The gathering of farmers in St. Louis
on Dec. 3 will be tho most important
gathering of the kind over held in the
United Slates. The anticipated union of
the farmers in the great West with those

The Central Alliance warehouse of
Georgia, located in Macon, is doing a
much better business than the most san
guine expected at the start. Next year
it will do a booming trado, as so many
farmers had obligated thcmselvos to
other warehouses before this one was
opened. The nllianco commanded every
member to make good his pledges, and
this is the reason why there lias not

The advantage of tho fann»ra* insti
tutes ia so apparent that to discuss tho
question would be almost an insult to in

whether a prayer-meeting was neemary

cal meetings necessary to the existence
of a party.

such work, of course, is }>crsoual etTort.
But it U not possiblj to gel ail farmers
into un inrtitute any more than it is to

are somo men who hate farming and
they find nothin;; In it hut drudgery, and

NOTES ABOUT GEORGIA FARMERS.
It feems that Jack Frost has got the
belter of tho cotton in North Georgia.
The farmers aro blue in that region.
Mr. John Tillman, near Gladesville.
(In., raised 1,10) bushels of com this
year without uny other aid than his own
family.
Tho Allmta Journal says: The alli
ance people have established a ware
house and salesrooms in Savannah for
cotton and other farm products, with
John K. Cjoper as manager.
Y.'ill and Jolmnv O’Neal are about as
good fanners a i Talbot county affords.
limy made an average yield of forty,
one bushels of corn per acre on upland.
I Jr. T. (». O’Neal aho lias a line crop, ami
besides has about 200 gulions of scupper-
uong trine of thin year's make.
A good many farmers have adopted
the jTm of putting an extra tie on the
end of their bales of cotton. This plan
seems to be a good one. as it | re vents
tin* bagging at the end from being torn,
and makes the buje more easily hand led
with hooks with no liktdihood of hecom-j
jug mutilated.
Talbot New Era: Now remember that
C’oonville is nn important part of Talbot
county—good laud, plenty of timber,
good water and hills. Mr. Tom Good
win planted this year nine acres in cot
ton and made nine bales. Gid Tuck*
made fifteen bole* of colton and 2(H)
bushels of corn with ono plow.
The Marietta Journnl nays: Mrs. D.
F. McClatchey of this place, Iras a beau
tiful orange tree, hanging full of
oranges, some 27 in number. Mrs.
McClatchey keeps this orange tree ill the
open air during the summer, l ut places
it m the pit in the winter. It is flourish
ing, and showrs that even in North Geor
gia this delicious fruit can lie raised.
Dawson Nows: Mr. J. N. Portir, the
large and successful planter of the thiid
district, was in tho city Saturday and
reported tho burning of n gin house and
a naif grown negro girl on the Walker
place, just licyond the Terrell line, in
Dougherty county, on last Friday. The
girl is supposed to have been asleep in
t he lint room.
The Mineral Post: What, tho farmers
and people gfcornily need just now is a
first-class home market for th ir produce,
etc.. and to have them wo must engage
more extensively ia manufacturing.
M anufactures not only give people em
ployment, but give tho fanners a
good market for thc-ir products, keep
money ut home, help build up the coun
try aiid put tho people in good heart..
Albany Nows and Advertiser: The
dairy business in Dougherty is thriving
like a green tree planted by the river of
waters. Some of our enterprising dairy
men sell an much ns fifty dollars worth
of their dairy products in a week in this
city. There is money in tho business
rigid here. But thou, as a gentleman
roc larked to us a day or two ago, “there
is no legitimate business but that a man
who is industrious can make a good sup-
jort out of in or around Albany.
Washington Chronicle: Tito rent of
land is very cheap in Wilkes and Lin
coln. and m fact in this whole section.
Mr. .1. I.^ Inghram tells us that tho best
and Chat tho ordinary rent is one third.
Wo latvo no doubt that rents hero will
soon k‘ nighcr. This is inevitable and
in the fuce of the fact wo would adviso
r. ll yoiinjkt men who do not own land to
buv it at unco. Tin y can buy it on
time and at reasonable prices. This is
sound advice, if wo do say it.

