There is Running in It.
If we fanners don't run the specula
tor out he will keep on running the
farmer in the hole.
If cotton farmers don't come together
and agree upon terms as to how much
we are willing to pay for handling our
cotton until it is distributed among
consumers of cotton, then the same
old gang of speculators will continue to
do this job for us and name their own
price for it, and collect just about all
they may want for this job.
Who is to Blame for It?
If farmers do not come together in
the farmers' organizations and try to
protect their own interest, in their own
way, then it is char that all that class
of farmers that refuse to organize is
the real obstacles in the way of build
ing up a strong combination of farm
ers with sufficient strength to down
any and all combination against our
common interests as farmers.
If you have joined in with the Farm
ers' Union and done your best to up
hold our common interest in obtaining
profitable prices for our products, then
you will feel good over this matter
whether you have all wo wish to do or
not, for there is great comfort in know
ing that you have done your duty.
Dr. Mason, of Charlotte, seeks in
formation through our Farmer.,' Union
Bureau, and he gets what ho wants,
which is encouraging in our work.
These letters of Dr. Mason and Mr.
Brabham are right along in tho pro
gressive path that leads to a syst? m of
diversification of crops and tho im
provements of our lands that we must
practice in order to fortify our posi
tions as farmers to protect our inter
est, which rests largely in profitable
prices for our cotton:
Mr. J. C. Stribbling, Pendlcton, S. C.
Dear Sir: In " The Suite" some time
ago I noticed where some one had or
iginated a variety of cow pea so that
it had the desirable q tality of giving a
large yield of peas, at tho same time
did not shed its leaves. Will you be
kind enough to ask if he will not pub
lish in your "Farmers' Union Bureau"
how he developed thi | .. so that 'ti -
ers may do likewise. The reason 1 ask
this is because the writer id* tho article
stated at the time that he had no seed
for sale.
Very truly,
K. F. Mason, M. D.
We would like to hear more from this
man about these peas; this is in the lino
of our work.
J. C. Stribbling,
Chairman Committee.
Answer to Dr. Alason's Inquiry.
Col. J. C. Stribbling, Pendleton, S. C.
Dear Col: Dr. R. F. Mason wishes to
know something of the hybrid peas that
do not shed their leaves. He or any
?one can have just such a pea on their
?own farm if they will follow siin; l< :
lections to wit: Take equal parts of
?Jittle iron, the hardest pea known, and
the old-fashioned speckle or shinney,
mix, and plant in a patch to themselves
?can be planted any time from April 1
to July 15. Save seed from this patch
and plant again. Iij, three or four year
you will have the hybrid. In that time
the shinnoy will bo as hard as the little
iron, and the little iron, 1 can a
you will not be any softer than when
you first begun the experiment.
When the hybrid has been formed,
the vines will be more luxuriant than
the plants, and will grow and thrive on '
"land too poor to sprout cow peas," \
but of course they will grow bettor on ?
Jand that will sprout cow pea
The hybrid will not blight and is not]
later than the shinney. For hay it is
ahead of any pea known, but for early
pastures there arc other better pcasv
Getting a hybrid pea is easy enough.
Nothing on the farm will < ross easier,
except melons. Getting a perfect hy
brid cotton is a vexing and laborious
undertaking. However, 1 think such a
thing possible. Plant breeding
of the great questions cd' the da; and
it is wonderful possibilities.
Yours very truly,
A. W. Brabham,

This is pleasant reading?an extract
from a letter received:
I have read the newspaper clipping
which you inclosed, with much interest
.and agree with you most heartily that
we have got to teach our farmers the
importance of ra ising their supplies and
improving their soil without going to
such a heavy expense In buying fertil
izers.
As you know, I have been working
very hard alone, the same line you are
in, trying to organize the farmers and
to get concert of act ion on their pan,
to try to get a fair price for any pro
.duct which they may have for Bale. So
far as I can see, I don't think it make,-,
so much difference whether this is a< -
complished by the Farmers' Union or
Southern Cotton Association, what we
arc trying to do, is to improve the con
dition of our country, and I bid God'a
speed to any organization that is gottoil
out on a high plane with this in view.
t*f ever I can serve you in any way In
the fv'turo, please do not hesitate to
call upon me and 1 will do so with pleas
ure.
Very respectfully yours,
F. H. Hyatt, Treasurer South Carolina.

