Don’t gl^fcxcited; don’t be misled.
The present flurry will cut no ice with
the prosperity of this country. The
prices of things are not inflated; they
are simply about right. There are a
few exceptions, and cotton is one of
the exceptions. Cotton has had the
whole gambling world combined in a
fight for low prices. The bear manip
ulators have not hesitated to use any
and all possible means to ruin the
prices. They have finally played their
last card, and in the scramble have
lost out and have bankrupted many
of their friends. This is the begin
ning of the bear stampede. They have
sold cotton for future delivery at all
sorts of low prices and the day for
the delivery comes on apace. What
are they going to do about it? The
available cotton for delivery will be
bound to become exhausted soon. Then
that in the warehouses will be requisi
tioned, and if the holders stand for
the best price there is nothing under
the sun to prevent their getting that
price, so long as it is not a prohibitory
one. Fifteen cents is not prohibitory,
and it is right there the .price should
stick, and there it will stick till the
time comes to make it higher still.
Have you given the hog pen the
attention it should have? All over the
South there is a continual cry for more
hogs with which to supply the pack
eries and the local butchers. This
should not be so. Nowhere else can
hogs be so easily raised, and nowhere
else can they be so easily prepared
for the market. They have proven
the best mortgage lifters the West
has ever found, and they would prove
even more efficient in the South and
the Southwest. The demand can not
be at all supplied, and this is a diversi
fication that is so cheap that any one,
even the poorest tenant, can engage
in it even if it be on a small scale.
Get some pigs now!
Here are some good suggestions for
your kitchen: Have your shades and
curtains of white muslin that can be
laundered. When using your gas stove
in the summer, cover tne top of your
coal range with newspapers, which
will make a handy table. Have your
rack near the stove, so that your tow
els will get well dried after each dish
washing. A small shelf should be put
up near the stove to hold your salt
and pepper box. Cover the back wall
of your sink with oil cloth, preferably
white, and here may be hung your
broom, shovel, dish mop and soap box.
In a box or drawer may be kept the
necessary articles for ironing. The
top may be covered with oil cloth, and
will give an extra table. A chest C?
drawers is useful and almost neces
sary for keeping the kitchen towels
and aprons, besides many other useful
articles. It is well to keep in the
kitchen a bottle of linseed oil and lime
water, together with a roll of old linen
pieces for bandages, for use in case
of burns.
The ‘ financiers” have had their inn
ing, and there is a good deal of cotton
in the hands of the raisers yet.
So long as the farmer goes round
with his mouth hung down as if he
were ready for the last great day to
come, so long will you hear of the
“hoys leaving the farm.” There Is no
sense in the farmer always playing
the part of the poorest man on earth.
It is his privilege to be all that there
is in a man, and it is his duty to
• magnify his calling.” The “scared
cat” farmer will hardly inspire a boy
that is worth his salt to stay on the
farm. ___
The number of members in your
Union does not cut so much figure
in the final accounting as does the
quality of men who make up the mus
ter roll. At the top of this country's
big enterprises are only a few men.
There are not so many top-notchers.
Get the right sort of people, then the
rest is easy.
As the constant drop of water wear*
away the hardest stone, we hope that
the continual pounding on the road
question will bring things to pass that
will awaken the farmer to the faot
that the building of goods roads Is of
more importance to him than to any
body else. When a subscription is
taken up and the merchant puts down
a good, round sum, it may be safely
written that the sum is to be made
off the farmer; for the merchant has
no other source of getting money. The
ultimate reduction is that the build
J ing of the roads must be done by
the farmer either directly or indirect
ly—voluntarily or by circumlocution.
The time to make a split-log drag
is today.
The farmer is not a letter writer,
and he is not interested in the cheap
postage idea. That is a matter that
must be looked after by the man who
wants to circularize the country at a
letter rate of postage. What the
farmer is interested in is Cheaper
freight rates. He is the ultimate pay
er of all freights, because he is the
producer. It makes no difference how
complicated the civilization may be
come, it always gets back to the farm
er—the man who digs the wealth out
of the country to pay the freight. He
is the source of all the money, hence
it is up to him to put up for the costs
of the case when reduced to its final
conclusion.
Remember that the only wealth of
the South, comparatively speaking, is
that of the farm or the results of
successful farming. The bulk of the
fortunes made in the West have come
from land speculation. This is ulti
mately 'at the expense of the farmer,
who has to pay the high price of the
land, and must work the harder and
the closer to make a living on account
of the high price of the land.
These are piping times of peftce
now, and it would be a good thing for
you to get in a shape so that “noth
ing will hurt you,” if one of those
ever recurrent “hard times” should
set in. While it is easy to make the
money to pay for it, keep the boys
and the girls in the school. Maybe it
will not be so easy a little later on
to do this.
If the cotton growers are in dead
earnest about the matter of helping
the cotton industry, they will wrap
the bales in cotton. This would con
sume the difference between too much
cotton and not quite enough, and
would cut out the low price of a sur
plus crop. This would happen in
years of bumper crops, to say noth
ing of the good it would do during
years of short crops.
"A Feather in One’s Cap.”
Our expression, “A feather in one’s
cap,” originated in Hungary in 1599.
At that time it was an ancient custom
among the Hungarians th?t no one
■was permitted to wear a feather in his
hat unless he had killed a Turk. It
was a law that for each slain Turk the
slayer should be allowed to wear one
feather.—The Sunday Magazine.
