The Proposed Farmers State Conven-
tion.

John A. Turley in Southern Industries.
Now that the farmers of the state
have taken it into their hearts to effect
State organization of their numbers,
and in their interests, | do hope that
no part of the line will be permitted to
waver. To many, such a movement
is new, and the care, precistance, and
labor necessary to success may, by
them, be underrated. To such | de-
sire to say that no movement does the
trite saying, eternal vigilance" etc.,
more aptly apply.
Farmers always have something to
do, and are slow to lay aside pressing
duty for one that may be deferred.
They are very apt to reason that ifI
do not attend the Convention plenty of
others will, and besides ! do not know
of anything in particular for me to do
if were present; and then this, that,
or something else ought to be done now,
so will not 60 this time, but will get
ready beforehand and surely 60 to the
next meeting. In this way hundreds
of farmers who ought by all means at
tend the State Convention in Septem-
ber will persuade themselves to stay
away. 1t is said that to be forewarned
is to be forearmed, and | throw out
these points trusting that no farmer in
the State will permit any trivial excuse
to deprive the Convention of his pres
ence and hearty cooperation.
The movement is new one to most
Of us, and how important the future
alone will reveal. Already we know
enough of its purposes and design to
justify our commentator. In great
measure it will be what we make it.
That there are abundant reasons for
closer relation between the farmers of
the State, none will deny; that organi-
zation is the surest source of strength
and efficiency, the past most incontro-
vertibly proves, and that sin multi
tude Of counsel there is WISDOM" God
himself declares. Without pressing
the question further. let me ask every
farmer in the State to keep the Sep
tember Convention in mind, and work,
talk, and write for it from now until
then, and be sure to be present on the
occasion.

sible of the fact that Rogers was drown

rescure him, but ere they reached him
he sank to rise no more.
The boys being frightened made no
further attempt to secure the body, but
speedily spread the alarm. A goodly
number of people soon assembled, and
began trying to find the body, but
the water being so deep they found
this no easy matter. At length they
succeeded, but no attempt was made to
recussitate the body, since about an hour
and half had elapsed since the drown
ing occurred. Mr.. Rogers was about
twenty years of age, and leaves a

BUREAU OF AGRICULTURE, STATISTICS,
MINES AND IMMIGRATION,
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug. II, '89.
SIR :-Impelled by sense of the OBJ
legations resting upon the South to
widen her capacity for the development
of her almost illimitable resources of
wealth, both actual and potential, | am
constrained to address you thus officially
the object of which is to suggest an as

at the city of Louisville during the
period of her great exposition. z
1t appears to me all important that
we should take counsel together anent
the direction of the tide of immigra-
tion that is so greatly swelling the
population of the United States; and 1
am well assured that means can be de-
vised to turn the current into our
Southern ports, and by the enlistment
of our great railway trunks, we may
seize and distribute the best elements
of immigration to our infinite advan-
tage.
And apart from this vital interest
which so signally demands our atten-
ton it is of the utmost Importance for
us to take active steps toward!a perma-
nent organization which can the better
control and support the wonderful In
terests it is our honor to represent.
respectfully suggest Wednesday,

preparation for the occasion.

Attention, Agriculturists

On the 9th of June there was an Or
ganized at Nashville the Middle Ten
nessee Farmers Association. Profit
ing by the experience of the farmers of
West and East Tennessee, whose an
nual meetings, have been of exceeding
value to that division of the state, it
was determined to promote thorough
organization in every county of Middle
Tennessee, and measures were prompts
ly set on foot for that purpose. In
many of the counties meetings have al
ready been held for the organization of
county associations, and it is probable
that during the present month every
county in the central division Of the
state will do likewise.
In West Tennessee the farmers are
deeply interested in similar move.
ment. Before this paper will reach
many to whom it is addressed, that
portion of the state will have farmers
association, with auxiliary associations
in different counties.
The object for which these division
associations are formed have been pub.
lished in many of the newspapers of
the state, and are well understood.
They may be stated briefly and fully
to promote the interests of the owners
and tillers of the soil, in every honora-
BILE way and by all honorable means,
using to that end the power of associa-
ted effort.
1t is necessary for the most effective
working of such associations in this
state that there be distinct organizations
for each grand division. The typo.
graphy of the State, the wide diversity
of soils and products, the distinctly
separated commercial relations of East
Middle and West Tennessee, sufficient
ly indicate this necessity.
For many purposes, and those really
of the highest Importance to agricultu.
ralists, there must be United action
throughout the State. Farmers must
come together from all parts of the
commonwealth, to consult and agree
upon ends, ways and means.
Upon the overtures of the East Ten
nessee Farmers Association it was
agreed to call a convention of farmer;
to meet at II o'clock Tuesday morning
September IL, 1883, in the hall of the
house of representatives at Nashville.
To this convention is invited every
citizen of Tennessee who is a farmer, OF
who is more interested III farming
than in any other vocation or profession
1t has been suggested, and this con-
ventiOn may decide upon an orgaDiza
tion of a state farmers association, tC
be composed of representatives from
the several division associations, and
that it shall meet annually or bienni
ally, at Nashville, or alternately in the
capitol city and at some point in Eas
or West Tennessee. 1t is therefore
suggested that those who attend the
convention shall ascertain as far as posi-
BILE the wishes of the farmers of the
several districts, and come prepared tt
act accordingly.
Arrangement have been made will
the railways centering at Nashville fOl
reduced rates of fare.