In manipulating butter nover allow
the hands to come in contact with it, as
their warmth melts and injures the

Plants which may to desired for tho
window garden during; the winter should
now be given somo extra care in the
way of pruning, watering, etc.
Wheat bran give# the best results
when mixed with cut-feed. It is one of
the- cheapest foods that can bo purchased
for stock, both for its /ceding and ma
norial value.
Nothing is raoro soothing for burns or
scalds than to pour tho white of an egg
over the injured place. It is easily pro
cured nnd is more soothing than sweet
oil and cotton.
It was a strange oversight for congress
to fail to make provision for printing
the report of the Department of Agri
culture. But such is the fact aud it will
not 1m issued till after congress rawt*
and has time to make a special appropri
ation fur the purposo.
Living fence post* nover get out of
order, or have to be reset or decay. Un
der many conditions they can be made a
source ot profit also. Before building
nn ordinary jwot and rail fence or
barbed wire fence on cedar or oak jostn,
consider whether fruit trees, or trees
that will grow into valuable timber may
not bo planted for postd. Perhaps in
tho majority of cases this is impractica
ble, but when it eau be done much will
be gained by it.
Clover is a most effeettvo meano of
preventing waste of land by washing;
ai. d if every old field in tho South could
be covered 'with it, n hundred million
dollars would bo added to the available
wealth of tho farmers iu tho iucraivod
value of the land alone. There is no
*tiiliculty in growing clover anywhere.
It hone of tho easiest plants to grow.
Lost winter I kept a number of cattlo in
a piece of epen "wood* and fed them
once a day with about five pounds per
head of clover l»ay. The hay was scat
tered hero and there over two or throe
acres, and tho cattle scattered it still
more as they «-prt\id it about. This
summer tho land is well set iu clover,
and a Lunch of young calves feeding in
the lot have spent a good deal of time in
this clover patch.
Prnli Culture In Our Colton Climate.

American farmers raise more than half
of tho cotton consumed in Europe, be

timable advantages situs wm Low «*» i
ns grasu grows and water runs. Apples
grown iu the highlands abov (he city of
New York for consumption in Europe,
giving the farmers who ownt lie orchards
nn income of about fifty thousand dol
lars a year. His fruit is sent to European
cities in liis own vessel.
Forty years ago tho writer tried to im
press on the readers of the Southern
Cultivator the fact that dellciour pig
meat may l*e produced in the Southern
htates on figs and clover for less than half
the cost of imported bacon of an inferior
quality. Where the climate and soil
suit, tigs, grapes, apples and peaches
may La grown by the acre, at a small
c*st. for home consumption and exporta
tion. It pays to preserve fruit in sugar
for the market. These small industries
are having a rapid growth. Cold storage
tdiould receive more notice. The cover
ing that keeps ice from melting is not
expensive, and a farmer may find a
fortune in a cold storage of fruits,

From th© (list Icston News and Courier.
The address of Pre.ident .Stsckbouso
to the members of the alliance in
South Carolina'* should bo read by every
farmer in the state, whether lie te in or
out of the alliance, ft r the fight of one
Is the fight of all. The fat incf* have
put their Innds to tbo plow and they
cannot look hack. Tea rplcndirl warfare
that they have waged w ill have been
waged in vain if ut this critical moment
in tho con tot they surrender all that
they have gained.
“’if we are to continue nnd succeed in
this fight,” says President Stockhouse,
wo should low no time." Every sub-alli
ance iu the state must decido lor itself,
and decide quickly, whether or not the
contest shall ho continued next year.
It will be possible to secure nn ample
supply of cotton bagging to cover
every tale of cotton grown in the
South next year, U the alliance will
take its stand upon this question now.
Tho mills will not manufacture
cotton tagging tinier a they have a
e ?dgo from tho alliance that the cotton
ggmg will be u»ed for covering the
crop next year. The mills w*ere not able
ficient quantity to cotter the°present
year’s crop, because tho alliance did not
givo them time to put up the necessary
machinery for the manufacture of the
tagging. Tho question of tare has not
been adjusted, because the exchanges
have been led to beliovo that the farmers
were only making a ipurt, and that they
could not hold out ngaiust the combina
tion.
Unless the farmers act now. and act
together, the contest will turn against
them next year nnd their last state will
Iks worse than their first. If the principle
for which the alliance has been contend
ing was wortli fighting for this year, it
will be worth fighting for next year, and
every year. But, in order to win, the
farmers must stand together and work
together.

