An AlW'Kory. f'uthbert Liberal. Our Alliance friends must pardon us for again suggesting that the most direct route to the port of Independence is the straight road that leads by the town Huy Less. The road that passes the Buy (’heap runs through a neighbor hood in which every citizen is engaged specially in robbing farmers. This neighborhood is properly called Buy More. The people of this neighborhood have smooth tongues and their argu ments are almost irresistible. They say to the farmer: ‘You can not raise wheat successfully in this county. You can buy your flour 25 per cent, cheaper than you can raise it. As to meat! Why a inan is a fool to try to raise hogs here when he can buy meat from our “trade Stores’’ at ten cents a pound. As for sugar! Why you can’t make sugar fit to use. Your neighbors would laugh at you if they were to visit you and you sweetened their coffee with home made sugar. Beside, you can buy syrup in the lower counties at 30 cents a gallon. It is very troublesome to make syrup and it is terribly filthy work. Hay and oats! Why they can raise ten times as much of these things in Kentucky and Ohio as you can in this county, and, of course, they can sell them cheaper than you can raise them here, especially if you buy them through < ur “trade stores.” •lust think of it! On land that will grow ten bushels of oats you can make 500 pounds of seed cotton. With the 500 pounds ofcottonyou can buy 20 bushels of oats at our “trade stores.” And so these people of the Buy More neighbor hood ply their arguments to every farmer who takes the road leading by the town Buy Cheap, in so plausible a way that they invariably heed their advice and patronize the trade stores too largely and overload their teams so that they never reach the port of Independence. But there are other places on this road, more dangerous than the Buy More neighborhood. There is, just be3 r ond this neighborhood the most deceptive bog hole in the world. It is impossible to see it until you are mired too deep to ever get out of it. Across its surface everything looks smooth and firm, but more farmers have stuck there than at any other place on the road—and they have stuck to stay. When the farmer first drives into it, his team bogs but lightly and he sees no danger, but thinks he will pull through all right. The further he goes the deeper lie bogs and it is almost impossible to turn round and drive back. This seductive quagmire is called by the pleasing name Credit. There is nothing in the name that tells of Tts dangers and the surface looks so smooth and firm that its dangers are absolutely invisible. AVe have said that it is almost impossible to turn round and drive back out of this quagmire. The reason for this is that, standing on either side of it are two hideous monsters, who keep guard to prevent any turning back. Their names are AVaive, Note and Mortgage. It is impossible to drive round them and they hold the farmer to the Credit hole until he sinks. There are many, other danger ous places over the route and the man who travels it rarely ever reaches the port of Independence. The Buy Less road leads by a thrifty neighborhood, where every citizen is a friend to the farmer. The people of this neighbor hood are very plain in their dress and simple in their manners, but they are very happy and have a word of cheer for the farmer who passes that way. They give him a “square meal” if he is hungry and load his wagon with pro vender for his team. The name of this neighborhood is Home Raised Supplies. Another prosperous village on this route is called Pay Cash and here is found as happy a lot of people as ever lived. Over this route the farmer has easy traveling and is not long in reaching the port of Independence, where lie dwells in peace and plenty, surrounded by home comforts, refreshing breezes from the great ocean “Prosperity ever fanning his brow. Important to Farmers. Postmaster-General Dickinson made use of some statistics in his recent speech at Grand Rapids, Michigan, the other day, that the farmers of Georgia should certainly consider. He said the farmers of Georgia, Ala bama, Mississippi, and Louisiana during the year of 1880 paid the Western farm ers $22,000,000 for wheat and flour, $10,00,000 for pork and bacon, $8,000,- •000 for other products, making a total of $40,000,000 paid out annually for farm products, and if we add to this $10,000,000 for mules and horses it makes the snug little sum of $50,00,000. Is there a country under the sun, no matter what the resources are, that can withstand such drainage as this. The farmers should consider and act upon their suggestions, and no more im portant subject could be brought before the “Farmers Alliance” than means and ways to make the farm self-sustaining. Home coiitend that we can raise our own w'heat in this country, it was done once and can be done again. Only a few years ago, this was not considered a good oat country, now it is one of the best crops we grow, and who knows but it may be so with* wheat. These points are worth investigation. When we get to [raising our meat and wheat, and our horses and mules then we will be a more prosperous people. There are many who are trying to make the farm self-sustaining, and these are those that prosper. “Hold Her Hard, Had.” Southern (Miss.) Reporter. When the unfavorable intelligence did lx*gin to come it came like a thunder bolt. AVe grinned and bore it like a hero, but we felt all the time as if we were being kicked by a big mule, and were forcibly reminded of the story of a man who tried to teach his own son how to shoot. His plan was to fire off his gun, apd get the boy to fire at the same time until he got used to it. r lh'e boy loaded every time the old man did, but never pulled the trigger at all. After awhile the old man became disgusted, and, snatching the boy’s gun, pulled down. Off went the gun and over went the old man in the feii(se corner, heels up ward. The boy, seeing this, halloed out. “Hold her hard, dad; there’s six more to come!” AA'hen the telegram came an nouncing that New York had gone for Harrilon we tumbled over backward in the fence corner and felt like the old man did. We’re better now. Does farming pay? Well, yes. It has paid Mr Frank McDaniel who found him self without help when the busy season began and had to depend on day labor. He managed to run a two mule farm, and has gathered 220 bushels of corn; has picked fifteen bales of cotton and has five or six in his fields; has sold S3O worth af potatoes and has as many left; has made 1,000 pounds of meat, and lias a supply of fodder, shucks, etc. Farm ing does pay something, and so does everything else that is well worked.—Tul botton Era.
