We have done our foll daty trying to keep them f rom losing and holding prices down/ but it seems the more we hollow -'stop" tho faster they go. A large number cf cotton growers all over the cotton, belt-as well no near home-have made ar rangements to take a large percentage of tuia cheap cotton und set it aside in warehouses to await for the pageant march of the fools to pass by. lt will now boto the interest of our better business clues of farmers to let these distressed imbeciles have . all their teams, to urge them up to unload their cotton on the market just a? fast ss possible. If these ninnies are hell bound at ali hazards? v? o approve of sending them along at express speed; HG hurry up there, you dumpers, and got through, and down and out of the jlfrope soon as possible.

Pointed Leiter. Mr. J. C. Stribling-Dear Brother Unionist; I notice you oiler two; prises in last vreek'a paper.

VVh^le successful farming caiis for aa great skill aa is required in any other line, OUe-.hall: tho farmers ere: content, to go ^>.?earA sif^jyear ; with no special guided trusting to their own ignorance Msd .bulkheaded Juck to pull them through. If a farmer, means to suc ceed it is necessary for h^rn to get in touch with bia neighbor and learn ail that he caa. He cannot do things as Ms grandfather , did and be successful. Good farm Journals and the best ma chinery- ave j nsf as essential to success j as good substantial food is to keep up tho ? strength of the body. What would you think of .a farmer in tho spring of th? year gathering up old dry grass tiV feud his stocken to niake a crop? You would say he was a fool." That ia what a great many farmers aro doing iodoy-feeding their minds, on Old dry ideas that our forefathers ad vanced. if farmers would iako good form Journals and read-ttipm, and work ia harmony with their^ neighbors and with the farmers^ organisations they could be the most independent class of people on earth.
