Postmaster Merrick desires to call
attention to the practice of some
patrons of rural delivery of placlne
loose coins in their boxes each time
they desire to dispatch letters in

This practice imposes undue hard

them on the service of their routes.
The postmaster, therefore, Urgent

on hand a supply of stamps consist

rural patrons place in their mail

WHY DON'T. TH? "BLANKETY"
Farmer Sell His Cotton andi Rollovo
the Situation ? - ' ?
(W. T. Dregor, in Cotton Journal.)
The above headlines are certainly
not edifying, but having heard these
words uttered so often since the pan
tc, by parties who do not raise a
pound of cotton, nor have any iuter
est in a bale of cotton, I cannot re*'
slat the temptation of writing a few
> words ip defense of the so-called
blankety farmer who won't sell."
'Tis a pl' y that every one who knows
all, about the cost of producing cot
ton, and the cause of the money
stringency,.can't have .a finger in the
pie when fixing the price of tho raw
material. Of course these same peo
ple always call in the farmer when
they place a price on the goods they
have to offer, and it 1B just and right;
therefore, that they should be allow
ed to fix the price on cotton. J*?st
because the "blankety, farmers" got
together this year and fixed it them
I selves, the whole universe has been
stirred up, and a big panic has been
created. After thie, you "blankety
farmers" who brought on this panic,
when you raise your cotton and get
it ready for the market, call In your
lawyer, your doctor, your merchant,
your banker, your druggist, your lit
tle New York traveling salesman,
your hotel proprietors, and your cot
ton buyers, and they will save you a
lot of trouble and Worry, by fixing
a price that will suit the spinner and
suit themselves. You are not need
ed at all when lt comes to putting
the price on the cotton you raise;
your business is to get out in the
hot sun in July and sweat beads of
sweat as big as snowballs, making
the crop and then turn it over to the
world and let the public at large put
a price on it that will suit them-a
price at which you can pay up all
your debts and break even. Then
the. whole world will smile and slap
you on the back and will no longer
refer to you as the "blankety far
mer," who ls holding his cotton and
causing money panics. You don't
need any automobiles, nor rubber
tired buggies; you can get alone
just as onay on an old mule, and that
will give the fellow who fixed your
price for you the automobile to ride
in. You don't need to educate your
children, you need them in the field
to hoe " id pick your cotton, so the
price won't be so high when selling
time comos. Don't buy your wife a
new rug to place before the bed to
step out on when there is ice in the
water bucket on the back porch, as
that,would be extravagance. If she
wants to go to church on Sunday
hitch a mule to the wagon and put a
chair in for her to sit on, that ls
plenty good enough for a farmer's
wife. That ls as much aa the far
mer should really expect, according
to the people who are cursing bim
to-day for putting 16 cents on his
cotton and then holding lt for that
price.
Now let us look at thin nueation in
another light. Suppose when the
panie came upon UB the farmer had
followed the example of tho panie
Strieker public', * who immediately
threw Its securities, stocks and bonds
on the market, and watched them
go. crashing to the bottom of the pit
-dropping from par down to prac
tically nothing in one day. Where
would the South be to-day. if the
farmer had not listened to the ad
vice of the Cotton Journal end the
Southern Cotton Association and Far
mers' Union?' He, *oo, would hav?
thrown upon the u *f the entire
collateral of ' the So* m, ind part of
the collateral of the North, and cot
ton would have dropped down to 6
cents, In no'time, thereby sweeping
from our grasp the security that the
country is sitting on to-day. Mer
chants would have been little better
than half paid, and would have been
forced to the wall. Southern banks
would have been forced to close their
doors and half of the farmers would
have been ruined to such an extent
that it would have taken years to
recovor the losses, sustained. In
stead of this some of the merchants
and bankers have had to extend
notes that will be paid in 'ne end
with interest, the farmer has eno'igh
at home co live on, and the Soi ch ls
in better condition than any part of
the United States.
As it is far more prudent to get
the entire indebtedness to the mer
chant and the banker liquidated a
few months later, than to have de
pressed the price of our only stand
by, at the beginning of the season,
and thereby caused thousands of
failures all oyer our country. Every
one knows that the king bee of the
speculating element predicted and
even boasted that R cents would be
taken for this crop, .and it 'is rea
sonable to believe that the bears
would have grabbed at an opportu
nity to take advantage of the semi
chaotic state ot money matters in
the country, together with the flood
ing of the cotton 'market to gain
their ends, and make good their
boasts and predictions. For God's
sake open your eyes, you long-faced
knockers, see the situation as it re
ally ls. nnd instead of knocking the
man whom the destiny of the whole
world rests upon, give him your
hand, throw away your hammer,and
If you have to knock, knock the sox
off the true culprit who has brought
about this panic through proposi
tions inflated with hot air and un
sci'upulous manipulations. Join the
smile club, and stand by the farmer,
who ls keeping your banks opulent
with deposits, your stores Ailed with
customers, your hotels filled with
traveling men, nnd keeping the trav
eling men on the road. Statistics
show that out of nearly 12,000 fail
ures In the United States last year
only about 2,000 were in the South.
Compare present conditions with
what they would have boen had thc
cotton crop boen turned loose. In
stead of this, the "blankety farmer"
has saved the South.

Jacob Maurer and his wife, of
Zurich, were described by the Judge
as the "most curious couple in Switz

years.
In 1908 the wife got a divorce, but

wedding breakfast, however, ended
in a fight, but the couple stayed to
