I Farmers Educational
—AND
Co-Operative Union
Of America
There is no sort of sense in plant
in a crop which is already a drug on
the market, as your main crop. Plant ;
pigs and poultry; they are the mort- j
gage lifters of this fair land of ours.
Dairymen claim that $500 worth of
grain removes $300 worth of elements
from the soil, but that $500 worth of
butter removes practically nothing.
This is a matter that all good farm
ers should look to.
You can not go on forever cropping
a soil without wearing it out, unless
5X)u at the same time replenish its
fertility by the addition of some sort
of soil help. Don't let the rains car
ry your farm off to the sea.
Don’t scab on the brethren by urg
ing them to reduce their cotton crops
while you increase your own. That
sort of a man isn't fit to belong to a
union of cutthroats. He is a sorry
sort of a dirty, fleay doyn, with apolo
gies to the canine.
The Union makes no fight on any
class. It simply stands for its own
rights, the rigiht to co-operate in buy
ing and selling, educate and render
brighter the social life of the farmer
and his family. The merchant who
is opposing this is making a serious
mistake.
Texans are learning the value of al
falfa. A few years ago it was a curl
csity in that State, but now it is found
h staple market product in all mar
kets. It has developed into one of the
most profitable crops in the State,
even being more reliable than King
Cotton, and the demand for it is on
the increase.
There is hardly a first-rate farm in
all the South that would not he bet
ter off if it had a few stands of bees.
These tireless little workers are of
vast benefit as polenlzers among many
plant's, and there is something about
the home with bees near it that the
h:>nT> without these little friends never
seems to possess.
'rhe Journal steadfastly refuses to
recognize any man as a farmer un
less he tills the ground himself and
'ooks to the fruits of the ground for
his reward. *If he is too old to work
ne is a superannuated farmer—a man
who has been a farmer, hut is not one
now. if he is looking for his reward
i.:i the increase in the price of his land
aside from the improvements, he is
to that extent a land speculator.—
Abilene, Texas. Farmers’ Journal.
Therfe are three things in the horse’s
make up—the breed, the raising and
the training—that it pays to look aft
er. Any one of these, neglected,
spoils the horse; any two of them
omitted, and you have a beast not
worth the room he takes up in tht
world, but all of them neglected pro
duces an al>ortioii that is of no use
to itself nor to anybody. Sometimes
creatures who call themselves farmers
neglect all three of these things-, many
neglect two of them, and some, one
of them, and yet get along pretty
well; but it is the "pattern farmer”
who looks well to all of them, and he
wins success for his trouble.

Get Well
If you are sick, you wish to get well, don’t you?]
Of course you do. You wish to be rid of the pain and
misery, and be happy again.
If your illness is caused by female trouble, you
can quickly get the right remedy to get well. It’s
Cardui. This great medicine, for women, has re
lieved or cured thousands of ladies, suffering like |
you from some female trouble.
CARDUI
For Women's Ills
Hrs. Fannie Ellis, of Foster, Ark., suffered agony for seven
years. Read her letter about Cardui. She writes: “I was sick for
seven years with female trouble. Every month I would very nearly ]
die with my head and back. I took 12 bottles of Cardui and waa
| cured. Cardui is a God-send to suffering women.” Try it.

EQUITY IN BUSINESS.
Practice of Live-and-Let-Live Princi
ples Most Desirable.
Too frequently it is noticed that in
the struggle to attain wealth the
rights of the individual are ignored.
Fair dealing is a desirable thing as
well as most simple and it requires
only common honesty to practice it.
Not alone is there honesty involved
in the matter of selling but also in !
the matter of buying. It is quite as
dishonorable for the purchaser to ex
act that the seller receive no profit on J
an article sold as it is for the seller
to demand an exorbitant price for his
goods.
There is much sound philosophy in
the live-and-let-live gospel. This is
nothing more than an observance of |
the Golden Rule that has found ex
pression in all ages of enlightenment .
from the time of Gautama down to
the present. In every day dealings it j
is apparent that there is too much of
exaggerated selfishness in evidence,
too great a struggle for the vantage.
There should be a spirit of Christian
cooperation that would be just to all |
alike. Whole communities suffer
sometimes from the lack of this sense
of equity on the part of merchants
and their customers.
How often is the complaint heard in
rural districts that the storekeepers
of a town charge too high prices for
what they have to sell? How often is
it noticed that where this feeling done j
inates the people that the home !
town suffers as a consequence? It is
short sightedness on pans of mer
chants to require of their customers
more than what may be considered a j
legitimate and just profit. In fact, it !
is poor business policy to follow out
a plan of this kind. There are many
towns whose growth has been pre- j
vented through a grasping tendency
of the merchants to make all they pos
sibly can in a few short years, and to
give the people as small an amount of j
goods as they will take for their !
money. The natural result of a pol
icy of this kind is that the people l
seek other towns in which to do their j
trading and quite often buy from the j
distant mail-order house.
Habits once formed are hard to
break. It is quite as difficult for the
merchant to recover from the habit
of making exorbitant profits as it is
for the patron of the mail-order house
to turn his trade to the home stores.
Should both the merchants and their
customers calmly consider principles
that enter into commerce, and both
determine to practice equity in their |
dealings, the merchant to sell honest 1
goods at honest profits and the cus- ,
tomer to give patronage to merchants
who would practice this principle, it
would be wholesome not alone for
the home towns, but for all the com
mumties.
How to Tie Wool.
Do not tie your wool with sisal or i
binder twine. Woolen manufacturers
are up in arms against this practice,
and are more and more refusing to ac
cept from wool dealers wool that is
tied with sisal <tr binder twine, and
the time has come when the buyer of
wool must discriminate against this
kind of twine, for the reason that in
untying the fleeces it is impossible to
remove sisal or binder twine without
leaving soma of the fibre in the wool, |
and this causes a defect in the good:
when made, to the annoyance and ex '
pense of the woolen manufacturer,
who has has to put such pieces of
cloth among his defective goods. j ,
In Ohio the tying up of taps in a j
fleece of wool is a criminal offense, i
and if discovered is punishable by im- j
prisonment or fine, or both, tit the dis
cretion of the judge trying the offense, i
It is in the power of the wool grow
ers to improve the value of their wool |
by proper tying and tagging, using the ■
hard twisted twine instead of the loose j
bound, wiry sisal. It is barely possi
ble that the wool dealers and manu
facturers will refuse to accept wool
tied with sisal except at a discount,
from a merchantable p ice.—Southern
Cultivator.
BY THEIR FRUITS.
Co-Operator:
We judge a tree by its fruits. Tills
is scriptural and therefore it is the j
very essence or' truth and Rood sense.
If a man points out to you a peach or I
an apple tree in your orchard and
tells you the tree is worthless; that
it will not bear good fruit nor much
of a yield, but if year by year that
tree goes on budding and blooming in i
season and at the right time bringing 1
forth rich, luscious peaches or mellow
delicious apples, as the case may be,
you will wisely judge the tree by its
fruits and not by what this man has
told you, or listen to similar tales
from other people. In other w’ords,
be just to the tree and judge it by
what it shows for Itself, not by whaf
people say.
If you have been keeping your poul
try in a tight house, now open it up
even if you have to tear the sides off
of it. Close quarters will kill •very
fowl on the place.