Editor T*xe< M .Plf: J desire to make a
statement of plaiu truths relative to tho
milk and butter to^U ut tbe recent State
Fair, and. as you have liublishcd these
tests to the world, 1 think it Lu! simple
justice to mo that, through tho t-amo
ini'diutu, you give publicity to the follow
ing facts: 1 entered two cows in both
tests. They weie ship/nd on an old box
ear and we'io forced to lie over in tbe
Central railroad vard on Tuesday night.
(We arrived in Macon in plenty of timo
to have been unloaded Tuesday evening.)
They w.*rc without food nnd water for
at least thirty hours. Being thus starved
an l famished aud jerked and pushed
about by tbo switch engines, they wi re
greatly reduced iu their flow of milk
middl'd not resemble themselves, but
they were recovering rapidly from this
rough treatment. Un the night previous
to tho Ust my milk man went at aoout
11 o’clt ck and gave each of them a largo
fi e J of boiled |>eas aud raw peas in the hull.
Unaccustomed to bciug ted at this
time of night and Icing over-fed threw
them off heavily in their milk produc
tion the next day—the day of the test.
In fuct one of them was very badly
swollen with colic and I had to with
draw her from the test entirely. The
other was thoroughly surfeited and was
first. See that old ditches are cleaned,
widened or deepened, ns the * as* tnuv
require. If these do not sufficiently
drain tbo ground, ojicu new ones. Now
is juit the timo to do it—no postpone

and haul away all those banks along the

The Energy of the Young ?!rn of the
South Illustrated.
Frssi the Mssuffrfttrrtt*
It is tiie young men of the South, that
is, those ranging from youth to -10 or 50
years of uge, who are making tho South
of to-day. T hey ask no favors. Worthy
sons of worthy sires, gifted with the Lest
treasures of Anglo-Saxon brawn, brain,
courago and energy, they aro resolved to
mako Dixie the L’nnann of the new
world. They aro tilled with au enthu
siasm that cuunot be dampened. They
aro bold, earnest, oner get!;, and, above
all. they have a faith in tlic.JyjMji’s
future that cannot bo weakened. All
honor to tho youug South. This is moat
forcibly illustrated in the letter fiom our
correspondent, Mr. Thouius P. Grastv,
from Anniston. When Samuel Noble,
the founder of Anniston and tho pro
jector of its giant industries, died, he
ted to his family largo, weuitit. honcsiiy
accumulated through years of ceas* leas
toil; but unlike the sons of •) many rich
men, his von was imbued with that
energy which is to-day enabling the
young men of the Noutri to nccomp.'idt
such wonders os tho world has rarely
seen. Where el-e in this country is there
n man of 22 years of age, blessed with
abundant wealth that might enabled
him to tako life easy, coming to the
financial rescue of a great industrial en
terprise at u criticoi timo nnd assuming
tho duties und responsibilities of tho
management of a $30 J,000 company and
by his well-directed labors placing it on
u solid hasii* for luluro prosperity. It is
of such material as this that the young
South is made and it is this driving en
ergy of the young men of tho South,
wlio count work more honorable than
idleness, that ia revolutionizing tire in
dustrial history of America.

