EDITOR FARMER:-A communication
from Atlanta, Ga, in last Wednes.
days Wilmington Messenger says
Wholesale merchants of Atlanta
and other Southern cities are greatly
concerned about the probable effect OF
the cotton bagging trust upon the
business of the South" 1t is argued
that if the action of the Farmers
Alliance and similar organizations is
maintained, bankruptcy to the country
merchant will follow, and thus would
effect very seriously the wholesale
merchant. And the same article states
further that "the only thing they can
do is to persuade farmers to change
their position, and thistheyare trying
to do by circulars, newspapers and in
%terviews." Now the question of the
farmer being bankrupted does not
enter into the calculation at all, and
though theyahave. to pay four Or live
cents extra per yard, still mit's a
private affair with which they have
nothing toado, and the newspapers
Of the land are to be invited to use
their influence, not in persuading a
dozen millionaires to back down from
a gross and fragrant wrong, but to
persuade a million of farmers to re-
cede from a position which is right:
The newspapers of the South circulate
among a people four-ffths of whom
endorse and sympathize with the ac-
ton and resolutions of the farmers.
The non.committal attitude ofmany of.
them has already been noticed, and
persuasive influence against the effort
of a people who are simply trying to
combat and prevent the further en-
croachment of millionaire combine
upon the rights of the farmers will be
watched with a great deal of concern.

the weather is favorable-sunny or
breezy-they may lie say two hours
after cutting, and then be carefully re-
versed en- masse, just as you would
turn a pancake, and allow to remain
two hours more before putting on
wigwams. But if there is any sign of
rainy or stormy weather, haulo or carry
to the wigwams at once, and pile upon
each one all it will bear, to the thick
ness of a foot or more all over, hang
ing the vines on the 1projecting spurs,
and piling on top, but not allowing
any of the vines to rest on the ground.
The exposure for a few hours, and
careful turning over, as directed, hast
ems the curing process somewhat; but,
In covering the wigwams, it will be
well to keep the vines that have been
thus partially cured separate from

that it cleanses the scalp, promotes the

THE condition that confronts
now, according to a Philadelphia
special to the New York Tribune,
that staunch enemy of the Mills
bin, is one of renewed life in the
iron and coal markets. The traffic
in coal promises to be heavier than
ever before known and embarrasses
the railroad officials by its magni-
tude. The theory that the pas
sage of the bill would seriously
cripple business seems to have been
unfounded.
