Now is the time to get the boys to-. gether, ready for fall business.'Call big pienies, get a good speaker and organize the farmers all over your counties before you let this man go. Don't ask half a dozen men to speak and cramp them all on time. Give one good man all the time he ants and he can explain Farmers' nion principles to you better than alf a dozen men would do it. Stop farming by main force and letting' someone else price your pro - ducts. Come into the Farmers' Union and pull together for profitable prices. You produce the wealth of the coun and have the first pull at the pro fXs. ~t is just as easy and more right for you to say what your cotton is worth as it is to get someone else to tell you what it is worth. About Cheap Wit. Man.y goed resolutions in farmer;' meetings have been lost by the inter jeetion of a little eheap wit just sim ply for. a laugh. At times we have known men in order to get up a good laugh, they have sprung a good joke that defeated a good move they were at heart in favor of. Such gleeful characters will quit a very important business meeting at almost any stage of its deliberation;, and go o'itside to see a "yellow dog fight.'' Sorre people you have seen have a kind, of propensity for trying to fool 'people by blowing about somnethimg -they are goirng to do. But later on they learn that they have fooled no one fbut themselves. People are not so interested in what Afolks are going to do as they are about t.he things you have already done. PROGEAM.