Good ItoaiU.
From the LaOrantf* Reporter.
We are pleased to see that the tad
roads in Troup county have attracted
the attention of tbe grand jury. The
following extracts which we have culled
from a pamphlet recently issued cn
highway improvement, contain some
good seed thoughts for all our people,
tor all are deeply interested iu ibis sub
ject:
Good roads attract population, as well
as good schools and churches.
Good roads improve the value of prop
erty so that, it is said, a farm lying five
miles from market connected by a bad
road Is of leas value than an equally good
farm lying ten miles from market coa-
nected by a good road.
A larger load can be drawn ly one
horse over a good road than by two over
• bad one.
Atlanta, so that tho visit had to Le pos<
poned to a future time.
The committee, however, called upon
tho lcadiug merchants of Macon, aud
vary where met with words of commen
dation aud oppiLvnl in their work.
They will return home to-day, well
sa< sled that Macon’s business men arc
heartily in sympathy with them and are
anxious iltaUhe roml should pass through
Upson's county m at.
Thomaston will be forty miles nearer to
Macon than lo Atl.antu when the Macon
and Birmingham road is built. At tho
present tbe lrado is divided. When tho
line is built nearly, if not all, will come
here.
The proposition of tho citizens of the
town is about as follows, as will be seen
by tho interview below:
’ll the company will change the survey
and come into Thomaston tbo citizens
will givo depot facilities, tasides paying
for tne extra cost of surveying and con
structing this route, s.) that tho com
pany will not be out of money by the
change.
WHAT HIE COMMITTEE SAYS.
To a Telegraph man last night, a
member of the committee in talking of
the visit said:
“Representing Thomaston, wocamo to
confer w itli the officials of tho M.& B. Rail
road Company and gentlemen interested
In the construction of this road. Wo think
our interest in theirs o: d-theirs ours.
For raoro than half a century Thomas-
ton, liko other county seats, has been
established as a branch of our state
government and her qiolitical and com
mercial progress is identified with Cen
tral Gcoig'u.
Wo appreciate tho action of your
board of trade in our behalf ami our own
pocp'.e assure the company of our desire
road be brrdt through Thow-e-
(on.
••We offer cur cordial co-operation, in
fluence and means to accomplish this
purpose. We would not ask that tho
rood be constructed on any route, except
it be equitable to the company ami to our
people; nor that they should build
through Them tsn n at any io s to tiieni-
selven; and, more than that, our people
►tand ready and willing to givo them
suitable dopot facilities. Wo regret that
on account of the nteenc-e of tho officers
of tho company wo could not submit per
sonally these assurances, but we uru
gratified with tho encouragement re
ceived from tunny of tho pn mincnt busi
ness men of Macon, whose courtesies wo
appreciate, nnd wo hope our commercial
iutcrc.-ti will ultimately bo mutually en
hanced by tbia valuable Hue from Macou
to Birmingham.” %

POLITICAL MEANING OF FEDERATION.
“But behind this is a political idea.
B'dli the Farmers’ Alliance and the
knights are one' politically. There are
poliilcjl evils which nro hampering tho
l>ro<hiciivem‘*B of labor. An injury to
one class of trado affects either di
rectly or Indirectly all other classes.
By an nmulgrimation or federation
tho knighta nnd Fanners’Alliance will
have about three million voter—»n army
so vast tliat politicians will not dare
spurn it.
ALLIANCE MEN EAGER, TOO.
“For over one year we have been re
ceiving letters from prominent men in
the Farmers’ Alliance asking us
to consider the i r.ieticabfiity of nn
cm ilganiotion. The officers of tho
Knights of L ibor will readily throw up
their offices und be sut.sidiary workers in
tho federated orgumzutiou. Senaiulo
men cuunotdispara^e tho magnitude und
inqiortancu of such a step. It
might ^ mean that the two or
ganizations when combined w ill wield
such political power ns to ccnirol the
presidential chair. There are in round
numbers 500.000 men in the Knights of
Labor, while tho Farmers’ Alliance,
which i» mciely in its infancy, has over
2,000,0000 members.
WOULD CONTROL THE PRESIDENCY.
“1 think that if an amalgamation is
brought ahmt, the American Federation,
with its half million of followers,
tho Brotherhood cf Locomotive Kngi-
nceri* with im tunny thfasami* and ether
ft will nrotabiy mean tta birth of a new
political party which will have sufficient
Mi'i-ngth to control the tariff and other
legislation."
