OmcB T. J. Smith, Master, j
Oconee, Ga., Aug., 28, 1874. J
Brother Patrons: It becomes my duty,
being no prominently identified with the
great farmers’ movement in Georgia, to
luvite your serijua attention to ine de-
mandn of the time upon our noble order.
Our effort* an producers of the soil under
a protecting Providence, to render our
* s fnrmH self-sustaining, have to a great
measure proven successful.
Our gojd Lord and Master 1ihh sent ns
early aud lute rain* and fruitful seasons,
. aud our so long empty grauaries will soon
gro'ii with more cheering abundance
than they have since (heunfortunate war.
The excessive hot and dry weather, cur-
' tailing our cotton crop, is to be hoped
$will prove a blessiug in disguise, The
ghrewd aud sharp-sighted speculator, who
,. iu tieeu so vigilant in heraldiug through
press the crop of tour aud a half mil-
■ Option of bales, will be hushed, and the cot-
‘ . £Lion ring, true to their instincts, were
forging chains to fetter us—let ns prepare
>o rend asuuder, and, true to ourselves,
'amilies, and oonntry, rally under oar
blight and floating colors, the only prom
ise to the ti.lera of the soil. We should
take time by the forelock, using onr ut
most influence with our friends who have
so kindly oome forward and contributed
to our necessities, furnishing food, eto.,
to bold onr ootfou until developments are
made that are satisfactory as to the ex
tent of the growing orop.
Heartily congratulating yon upon the
spirit of self-reliance aud fortitude which
yon have so nobly manifested under pri
vations and disappointments, grievous to
be endured, and for whioh we were total
ly uoprepsrsd, let me earnestly and affec
tionately entreat yon not to abandon the
policy of making abuudanoe of supplies
for home, and heed earnestly the resolu
tion as passed by the Cotton States Con
tention of November last year, and im-
eeeively reiterated in its session of July
at, of planting one-third of onr arable
ind in small grain, ons-third in corn and
ie-third in cotton.
Hearken the warning voice of the past
whose syren song of planting all cotton,
hurling us into bankruptcy of property
and well noar of credit and character.
Soon the season of sowing of fall and win
ter crops— turnips, wheat, oats, 170, etc.,
will be upon ns, aud remember earnostly
, that the judicious and prudent farmer, the
good and faithful Patron will gather into
their granaries, that themselves, families
and animals may have feed in winter.
•Our brother Patrons of all the cottou
‘owing States, pledging to na their hearty
incurrence in the one-third system, and,
erefore, while ourootton production will
diminished, you may yet hope to real-
a greater amount of profit by the ad-
ance price of the same. Efforts aro be
ing made through established agoncies to
aeoure supplies of grain for seed at re
duced cost; and cant I ask, with some
confidence, where are the good and true
Matrons who have a surplus and will re
st) to open their hearts and granaries in
ruihhing seed to promote the laudable
id we have in view ?
Though the hardshipe, privations and
ppoiutments of the farm are galling,
us bear it with Christian fortitude,
noising ourselves by snob sacrifices a
ter day will soon dawn, and to huBten
it better time we will do all in onr pow-
to promote the interest of our noble un
taking. We propose soon to divide
State into districts, over whioh put
■HMBa and diso'eet deputies of our order,
se duty will be to canvass, lecturi g,
organizing granges. In this I invoke
free anil hearty co-operation of every
ron in Georgia. Believing the weal
Jlr woe of the South; yes, of the whole
nntry, is depending upon the success or
‘lure of the Grange movement, I pro
se, in addition to the deputy movement,
devote my entire time to the work of
ir order, and will visit, as I have been
ling, all parts of Georgia where duty and
iy good brothers have called me. Broth-
s, we have a great work to do. Let us
it about it in earnest, and kindle a flame
! brotherly love throughout onr prond
Id State, aud not be content until we en-
under our bright and flying colors
•ry tiller of the soil in our midst.
The political parties of the country will
m be arrayed, and the sagacious politi
cs attempting to allure us into tue en-
igling alliances of party. Let ns prove
them we are true to onr professsion and
ith in adhering striotly to onr funda-
mtal law, doing nothing that will savor
the least of committing our Order to
ilitics.
Let me, in conclusion, exhort you to
rish and practice the cardinal precepts
our Order in every detail of life, and
1, under the guidance of the ever merci-
ll Husbandman above, shall confidently
iticipate for onr distressed and diapuit-
class the bright era of prosperity, plen-
and contentment.
Yours, fraternally, eto.,
T. J. Smith, Master of G. H G.