! DESCRIPTION OF A j
1 CHINESE PUNEttAL
:P By Rev. S. C. Todd, Aincao, Chin.i. ;
* * ** * M r*# *t ft -ft ft ft v| i ft-ft ft * ft ft ft-ft ftft*
Some one has well said that the Chi
nese consider being well buried the
most important event in life. It is a
fact that the people groan under debt
contracted either i'or burial or marriage
expenses.
Near us is a large houso, with a spa
cious flower garden aj, the back, owned
by a Chinese lottery. Thia gambling
institution sells chances on the success
ful candidates at the literary examina
tions. The house Is rented from time
to time to rieh Chinese for either wed
ding or burial festivities. Last year
the funeral of one of the wives of a
wealthy Chinese gentleman was held
from there. Being within a stone's
throw of us we had opportunity to see
the affair at its best.
Our attention was called first to it by
the continual beating of gongs. Sleep
to some of us was impossible; the con
tinual noise; the deep-toned sounds
jarred terribly on t ired nerves. Next
day servants frequently passed hearing
paper figures in many shapes, such as
the stork, devils, women-servants, etc.
The gathering crowds on the morning
of the funeral told of the importance of
the day. The small boy with unkempt I
hair and ward-robe not too elaborate I
was much in evidence. He is a prime j
factor in funeral processions, for it isj
he who carries the lanterns, the ban
ner.-? and other paraphernalia. Women
bearing varied and sundry ornaments
were on every hand; here and there
were Buddhist priests with their closely
shaven head* and flowing robes; while
the street was lmed with open stands
made of King Fisher i'>ir<! Feathers, an
indispensable adjunct in a funeral pro
cession.
No doubt the family heart beat with
prido over such an important day, for
did not all this stir set forth in vivid
picture their wealth and importance!
To be sure a woman is dead and custom ;
doe ? not dc#roe that she shall be sig
nally honored, but Chinese bke other
people aro sometimes bettor than their
customs, and in thia instant j a hui '.'and
!.? heaping horrors upon his wife.
By the doorway stands n bamboo pole
some twenty feet high which is topped
with a large paper stork, upon whose
wings the spirit of the deceased is sup
posed to have taken its departure.?
Over the doora are s uspended two large
white globular lanterns with large char
acters in blue, these colors being the
mourning emblems in China. On the I
wall are pasted large sheets of paper,
which tell of the: deceased, d< scribe the
route her spirit has taken and warn the
people not to cross nor path Ic st disas
ter come to them.
Standing in the street one can see
men and women in coarse sack-cloth
moving hither and thither within the
house, while amongst the crowd in to bo
seen a servant woman with one of the
jittlc ones astride her back, the little
mite garbed in cap and coat of the
same.
in questions of mourning the Chinese
are past masters. The deepest i ; sack
cloth, which, after seven days is dis
carded for "White. White shoes and
while robes are worn, while a white
halten adorns the cap instead of the
proverbial red one and a string of white
is braided into the queue. Blue is still |
a lighter mourning, there i.; a blue but-'
ton for the cap, blue shoes and blue ap- j
pears in the queue, while the ear-rings
of the women are of the same color. i
A son mourns fur a parent for three
years, during which no xilk can be I
worn, and if ho i; an official he must
resign and retire to private lif??. Upon
the death of a Sovel iign \ho whole na- j
tion goes into mourning for a hundred i
days and during that time no one can
be shaven and all go unkempt.
The hour for the procei ion has ar
rived. A long lino i:: formed, while or:
either sub the crowd is dense, being
held back by the police. Heading the j
procet-si.su are large lanterns inscribed j
with the family namo, borne by small j
boy -. Other dirty stroot arabs follow i
bearing upright red boards, which carry!
inscription.-: describing family virtues,'
men on small ponies ride in rangl'' file; j
others carry large ba mi rs, w! ich are
embroidered with the d i eas I's name
in largo velvet characters, while quota
tions from the claseica are worked into
the top folds. A dozon or more up- ]
right stands follow, each borne by four!
men or women, these are of open work
and have many figures done in King!
Fisher Bird Feathers, describing Chi
nese life and scenes. Their bases are
left open being used as receptacles fov \
foods and other oft'erh , ?. to the do- j
parted. Often you will see in these a j
roasted pig, with a rod paper star:
stuck in its fore-head, in another will
bo a complete meal; other:) carry or
anges and various kinds of fruit. In j
one procession 1 rj?w a pyramid of or
anges with u paper man standing on
iho top. These foods are in some way
supposed to be transferred to the spirit
world where thd departed \sill have'
need of them. Then came Buddhist1
priests, friends carrying lighted incense
sticks, while numbers of ( hineso ofli-!
cinls followed In their flowing robes,
beaded necklaces and tassel led cap.-.
The mourners In sack-cloth followed the
coflinj thoy walked beside an empty
sedan chair, to the hack of which was!
suspended a large picturo of the de
ceased, while the vacant seat incense is
bU) ning.
Was there noise? That goes, without
Buying, otherwise it would not. bo a pro
per funeral. i''cn near the head of the
procession arc blowing shrill flageolets
and the Portuguese military band, em
ployed specially for tho occasion, brings
up the rear.
What a contrast a Christies i burial Is
to tho Christian! Oh that they might
know the true Saviour and His pres
ence that hallow, in such hour.:!

