THE MAN BEHIND THE PLOW.
He Is the Prime, Essential Man the
World Needs.
There are but few things in this
world that are so attractive, so sub
stantially needed, so universally de
fended upon, so unreservedly discrimi
nated against, as “the man behind the
plow.”
“The man behind the plow” has for
several years in the past played but a
small part in the affairs of State, po-^
litically, financially or scientifically, so
far as his laying plans and carrying
them out are concerned.
We have reached the day, however,
when “the man behind the plow” :s
going to have something to say. He is
going to be heard, and he had better
be heeded. The people who will con
tinue their efforts to press him will no
doubt be wiped off the face of the
earth, for he is in no condition or tem
per to be trifled wtih any longer. He
is not unreasonable in his demands.
He is not over-exacting in his obliga
tions, but he is determined and un
flinching when he is once aroused to
the point where he will battle for his
rights, and to that point he has been
aroused in the last three years.
“The man behind the plow" is, has
been, and will ever be "the staff of our
nation’s life.” Without him our coun
try would be weak, insignificant, poor
and unrespected, but with him we are
powerful, wre are rich, we are honored,
we are strong. ThEm why should not
“the man behind the plow” have a
voice? Why should he not command
and be obeyed? Why should he not
say Go, and the balance of our people
go? Why should he not say Come,
and the classes of our nation come?
Again we ask why, and we call on the
world to answer why the farmers
should not be the most respected, the
most intelligent and the most com
manding people of our nation?
We do not want to pat the farmer on
the hack, or boost him, hut we simply
want to express facts, and just here
we want to say that if the farmer does
not occupy the place to which he is en
titled, he has nobody to blame but
himself. If he,is willing to sit idly by
and see others usurp the authority and
powers that belong to him, and grind
the very life blood out of his wife and
children, certainly he can look upon
himself as nothing etse but a sorry
knave.—Union News.
It's a Tarnal Shame!
And there's our boys our there in
the cohl of winter, who h.ve raised
enough cotton this season to clothe a
hundred people comfortably—yet they
have not decent clothes to wear, their
feet are on the ground and our (Id,
broken-down school house is too un
comfortable far them to si; :.i in the
v inter, and the roads are so had, too!
Did you say, What about the summed"?
Well, our boys will hav to help ,is
plow then, and they can't 20 to -cnool:
besides, what’s the use? Our b »y s and
girls ought not to have any schooling:
it’ gets that fool idea into their heads
that they are as good as yie boys a id
cirls of the towns. They are better
off here working to help keep in debt
on cotton raising and corn mying
They say that since the Union start
ed to making us folks get that foo! no
tion that we were somebody, that we
have gone like a set of howling apes
and brought on a panic, and that we
should he ashamed of ourselves for
this. Several poor speculators who
have been accustomed to the very best
of everything had to go to the wall be
cause we sat still and wouldn’t sell our
cotton; but we notice that notwith
standing they say they lost everything,
their children are still going to the
best schools, they still hang to their
organizations and keep supporting
their papers. You see, it’s all right for
them to do this, for they know how;
and then it’s wrong to even think of
any of them ever disgracing them
selves with a little work. The skin
would rub off their pretty, delicate
hands, and their friends would no
longer be friends to them.—F. I*, i
Guide. !
When one takes into consideration
the vast values produced by the farm
ers, and realize,* that all this is mar
keted and sold without the semblance
of a 'system, and at a loss in many
ways reaching into a large percentage
of the value of the products, then it be
gins to dawn upon him why the Farin
ns’ Union is in existence. Great as
these losses are, they are no greater
than the losses from unsystematic
farming, slipshod planning and lack of
concert in planting, raising and.har
vesting. There are plenty of things I
for the Union to do.
Don’t let your elections pass without
your exercising your privileges as an
American citizen. Then, if you get |
licked, take your medicine like a man, |
and if you win, conduct yourself like j
one who has assumed a responsibility,
rather than one who has come into a |
heritage.
There is no certain way of eradicat- j
ing the boll weevil, but the birds will I
help you, and the sooner your crop j
p.atures the better for you. Between j
the birds and yourself vuo ought to be i
j.ble to Keep the weevil within bounds.

What is medicine for? To cure you, if sick, you say.
But one medicine will not cure every kind of sickness, because different
medicines act on different parts of the body. One medicine goes to the liver,
another to the spine, Wine of Cardui to the womanly organs. So that is why
Wine of Cardui
has proven so efficacious in most cases of womanly disease. Try it.
Mrs. Wm. Turner, of Bartonville, 111., writes: “1 suffered for years with female diseases, and doctored
without relief. My back and head would hurt me. and 1 suffered agony with bearing-down paina. At last
1 took Wine of Cardui and now I am in good health.” Sold everywhere. In $1.00 bottles
