To Use Farmers.

Being farmer and knowing the
disadvantage under which we are
laboring, to grow and market our
crops, especially the sweet potato, l
think it absolutely necessary we
should get together and have some
understanding with each other.
know it has been said, and with very
good reason for so saying, that farm
ers will not colleague, but l think
the time has come when all must see
that if we do not combine to protect
ourselves, other trades, trusts and
combines will not protect us. There
fore, l would suggest that we hold d
mee,ing at Accomack G. H., on
March courtday, next, to form some
resolutions and to appoint commit
tee in every district, or what would
be better, in every old time road
precinct, whose duty it shall be to
see every farmer (white and colored),
in said precinct and ascertain how
many will pledge themselves to stand
by those resolutions and how many
that will not. And if two.thirds or
three fourths' ajority will stand by
us, l think, we can control tiff not,
then let it go as it is to the bitter
end. I have talked with numbers OF
men, and l think, that nine tenths
agree with my way of thinking, but
the trouble is, how to get all together
and agree. My plan is,
l, To curtail, or cut off our crop
one third, or one fourth at least.
2, To buy no fertilizers for sweet
potatoes.
3, To stop shipping entirely and
never stick a hoe in our patch until
we have first made sale.
4, After making sale, not try to
beat the purchaser, but give him
what we agree to give, both in quail
ity and size of package.
5, Never to sell for less than we
can afford to sell for at profit; bet
ter by odds to stop the whole traffic
than to follow the precedent of the
last season. L. J. NELSON.
