A
HOLD SPOT COTTON
THE MINIMUM PRICE IS FIFTEEN
CENTS STRAIGHT. ,
Preident II. Harris of the State Farmers'
Union Issues Another Circular
Letter.
President J3. Harris of the State
Farmers' Union has issued another
circular letter urging the farmers to
hold their cotton for 15 cents. The
letter is as follows:
Some sixty days ago wo were told
that cotton was going to eight cents
per pound. Wo were told this by
some of o\ir leading business men
and cotton buyers of our cities and
they did finally scaro some of our
farmers and managed to get them
to sell some at ten cents per pound.
Now let's se.* what it is selling; for:
And the way from twelve to twelve
and one-half cents per pound. Now
it behooves us to investigate the
cause of this rise of ten dollars per
bale. Is it that trade conditions are
so much better, or is it that the
holding of it off of the market is the
cause? Surely the blind man can
,-ee the cause.
According to the best estimate obtainable
the requirements of the
mills thtb year wilt be greato- than
> be supply of acceptable gtnlc* of
:o ton, h -j; -,e there should no fear
of r? surplus l? < iel.>?4* ass tl -< marketing
of the balance of this year's
crop. On the other hand It. Is now
generally considered that after the
shortage of last, year's crop of 4,500,000
bales that the world would
need a big crop this year to supply
the demand.
A bumper crop can not be expected
this year because the acreage has
been reduced and tho crop Is a poor
si and. exceslve rains in the west and
the latenest of the season and a dozen
other unfavorable conditions. It
is impossible that a large crop can
be made with these conditions and
so there is no need to fear the alarm
ing predictions of tho cotton buyers
and their allies that cotton can not
go higher.
I want to tell you that the very
thing that has advanced it ten dollars
a bale in the last thirty days
will still if applied make it bring ilie
minimum price 15 ccntB. Now what
Is tho remedy?
Hold, hold, hold, spot cotton and
always remember futures cannot be
spun. Spot cotton is selling right
here in South Carolina, for the same
price Bpots are selling for in New
York ami wo all know it takes about
one cent per pound to carry cotton
to New York and sell it. This shows
the conditions at home needs it for
the mills. This should stimulate
every holder of spot cotton to hold
for the minimum price. It is not
too late to plant corn. You can
plant up to the tenth of July, plant
an early variety, manure and work
well. It will handsomely pay you
for your work. Corn is now selling
for $1.10 cash per bushel and $1.35
on time. Remember well filled corn
cribs and smoke-houses will always
make cotton bring the minimum
price fired by the producer, the only
one who has a right to put a price
upon his product.

HYDROPHOltlA.
Symptoms of the Deadly Disease as
it Attacks Dogs.
As dog days will soon he on us it
well for everyone to he very careful
in handling and playing with dogs.
Hydrophobia is a much to he
dreaded disease. It is the result of
a specific poison, and produces a
certain train c?f symptoms usually
'iid 1 i\n in death.
Dors are often thought to have
the rallies when tliey are merely
slightly affected by the sun.
The disease is slow and. a dog
never looks wiser than when he is
beginning to go mad?mind and
body are struggling for mastery.
The symptoms of furious rallies are
as follows:
Nervousness and restlessness to a
marked degree; refuses solid food;
refuses water; desire to abide in
dark places; uncontroiable restlessness.
A dog does not foam at the
mouth if ho has furious rabies, as
foam can only lie produced by
healthy saliva, as when chewing a
bone or running at great speed. In
hydrophobia the tongue becomes
very dry. the larynx inflamed and
swollen and the poor beast emits a
hoarse, peculiar bark in his agony.
In dumb rabies the dog foams at
the mouth and generally becomes
paralyzed. There is not the desire
to bite as in the other form.
No man, or woman or child can
ise too much precaution in the
handling of dogs?-pets or otherwise.
A lady was mending a tear in her
dress caused by the teeth of her pet
dog, not suspected of being rabid.
She merely bit off the thread from
which she contracted hydrophobia.
r 11 another case a gentlemen was
reclining on the sofa when his dog
affectionately licked his cheek. In
ti short while a small abrasion on
his face began to tingle and smart?
he dread disease had set in.

