The Founder of the Farmers' Union
la dead.
Newton Gresham, the father of the
Farmers' Educational and Co-opera- ,
tive Union of America, died at his
home at Point, Texas, April 10th.
Newton Gresham is dead but his
work and spirit lives on in the Farmers'
Union, which is already the
greatest farmers' organization that the
world has ever knowD. <
? ' " * ?
In the Farmers' union organ i^awun
Newton Gresham has left to his people,
his family and the Southern farmers
as well an heritage and monument
to his memory that is far greater
than a mint of gold and many statues
in bronze.
His South Carolina Union brethren
mourn his loss, while we bow to the
will of Him who gave him for our
good. Peace be unto his ashes.
Notice.
To the Farmers of South Carolina;
You are hereby called to meet in delegated

The purpose for which the State

secret organization for the purpose of
holding and controlling the price of
, cotton ; also, to encourage the building
of a Farmers' UDion Warehouse
in every county in South Carolina, to
be owned and controlled by farmers.
B. F. Earle,
State Organizer,
Anderson, 8. C.
Farmer?' U nion News.
?This South Carolina Farmers' Union
column is now published in every
Southern State froi;? the Rio Grande to
the James Rivers.
?Texas and Oklahoma papers state
that our Farmers' Union members
now round up more than six hundred
thousand farmers' i.hat belong to the
union. Cheer up, farmers, your organization
is growing very fast in
both numbers and knowledge.

Building Oar Forts While Comparative
Peace is In the Southland
Cotton Market.
In answer to many inquiries from
farmers for the cheapest plan for farmers
to put up their own warehouses,
we are getting together a lot of very
interesting information, as to plans
and cost of a very simple, good and
cheap Farmers' Union warehouse that
most any strong local Union can put
up themselves at comparative small
cost.
Se*d in to our bureau all the information
you have on this subject.
?There seems to be no salvation or
hope for that miserable, simple-mi tided
"all cotton farmer" who absolutely
refuses to heed the warning of the
Farmers' Union about not planting
more food cropB. Nothing in the way
of words seem to affect these slaves of
a ruinous system. They cannot be
made to feel anything of less force
than a rear-end collision with a billy
goat or a hungry cotton mule that
would rorce inem 10 eai iu?ir ixjuhih
from the mantlepiece for about a
week.
?You Farmers' Union man stan<f
up there and pull off your bat, we have
something to tell you tbat will make
you feel proud. Did you ever think
that our South Carolina Farmers'
Union column was now being published
in papers that reach over four hundred
thousand Southern people who
auscribe to these papers? Newspaper
men tell us that is so! This should remind
all who furnish information for
this column tbat we should be very
careful what we say, for thib responsibility
is not only great, but our teachtKJo
o/tiiAQtinnol tinn ohnnlH

be conducted upon a high plane.
?What about that farmer that continues
to drive a nail with a rock, or
old plow, and allows hia wife to do the
same way, when the price of three
drinks of whiskey and a plug of tobacco
would pay for a good claw
hatchet?
It la Dangerous to Neglect a Cold.
How often do we hear it remarked:
"It's only a cold," and a few days
later learn that the man is on his back
with pneumonia. This is of such common
occurrence that a cold, however
slight, should not be disregarded.
Chamberlain.s Cougb|Remedy counteracts
any tendency of a cold to result
in nneumonia. and has trained its
great popularity and extensive sale by
by its prompt cures of this most common
ailment. It always cures and is
pleasant to take. For pale by C. A.
