I FARMERS' EDUCATIONAL |
AND
CO-OPERATIVE UNION
learn to grade C OTTO IN,
j So That You May Know What You
Sell.
i Congressman Albert Burleson of
i has a bill pending in Congress
| to instruct and direct the National Ag
ricultural Department to appoint a
commission of experts to prepare a
table of grades for cotton, not to ex
ceed thirteen in number, these thir
teen grades, middling being the basis,
to be the official ruling and legal
grades in all cotton sales and trans
actions.
President Roosevelt, In his message
to the Congress when it met in regular
session last December, recommended
the enactment of a law establishing an
official and legal grade table for grain,
and what is right, proper and good for
grain is right, proper and good for cot
ton. The principles involved are iden
tical and the necessities in the one in
stance are as imperative as in the
other.
Every market has its own tables and
systems of grading farm products sold
by grade and every buyer has his sys
tems and methods, all of them wholly
one-sided and arbitrary and rendering
the producer defense’- ss to save him
self from being imposed upon, K any
one should be desirous of taking ad
vantage of him. It certainly seems to
be eminently fair and just that the
government should fix legal systems
that cannot be deviated from noi
changed, save by the government «t
self, the power creating them.
How many grain growers, how many
cotton raisers, old or young, earn sam
ple and grade their products? Ar<
they not always at the mercy of the
buyer, whoever or whatever they may
be, as to the quality of their goods? A
farmer would be ashamed of himsel.
if he couldn’t examine a horse's moo
and tell its age; look over its body an
limbs and detect all its blemish'
spavins, windgalls, etc., or tell abo
its eygs; or be ignorant of the thing
he should know when be went to be
milch cows, or beef cattle, or hogs.
Then, why should be be ignorant o
the quality of his wheat, or corn, or
oats, or cotton?
The Farmers Union saw the point
early in its life and began the move
ment to educate its young men along
these lines and established cotton
grading schools in the South. Now wo
see the business colleges advertising
a cotton-grading department in their
courses of study. Really, the agricul
tural colleges of the States should
teach these things. Through the ef
forts of National President C. S. Bar
rett the agricultural college of Georgia
has add 1 the grading of cotton to its
curriculum. Every agricultural coi
lege has its textile department, anu
the grading of cotton could readily be
made a part of the course of learning
in these departments. Each one of
these colleges also teaches its student
how to grow grains, and it would hr
very easy to add how to grade them.
Especially will it he easy for these col
leges, for the business colleges and fe
the Farmers’ Union cotton schools t<
teach these things i the government
will establish fixed grades so that
ing the same thing.—Co-Operator.
Farming Is An Intricate Business.
A man who has never been able to
make a living al anything else will
probably fail if he undertakes farm
ing. Farming is not the vocation of
poor managers or lazy men. To mak'
a successful farmer requires as much
intelligence as it does to succeed In
any other line of business or profes
sion.—Valley Mills (Texas) Tribune.
No man is a good citizen who does
not own a home or is not striv ing
to own one. The renter has nothing
at stake in any place. He can “move
on” when things do not go to suu
him. The home owner will do some
thing to make things better when they
go wrong. Get a home, and then
help the other fellow to do the same.
T
You may depend ni\ it that you are
your brother’s keeper.
Why, yes. it is likely that there is a
cotton holding trust all fixed up among
the cotton raisers. Suppose there is;
it is a trust that we can make the
spinners and he handlers of our prod
ucts pay something like its worth. H
that sort of a trust is wrong, we are
going to stay wrong. Do you her.
that, Bud?
Did you ever notice how much more
respect you have for the man who has
some flowers growing around his place
than you have for the fellow whose
yard is a brier patch? Well, the world
is sizing you up the same way. Get
busy getting into the ranks of the re
spectable.
All those trees you planted last fall
will need some attention this summer
if they do well. Keep the grass away
from them, and be sure that they are
not eaten down by the stock. They
will pay for all the trouble they cost.
Were your stock protected from
those blizzards that came down occa
sionally during the winter? If not,
you have failed to be a good man. The
merciful man Is merciful to his beast.
When you get ready to plant a
mortgage, remember that you are tying
a drag to your foot that will get heav
ier as the days of its existencet multi
ply.
And the Southwest is coming to the
front on diversification. This is a
thing that the Union should stand for
and strive for all the time.
Look out for the mortgage moth. It
is wonderfully insidious, and it will
eat you up dre you are aware if you
don’t look out.
It is part of the business of the
Union to help men to groV and broad
en out. If your Union is not helping
to make better men of its members, it
is falling down on an opportunity, and
you are partly responsible for this sin
of omissiou.
Don’t forget that the great God of
all creation never gave to any man the
right to take and appropriate to his
own gratification anything that he real
ly has no use for. This is as applica
ble to the dirt as it is to the water
and the air
It would be rather a surprise to see
a man who never had a brush in hi;
hand take up the colors and lay a pic
ture that equaled the work of the luiu
practical artist. It is just as reas
able to expect us to make a perfect
working organization that will undo
those organizations that have required
years to build up against us.

Diversity is a fine cure for adversity.
Be sure to work for better schools
and better roads.
Good roads should not be lost sight
of in our anxiety for oth r things.
Too many people think of benefits
to be derived right now.
Let everybody puil together for a

Everybody get in training for the
