A Splendid Gift.
Out of all the ruck anil rancor aimed
ot the Federal Farm Bureau Federation
•by L. B. .Tuckaou, J. .T. Brown, and other
enemies of the organisation, it is rofrosb
ing to note some of tho good wok it 1ms
done and i» doing, A nows item on our
doak tells of a splendid gift by members
of tho Farm Bureau Federation of tho
Midlilo West for the rollof of tho strav
ing thousands of Europe. It Bays—
“The first two trnln loads of gift
corn from the corn bolt farmern invaded
tho East Inst week, and are now bolng
processed at mills at Genova, N. Y., and
Wilkos-Barro, Pn„ and made ready for
export. The trnln bound for Geneva was
Toaplondont in rod, blnck and white ban
tiers bearing Inscriptions such as
'First Train of Gift Corn to Starving
Europe,’ * Wo Market Our Grain in Re
1l«f, and Take Our Pny in Good Will, 1
nml 'American Farm Bnronu Federation
, Gift Corn to Europe,’ In addition to tho
huge banners strotehing across tho cars,
smaller postors gave the nnmos of tho
State* which contributed to tho train
loads of corn and otlior facts concern
Ing tho movomont. Tho trains wore
routed through Indiana nnd Ohio, making
stops at Elklinrt, Toledo and Cleveland.
Many an Indiana or Ohio farmer, along
tho right-of-way looked up from his
plowing and saw tho gift-corn to which
bo had contributed on its errand of mer-
«y. Tho trainmen donated their tlmo to
tlio hauling of tho grnin, nnd the roads
•gave their oqulpinont. Tho Chicago firm
of Jackson & Bro. gave ovor its organi
zation to tho loading of tho grnin.
That's the true Amorlcan Fnnn Buronu
'Fodorntion spirit I”
Has anybody ovor hoard of tho Fnr-
inors’ Union or other farinors’ organisa
tion doing nnytlilng ns magnificent as
thisT Wo havon’t.
By tho way, tho Stnto Farm Buronu
has recently estahlishod a snlcs agency
for tho huneflt of its memhors, and it is
now in active operation. An example of
tho valuo of this umrkotlng servico may
bo had in considering tho. sweet potato
situation. Georgia is. one of tho loading
Statos of the South in tho production of
sweat potatoes, but on Account of inad
equate storage facilities and lack: of
■touch with dosirnblo markets, tho crop
has not hoon ns profitable as it might
boro boon, and, should lip. . With tho drop
in tho price of cotton, and' tho roducod
yield on neemint' of hell woovil damage,
twice ns many potatoes will'-bo grown
' Oils year as wore ovor raised boforo, nnd
it eras for tho purpose of providing an
nutlet for the crop end its proper lmnd-
Hng that tho Farm Burcn snles ngoncy
' has boon created. This will ho under tho
wiporvislou of n mnungor who is thor

* tho country nnd familiar with tho proper
' handling nnd marketing of swoot. pota
to!*. Other commodity divisions will bo
orcaiiiited upon tho sumo linos, to tho end
' that ultimately a considerable portion of
1 tho crops qf Georgia may bo mnrkoted
'through ono great organization.

