Stribling, Pendleton, S. C. Sell a few bales of your cotton at, or about, the Farmers' Union minl imum of 11 cents and pay your cred itors all, or at least half, you owe them. But don't glut the market. Better still, where ever you call store. cotton in a good warehouse do - it, and turn these 'ootton certificates over to your creditors and keep all the cotton off the market that it is possi ble to do, if you are not pushed up hard for money don't put a bale of cotton -on the market now and let the price go up to 12 ecents, where our i South Carolina Unions put the price in the outset. But don't for a moment undertake to dodge your creditors or do any dirty tricks in order to save a few dollars. Let no Farmers' Union man sell out I his reputation as an honorable man bu not standing up square to his just, i obligations with all men. It does no man any credit to do a shabby deed to get even with his un- I fair creditors. Two wrongs don't make one right act. The cotton market is pushing up, trying to get above 11 cents, but the cotton farmers keep piling the cot ton on the market every time the price starts upward, and this rushing cot ton on the market holds the price i down. The cotton growers are now the < worst cotton bears in our country-' they are the men that keel) prices from rising by dumping on the cot ton every time the market starts on a rise. The . men that supply the cotton growers and have that amount of cot ton under their control could now do a great big thing for the Southern1 cotton growers if they would only come together and pull to save this *advancement in cotton for the South'. -. The blind, selfish g'reed that p)oses sea s.Qme men will never allow them to consider the wvelfar'e of their count try at any time.. These men nev'er once realize the fact that the country protects their property or they -ep,uld not possesa this selfish grab after they have tak en it for their owvn. A cow that suicks herself is about as good a citizen,. and does about as much toiad. increasing the wealth andgene.rai proseprity of the country, *as-'the, supply man who . makes the. conditions of his conti'acts with the farmer in a way that causes the dume ping of the cotton erop) of the help less mortgaged farmers on the mark et all in a few months time. Some of these men that furnish thes helpless, improvident and un business-like farmers wvith supplies. say that they don 't knowv they coulsl1 manage to control the affairs of theirI - customers in a way to help the cotton farmer in getting profitable prices for. his cotton. But the last one of *them know how to control 'the af fairs of these silly farmers in a way to compel them to turn in their crops *to themselves at the chosen time, whether prices aire profitable or un profitable to the farmers. ''Every fellow for' himself and let the devil take the man that falls behind'' is too often the blind, selfish plhans ot many men. Oil Mills are Not Paying Enough for. Ootton Seed. Professor J. M.

ROBE meal the farmer should get at least 018 for his seed, which amounts to 5 per ton loss to the farmer on encn -on that he sells for $13, or a loss of >ver twenty-five million dollars on le whole crop of the South. This loss oin seed in one seasoin ivould put up enough warehouses to ake care of half the cotton crop of lie whole South. Our Farmers' Union experiments ast year proved that ground cotton -cod paid nearly $25 per ton under -otton and $19 per ton under corn. Farmers don't sell your seed for ;ix or eight dollars per ton less thanl lie seed is worth for fertilizer. Far ners must look more a'fter the busi less side of their farming for their >wn interest and quit taking the other nan's figuies on everything.
