THE advice of all the Democratic
to Hancock is "s-h-h." Don't
say a word, don't write a word. Keep
mum, and we may slip you in. We can
not say anything about your record. You
have no civil record. The deaf mute
party proposes to conduct the campaign
in dumb show Hartford Courant.

IN speech at Denver, last week, Sec
retary Thompson called attention to the
fact that Hancock in 1868 wrote letter
fully endorsing the Democratic platform
of that year, which declared the entire

THE New York Commercial Bulletin
assumes that the wheat crop of the pres
ent year will reach 494,OOO,0OO bushels,
and estimating that the foreign demand
will be 11G, 100000 bushels, there will re-
main 3S2 100000 bushels. This will IA
exceed the amount required for home
consumption, leaving an immense surr
plus for which the farmers will be
lucky if the obtain one dollar per busheI.

The press, the leading commercial men
and the politicians, succeed well in making
the masses of our people admire the
wrong side of the picture; they hold it up
SO often and in such way as to dazzle
our thinking powers We live in hope of
seeing our people do their own thinking,
take charge of their own business, and
save every cent profit, both in marketing
their produce and in the purchase of their
supplies which can only be done by CO.
operation. Shall we have it3 am sure

Every Association should file its char

to the Order. Tt is expected that the time
is near at hand when we will be dealing
direct with the manufacturers, exchanging
our produce with them, and that we will
also be able to do our own banking. This
NAV sound like within of the brain, but
we have been furnishing the world with
the means to do these things, keeping up

Editor Patron: The hand of Provi-
dence has marked the course of our cause.
Step by step, it has moved onward, eyer
going deeper into the hearts and conscien-
ces of farmers. 1t has had its enemies,
as has every great reform which has agi-
tated the world; but our standard floats
out prouder to-day than ever before.
There is hydra influence against us
one inscriptions and gigantic. But ours
is the majority, for God is with us. At
times we have been teaten---its waves
have rolled back and again mingle W 18th
their kindred waters; but they have re-
turned to the shoals with other waves and
deeper flow, sweeping on with the
strength and grandeur of its power. Mon
ely Power has opposed our Order, fashion
has sneered at it, interest among the mid
dlemen has fought it, demagogues have
stabbed it, but like the oak matured
in the storms it has taken root among
the farmers, until its towering trunk sways
defiance to the fiercest wrath of our oppo-
nents. And it will live, and flourish and
its triumph will be glorious.

adoption of THE PATRON as the official
organ of the Texas State Grange, and
hereby instruct our delegate to use his

work of the annual session was at once
commenced, and it required no expert to
discover that the officers and delegates
were full of enthusiasm, and ready to I'M
dertake the important work for which
they had assembled and most faithfully
did they labor with an earnest determine
ton to accomplish good results. The
body. was composed of as fine looking,
intelligent earnest men and women as can
be collected together, in that or any other
State. All seemed deeply impressed with
the importance of the work committed to
their charge, they realize the great ,neces-
sity of Organization, and fully appreciate
its Importance and value And most
faithfully did they work to accomplish the
greatest good to the greatest number.

"A few-a very few-of our Georgia

no one is more surprised at the interest
taken by the Constitution in the matter

APPLETON'S READERS.

The great and even painful need which
has been experienced by every teacher
for series of Readers adapted to the
purpose of teaching, has been fully met
in this series of Appleton's DR.. VIM. /.
Harris, of St. Louis, one of our leading
minds, and two other noted scholars, have
prepared them,-and every requirement
is met. They are unquestionably the
finest text books that have ever been in
use in our schools. The first Of the series
is charmingly adapted to the little folks.
The facination of rhyme and picture and
story, are such that the art of reading is
acquired unconsciously. And the sue
ceeding numbers are exceedingly well
suited to the different stages of mental
progress One excellent feature is the
combination of written exercise with the
reading and spelling. The fifth of the
series contains selections from and only
from the choicest literature. The notes
appended to each lesson, which the judi
cious teacher will pay great regard to,
form the habit of critical examination of
the text, and is an Invaluable assistant to
the formation of the pure and discrinina-
ting taste No school should be without
them. -aw
We mention the subject at this time, as
the Oranges of the Southwest are giving
unusual attention to the building up of
schools in their midst,-and it is of vast
Importance that the best school books be
selected at the very outset. We intend
to look into this subject, and ascertain the
best books suited to our common schools,
that we may knowingly advise our
Oranges what to select from. We shall
recur to this subject frequently.

FARMERS, DON'T SELL YOUR COT
TON SEED

We continue to urge the farmers of the Cotton
States not to sell their seed to the oil companies
at any price 1t is the worst policy they can pur-
sue Every farmer should not only refuse to SELL
but he should buy the seed owned by his employees
and use every bushel for feed and fertilizing Pur
poses. AT $fo-a ton, it is the cheapest and best
fertilizer in the world
The oil companies combine to put down ano
keep down the price to % and 81 per ton, when
is not one-fourth of its real value Farmers shouia
combine to prevent its sale to the oil companies
under any circumstances.
Farmers, 'tseH your cotton seed.