'"DON’T WANT NO MORE LEAD
ERS."
One of my noighborB whom I will call
.John Jones—that is,not his name, of
. coarse, but it will nnswor for the purpose
- Of this article—camo back a fow morn
ings »nco from nn inspection of his brag
. ootion putch near by, which ho had been
nursing and tending with much care, and,
passing uij- gate, stopped for a chat, as
top .frequently does. Now, John is a good
fellow'—a bit tcmpommontal, porhnps—
that is to say, at times ho is carried away
ker enthusiasm ovor aomo now scheme
proposed to help tho "poor, downtrodden
fbrmor,” nnd nt other times just about
as downhearted because of tho failure
of said "scheme" to materialize. On
tho morning referred to ho had found
tool! weevils stirring about among his
young cotton, and was consequently
marh depressed.
1 1’m plumb dUguBted with every
thin’,” ho bogan, "un’ feci like qiiittin’
for good.- Horo I am nigh on to sixty*
year old, an’ dunged if I ain>t poorer
than I was when I started. Nothin ’
turnB out right for mo. ’Bout when I
think I’vb Bortor got my benrin’s and
cun begin to soe'abend a little, sump’ll
alius happens to fling mo back. Scorns
liko everythin ’ I tocli blows up or gets
squshod somehow. I begun my fool cn-
roor nearly thirty yenr ago. 1 jinoil
tho Farmers’ Alliance, which was sweep-
in’ the country in them days. I thought
Jerry Simpson an’ old Lon Livinston
was the biggest men in Amoriky, but
soon’s Livinston got elected to Congress
nn’ a lot of other Alliance loaders got
a office of some kind tho thing foil
through. Then Tom Watson ho rlz up
an ’ said there wasn’t nothin ’ to the
Alliance no more—that the politicians
had ruint It—and nskod tho boys to
come with him into, the Populist party
an’ ho’d see that they got what was
comin ’ to ’em. I thon went in with the
Pops, an’ most all iny neighbors quit
speakin ’ to mo for deserting the Dorn
myerats. But I stuck it out for a spell,
nn' then, begosh, tho next thing that
happoned Watson was runnin’ for Con
gross on the Populist tickot. That come
purty nigh shaking my confidence in lm
nmn iiatur’, for I lmd mighty high hopes
of Watson, ho tnlkod so fuir. Thar was
othor loaders that rlz up from time to
time, but I was plumb discouraged an
paid no ’tention to ’em. I’d followed
Jerry Simpson an' old Lon Livinston an
they’d lod mo into tho woods an’ left
mo to find my way out tho boat I could
1 ’d followed Tom Watson, nn ’ he led
mo into a briar patch, an’ I come purty
nigh losin’ my pants tryin’ to git out,
they-was tore so bad. But the wust
took In I ever wob was whon this fellow
J. J. Brown come along—his first name
ought to bo Jaw Jaw, sooms to mo, con
slderin’ tho mouthin’ way he latherdd
us farmers with his soft soap an’ sicli,
tryin ’ to make us bolleve ho was the only
sho’ ’nougli friend tho farmors had in
Goorgy. I’d bocomo ’spicious of every
body by that tlmo anil was slow 'bout
bitin’, but evonchully I fell for his talk
and was bogipnln’ to fool like maybe
IM hung up with tho real thing at lust
nn’ that he’d pint tho way to salvation
for us farmers. Woll, sir, I’d hoard
him speak in Newnan whin he was goin’
'bout ovor the State organizin’ this here
’Morlcan Cotton Association, nn’ lid
sho’ did rnlso my sporits. He told ub
fnrmors tho association was for our ben
efit exclusive, an’ wo all trod on one
nnotliors’ toes tryin’ to git to tho secre
tary an’ Imvo our names put down ns
mombors nt so much per head. Wo kep’
waitin’ for sump’n to como out of this,
but I nin’t got mine yit. Just whon I
was boginnln’ to lose lionrt ‘long como
Hnrvio Jordan Inst August nnd spike in
Newnan. He said tho 'Merican Cotton
Association was nil right, ’cause ho..was
secretary and know'd wlmt he was talk-
in ’ ’bout. Said tho association was doin ’
a great work nnd not to bo discouraged ;
that thiso big movements lmd to have
timo in order to show rosults. He then
told us farmers to stick together an J we
could do anythin’ we wanted; that tho
world whs, half naked and wns obleogcd
to have ; our cotton t that it dost us ; 38
cents to make it, an’'on- no. account
ought to bo sold for less’n 40 cents; In
fact, ho wouldn’t be ’sprised' if it wont
ns high ub 50 conts. Well, sir, the court-
house wi(8 plumb full of peoplo, an’ tliey
whooped mi ’ yelled, an ’ we nil wont away
foelln ’ mighty good. What hope our
foolin’s still more was what J. J'. Brown
kopt suyin’ in Ids speeches an’ in the
newspapers, advisln ’ tho farmers to hold
their cotton for 40 cents; that Europe
had to have it, an’ all we had to do was
to sot stoddy in the boat an ’ pny no ’ten
tion to what tho cotton gamblers and
Wall street said. Well, I s'posed of
course that Brown niid Jordan, bein’ on
tho inside ns you might say, know’d wlmt
they was talkin’ ’bout, nn’ so 1 licit my
cotton. I didn’t have but five bales,
boll weevils glttin ’ most of my crap last
year, an’ It seemed to mo like I was
obleeged to have 40 cents for it bi order
to come out anywheres nigh even. I was
offered 20 cents for it in Newnan one day,
but I wouldn’t take it, an' I’ve .got that
cotton yit. Now, what in thunder’s goin’
to 'come of mo I don’t know. I do
know one thing, though—I ain ’t a-goin’
to follow no more (eadors as lbng as I
live. I’m done, and dadburn my pictur’
if I don’t do my own loadin ’ hereafter.

Neighbor Jones' ease appealed to me,
for lie is a straightforward, hard-work
ing man nnd good citizen, but I saw no
way to help him out of the doldrums
into which he had fallen. I wondered,
though, how many other Joneses there
were in Coweta county who had suffered
in liko manner from bad (bdvicB and
worse leadership. Some cases I know of
are really pitiful. Cincinnati^.
