Farmers' Union Bureau of Informatin -Conducted by the South Carolina Farmers' Educa tional and Co-Operation Union. SWCommunications intended for this department should be addressed to J. C. Stribling, Pendleton, S. C. Sell a few bales of your cotton at, or about, the Farmers' Union min 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 can 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 cents, where our 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 his reputation as an honorable mat bu not standing up square to his just obligations with all men. It does no man any credit to do a shabby deed to get even with his un 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 down. The cotton growers are now the worst cotton bears in our country they are the men that keep 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 Southern cotton growers if they would only come together and pull to save this advancement in cotton for the South. The blind, selfish greed that p)oses seasome men will never allowv them to consider the welfare of their coum.. try at any time.. These men never once realize the fact that the country protects their prop)erty or they eould not po0ssess this selfish grab after they have tak en it for their owvn. A cow that sueks herself is about as good a citizen,, and does about as mucha.towvard:increasing the wealth andf general proseprity of the country, a the. supply man who makes the conditions of his contracts with the farmer in am way that causes the dma~ ping of the cotton crop of the help less mortgaged farmer's on the mark et all in a few months time. Some of these men that furnish thes helpless, improvident and un business-l ike farmers wi th supplies. say that thecy don 't knowv they couhld manage to control thec affairs of their customers in a wvay to hep the cotton farmer in getting profitable prices for, his cotton. But the last one of them know howv to control 'the af fairs of these silly farmers in a way to compel them to turn in their crops 'to themselves at thme choseni tinm, whether prices ar'e profitable or uin profitable to the farmers. ''Every fellow for himself and let the devil take the man that falls behind'' is too often the blind, selfish plans of many men. Oil MIUs are Not Paying Enough for Cotton Seed. Professor J. M. Johnson, of the Unilversity of Georgia, says that $16 per fi is low wvater mark for this ye ton seed crop. Prof. Jo'hnson fin'es that each dollar prt on to thir - l4ng price of seed meanse anm inereas o.. $5,500,000 to the farmers of the south. At presont prices of canthm oil and ,'Besides Assets of th Mutual L4fe" is the 4 ivate fortunes is, by the State L-tw Company. Stockholders, according. in. no.ooo,coo of business in force in 40 Company. It writes all forins of pol ice at end of premium paying peri. oing business in South Carolina. ROB$E G meal the farmer should get at least a $18 for his seed, which amounts to s $5 per ton loss to the farmer on each ton that lie sells for $13, or a loss of a over twenty-five million dollars on the whole crop of the South. This loss oi seed in one seasoi would put upl) enough warehouses to take care of half the cotton crop of the whole South. Our Farmers' Union experiments r last year proved that ground cotton seed paid nearly $25 per tonil under cotton and $19 per tonil under corn. Farmers don't sell your seed for six or eight dollars per ton less than the seed is worth for fertilizer. Far mers must look more n'fter the busi ness side of their farming for their own interest and quit taking the other man's figil'es on everything. Cotton speculators and tile mills will soon get all the weak cotton out of tihe hands of tile unlorgalized Cot -tonl growers. When these conditions prevail the farmier cotton hear become i bull und works right into the hand of the organlized cottoll famer, who has managed to hold his cotton oft the glutted market. Now the Farmers' Union lad much rather have the supply men to join in with them and take care of this weaker class -of cotton growers and keep this profit in our own county where it will lelp everybody. But, it our own people will work with us, we will, of course, take any help that we can get without committing ourselvem with the speculative element. There is not one interest in the whole South that is not benefitted directly or. indirectly When producers o' cottonl rceceive. good profitable prices for their cotton. When there is plenty of money afloat every one can receive some benefit from a live Hier trade. Tribute from Old Comrade. A. J. Livingston was born in what was known as the Dutch Fork on the 22nd of October just sixty-three years ago. He lost his parents early in life and was bound to an old gentleman by the~ name of Henry Werts. He had ser'ved his time out about the commencement of the wvar. He volun teer'ed in Company B, of the 3frd S. C. Rlegimenit. He was a good soldier and did what lie conveived to be his1 duty. He was unpretentious and not fond of highl sounding flattery of men. I remember at the battle of Fred-4 er'icksburiig, when ouri line extended along b)ehinid the rock fence, where it was almost cei'tain death for a man to show himself over the rock wvall, Gener'al Ker'shaw, I think it was, wanted .to send some order ' to an other point on the line, and lie ask ed whto would carry the message. Young Livingston said, ''I will carry1 'it. '' The General looked at him and said. ''Do you thin~k you 'caii carry it ?'' His reply was, ''1 will try."' The Generl'I gave imT the dispatch and said go. Like ani arrow lie shot alonig the works, a target foi' the rifles of hundr'eds of shar'pshiooters. Everyb)ody expected to see him fall, but he seemed to hiave a charmed life, lie wvent and came back safe. The of ficei's and meni eulogized and complt mented him. His reply was, ''Men, I only did my duty.'' His place in rainks was never' empty until lie lost his leg in the battle of the Wilderness on the 6th of May, 1864. When lie wvas carried back to the field infirm ary the surgeonis say that he. wi?s shot through both thighs, thoughit his was a mortal wound( anid left, him 'till lat'e ini tile day, when Dir. Evans passed him anid said, ''How ar'e you by this time, I vin~gston?'' His reply was, ''I amn slighltly disfigured, but still ini thl' +", ' ' H-is cheerfulness touch ed Dri. Evans and lie had him placed on the table and-amputated one leg aind dressed the wound in the othecr. He came home from the war wvith one leg and after the war lie chose for his life partne" M4iss Eliza Raterce, and with one leg and hils Jittle wife lhe s arltced N'e's battle and by dill-* gmne aiid. econeirv they have raised e Company. .ompany. >f California, a guaranteed Safe to L.tw and Charter, derive t 'tates and Territories.
