mills offer for cotton: To give
you the benefit of the rise in the
future. Don't you know if you
keep them supplied there will be
no rise in cotton. Last week we
broke the record. Cotton always
sold at prices the money power
fixed, until last week. and they
have given the farmers credit for
doing what was never done be-
fore. So you see we can do some
thing if we will come together
and act together. Let's reduce
our cotton acreage aud increase
cur food crops so as to have a
living without cotton. l expect
to buy all | can't grow in this
section with other provisions l
have to spare above years sup
port and will have the same an
other year if I live, for our Maker
has promised US seed time and
harvest. My arrangements is to
plant not over six acres 10 the

To The Farmers.

LEAK LNIEKPR1SE. - L d -
give me a letter space to chat
with my brother farmers, will
we let last years hard work go
for naught or will we make an
effort to defend our country, our
property and our families, we
put in a whole years time, twelve
months, 365 days, last year, farm
tools, guano, mules and feed and
labor and our maker blessed us
with a record-breaker, the big
gest crop we ever made.
Remember we put in years
time, and now will we give up
from SIS to $40 per bale of cotton
rather tban give a few days time
to organize and not over Is cents
per bale to save this SIS to $40
per bale on our present and may
be more on our future crops, we
can't accomplish anything with
out organization. Some say we,
the farmers wont stick, please
let that word be in the past for l
never saw one of the best armies
that history knows, stand any
better (to-wit Lee's) and I was
there and remember very dis
tinctly.
Another says we can't, | wish
that word was blotted ont for
ever, we can't, why the farmers
made the biggest crop on record
last year and few years ago we
whipped the bagging trust and
did it so completely that they
haven't attempted it any more,
this we all have witnessed, now l
can prove it by our old gray
headed people that we have done
more than anybody we have any
account of in the last forty years.
When we returned home from
the civil war 40 years ago, we
had nothing, absolutely nothl@g,
our lands didn't even command 10
cents per acre in a great many
instances. Somebody has done
something since then, see what
crops have been made and what
a prosperous and delightful
country we have. Was it those
who are pressing us aod taking
our farm products for less than
it cost to raise them, no, it is we
who produce who have laid the
foundation for the property and
prosperity of this great south
land of ours we have done 1t, OPP
pressed as we have been, but we
are in better shape now.
Intellectually and financially
and we have the resources and
don't say we can't do anything
that is reasonable and ought to
do. now if the enemy continues
to press us as they have and
force US, let's muster all our
forces aud whip the fight or
know we can't, suppose we put