Farm Boys' Ambitions.
Many farmers have sons who wish to
ongago in manufacturing industry.?
First of all let thorn bo equipped with a
good English education as a foundation,
and upon this foundation technical
skill and scientific knowledge should be
grafted. Even if the sons desire to
follow tho vocation of their father and
be tillers of the soil, they should pre
pare themselves for their calling by at
tending some good agricultural college
where the secrets of nature are inves
tigated and where those laws that lead
to success are taught by precept and
illustrated by example. It is a rare
thing now for ignorant farmers to suc
ceed. Long practice in certain lines, it
is true, may give them valuable exper
ience, but in tho march of the new
agriculture old practices are more and
more discarded, and new methods of
fertilization, rotation and cultivation
are adopted. The time was when the
yield of one hale of cotton to the acre
was considered a maximum product,
but intensive farming has shown that
three bales to the acre is a possibility.
All boys who expect to farm should
gather up tho new ideas that have beon
evolved by the experimentation at the
agricultural college. How to fertilize
land for special crops, how to inoculate
the soil with nitrogen-yielding bacteria,
how to tako care of tho various crops,
how to manage the dairy so as to se
cure the most profitable results, how to
feed slock so as to get the largest pro.
lit from the food fed, what soils are
best adapted to each crop ?all these
i are matters that should be taught im
agricultural colleges and are taught.
But tho technique of the farm must be j
1< arned. How to do things is more im
portant than to know the results of]
certain methods. A young man may
be richly endowed with all theoretical
kwnoledgc, yet if he does not know how
to use it practically it is of but little use
to him. Teaching one how to do things
is what technology means, whether it is
applied to the foundry, the workshop,
the cotton mill or to agriculture. "The
systematic study of tools, processes and I
material is the essential feature of|
manual training." Manual training
h uld precede technical education. It
prepares the student for higher and
more scientific works, il develops skill
and the ready adjustment of materials
for specific purposes, but it is not
technical training. The latter applu
science to art, it joins theory to prac
tice, it regulates causes to the effects
sought to be produced.- Col. J. B. Kil
lebrew in Southern Farm Magazine of
Baltimore for April.

A SERVANT PROBLEM.
Why the i.mi} of the House Wai
Hcmly to Call a Hull,
A lady recently called at the house
of u friend, who answered hi person"
the ring at tho door. With careworn*
expression nod Hurried manner she
apologized for the confusion that ap-.
pnreutly reigned lu the house, saying:
".My parlor maid is upstairs ill?uot
HI enough to go to the hospital, too ill
to work, loo far from homo to go there,
yet needing attention from me. My
waitress is having u lit of the sulkB, and
I have sent her out to do an errand and
get some fresh tilr. Tho cook Is Just
-now not on speaking terms with her
husband, tho ?onchman, and Is seeking
a divorce, so that one or tho other must
go. Tho footman came home drunk
last ulgbt ami had to he discharged
this morning. My house Is at sixes
and sevens, my husband lunched down
town, my mother hau taken the chil
dren and the nursery maid homo will?
her, guests arrive this evening, and I
have spent tho day in a vain search for
help in the house. I belong to a club
studying household economics and
have allowed it to turn a searchlight
on all my household affairs In the In
terests of society at large. I am now
ready to call a halt, to refuse to have
my domestic arrangements considered
u hunting ground for theorists, to pro
nounce all such clubs vain mockeries,
.snares and delusions, inventions of the
enemy for squandering time and show
ing l?o hitter contrast between ob
Btract theory and concreto reality. Tho
only club I am Interested in must pro
vide on tap maids who never get 111 or
sulky, cooks without a temper and
coachmen and footmen of unimpeach

U was not till Marlowe adopted It In
his play of "Tnmburlalno tho Croat"

THE DOG'S COLD NOSE.

?look of Nonli'n Ark.
'The true story of the dog's eol 1
O0S0 bns been handed down to us sail
ors from the log book of the ark," says
a sailor In the New York Times. "Mrs.
Noah went down one morning to 11 to
potato bin in tho lower hold for tho
vegetables required for the noonday
meal. Her favorite collie dog, Nip, fol
lowed her, as was his dally custom.
While Mis. Noah was soiling out the
tubers tho ark collided with a small
Sling, which punctured a small hole In
her side close to where the holy stood.
Boeing that Immediate action was nec
essary, she tool; off her woolen petti
coat and apron and stuffed them Into
the hole, but tho pressure of the water
forced (lie things out, and so she put
them back ngalll and sat on them, call
ing loudly for assistance. Hut no ono
seemed to hear her, as the animals
were making such a noise. In her po
sition BllO leaned back so that the
backs of her arms were pressed up
against tho cold sides of the vessel;
hence tho bucks of women's arms are
always cold. The water was coming
in fast, and she began to fear for the
safety of tho ark, so she Jumped up
and, grabbing Nip, put his nose Into
tin? hole and hndo him slay there until
she wont to the fore hatch and shout
ed for help. A carpenter's mate heard
her and como down into tho hold with
n soft pine plug, released poor Nip and
Stopped the leak. The water Olltsldo
was very cold, and Nip got a cold nose,
