FARMER'S PROBLEMS.
We see in the papers a great de;
about the farmers unions, convei
tions, etc, and their efforts to kee
the price of cotton from declininj
Ii is a great problem, and in solvin
it we have to meet and overcorn
the speculation interests backed b
large financial interests. This c
course can only te done by concei
ted action on the part of all partie
interested, if it can be done at al
There is, however, another prob
em confronting the farmers, if al
most as much concern as the ques
tion of prices. It is the labor con
dition. An investigation sf th<
facts will show that the farmer i:
as dependent upon the negro farn
laborer for the planting, cultivating
ana narvesting of his crop as he is
upon the great financial interests
for the prices he shall receive for it
He is between two mill stones, both
of which are grinding him.
The labor trouble is one largely
contributed to by the farmer himself.
The farmer's conduct and attitude
makes the negro independent
and himself dependent; and furthermore,
his conduct has the tendency
to make a poorer citizen of the negro.
How many farmers are there
who have large sums of money
tied up in negroes, because they
have backed them up in some
devilment, paid their fine or employed
an attorney to defend them?
They seem to think, if they don't
do this, they will have no hands
working upon their farms. The negro
knows this and if Mr. A will not
agree to do this he promptly informs
him that Mr. B across the
way will do it

merchant during the year and give

steps up and pays the amount due,
that ends it What does the negro
think about it? Why, he think3
and says, "If I gits in trouble. Cap
will pay me out."
Now the question arises, who is
to be blamed, the negro or the white ,
man? There is but one answer,?the j
white man. The next question: 1

There usually is a way to rid a community
of such influences.

farmer is to run after anothers

organizations could well consider
The remedy is in the hands of the
farmers. If they fail to apply it
that is their fault and they have no
right to blame others for their condition.

Reports from various sections of
the State indicate that the ravages
of the cotton caterpillar are decidedly
general. The old cotton has
suffered relatively little from its attacks,
but it appears from reports in
many instances that the late cotton
has sustained rather considerable
damage. In its feeding, the caterpillar
eats preferably the young
leaves, buds, and squares of the
cotton.
The eggs are laid on the under
side of the leaves of the cotton, usually
on the larger and lower leaves.
These hatch out into the striped
caterpillars seen so abundantly, and
becoming full grown, "web up,"
forming a chrysalis or cocoon from
which emerges an olive to clayi
yellow colored moth about 1 Vt inches
from Up to tip of wings, with a
leaden colored spot on each fore
wing' The eggs which are overtaken
by frost perish and hence we
find that the bulk of these forms
pass the winter in the chrysalis or
pupal stage. Fall plowing of affected
areas will be of great destructive
damage to the wintering
forms.
The best remedial measure is the
application of Paris green at the
rate of 2 Vi pounds per acre applied
in the drv form in th#? ooi-k. -
9 ?? %?v UiUI U
ing when the foliage is moist A
one inch board, about 6 inches in
width, about 6 inches wider on
each end than the widt|i of the cot"
ton row, and trimmed in the middle
so as to make it easily handled
before a man on a mule is the chief
piece of apparatus needed. A one
or two inch sugar hole should be
bored in either end so as to fit the
rows, and under these should be
tacked an 8 ounce duck bag. The
Paris green can then be poured into
these bags and the opening closed.
If intelligent labor is used, by
experimenting, a jolt on the board
can be determined sufficiently
strong to put out the required 2 to
2% pounds to the acre. Should
this not be the case, it would be
better to use chew?? clo h bi^dilute
the Paris green to about 10
times its volume with land plaster,
flour, or air slacked lima The caterpillars
taking this substance into
their digestive tracts are poisoned
by the arsenic contained in it, and
death follows as the result Paris
green may be obtained from almost
any drug store at about twenty-five
(25 ?) per pound.

taice care oi the Birds.
Sometimes you see a boy or even
a man out with a gun killing birds
as/fast as they appear. This should
be stopped Some birds are the
friend of the fanner and should be
protected Their greatest work is to
destroy insects.
The boys in the family may do a
great good by building bird houses
about the barn, house and shade
trees. The houses should be kept
uut of reach of cats and dogs. Give
sach room G inches of floor space
ind make it 8 inches high. A singe
opening near the top 2 inches in
iiameter should be made for large
)irds, but for small birds such as
he wren a 1-inch door will do.
When I was a small boy I would
rap and kill birds, but I know beter
now, and wish I had known bejre
now.
I have built a great many bird
ouses this year and put up about i
le farm. And the birds build j
ests in thein, too. I used old
oards or planks.
If birds felt that man was a friend
nd not a foe, they would often
iru to him for protection. Think
r the storms, winds and ruins: *
