We grow cotton not for the fan of it, bat for the profit? in it for us. Now, we have over one million farmers iu our farmers' organization, and we have oome together for the express purpose of saving this profit in cotton growing for the grower. How are you going to do it ? There is but one way and that is to stiok to your selling agents, "The Fanners' Cotton Union." You oau never save your profits by catling a million farm? ers together to do nothing bat howl the calamity howl. Yon now have a fine start in the way of linking the States together for selling yoar cotton, and we are feeling good over the fact that we have some of the pluckiest men you ever saw in the Farmers' Union. They are fighting the thing out to the finish, and are saving money for the growers right along. We have the positive evidenoe in our posses sion to prove the facts that some farmers have saved hy this move from $2 per bale up to $5 in short cotton and as muoh as S26 per bale on long cotton. lt Pay? to Stiok to Your Own Mon. The Farmers' Union oan't make a smart man out of a natural born fool, but they can come aa near doing it as any other organization, if they will only round him ap among the crowd, correl him in and move him along be will count one of his size. Every farmer makes his own rating. The adult farmer is rated not by what he says he is going to do, but by that which he has already done. The young farmer and the novioe in farming may receive respectful hear ing ns to what he intends to do with out criticism. But, young mon, remember this: Don't be nervous about people know ing who is doing well and who is not. Every mother's son of you farmers are at it every day, writing out upon the ground your own reputation and oharaoter, and if you are doing cred itable work others will see it and do your blowing for you without your help. Good farming tools and imple ments are comparatively very obeap and will be ready and on hand for work at any hour, while labor is very high and unavailable. You may have 15 bands to-day, but you cannot count on 5 of them for to-morrow's work until they fall in line at work time. Then don't make a mistake by trying to save on the tools side and paying big wages for very worthless labor. Pay better wages for better men and never pay the best price for poor laborers. Some boys, and men, too, make a big mistake in the difference between smart tricks and mean tricks. All such efforts are abortive as to the original intentions. This kind of cheap stuff fools no ono more than the one who starts out to fool others. In other words, he that gets up these mean tricks to fool others with in these days generally fools himself.

O. or need low any sleep over fears about oom bears ruining your pros pect. You oannot eat, feed or ?ear colton, but corn in the South is al ways legal tender and can be util ized on the farm in many ways or sold to your neighbors. We made an average of seventy bushels and nearly one-half corn per acre last year without using the hand hoe at any time, neither did we thin the corn. It was left in the 'row just as the planter dropped it. Our plans for this year's corn orop on upland is, rows six feet, bills two feet, and land bedded out iu the tall and January. Will plant in water furrow from middle to last of March, if weather permits. Our low bottom lands were bedded out with two-horse plows in January and February, in beds ten feet wide, harrowing top of bed as fast as ploughing goes on. Two rows will be planted on top of this bed in Marah, four feet jpart, hill two feet. Thia will leave six feet between water furrow side and four feet apart on top of bed. Cultivation will be as near this plan as weather will admit. About the time ooru begins to peep ont of the ground the weeder will be run over lengthwise and in from five to seven days run crossways on bottom lauds, but may have to run over twice on upland with the rows be fore orossing on account of covering corn down in the furrow. If the weeder pulls down too mueh dirt in water furrow in the bottom lands we will run out water furrows with large middle burster or double jack to keep drains open. About time crops are half done cultivating then apply standard com plete fetilizers in every other middle on upland, and nitrate of soda at last cultivation in the other middles, and either sow or drill co'1 peas or soja beans in all middles at last plough ing. For fear of missing our seed puns and beans we will drill one row of these between the six-foot corn rows about the time we are half through with the cultivating. We never go more than twice iu a row, and in smooth lands but once. Fertilizers lor Corn. We have referred to fertilizers as though we could not grow corn with out them, but this is not the oase, as many have good lauds that grow paying crops without the use of any fertilizer. If we had to confine our choice to only one side application we would apply nitrato of soda at last cultivation. Our observation and experience with the Williamson method is that planting the crop early and down in the water furrow and the late side application of soluble, fertilizers con tributes more to the success of the Williamson method than the "stunt ing" of the plants.

To overcome tho well-grounded and reasonable objections of the moro intel ligent to th c.USP of secret, medicinal com pounds, Dr. B. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.

Thus ho has taken his numerous patrons and patients Into his full confidence. Thus too ho hos re moved his medicines from among secret nostrums of doubtful merits, and made them Remedies of Known Composition. By this bold stop Dr. Pierce has shown that his formulas are of such exeellonce that he ls not afraid to subject thom to the fullest scrutiny.

"Why a little while ago I saw written on the board, 'find the com mon multifile.' I look for it from cellar to garret, and I wouldn't know the thing if I met it od tbe HI met. What made me quit my job? Last night in big writiu' on the blackboard it said, 'find the greatest common di visor.' Well, I says to myself, both of them darn things are lost now, and I'll be blamed for swipin' 'em, so I'll quit."_ i Epilepsy Fits St?
