What Is the Farmers* Union?
The Farmers' Union is a covenant
among farmers for their mutual benefit.
harm in that? Wise men
have said that when farmers are
. prosperous sll other legitimate occupations
receive their share of the
farmers' uplift; then why is it that
any right-thinking man should not
be willing to lend a helping hand to
the Farmers' Union?
r If vnnr lininn has a last vear's
i x bird-nest appearance, better kick it
| orf the limb and round up a new one,
^nnd be sure that the material will
not
take the dry rot, and then mind
the flies and vermin off the new one.
Our county unions will soon elect
delegates to the State Union, July
26-27. Round up your best men as
delegates. Let your delegates be of
that kind of patriotic, liberty-loving
farmers who never allow their prejudice
or personal interest to lead
them away from their duty?men of
pluck and grit that know the law and
good for the Farmers' Union and
have the backbone to stand for the
good of the union even against friend
or foe alike,

' 'Farmers* Union a Connecting Link
The power and influence of the

r i
balance the scales ol justice and
right from its claws? Our Farmers'
Unions are called upon to do a lot of
-charitable work. We have quite a
lot of substantial farmers that are
too cowardly to join the union for
fear of not pleasing some one in
other occupations?these sordid, in'
active cowards are made happy by
favors resulting without anv effort
on their part. Go after these neighbors
and show them that their permanent
prosperity depends largely
upon the general prosperity of their
neighbors.and they will be with you.
one points out mistakes that the
union has made, tell him that he is
the very man we need to come right
along into the union,where improvements
are always welcome, and that
the improvements cannot come from
the outside.
Our Duty First,
It is not what we want to do that
should guide our daily work, but
what is our duty. To many of us
not a day passes by but that duty
calls us to do things that our animal
nature does not want to do. Our
animal nature is "agin'' our leaving
our private business to go out among
farmers and put up a whole lot of
arguments to him to get him to join

co-operative ieature ui uie r anuria
Union has now come to be recognized
by all other organizations as
an indispensable connecting link between
farmers and all other industrial
ana educational organizations.
When the chamber of commerce of a
town desires to promote any new
proposition for the public benefit,
they have learned the advantage
there is in calling a conference with
the farmers' organization. Two of
the high officials of agricultural colleges
of two Southern States recenti'fly
stated to this scribe that the
Farmers' Unihn was a very important
connecting link between farmers'
college work and the farmer; the
union is the prime mover and co-op
erator in State and Government farm
demonstration work; the auto-good
roafis and other associations realize
thy'unless the union stands for good
roads these goo,d roads associations
are all up-hill pull. The very name,
"'Farmers' Educational and Co-operative
Union," is sufficient guaran,
tee of friendship and co-operation in
All better school movements.
Union Principles.
Suppose the churches, the State
And national Governments and all the
hundreds of secret orders and all
other organizations were to stand for
-only those labors in which the sacrifice
is not greater than the wage in
v -dollars, where would our civilization
be today? Would our nation's emblem
be more appropriate or acceptAble
to our people for the eagle to
carry a dollar in its beak than to
the union for their own benefit, but
duty says it, and we must obey. In
every county we have some of our
i best men that do not attend the
union meetings regularly for the ap!
parent reason that they think that
: we have gotten all the union de
mands.and that the thing is finished,
j that the farmers have learned the
' lesson, and that the organization
will run by itself, but it will net do
it. We must keep the union strong
' and stand for no measure or men
that are not strong and right. If
the majority of your brethren will
not go your way, it is your duty to
try their plan awhile and some will
no tlouot nna out later tnat an were
after the same thing, but you had
different way? of getting at it.
A Family Gathering.
Editor County Record:?
It was my privilege to be present
on yesterday (Wednesday) at a family
reunion in the pleasant home of
the Hon R P> Chandler, near Rome,
S. C. This gathering was in honor
' of the fifty-third anniversary of the
birthday of his wife, Mrs Alice M
Chandler. This most excellent Christian
lady is a daughter of that well
, known and' highly esteemed cx-Confederate
veteran. Mr Sam Huggins,
who ^s now in the eighty-third year
of his age and whose Godly life has
been a benediction to the Johnson'
ville commuaity. where he has lived
so long and so worthily,
The scene to which I have referred
was truly instructive and inspiring?
a noble Christian woman receiving
the heart-felt greetings and congratulations
of a large number of descendants
who owe so much to her
j own pious example.
Allow me, Mr Editor, to say that
homes presided over by Christian
j mothers are the true safeguards of
! a nation, and furnish the only basis
I upon which we can build a hope for
j the futiye greatness and prosperity
j of this goodly land bequeathed to U3
by pious ancestors.
Well, after a feast of good things
spread out for us under the oaks in
the yard of the Chandler home, the
young folks enjoyed their outdoor
sports and the older ones their social
chats, and then the delightful occasion
closed most appropriately with
; a prayer service conducted by this
: scribe.

Kill More than Wild Beasts.
The number of people killed yearly
by wild beasts doesn't approach
the vast number killed by disease
germs. No life is safe from their
attacks. They're in air, water, dust,
even food. But grand protection is
afforded by Electric Bitters, which
destroy and expel these deadly dis
ease germs from the system. That's
why chills, fever and ague, all mala-'
rial and many blood diseases yield
promptly to this wonderful blood
purifier. Try them, and enjoy the
glorious health and new strength
they'll give you. Money back if not
satisfied. Only 50c at M L Allen's.
Never leave home on a jourr.ey
without a bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
It is almost certain to be
needed and cannot be obtained when
on board the cars or steamships.
For sale by all dealers.
Again we beg to remind our
! friends that all notices relating to
; money - making enterprises, for
! church, school or any other cause, j
! are charged for as advertising at
one cent a word. All cards of
thanks, for any purpose whatsoever,
' are charged for at the rate of one
cent a word. It would save us a
good deal of trouble and embarrassment
if you would just count the
words and send the money along with
your "copy," as it hardly pays us to
keep books on these little items. Yet
in the aggregate they mean a considerable
loss to the paper if not
collected,and they are so easily overlooked.

THE TEST OF MERIT.
Kingstree People Are Given Convincing
Proof
No better test of any article can
be made than the test of time and
this is particularly true of a kidney
medicine. Doan's Kidney Pills have
stood this t-st and stood it well.
What better proof of the merits of
this remedy could you demand than
the statement of a Kingstree resident
who has been cured and has stayed
cured?
Read the following:
Mrs P D Epps, Kelley St, Kingstree.
S C. says: "I have no hesitation
in recommending Doan's Kidney
Pills, for I know from experience
that they act just as represented.
Two years ago I suffered from an
j attack of kidney complaint and I
