As a moans of contracting the
intluenco of tho l»«*nrs on the
cotton market, the Union
hint opened offices in Munches- 1
tor, England, and on tho eon-’
linent, t hrough winch saloH of cut -
ton may he made direct from the
producer to the spinner. \ I most
every buyer wlio touches cotton j
atter it leaves tho fanner’s bands
has a bearish inlhieneo on the
market. I In* fanner must in some I
way eliminate till such buyers if
he would realize an honest price .
for his cotton. This can be sue*;
cesrtfully done in no other way, 1
perhaps, than by soiling direct to
lhe spinners. Os course the plan
is new mu) will take time to ro- |
veal what there it m it. both ot
strength and of weakness. It is
believed, though, that there is
much in it in the farmer's favor.

There is a scientific side to I
farming. Kvery farmer should
endeavor to keep up with the pro*
greasive ideas of up-to-date farm
ers. He eannot do this with any
very great degree of pleasure or|
profit without what might be call-!
ed an ngricultoral edueation. One*
of the best places to obtain such*
an education is on an ideal farm, i
Is your farm conducted so that j
your sons are receiving an agri
cultural education there or are
they drifting into that class that
learn nothing but how to kill
grass?
Every farmer should have in his
library a number of books on ag
riculture. No fanner has a mo
nopoly on agricultural knowledge
ami advancement. There is much >
1 1 hat an}’ farmer should learn
about fanning from books on that
subject if he only eared to edu
cate himself along bis lino of
work.
Then, too, every farmer should,
m addition to being a reader of at
least three or four good agricultur
al papers, tie a close student of
j the bullet ms of the State Experi-
I incut Station, llow many know
about these bulletins or have ever
read one? Any fanner who desir
es may receive these bulletins here
l>v jusi simply addressing the di
reetor <d the State Experiment
Karin, Experiment, On., ami state
that you are a farmer and desire
i tb«s.> bulletins mailed to von. A
farmer running two plows omo
i dd me that he would not take $oO
'-a year for the benefit lie derived

You hear a great deal now and
j then about the mouev panic. You
i may even hear that the cause ol
II hi* panic i* the Farmers' Union.
It is real amusing j«i»t t.> listen at
people talk. \Yliy, «ome even say
that the Farmers' Union i» re
sponsible for the price of cotton
being below lo cents a pcuud ! Os
course it is real amusing to listen
toil!! such; but who really be
in v - stieli talk? N ver in years
have we realized such a price for
i«*otton as we have during the pres
entseason. 1 In* Farmers Union
Jins stood for higher price of cot
ton. \Ye have in part realized our
desires and all who had cotton to
t». ll have enjoyed this increase in
price. But yet you may hear that
the Farmers’ Union is responsi
ble for everything that goes wrong!
Tho l nion, though, is moving (
j steadily onward.
Till M‘>vrOOMhKY MONITOR—THURSDAY, JAN. 0, l’JOd
j TIME FOR ItEFtiKM.
> There is no better doctrine to
i preach at this season of the year
■j t han the doctrine of diversiflca
turn. Tho farmer must learn to
•live a* Imme’—raise about every
thing that is consumed on tho
| I
i farm at home. This means keep
-1 : ing at home and putting into your
•jown pockets the money that is us-
I ually spent for those things that
are not usually produced at home,
for which a high price is always
paid. Whoever heard of a farm
er being “hard up” who raised
’ | plenty of corn, oats, hay, pota
-1 tees, hogs and cattle, in fact, ev
■ crythmg needed on his farm? Os
course cotton must have the right
of way on farms in the South, yet
■ wo must realize the fact that there
'! are other things that can be raised
ito advantage here. Diversifica
tion is the keynote to profitable
farming in the South. Many who
have become successful fanners
have found this out and think
‘ they have found a gold mine on
I their own farms. i

Friday, Jan. l\ —only eleven ar-

“It menus that the police can give
more protection to the law-abid- 1
(ing citizens than ever before, by
putting a stop to the burglaries i
anti hold-ups, which disorder has 1
, heretofore kept in the background
l in the down-town sections,” said <
Chief Jennings.
