People who must have their living ofl
o you, but for the use such a market
to you.
If you are at all interested in living
a fuU, well-rounded life, the meetings
of the local offer you a grand opportu
nity to do this, it is the place to be
or use to your less fortunate fellow
man; it is the place to pour out the
good ideas you have stored up, and it
is the place to be filled with the ad
vanced thought of your thinking neigh
bor.
^Ve may look ror some speculation
all along the line, but the play with
cotton is pretty well over. It will go
up sometimes and it will go down
sometimes, but the old-time “toying
with fortune on the market”is about
ended.
There will never be a time that
things are right until the intention cf
Nature and Nature’s God are exem
plified in the even distributon of land,
air and water to all men alike. Tho
man who can bring the germ that will
start this great reform will go down
in history as one of the greatest liber
ators that have ever lived.
Don’t get scared at the wild pitch
ings of the speculator. If you hold
your cotton and keep your eating
truck, we can’t see how the poor dev
il is going to accomplish your ruin
very soon.
How have you behaved by your part
ner this week? Remember that the
first thing the Union contends for is
EQUALITY, and on no other thing
does it insist so strongly as on equal
division of the products of labor. Give
her all the Improved helps you can and
then remember that the household
work is a mighty uninteresting field
at best
It Is so important that good seed
be planted that we can’t refrain from
again telling you that you ought to
now pick out the seed for the next
year's crop. Good seed is as import
ant as good breed among the stock.
You have had the need of good breeds
exemplified so often that, you do not
need any hint along that line, but so
many planters go on planting poor
seed that a little jar right here ought
to do good.
Oh, yes, the Farmer’s Union is *a
trust,' but we are trusting ourselves
this time. We are not going to do
anything oppressive, but we will have
to have “ours” sure.
If you have not cleaned out the hug
nests in the fence corners before this,
get busy at it right now. Don’t let
them stay there till next spring to
harbor mice and insects and as a
storehouse for noxious seeds.
Good health is very much the result
of good habits and good food and wa
ter. if your habits are not right, you
need to correct them; if you are feed
ing wrong, it is a good time to com
mence over along that line; if your
water is bad .good galvanized cisterns
are not very costly.
Removal of the Stomach.
The entire stomach was first suc
cessfully removed by Schlatter, of
Zurich, in 1897. B. Vasallo, a sur
geon of Argentina, reports having now
performed 17 pylorectomies, and con
siders the gravity of these operations
more apparent than real. Four
months after the last complete re
moval of this organ, the patient was
in excellent health, with no inconve
nience except the necessity of eating
often and but little at a time.
IMPORTANT FARM IMPLEMENT,
A Plain Talk on the Modern Harrow*
and Their Use.
The harrow is a necessity on every j
farm, and whether that farm be large j
or small. The principal use of the har- ,
row is to pulverize the soil. The im
plement came into use after men
learned that it was advisable to re
duce the soil to as fine a state as pos
sible. The harrow has been greatly
improved since it came into use. The
little old three-cornered or wedge- (
shaped harrow having wooden teeth
soon gave way to a harrow having
iron teeth, and that had to give place
to the harrow with steel teeth. Now
all harrows have teeth of steel, but
these take a multitude of forms. Some
of the teeth are merely hooks, some
are still straight spikes, others are a
multitude of little plowshares In their
effects on the soil, while still others
are discs. The great number of styles
show the great interest taken in the
putting out of a harrow having the
greatest possible power of fining the
soil. Any farmer will find himself
well repaid by making some study of
this matter of harrows. He will be
perhaps surprised to find that one
kind of harrow will do the best on
one soil and another kind of harrow
on another soil; for the reason that
different soils respond best to differ
ent conditions. On some farms where
the soils are diverse in character and
where different crops are being grown
it will pay farmers to have several
harrows of different styles. The soil
should not be harrowed when wet,
because in that condition it is im
possible to pulverize it. When wet
the harrow would but make some of
the soil more compact. When the soil
Is in a state to crumble the harrow
should be put in and be used behind
a good team of horses, as a rapid har
rowing will give a better pulveriza
tion than a slow harrowing. The
finer the soil the better will the plants
be able to get the fertility that is in
it. A soil that is not well fined is
full of lumps little and big. The roots
do not penetrate these lumps to a
large extent. But in these lumps is
much fertility that is rendering no
service at all. Plants growing in thor
oughly pulverized soil, says Farm
er’s Review, will send out more roots
than plants growing in poorly pul
verized soil. The more roots the
more rootlets, and the more rootlets
the more thoroughly will the plants
be supplied with plant food. In
soils thoroughly pulverized and that
are supplied with an abundance of
plant food the crops increase with
surprising rapidity. Manure on such
land gives the greatest possible re
turns. On poorly pulverized land it
may take years for much of the barn
yard manure to become available. As
a means, therefore, of better utilizing
the barnyard manure, harrows should
be used freely. Often it pays to
harrow a field several times. The
many modfern harrows now on the ;
market make it inexpedient to use the
old crude affairs, even though they
may still be found in the toolhouses
of some of our modern farms.
SOMEBODY’S SCARED.
Did you ever stand on the street
and see the Farmers’ Union men drive
into town with cotton, day after day,
and drive straight to the Farmers’
Union warehouse, without stopping on
the street, unload their cotton, take
their receipt and drive the wagon back
home, without ever stopping to ask
anybody any questions about the price
of cotton? Well, if you did not you
should observe, and then just after a
few loads of cotton had been unloaded
in the wagon walk around the corner
and view the face and beclouded coun
tenance of the little street cotton spec
ulator, who in the past has been rob
bing the farmers of their hard-earned
money.
Yes, “Be-Dad,” the boys mean busi
ness this time sure as you are born,
and the cotton speculators will either
get wise or grow gray-headed before
the season is over.—Barnesville (Ga.)

The ills peculiar to women, take different forms.
Some ladies suffer, every month, from dark rings round their eyes, blotches on their skin and tired
feeling. Others suffer agonies of pain, that words can hardly express.
Whatever the symptoms, remember there is one medicine that will go beyond mere symptoms, and
act on the cause cf their troubles, the weakened womanly organs.
Mrs. M. C. Austin, of Memphis, Tenn., writes: "For five (5) years I suffered with every symptom
of female disease, but after using the well-known Cardui Home Treatment, 1 was entirely well.