THE AMERICAN FARMER.
The Man Who Tills (he Soil Has
Come Into His Own at l<nst.
If the American farmer went out
of business this year he coulil clean
up thirty billion dollais. And he
would have to sell hs farm on credit;
for there is not enough money in
the whole world to pay him half his
price.
Talk of the money-niad trusts!
They might have reason to be mad
if they owned the farms, instead of
their watered stock. When we remember
that the American farmer
earns enough in seventeen days to
buy out the Standard Oil. and enough
In fifty days to wipe Carnegie ??.d
the steel trust off the Industrial
map, the story of the trusts seems
like "the short and simple annuls of
the poor."
One American harvest would buy
the kingdom of Belgium, king and
all; two would buy Italy; three
would buy Austria-Hungary. and
five at a snot cash price, would take
Rursia from the czar.
Talk about swollen fortunes! With
the setting of every sun the money
box of the American farmer bulg??with
the weight of twenty-four new
imaginations can conceive of such
a torrent of wealth.
Place your fingers on the pulse of
your wrist, and count the heartbeats,
one, two, three, four. With every
four of those quick throbs, day and
night a thousand dollars clatters into
the gold-bin of the American farmer.
How Incomprehensible it. would
seem to Pericles, who saw Greece io
her Golden Age. If he could knowthat
the yearly revenue of this country
is now no more than one day's
pay for the men who till the soil of
this infant republic.
Or, how it would amaze a resurrected
Christopher Columbus if he were
told fhat the revenue of Spain and
Portugal are not nearly as much as
the earnings of the American's farmers'
hen!
Merely the crumbs that drop from
the farmer's table (otherwise known
as agricultural exports) have brought
him to enough in foreign money
since 1892 to enable him, if he wished,
to settle the railroad problem
once for all by buying every foot of
railroad In the United States.
Such is our New Farmer?a man
Cor whom there is no name in any
language. He is far above the farmer
of the story-books is a IPO.%
touring car is above a jinriikisha.
Instead of being an ignorant hoemun
in a barnyard world, ho gets the
news by daily mail and telephone,
and incidentally publishes 800 trade
journals of his own. Instead of being
a moneyless peasant, he pays
the interest 011 the mortgage with
the earnings of a week, Kven this
is less of an expense than it seems
for ho borrows money from himself,
out of his own bank, and spends
the bulk of the tax money around
his own properties.
Farming for h business, not for
a living?this is the motive of the
new farmer. He s a coinmerciulist
a man of the twentieth century, lie
works as hard as the old farmer
did. but iu a higher way. He uses
the four M's?mind, money, machinery
and muscle; but as little of the
latter as possible.
Neither is he a Robinson Crusoe
of the -soil, as the old farmer was.
Ills hermit day^ are over; he is a
man among men. The railway, the
trolley, the automobile, and the top
buggy have transformed him into
a suburbanite. In fact his business
has become so complex and n> invsided
that he touches civilization at
more points and lives a larger life
than if he were one of the atoms of
a crowded city.
All American farmers, of course.
are not of tho new variety. The country
is fike the city, has its slums.
Hut after having made allowance
for exceptions, it is still true that
the United States is the native land
of tho new farmer, lie is the most
typical human product that this
country has produced, and the most
important, for, in spite of his eguLlstical
cites, the United States is still
a farm based nation.?Herbert N.

