THEFARMERS^ j
\ UNION BUREAU.'
Conducted by S. C. Farmers' lloinn
Address all coraraunkatious intended for this
column to J. O. StriMing, Kendleton C.
tn Mi.u ur r .
That bright fool that is in yonr j
Union who sold his own crop of cot- j
ton for future delivery and keeps at J
it tryiug to persuade others to do
the same ununion :ut, should be
backed up against the business end
of oue of his tirst cousins, the longeared
ass, where he will receive the
bounce out of the Union and land
into some future society that carries
its brain 3 in the opposite end from
where good Farmers' Union members
carry theirs.
*
Remember this, that a large portion
of cotton growers that are vet
outside of the Union, watch the minimum
prices set by the Union as
close as Union men do,but somehow
or other they do not possess the requisite
amount of grit, pluck and
fairness to come into the Union yet.
Aboot the fifth of September yon
will bear the minimum price on cot
ton, then heave for it, altogether.
\ ?
farmers, you have "got there
FIRST WITH THE MOST MEN."
Now let me implore yon to go at
it at once to digging and throwing
up your fortifications so that you
oan hold your positions against the
onslaught of all the cotton bears on
earth.
r -it _
j. mean mis as an illustration to
fbow you the importance of sowing
9 large crop of small grain this fall
to fortify yourselves against the possibility
of being forced to sail your
ootton next year at cotton bear prices
to pay for the stock food that you
may raise at home by starting now
to do it.
Take a common fertilizer drill or
\ COtton planter and drill in from two
to three rows of oats between cotton
rows just behind the cotton pickers
at the first picking. This machine
will open out the farrow and put in
the seed all at one time going and
leave the opeu furrow in just the
ideal condition to stand the winter
freeze. i
Farmers' Union objects are, first,
how to put more business in your
farming and, second, bow to put
more brains in your work.
These principles applied to farming
properly will do wonders in the
way of making fine crops, but your ,
profits just here are in uucertain
status if you allow others to name
the price for your products. There
is in most men a kind of disposition
to take all that the other fellow will
allow, aud the profits in your year's
labor have gone to others who have
neither spent a day's labor or a dime
to produce the crop.
Just here is the strong position of
the Farmers' Uuion whose objects
are to combine their interest in a
way to control or place a fair price
on their own products and they
have been very successful in doing
this during the last three years.
This principle is the right thing
to do and so long as we stand by
these rules we are going to continue
to be successful.
TOO MUCH SPEAKING.
We are in need of a little. reform
and forethought in these public
meetings in two ways. In order to
make sure of entertaining the crowd
and fencing against an accident by
Borne speaker not showing up we overload
the meetings sometimes by
about double the number of speakers
that is needed and consequently
the people become worn out and disgusted
with the whole lot of speakers
and tbe cause for which the people
were called together to discuss.
We have known some men to get
up and talk one and a half hours repeating
about the same thing over
and over again while about half a
dozen speakers, and the people, too,
are waiting on him to get through.
The remedy for this is to start in
time and be sure to get men that
know something about the subject
to be discussed and above all to know
A
0
how 10 condense their ideas and stop
at the right place. When yon gel
the right mau remember that this
mau pays his own expenses and il
he is not worth this to you, don't
get him, but get another man that
is worth his fare and you pay it.
Nearly all old-fashioned Cough
Syrups aiv constipating, especially
those that coutain opiates. They
don't act just right. Kennedy's
Laxative Cough Syrup contains no
opiates. It drives t?e cold out of
the system by gently moving the
bowels. Contains Houey and Tar
and tastes nearly as good as maple
syrup. Children like it. Sold by

Williamsburg's Schools.
Editor County Record and Citizens
of Williamsburg:
There are 211 schools in Williamsburg
county. But for
Spartanburg with 226 and
Orangeburg with 221 schools we
would head the list of counties
with regard to the number of
schools. Yet Spartanburg has
four times as much school fund
and Orangeburg three times as
much as we have, and both
have more than double as many
pupils. While we rank third
among the counties in number
of schools, thirty of the fortyone
counties have a larger
school fund than we have, and
fourteen have more pupils. We
should not be surprised at the
short school term and poor
schools of our county. I ask
your help in bringing about a
a better state of affairs.

UNVEILING OFMftNUMENT
TO J Y MCGILL, JR.
BY ASSEMBLED CAMPS OF WOODMEN
OF THE WOBLD-A NOTABLE
OCCASION.
At 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon
Cades Camp W. 0. W.?Hickory
No. 234?at the Williamsburg
cemetery unveiled a monument
to the memory of Soverign J Y
McGill, Jr., deceased, a faithful
and earnest member of Hickory
Camp. Thennveiling was witnessed
by one of the largest
crowds ever seen in this community
on a similar occasion.
The exercises were carried out
in perfect order and every one
present was gratified at this
tribute to a deceased brother by
his surviving comrades.
Members of the order of Wood,
craft werdr-present from nearly
every camp in tbe county.including
Lake City,Hebron, Johnsonville,
Indiantown, Workman and
Cboppee. It was an inspiring
sight to see the < hoppee Camp
in tbe march to the cemetery,
there being about 150 men in
line.
On arriving at the cemetery
the usual Woodman's wedge
was formed, after which the ceremony
appropriate to this occasion
was conducted by Sovereigns
P M Brockinton and W J
Smiley and the. beautiful monument
was unveiled.
Following this Miss Maude
Logan of Kingstree recited in a
very impressive manner, Gray's
well-known "Elegy in a Country
Church-yard." Miss Logan's
interpretation of this sublime
master piece was much enjoyed.
A very eloquent address on
the subject of Woodcraft was de*
livered by Philip Stoll, Esq.,
the Consul Commander of Kings
tree Camp. Mr Stoll is a pleasing
speaker and his remarks
were listened to with rapt at
tention.
The melancholy pleasure of
the occasion was mush enhanced
by the mtisical selections of
the Lake City Quartette, which
were very appropriate and prettily
rendered.
