon the cotton-growers in the
Southern states as a set of
fools. They are trying to make
them believe that there is sogne
thing behind the throne that is
doing the fixing of the prices
for them, when it is nothing
but a few blood-suckers.. They
stand to the price .of cotton like
a chinch bug does to the human
family--that is, to get his fill
out of the other fellow
Say, brother farmer, are yoig
going to let these blood-suckers
fix the price on your wi~es and
your children's sweat and toil,
and that below productiochl If
you do, then you will prove
nothing but. cowards. I--det
believe you will. L~t us get Ia
gether on this end ot fixintg the
price. Wvhet~e it Is made, where

FEEDING HORSES.
The following is clipped - from
The State, being a part of the
speech recently made by Judge
Henry Hammond, of Augusta
and Beach Island: Judge
Hammond Is recognized as an
expert on the subject of feeding
stock:
"When the farmers of the
South learn to use more of their
cotton products, learn to feed
thoir horses and stock with cot
ton seed products, it will mean
millions of dollars to the South,
part of which every farmer will
save for himself. No report has
ever shown that injury to a
horse has been a result of feed
ing cotton seed meal. Feed it
every day. That's what I do.
It is not a hot or a cold climate
feed. Feed not less than one
pound nor more than three, the
amount to be determined by the
age, size and work of the ani
mal. Not only is it the most
nutritious food but it greatly
aids the digestion and - general
health and good algpearance of
the animal.
"Feed cotton seed meal with
anything ~ you ever hdad of
a horse or mule eating-tcorn,
whole; corn, cracked; ensilage;
bran, etc. Don't stick to any
one food; give a variety. -Change
as the price changes. It is al
ways best to feed ha'rd-working
stock ground (not to, fine)
feed. Cotton seed meal is fed to
best advantage when thorough
ly mixed with the other portion
of the grain part of the ration.
"If .you know what number
of pounds of grain'will maintain
your saninal, reduce this two
pounds for every pound'olineal
you feed -him. To illustrat4
this: If you have been, giving
him 14 pounds of corn, give biui
now only 10 pounds of corn anid
2 pottnds of 'cotton seed mealf
He 'till isoon imptjoye and t
better wk than evet bqfore. "
