LOCKHART JUNCTION I.ockhart Junction, March G.?We have had some winter weather since my last letter. Mother earth has been wrapped in her mantle of white and March winds blowing cold. There has not been much farm work done in this section. The talk with some farmers is about using guano. Well, this is another tiling that the farmer is up against. It does seem there is always something coming up. The price of guano is much higher than last year. IIow is it there is no potash in it? The very thing we need for our land and yet it is higher? What is the matter? There must be some speculation. I say don't buy too soon. Prices may go down if there is not too much bought or sold too quick. Some talk of using none at all. Well, if everybody would do that it would be all right. I'm in hopes there won't be any more cotton planted than there was last year. Small grain is looking very weel in places. The Rural School Improvement as sociation hold at the (Jault school house last Friday night was well attended and the exercises given were fine. Each hoy and girl who spoke did well. It' I had been one of the judges it would have been hard for me to decide who made the best speech. Misses I.ouise and Elizabeth I'urcell of t'nion spent the weekend with Miss Mohalia Smith and attended the exercises and Miss I.ouise I'urcell rendered some fine music on the piano for the occasion. Miss Tena Wise, the teacher of the Kelton school, also played some. Messrs. Harry Byers and Aubrey Smith of Union were also present. Mr. W. F.

( i We are having all sorts of weather j low.

A great many millB n England have increased the wages >f the operatives, which is right when ?11 corporations are prosperous wages >ught to be raised; when poor they should be cut. That is honest busiless. I don't hear of any raise in "ages of our Southern cotton mills, ilthough they may have raised them; t should be so. There should be no fighting between corporations and their operatives: all .hould work harmoniously together md all would be more prosperous. .Vhen you hear an operative say "I lon't care; I have have to pay the .ax." They have it to pay or don't ake care of their property and try to ;ave them all the expense they can, io they can make money you surely vill get better wages. Business men lo not invest money only to make nore money and if they do not the orporation will fail and on the other ;ide, if you hear a rich firm preaching hey pay all taxes, etc., and that the )oor man pays only a trifle watch hem and see if they don't have an ixe to grind, or there is something >ehind where they expect to get toeir noney back because men are not like he primative Christians at Pcnteost when the rich who had lands and louses sflld them and gave to the poor, ;o wage-earners, when you hear an iperative say, "I don't care; I don't lave to pay," get rid of all such felows if you can for they are against he interest of the wage-earners. Corlorations are not like farmers; they alculate the cost of everything and he last thing is the wages, so if they ire prosperous you will get fair vages; if not poor wages. Let all vork harmoniously together, but keep in eye on the moneyed men, who are idvocating more espense, saying they >ear me nuruen and it don't cost yon >oor fellows anything. It is a fact hat the moneyed men or property twners directly pay the expenses of -tinning the government, but let me ell you that the laboring men pay learly all taxes, indirectly. The ashier in the bank, the clerk in the store, the railroad hands and operaives of all kinds of factories, etc., are he men who pay the taxes.

Simple Laxative Compound Helps to Correct Constipation in Children. With all children there are times when the bowels fail to act naturally and it becomes necessary for the parents to administer a remedy.
