I FARMERS’ EDUCATIONAL^
AND
CO OPERATIVE UNION
OF AMERICA
Just Keeps on Growing.
Taking everything into considera
tion that was brought to bear on the
farmers to force them to part with
their cotton, and the brave fight they
have made to control the price
against the fearful odds is certainly
something to be admired. The farm
ers are fast gaining recognition in the
business world and the Farmers'
Union is responsible for it. There was
a time, and not very long ago, either,
when to speak of organizing the farm
ers for business purposes would pro
voke a sneer or uncomplimentary re
mark from some one, but that time is
past. The farmer has been organized
and he is sticking and he hasn’t gone
into politics, either. Of late we have
made it a point to interview some par
ties who have made a study of the
cotton market, and they were men of
experience, and they all agree that
the movement inaugurated by the
Farmers' Union to hold cotton and
market slowly has held up the price
of cotton this season and saved the
south from $5 to $15 per bale. Certain
papers told us Iasi fall that the farm
ers east of the Mississippi river were
selling their cotton as fast as they
gathered it, and we fellows here In
Texas were foolish for holding cotto.i
and trying to control the market. Now
these fellows were smart—they even
admitted that they were—-but they
were as ignorant as a donkey regard
ing the cotton situation, as they were
trying to mislead the farmers. Inves
tigation proved that farmers east of
the Mississippi river were holding a
larger per cent of their cottton ihr.n
Texas farmers. So, boys, get your
information from headquarters. Heed
not the ‘'posted" fellow.—.1. A. Cole- I
man, in Greenville (Tex.) Banner.
That's Right; Let ’Em Run It.
It seems that of all the most foolish
things we* have ever heard, the most
foolish is that a member of the Farm
ers' Union had a right to open his
mouth about any political question.
Now, the idea of a man trying to '•'laim j
Ids rights its a free-born American ;
citizen! We must not discuss any ik> i
litical subjects for educational pur- I
poses, or for any other reason. \Ve i
must simply pass our resolutions, but
leave the law-making and executing of
the laws to the other fellows—they a
smart, we are not: they know what
the law ought to be. we cion'*: we
might pass a law that would help us.
and keep them from sucking the public
treasury and cause a political stir;
leave that to them; it’s their business
All we have to do is to pay the bills—
let them make the bills. They don t
make them according to the constitu
tion every time, but what difference is
it ? They can call a special session.
It doesn't cost but $50,000 extra- and
change their laws to suit. We must
not monkey with politics! Why, that
would be trespassing on the rights cf
others; as for us, well—we needn’t
have any rights—just go on and re
solve, but don't say politics; don't say
country schools; don’t improve I he
county roads; dun’t diversify your
crops-'-but go right on in the same old
ruts and be happy and forever more
contented.—The Farmer’s and Union
Guide.
._ \_
I think more of us farmers ought to
raise more corn, wheat, oats, rye. peas
and hay than so much cotton. Then
we could get something for our cot
ton. T think we ougflt to set our mice
on our cotton and produce and keep it
at home until we get our price, and
say noth ng about the price; keep it mi
the Union. What about this, brother?
Would not this be a good idea?—Mrs.
M. F. Slaughter, in Union News.
You no doubt have a fine court
house, and you are mighty proud of it.
It is a flue tribute of your generosity
to see you provide a fine place for
your officials to transact their busi
ness. while you are transacting much
of yojirs out in the mud, belly-deep to
your team. Yes, it is rather too gen
(tous to comport with common sense. I
l.i ace up and build good roads!
Don’t laugh at. the farmer who is
thinking of buying an automobile. He
is simply leading where you will soon
be following. An auto is a good thing
for the farmer and for his teams, pro
vided he makes a goon thing of it. but
as a time waster, to the fellow who is
faddishly inclined, it takes the whole
bakery.
It is mighty late to talk about the
value of gooil seed, but the point to be
made is this: The importance of the ,
use of good seed for the balance of ]
your plantings is as imperative as it
was for that part yo uhave already
planted. Get good seed; it is$ as im
portant as are good breeds of live stock
and fowls.
A farm that only makes a living
after working it in a reasonably dili
gent way is not worth having. You
can make a living without a farm with
any reasonable opportunity and dili
gence, so that it appears that the farm
is in money invested in a poor way,
if a living is all you get out of it.
All good farmers are fighting the im
plement and vehicle trust by taking
care of the tools and vehicles they
have on hand. Then, too, they are
doing better work by keeping the tools
iu good, usable condition.

Just tell ’em ’at you saw it in The Journal
Irregularity is bad in every department of life, in meals, in sleeping hours,
but especially when it is a question of womanly habit. Not only is ii a sign of
female disease, but, unless cured, it will cause dangerous troubles, because of
the poisons thus allowed to remain in the system.
If you suffer in this way, get a bottle of
Wine of Cardui
Mrs. Lucinda Johnson, of Fish Creek, Wis., writes: “I suffered for fourteen (14) years with irregu
larity, causing great pain. At last l tried Cardui, and now I am cured.” At all druggists, in $1 bottles.
