Union Valley is situated among
the hills in the northeastern part
of Giles aud near the Marshall
county line. Our soil is produc-
tive, adapted especially TO raising
corn, wheat, oats, grass, clover and
cotton, though farmers have nearly
abandoned the latter, thinking they
can turn their lands to something
more profitable. All kinds of veg
etables grow In profusion and copi-
Gus supplies Of pure sparkling wa
ter gush from every hillside and
gladden. the valleys with their sweet
melody. So you see ours is very
pleasant community-not the gar
den spot of the world, however, but
good enough for any one to ''live,
move and have their being" and be
happy If they will only use the
means to secure that end.

for an existence for two years, is
now adding to the membership and
interest in the work which it has I'M

from it's organization have contin-

much credit is due, for whatever
success may have thus far attended
the efforts OF this body to revolu-
tionize the system of farming of
our county, to elevate the standard
of this occupation and to infuse
into its pursuit larger amount
of elements of success, more
brain, as well as physical labor, econ
omy and enterprise. That the in
terest in this work may continue
to increase and the capacity of the
farmers association in our county
be greatly augmented, we appeal to
every farmer of the county who
feels any interest whatever in this
work to come and join US. Come
and let us cease to lament over
short crops, low prices and hard
times, and go to work in the study
of ways and means and how to pre-
vent these evils. Will you come to
our next meeting Saturday, Feb. 90?