This world is none the poorer for

The Power of Bryan.
The Charleston Evening Post
says:
"And there is North Carolina in
the Bryan column, after all the
boasts of the opposition that the
State would have nothing to do
with the Nehraskan. And Senator
Simmons, who is the chief anti-Bryanite
among the Tarheels, had to
run the gauntlet of the convention
in order to get a place on the instructed
delegation to Irenver. The
Charlotte Observer was prepared
for this before some others. A week
before the State convention met in
Charlotte, The Observer, predicting
a declaration for Bryan, said: "Since
Wnrt b ('ornlino non rtr?t etirinrr
V?? V/M* VMM HWV OTT1II HIC
Bryan owned party, the Bryan-owned
party will be likely to swing
North Carolina. The convention in
this State comes even later than
Virginia's and events elsewhere
have likewise almost predetermined
its action, Emancipation of the
national party has been visibly deferred.
Why should a few States
burden themselves with the future?
North Carolina being human, will
presumably get on the band wagon |
as a matter of course." It got on-all
right, bnt why all this talk about
the "Bryan owned" party? Who
gave Mr. Bryan title to the party?
Certainly he did not go into the political
market and buy the Democracy.
"Why not be fair to the party
and to Mr. Bryan, too, by admitting
I
that the Nebraskan has fairly won
the nomination which will be his by
acclamation at Denver. He has no
Federal patronage, he has no great *
campaign fund, he is not a rich 1"
man, although he is very comforta- '
bly provided for. Whence comes 1
his supremacy in the party except f
through the power of an idea? The r
idea may not be particularly attrac- '
tive to old fashioned Democrats. *
We confess that we have never been t
under its spell. But its presence <
and force is not to be denied. It is ?
a reul, living factor. Mr. Bryan is I
more of an evangelist than a states- t
man, and the American reopie are <
more inclined at the present time to 1
evangelism than to statecraft. Perhaps
it is wisely ordained that a na- i
tion shall pass through periods of t
elation, when the heart rules rather
than the head, and this may be one
of those periods, and Mr. Bryan the
interpreter of its emotion. The period
of practical, constructive statesmanship
will come later, when those
of us who understand only "safe and
sane" methods in government will
be at home again, and Mr. Bryan
will be a saint in the political calendar.
But there is no question that
the transcendentalism of Mr. Bryan
has a powerful hold upon the minds
of the people today, and it is useless
to rail against it all and to abuse Mr.
Bryan as a slave driver of Democracy.
"Mr. Bryan has persisted as the
central figure of the Democratic
party and one of the three or four
commanding personalities of the
country for twelve years, through
two defeats of his own and one period
of essay by those in opposition i
to him to assert and illustrate itself
as the dominant element of Democracy.
It is time to put aside preju- i
dices to forget predispositions and
to recognize conditions that are. i
Mr. Bryan is a great figure and a
vital force in the politics of this
country, and ho is the established
leader of the Democratic party And
he will be the next President of the
United States."
The Cotton Crop.
The influence of the cotton crop
of America upon the world's commerce
does not decline. On the
contrary, every year it becomes i
more manifest. The production of
cotton is studied with grtatcr care
every year. Ihe different experi
ment stations and the government
bureau at Washington are now able
to state conclusions based on experiments
which are of great value to
the cotton planter. At this time the
chief interest seems to center in the
seed selection and in the better treatment
of the soil. The correspondents
of Home and Farm will have 1
much to say of interest on these .
points. The insect enemies of the
cotton plant are best met in the se- 1
lection of the seed and in the prepa- J
ration of < he soil and in the early
development of the plant. The
early cotton escapes the boll weevil
to a large extent.
In a recent bulletin published by
the Agiicnltural Department at i
Washington it is said the expense
for picking the cotton is the largest
item in the cost oj production. The.
entire crop is picked by har d, just
as in the beginning. i
One man with modern machinery
can cultivate thirty acres, hut it requires
four pickers to gather the
crop as rapidly as is neces&arv to
prevent loss.
It isestimated that one and a half
million persons working four months
are needed to gather a crop the size
of that grown in 11)07.
Let us remember that the grain
crops are now harvested by machin- i
cry and consider what a revolution
would be wrought if we had a cotton
harvester equal to the grain
harvesters of the North.
Great improvements have been
made in the ginning of cotton, and
some improvements have been made
in the bailintr of cotton, but there
is room for improvement on both
accounts still.
Further, there is room for improvement
in marketing the crop.
Farmers cannot control the railroads
either in price or in waste or !
injury to cotton in transit, but the '
farmer of the Southern States '
should consider the cost of carrying
the cotton to the railroad sta "
tion. They do not not count this
work as costing them anything, but
it is a serious mistake. As it stands,
the estimate is that it costs SO cents j
to get a bale of cotton hauled to the
rail-road station. This expense (
ought to be reduced one-half by the
improvement of the county roads.
With good roads they could haul !
twice as much with the same expenditure
of labor?man labor and
mule labor.
The cost of marketing the crop,
taking the average from different
railroad station of America to Liv
orpool is $3.60 a bale of pounds.
In other words, it costs nearly onefourth
as much to carry the cotton
, to the railroad station as it does to
; got the cotton from th? railroad
! station to the Liverpool market.?

The last five cotton crops, the o

Persons that talk and write of

Previously to 1S70 the seed was 1

one of the great industries of c
the country. We consume vast "
quantities of it as salad anil cooking 11

most gaatifying results, we ship it r
