February 26th. The meeting is to be known as “The Southern Negro Anti-Sa loon Congress,” and it is declared to he the intention to make the af fair an epoch in the history of the negro race in the south. The pro gramme includes an address by some of the south’s ablest men, both white and black. The com mittoe making the announcement says: “We are determined to prove to our worthy white friends that we are as profoundly concern ed in the great moral movement as any others.” The only method for the negro to adopt is for them to stand by the best elements of the white race, who are their best friends. ■"istions will indor way. carry Trades?

Yorsevill, (S.C.) Enquirer. A wise old merchant .of York- ville, used to tell his clerks: “It doo3 not require a salesman te sell a plug of tobacco. Anybody can do that. The sale is already jnade in fact. The customer merely c^lls ior the tobacco and the salesman only takes the money. The real salesman is the man who can take up a useful article about wbieh the eustomer knows nothing, points out its merits and its value and make a sale.” There is lots of valuable food for thought in this observation, which can be [applied with equal pro priety to varion i other liaes of en deavor. It does not take a farmer for instance, to raise ten bushels of corn on fresh, new ground. Any body can do that. The real farm er goes in for making forty or six ty bushels of corn on comparative ly poor land, and he does not think of st ipping^there. After raising the corn he goes in for saving and utilizing every penny of value that comes with the crop. The corn, fodder, shucks to hand, he does not want to sell them as raw ma terials. if instead he can put them through horses, mules, cows, hogs and pigs, and thus derive still greater value from them. The real farmer makes every move on the theory that he is in the business for life, knd along with products that are directly exchangeable for money values, ^he looks out for things thatjpromise value in the future. The possibilities open to the farmer—-any farmer—are lim ited only by his industry, perse verance and capabilities. For Cotton Farmers. The most practical suggestion that has emanated fre m any organi zation of farmers for increasing the consumption of cotton is that made at the convention of delegates of the various branches of the Georgia Farmers’ Union in Atlanta on Mon day. The suggestion is that every member of the union in all the states have a suit made of cotton for wear while at home engaged in farm work or in overseeing his farm. It is stated that there are approx, imately three millions ©f farmers in the union. It would take a great many yards of cotton cloth to make a suit of each one, and a new suit would be required each year. The The cost of such a suit would be small. It would be well within the means of every faamer. If a coat, vest and pantaloons **ere not de sired at least a sort ot frock, coming just below the knees and caught about the waist by a belt, would be lie a very useful garment. It would help farmers to keep clean their more costly clothes. There still continues to be talk of cotton bagging iustead oljute bag ging as a wrapper for eolton With regard to it we said sometime ag® that if it were a prac.icabie wrap ping it would have been in general use long ago. It will he recalled that it was tried a few years ago and abandoned. - It waa found that the tendency of the farmers wa s to use cloth of too light weight, and oonse. quently the wrapper was all to pleCoB IOi:g )• ed its d .<• with it ships be. ■*' cotton reach 'll. Bales covered bn screwed into covering wouldn’t stand the strain. Of course it would matter to get cotton sufficient strength, but if tiiat were done the cost would be prohibitive be an easy wrapping of Legal Advertisements. NOTICE TO DEBTORS AND CREDITORS. J. H.

The only difficulty in the way is that of getting the farmers to wear suns of that kind. No doubt a few would readily comply with a resolution of the organization re specting cotton suit-, but it is doubt ful if the number would be large enough to make ail appreciable dif ference in the coasumption of cotton. A big maaket'is awa ting cotton in China. There are scores ot mil lions of people in that country with out practically any clothing of con sequence, and who would like noth ing better than one cotton suit a year. If our cotton goods were brought oloser to the homes of the people ot China the price of cotton would advance a cent, and perhaps two cents, a pound. While ttu> question of suits for members of tb® Farmers’ Union is ponding, why Det take steps tor enlarging the Chinese market for cotton? —Savasnah Sows. A Revolutionary Resolu tion. Atlanta Constitution. If the Farmers Union' in Georgia carries out con- cie«tio«sly the meas. ares adopted at tne recent state meeting in itlant:-, it will have in’ augurated a campaign which should go far toward solving indefinitely the vexed annual problem ot fair prices for cotton. The seven hundred-odd members present at the meeting pledged them selves to raise during the coming year all the corn, meat and other supplies necessary ior the suste*- nance o. man and beast, They al go agree, while at work in the field and about the house, to wear sails made of cotton. These two measures, which have in fc them nothing of agitation or theoretical propaganda, may be made to foreshadow almost a com plete revolutionizing of agriculture m Georgia. They mean primarily, that much of the acreage given ov er to the pi eduction of cotton will be invested in the raising of home supplies, for which the overwhelm*- mg majority of the farmers now pay cash prices or incur indebtedness as the embarrassed or “distressed” security. They mean that hundreds of thousands of dollars sent annual ly out of the state fnr these common dities will be retained within our borders. They mean, also, that the farmers will work gradually to those diversified methods which insure net one, but two‘ three or several staple and absolutely reliable money crops. The action regarding cotton elott ing isdiardly less important. If carx rieJ persistently into effect, it sigui* fies an appreciable mcrease in the consumption of the fiber and subse quent higher and more uniform prices. Practical progress dictates that the state movement be made a na tional on*. Mutual self-interest al so suggests that the business men cooperate heartily in the material* ization of the crusade.
