about. When it is evident that there
coming an overproduction of any
manufactured article, the shops ar
unge for a slowing up. This is th
ou > safety in the matter of profitable
productKm. The machinery is put to
making something else, or it stands
Idle until trade picks up and the de
mand is enlarged. This is the only
sensible thing to do under such cir
cumstances. In two ways this keeps
'ip the price. The first is by not cre
ating a surplus that would either have
to be held at a loss or unloaded at a
sacrifice, and again it keeps the price
in a condition of fixity, a thing which
cotton planters have striven for for
many years. This lesson should sink
deep into the minds of those whose
interests are in the cotton fields. If
too much cotton to reasonably supply
the demand is raised, it must either
be held and the inteiest, insurance,
shrinkage, etc., must come out of the
price it finally brings, or else it must
go at such a sacrifice that somebody
buy it for sheer cheapness. It
mattes no difference how much soph
Istry interested people may weave
around the holding and warehouse
proposition, these are self-evident
truths. The warehouse is a useful in
stitution, and it should be fully used
to avoid dumping the whole crop into
the market in a heap, as has been the
custom heretofore, so congesting the
market, the yards, the transportation
facilities, and so depleting the money
market that those who buy must do
so at a sacrifice, thus lowering the
price for a time. That is the end and
aim of the warehouse proposition and
anyone with common sense enough to
lead a blind goose to water ought to
know this. Whatever will inevitably
affect the price of anything offered
and usually sold on the market will
affect the price and demand for cot
! ton. The remedy is dear easy: Don’t
plant too much cotton. It is the duty
of the union to look after this matter.
It should be in a position to know
what is the probable acreage, and it
should deal this information out to its
members, and they should act upon it
in the same way the manufacturers
act about their production. They have
blazed the way to profit-making busi
nesses, and if the farmers have the
sense to “follow your leader” they
will exercise the same sense that is
exercised by the manufacturers. They
will diversify, and not. diversify by>
simply changing from one crop to an
other, but they will plant a variety of
crops, and can thus meet a varied mar
ket. thus catching an even average of
all the market. This is what unionism
is built for.
The way to unionize is to unionize.
This means that you are to unite with
those in the same line of business for
the mutual betterment of all in that
line. It also means that you ought to
have sense enough to keep out of all
sorts of entangling alliances with
those who may want to use you as a
cat's paw for raking out choice, juicy
chestnuts for their own delectation.
The point of this lies in its practical
application to things that have been,
and are even now, being pressed by
schemers who want to use the Farm
ers’ Union to carry out the ends that
have no comomn benefit to the farnjgr.
If you go out and solicit a few men
to join your local, you will become a
better union man. You will thus class
ify and enlarge your reasons for the
existence of the organization, and you
will be led to get out of it more of the
benefits it can bestow.
Have you put a thorn into the flesh ;
of the vehicle and implement trust
lately? Build a good shelter for all
your implements and every tool on
the place, and you will cut your bill in
two, and the trade of these blood
suckers in two at the same time.
minimum of the farmers,
The growth of the Farmers’ Union
,s one °f I he wonders of these times,
f' >'om a quiet but earnest talk In
which five farmers participated it has
grown to be a mighty organization,
numbering 1,400,000 members In 28
States. The South is fairly covered
h.v it, and it remains today an organi
zation of farmers, by farmers, for
farmers. There are few or no dema
gogues or politicians in it. It standi
foi everything that will help the farm
j or, and the South has no organization
that is more efficient today or that
promises to be more helpful in the
future. It aims to induce the farmers
who grow cotton to act as one man
in the marketing of their chief cash
crop, and its success in that, direction
has been satisfactory and beneficial.
The organization sitting at Little
Hock has just placed a 15-cent mini
mum upon the new cotton crop. There
are plenty of men who will attack
this minimum, but the assailants are
not farmers. The farmers think that
when all other products are command
ing higher prices, cotton should bring
15 cents. The farmers are entitled to
a larger compensation in an expen
sive era, and the law of supply and
demand is supporting them in their
reasonable demands. The minimum
named at Little Rock was not hurried
ly or carelessly determined. It is the
result of a cautious and comprehen
sive survey of the entire situation,
and if the members of the union tfill
stand loyally up to it, surprising good
may flow from it. The prosperity of
the South is tied up in the proposition
and cordial co-operation on the part
of the members of the Farmers’ Un
ion can carry it to a glorious consum
mation.—Birmingham Age-Herald.
It is the builder and not the destroy
er who benefits the human race.
If your local meeting drags, it may
he that you have done nothing to liven
it up.
Clean out all the fence corners and
fenae row^ so as to get rid of the wee
vil hatcheries.
This is the week to make your split
log drag, and all the balance of them
will be good for its use.
No bad man is on the habit of liv
ing on fruit and among flowers of his
own culture. Did you ever notice this?
I believe that we cannot live better
than in seeking to become better, nor
more agreeably than in having a clear
conscience.—Socrates.
Don’t let the fellow who is waiting
; to see ‘whacher goin’ to do” wait any
! longer. Get him in and put him on
i the first principles. Educate him and
broaden him so that he will be of use
to somebody.
You can’t be a good Union farmer
untess you are keeping up with the
times. You can't keep up unless you
read the newspapers. Take time to
keep in touch with what is going on
in the world.
It is a feature of pride to many lo
cals that not a year is allowed to pass
which does not show at least one tree
about the meeting place planted for
each member of the local. That is a
mighty good idea, isn’t it? Le it be
come common.
The man who lives off of speculation
is of no benefit to the human race.
Let him starve into some useful occu
pation. Only the man who does necqp
sary or work of art can be of use as
a worker, and that one whose employ
ment is not in necessary lines is a
drone, and he is a burden.
It is funny what a lot of politicians
are becoming advocates of the Farm
ers Union. The same fellows a little
while ago were not so friendly and
had some remarks to make about “an
other bubble.”
Don’t act the usual fool this year
and buy some of the new-fangled fruit
| trees that will revolutionize the world.
Buy good tried stock from reliable
and well-known nurserymen. You
might do a little experimenting, but
do it in a small way, and let your ex
periments be a side-show, and not
the "main tent.”
