membership Of about fourteen hundred.
Before we close we wish 10 thank the X.

does our hearts good to read letters from
different parts Of the state, let every

county meeting Of the +. and l.. alliance
convened at the Danyille school-house,
Saturday, April 9th. The house was
crowded 10 It's utmost capacity with dele
gates and visiting members. Many ladies
lent charm TO the meeting by their
presence. Considerable interest in the
current topics Of the day, especially such
as have a bearing on the far mers and
labOrers interest, was manifested. With
the present outlook Of strength and the
dissatisfied condition Of the "iarmer igno-
ramuses," they will knock the high per-

which is the inscription, "sink or swim,

Below submit a number Of resolutions
that were unanimously adopted at this
meeting.
ResOIDed, BY the Farmers Alliance
and Industrial Union, Of Neosho county,
Kansas, that we indorse the declarations
Of principles, and the platform adopted
by the National Alliance and Industrial
Union at st. Louis, Dec. 3rd, 1880.
Res0lUed, That we are heartily in favor
Of the passage Of soldiers, serUice pen
sion bill, and that we believe common
Justice and integrity require that the
soldiers should have made up TO him the
difference between the deprecated cur
rency In which he was paid and the coin,
or coin equivalent currency in which
bond holders claims have been adjusted.
ReSoloed, That we believe in uniform
system Of text books, adopted and printed
and sold by the state at the lowest nomi-
nal cost
ResoI0ed, That Senator Stanford's reso-
luton offered, in regard to loaning money
on our farms, meets with our hearty ap-
proval.
ReS0I0ed, That we think instead Of
scaling our mortgages down in proportion
TO the depreciation Of our land, it would
be better to increase the circulating me-
dunn, 80 that we could pay our debts.
Resolved, That we respectfully call the
attention Of all political parties IN the
demands embraced in these resolutions,
in order that they may avail themselves
of this opportunity; also,
Resolved, We, your committee on reso-
lutions, having read an editorial in the
Republican Record Of NeoshO county,
entitled, "Have we hard times, say that
we have, and that the condition of farm
ers as a whole, is proof Of the same, and
that the market prices Of all our produc.
tions prove it.
ResoIved, That the County Alliance
recommend to our board of county com
missloners, that they let the public print
ing to the lowest responsible bidder, but
that under no circumstances should the
Republican Record be allowed any part
Of the same, also that we advise alliance
members to drop that paper and all others
that print such matter.

Farmers who understand their own
interests are now doing all they can to
prevent the further destruction of insect
eating birds.
Cne of the greatest obstacles to the
successful production of potatoes is the
disease known as the potato rot. The
potato beetle is now well under control
and is 10 longer feared.
Potatoes too small for sale or for seed
should, nevertheless, be saved. Ii boiled
and mixed with corn meal they make

We read and hear n great deal about

farmers no doubt, but farmers rs n class
are not eight-hour men nor ten-hour men.
Their business compcls them TO do much
early and late work, and not n few of these

ing around the market, generally not more
than once n week at that, arule do more
hard work before their critics get up in the

In old slavery times we used to hear II great
deal about the "mud-sills' up north. One
would quite naturally suppose from the con-
slant tnusts at the manner in which farm
ers live that we were cutivating that noble
nigger-drivor sentiment here. Does not
the farmer as honornbly earn his living as
any other man And is he not fairly en-
titled to as good one If not, by what

Look After the Manure.

No animal except the sheep drops It's
tlanure so that it does not need br,ak-
ing to pieces for more even distribution
over the soil. Even the sheep viii hud-
die together at night, and drop their
manure too much in one place; but this
is usually on the highest part Of the
field that generally most needs to be
fortified. An exchange suggests to
farmers that wherever cattle and horses
have pastured during summer, the clods
of manure they have scattered over the
surface should be broken up in the fall.
This ubcoVers the grass that is smothered
Seneath them, and at the same time re-
leases the manure for use on q wider
area, where IL will be carried down TO
grass roots By rains and melting SHOWS,
and wifi result in a larger aud more
vigorous growth next season.
