citizen of Dallas, Texas, writes under
date of April 18th, 1889: About
three years ago l was living in ma

my body. The poison in my blood

reduced in health, and apparently in

doubts that | would derive any benefit
from the trip. | went to Hot Springs,

cure me, for in one month after my
return the malady reappeared. l i'm

The Farmers club of Mineral Point
is an organization having for its object
the advancement of the interests of
agriculture, and the discussion of
questions pertaining to the same.
A regular meeting of the club is held
at the City Hall on the first Saturday
in each month, when subjects tending
to determine the latest, best and most
effective methods to apply to farming
in southwestern Wisconsin are dis
cussed in an intelligent, interesting
and Thoroughly practical manner. As
is said in a circular advertising the
farmers Institutes, zone thought is
kept constantly in view, and that is to
aid the farmer in making every acre
and every COW double its value and
producing capacity" One bad feature
about these meetings, however, is that
they are almost invariably poorly
attended. Many would doubtless at
tribute this lack of interest in these
important matters to characteristic
indifference upon the part of farmers.
for it; but not altogether. Is it not
quite probable that many wideawake
farmers have come to re.IiZe in this
latter part of the year of grace 1889
that 1t is not only important their
iiOcks and herds and the value of their
lands should increase; but that it is
even more important who receives the
benefit of such increase. 1t may be
that from recent experience they are
inclined to believe that those who
are instrumental i'll bringing about an
increase Of the products of agriculture
do not receive their just share of the
accruing benefits. Some of them may
even feel confident that the Ions
share Of the abundant harvests of the
year has been appropriated to the use
and behoof of the members of trusts
which are referred to in President
Harrison's message as dangerous
conspracies against the public good"
In view, therefore, Of the conditions
which confront the American farmer
at this time, The Democrat would
suggest to the members of the Farm
ers' club of Mineral Point, that if they
would have their meetings well at
tended they should throw off little
of their conservatism, and boldly take
up and discuss the great political
issue of the day-the tariff question
Let them devote portion of the time
usually taken up with the destruction
of such noXious weeds as Canadian
thistles, twitch grass, toad flax and
snap dragon to digging around the
deadly tree which bears the trusts and
poisons the commercial atmosphere
with dishonest business methods OF
course they would soon discover that
its tap-root is Protection; but they
would scarcely hesitate to finish their
work upon that account Farmers.
