GET OUT OF THE CALF PATH
Sam Curtis Writes Of Farmers
Unions And Says They
Should Be Alert.
To The Newark Journal:
When Dr. Livingstone and his
! associates were exploring the
1 wilds of Africa their supply of
' meat ran short, and there being
: no beef trust on the spot to supply
their needs, one of their number
was sent to a native chief to ne
gotiate for a few oxen. Living
stone, like Cecil Rhodes and other
! explorers, knew the value of
! things in dealing with the savages,
so he took some cheap guns, tobac
co and bright colored fabrics to
! trade to the savages for meat. He
'displayed an assortment of his
: goods and readily bargained for
what oxen he wanted, the price
being one gun and one piece of to
i banco for each animal. The next
morning the chief came to Living
stone's camp with a number of
oxen, and while, the chief was oe
j copied in making his presence felt
with formal salutation, one of Liv
ingstone's men quietly counted
the oxen and laid an equal number
of guns and tobacco before the
chief. The chief ordered his at
tendants to arrange the cattle be
fore him. Then he laid a gun
and a piece of tobacco before each
ox, and was astonished to find the
white man could tell just how
many guns were necessary with
out going through the same pro
cess. His wonder was so great
that he insisted on an explanation
from the white man as to how he
could perform such a feat, and of
course the explorers had no time
to give him an elementary course
in arithmetic, so they departed
leaving the amazed savage in ig
norance.
Such ignorance is pitiable in our
eyes, but every day we hear some
one wanting to know what the
farmers going to do by organizing.
They are going to do something
that can’t be told in a minute, nor
grasped by the average man in an
hour. The Farmers Union is an
organization for the farming class;
to better their condition and the
condition of all who are in sympa
thy with them. We must emanci
pate ourselves from wage slavery,
hence we welcome assistance from
all other classes who are in sym
pathy with our object, for we rely
first, last and all the time upon
the working class for the world’s
support. Stop the farmer and all
will stop; kill the farmer and you 1
kill the whole business, so let’s all
help the farmers and their union.!
I he farmers can most effectively
act as class in their struggle !
against the powers of capitalism
by constituting themselves into a
band of brothers. But there are
so many that are traveling the
calf path:
One day through the woods
A calf went home as good calves
should
But made a trail all askew,
A crooked trail, as all calves do.
Since then years have iled
And I believe the calf is dead.
But still lie left behind his trail
And there is a moral tale,
l he trail was taken up next day
By a dog that passed that way,
And the bell weatlur sheep
Followed this trail o'er the steep.
And drew the flock behind him too
As good bell wethers always do.
And from that day, o'er hill and glade
Through the woods a path was made.
And many men wound in and out
And turned and dodged about.
And uttered words of utter wrath
Because it was a crooked path,
this forest path became a lane
That bent and turned and turned
This crooked lane became a road
Where many a poor horse with his
load
Toiled on beneath the burning' sun
And traveled some three miles in one.
And thus a a century and a half
They trod the footsteps of the calf.
1 he years passed in swiftness Meet
Tliis road became a villiage street.
And before men were aware
A city's crowded thoroughfare.
And soon the central street was this
Of a renowned metropolis,
And men two centuries and a half
Trod in the footsteps of that calf.
Each day a hundred men
Followed the calf again
And o’er the journey went
The traffic of a continent,
And hundreds of men were led
By a calf three centuries dead.
They followed still his crooked way,
And lost one hunded years a day.
A moral lesson this might teach.
Were I ordained and called to preach.
Some men are prone fo go it blind
Along the calf paths of the mind,
And work away from sun to sun
And do what other men have done.
They follow in t he beaten track,
Out and in. forth and hack
And still their devious course pursue
To keep the path that others do
And how tlie wise men would laugh
Who first saw that crooked path.
Many things this tale might teach
But i am not ordained to preach.
Who complains of his lot in life
For his babies home and wife
While the boodles have control
Poor unsuspecting soul,
And for a common rule
Like a corporation mule
Will cast off the binding chain
And proudly hold the rein.

A NEW nAQAZINE.
Frank P Holland has made a
sigual success of Farm and Ranch
and we note with pleasure that on
August 1 he will begin the publi
cation of a new monthly periodi
cal, Holland’s Magazine. This
publication is to be a home maga
zine of high literary character de
signed for a general circulation
throughout the South and South
west. At present no such a maga
zine exists. The Southern and.
Soutnwestern states should readily
support a tirst-class magazine of j
the right quality and if the meth-;
ods pursued by Col. Holland in
making Farm and Ranch are indi
cative of those to be pursued in
| the new magazine it certainly!
I ought to be a winner. His policy
I of making good rather than mak
i ing promises is fully exemplified
in the advance sheets of Holland’s
Magazine.
The subscription price of the
| new magazine is SI per year; with
this paper we can furnish both for
11.75.

TEXAS A GREAT COUNTRY1
Former Newark Citizen Writer
of Conditions in the (ireat
South-West.
To The Newark Journal.
As friends from your town of
ten write me to tell them some
thing about this part of Texas L
deem it best to tell them through
the columns of your most appre
ciated paper. I spent 2f> years in
and around Newark and ten years
in Texas. So it seems I should
have a fair knowledge of both. JL
traveled the first, four years I was
in Texas over the counties of Bur
net, Williamson. Travis, Lampas
sas. Llano and Bell. As many
know Lainpassas, Llano and a part
of Burnet are hilly and mountain
ous; mostly a stock raising coun
try ; while the others named are
the finest farming lands 1 have ev
er seen, of rolling black land prai
ries. As to production our lands
produce almost anything. Of
course we have drouths that cut
us short, but 1 can't say they are
any worse than in Independence
county, on an average. I was dis
couraged when I first came here ins
1-S95, as 1 saw but little fruit.
Old settlers told me fruit would
not grow here, but I decided to
try it, and to the astonishment of
many , 1 have the finest orchard of
peaches, plums, apricots, pears,
frgs and apples in Burnet county.
1 have begun the berry business,
and have the finest strawberries
and dewberries that I ever saw
grow. 1 then decided to try rib
bon cane for sugar, and I now
have the finest 1 ever saw.
.Now we have what some people
call a curse to Texas, but I call it
a blessing, especially to the chil
dren. That is the monster boll
weevil, though he is shy this year.
Corn is as tine as could be askeil
for; so are oats and wheat, but we
have had plenty of rain this year.
The best of all is health. We
know nothing of chills and fever,
malaria or pneumonia. Our coun
try is 1972 feet above sea level,
ond we have a fine breeze all the
time, and we have no sand storms
as they do farther west; no cy
clones and no cold weather. We
have sudden northerners in winter
that call for a coat, but I have not
seen an overcoat in 9 or 10 years
only as a traveler would bring one
in. We have good society and
good schools. Land is high rang
ing from $5 to $50 per acre. I
paid $20 per acre for my place
and am now offered $50, but 1 am
holding it for $05 per acre.
W'hat we most need is more cap
italists, and they are coming fast.
Factories of all kinds are being
built all over Texas. Then the
best advantage is one man can eas
ily cultivate 50 acres while in Ark
ansas 15 acres was a fair crop.
With best wishes to all my old
friends 1 am respectfully yours,
J. 11. PoWELL.

(From Bryan’s Commoner:)
The wise man will not ask for a
woman's reason.
The man who guesses at his

(lifts given with expectations of
