EDITORS INTELLIaENcER am afraid
that there are thousands of tons Of crab
grass hay (which Is the best OF bay) that
will be killed by frost in this State this
fall, and to substitute it the farmers will
pay twenty dollars ton for hay that is no
better and often not as good, and still the
flaws" Cypress the poor farmer. I am
having every blade of grass saved on my
farm that possibly can, so that if the
laws of my country oppress me I don't
want to let my stock suffer for something
to eat on account of oppressive laws. lido
hope the farmers will not have as much
old, dry crab-grass to burn off next spring
as they bad last spring. 1t will not cost
you five dollars ton-maybe not more
than two or three dollars-to save good
crab-grass hay, or grass on the bottom
lands, which is very good, but don't
believe as good as the crab-grass. SO let
us go to work and save it, for fodder is
going to be scarce and high.

financer in our County, 40 that we could
have been represented in his Cabinet.
Perhaps the editor of the ADVOCATE could
get job on an advisory board of finan-
ciers to devise plan of our currency,
and on coinage. thought when I read
Mr.. Tribble's able letter in the INTELL1.
aENcER that I had learned something
about finances that I never knew before,
but ales here comes the editor of the
Peoples ADVOCATE and just literally tore
it all to pieces. So you see have got it
all to learn over again, but don't want
the farmers to forget the crab grass hay on
that account
1t seems that Anderson has furnished
an expert chemist on rice beer in Mr..
Brady.
I hope the Legislature will repeal the
Dispensary law at its next session and pass
prohibition law or nothing. think the
old system better than the one We now
have.
lam surprised at some devout (?) men,
bers Of the Church wanting to deal in
whiskey just because it is lawful ~ I
don't believe everything is right because
1t is lawful, nor do believe it any less
sin to sell liquor in State bar.room
than it is in one belonging to an individ-
usl. l hope everybody will quit using
liquor, so that the business of selling will
have to stop, but I don't expect to see it
in my life time. do know, however,
that there are few who quit the use of it

the best way for prohibitionists to work is
not TO try to have prohibition law pass.
ed, but to educate the people to the knowl-
edge that whiskey drinking is injurious
to health as we'll as morals and if you
only gain-each one of you-oue convert
in all your lives you have done wonder
full thing for humanity, to say nothing of
Christianity. So let US all do that aud
save oil the hay and humanity We can.
know of one man who l intend to do
my best to turn, and if every other tee
totaler will single him or her out man
and 60 to work and convince him that it
is running him, etc., etc, to drink, and
turn that individual, you will haYe &C
complished glorious work-one that
will do you good all your life.
Don't let the farmers forget the saving
Of hay in the meantime.
