The dire possi bilities to ttye welfare Qf the Ration by the defeat o/ the De /nociacy this year cap not be /astimated. A defeat will mean Increased tariff robbery through ^he continued protecliou of trusts /ind combines of every nature, J.t will ijpeau the continued op pression of the many for the fruaefitof the few. Jt will fur ?her mean the further perver sion of the fundamental princi ples of our government with the ill most certain alternative of jradicafl and harmful changes in f he conduct of National affairs.

'T,o*>e a member of the Farm firs' Uni^ty is an honor to anyone. /To be a good member is an lion pr to the organization. Every member who does his full duty is u cog in the wheels of prpgi'ess of the Unioft; the drones ^re the rubbish preventing the perfect work of the machinery. Every farmer ought to profit py tlje experience of others, und Jie can't do this unless ho takes ^ome farm paper, The most sue pesstyl farmer is always a read, jng farmer.

TILUIAN SIGHS FOR HOME, And the Hq? and Hominy He Can't Get in Europe. A dispatch from London to The Itfew Yoilc Herald says; Senator Tillman of South Caro lina, who is making his first European tour, likes London very much, though he sighs in vain for the delicacies of the table of "down South." "Young man," said the Sena tor this morning, "if you will only tell me where I can get some real corn meal in this town you will make me }our debtor for life." A friend who was standing near supplied the information and the Senutor was effusive in his thanks. "Well, sir." I've had a hard time to get something to eat over here, You know a man used all his life to our Southern ccoRing just naturally craves for some thing that has corn in it. I don't eat beef and I have the hardest time everywhere.? I've boeu trying to explain what I meant oy breakfast bacon, but as for corn bread and hominy grits, why sir, I baven't been able to find a trace of them any where, so I just thought if I could only find somebody to tell me where I could get some corn meal I would take it to my stop ping place and show the cook how to make a nice yellow pone of corn bread or an ush-cake.

Miss Vey Morgan, daughter of J. L. Morgan, editor of the WaurikH (Okla.) News, was mar ried recently to N. L. Reed, a young business man of that place. The editor, in giving an ac count of the wedding, says; ?'For the first time in our life we havo the privilege of writing tho announcement of the mar riage our own daughter, and we do not havo to write a lot of stuff that we. don't believe about tbo blushing bride, etc. Time can tell whether eit her ono of them is entitled to congratu lations. We only hopo that they may never regret their actions, and if they do they can blair.o themselves, as they have made their choice. They also have our best wishes. Our advice we are not going to offer, because it would not be upceptgd ut what consular ?t wgrth," Poultry Department. It seems to us that our people are woefully behiud in the march of progress in the raising of thoroughbred poultry. The fact that your father and other re mote uncesters wore satisfied to raise scrub chiclceus, and were perfectly satisfied to get fifty or sixty eggs per year per hen, is no excuse for continuing 10 bo a moss baolc. The ideal hen of today is the hen that will give you from 175 to ?00 eggs per annum, and the ideal fowl of the day is the fowl that will give you from two to four pounds more in flesh than was secured from the old dung hill. Our people are now in good shape for the inauguration of this bettor class of poultry, and the farmer who fails to buy a trio or pen, or more of some ap pioved breed this fall is stand ing in his o vn light. Talce the scarcity of uggs this season; talce the scarcity of spring chic Icons. There was no neces sity lor it. The fault lies in the quality of chiclccns bred and 110 improvement can be expected as long as our people are penny wise and pound foolish in their ideas of iinprovmvut in poultry culture. It is well known that wo are almost poultry njad, but it is a righteous madness, and a form of mania which it would pay every farmer and city man to be come iufected with. Well bred horses, cows, hogs, and poultry spell success to any community. This is saying nothing about goats and sheep which industries have a glowing future before them. These remarks are however directed to the poultry industry, leaving the other features of stock industry to another, or ol hor articles. H. 0. COLE. BREEDER OF FINE POULTRY Florence, S. C. 1\ S.
