Address all communications iuteuded (or this
column to J. Stribling,. Pendleton . S. C.
Before you can require or expect
other organized tradesmen or combinations
to be honest and deal fair
ly with you ana your teiiow tarmers,
yon yourself must be houest to yourself
and fellow farmer and get right
by joining the co-operative movement
among farmers for the betterment
of all.

Condemn a man to death and then
compel him to dig his own grave is
the limit to his punishment and unfortunate
end.
About the next thing to that
punishment is for the all-cotton
farmer to be condemned into the
idea of getting rich by growing cotton
exclusively and then being compelled
to dig his own grave, tiuancially,
by dumping his cotton upon
the market at the other fellow's
price to pa\ for bought farm crops

If that isn't the limit to farming agony
aud iguorance in a busiucss
sense, what is it J
Watch the silent bull dog creeping
up behind you; he is dangerous.
But never mind about the much
bailing fice parading around in
front of you. Parallel cases of this
kind among men are common; the
big fellows get together in secret
meetings and conspire to rob the
farmer, aud the only way the farmer
has to keep them from doing it is
for farmers to get together in secret
meetings and devise plans to protect
farmers' interest against all the
many schemes to get his products at
their own prices.
All cotton seed meal that is damaged
or risky to feed to stock should
have the death crossbones branded
on every sack. Our South Caroliua
pure food law, passed at the last
legislature, is no good. We need a
pure food law for both man and
beast with an unerring provision for
its enforcement.
f
Wrong End Foremost.
Instead of cotton growers tottering
up and down the streets with a sam pie
of his cotton asking a buyer what
-he will give, we want to see the
farmer bulk his cotton in big lots
when buyers will be coming along
*to know just what you have and
what you want for it.
Educational and Co-operative Union.
There is a big thing in this name!
It implies that when the farmer becomes
educated well up on the business
side of his farming that he will
then know the value of the co-operation
and joiu in a united work for
the good of all.
Some few men amoDg many have
it "sot" in their selfish bigoted
minds that there should on most ev ery
occasiou be something lying
about for them that others don't get.
These men are not tumbling over
each other coming iuto the Farmers'
Union, and they are usually worth
nothing to the Union until that selfish,
rusty shell is scrubbed off of
fcLem.
Farmers must step tbat set habit
they have of growling about what
others are doing against the interest
of the farmer when they meet and
then go back home and wait for
something to tnrnup in your behalf.
Farmers must get together and turn
something up themselves for their
own interest or it will not be done.
Get together and organize Farmers'
Uuions all over the country and
then you will be in shape to demand
-and get fair play in all things and
an equitable division of the good
things and pleasures of the days as
they go by if you will co-operate
and work together for the good of
all. Farmers, above all classes m?n
<?n earth, can afford to get together
and attend to their own business in
.their'own way and let other people's
business alone save when they get
in the way of our progress.
Plant all the cow peas and forage
crops possible. Never hold up
planting something as long ts
you thiuk it will come iu. Late
| hay crops are often best.

j An impostor under the name of
; an eye doctor, is reported to this
j office us having just passed through
| portions of Oconee, Pickens and
j Anderson counties in a great hurry
i selling brass frame spectacles for $10
! that can be bought anywhere for $1
| to $1 50 each. His plan of getting
! a start in a section is to learu the
name of a prominent physician and
; a few good men in the country, fie
first succeeds in making some prom!

on the next good man, and a kind
, of endless chain, rapid moving business
is on. The family actually
sold sometimes as much as $40
worth to families in sight of each
other. "Get your gun, Johuny."
' Dou't kill him or break any bones,
| for it would be a pity to take the
[ time of good men to either wait 011
or bury such a scamp. But when
you get him on the retreat down the
! road, let him have a mild load of
bird shot on the soft part just below
the hip'pockets; thiscounter-iritant
will not only encourage him
on his way bat it will make it more
comfortable walking than sitting
down for many days, which will
keep him walking. Don't be afraid
of him laving you; suchVamps can
never atiora to nsK tne law.

of his brother, Mr R K Mouzon,
on Monday, June 3, at 1 o'clock
p. m., in the 82nd year of his
life. Sometime during the "50's "
he was married to Miss MorgianaMouzonof

who died about twelve years
ago

war Mr Mouzon enlisted in
the company commanded by
Capt. 0 P Nelson, which formed
a part of Col. Rutledge's
cavalry regiment,where he served
until the close of the war.
From early training the deceased

for truth and integrity, which
characterized his dealings with
his fellow-men. He was highly
esteemed by all who knew him.
