BOZ Retter FArm nanda.

The Carthage Democrat is
starting an agitation for better
farm hands. IL believes in dig
nifying the position so a. TO at
tract good, clean men who can be
taken into the farmers home and
associate with his family. lt
says;
Just now when farmers are
hiring hands for farm work and
paying good wages, big stout
fellows are Offering their service
and do not understand why they
are not accepted when farmers
are doing without the help they
so much need. Young man, al.
low me to be plain, and | viii tell
you. The farmer that hires a
man must in most cases take his
hand into the family and give
him a home for the time of serv-
ice. In most cases these homes
are splendid places for a young
man. Plenty of healthful food,
good cooking, good bed and all
that goes with our best country
homes, and let us say right here
that today nothing offers fairer
remuneration to a young man,
considering the healthful sur
rounding of the country, than
farm work.
Now, for your part, and the
reason you have been turned
do wn. Examine yourself for
this, and see if you are the pro
per fellow for these nice homes.
Has the farmer ever heard about
you being drunk that time:
What can you do with that old
pipe of yours? win you have to
stop and roll a cigarette while
the boss gets to the field ahead
of your Then in the evening, the
girls play on the piano in the par
lor and you are invited in with
that quarter of a plug in on side
of your mouth, and no place to
spit.
Our best farmers are raising
families that they are proud of,
and who are to become the fore
most citizens of that country.
Now, young man, r you good
company for the farmers chill
dreny
"The farmer wants good grain
to feed his stock and also good
language for his children. He is
looking for a yonng man who can
use good language. He prefers
one that has gone TO school, and
above all one who is not vulgar
and does not swear. He has no
use for cigarettes on a farm and
would rather his hand that asso-
ciates with his boys would not
use tobacco in any form.
you say he is looking for an
angel, and l say he is looking for
a young man with good common
sense and that is all. Sorry 70
say in most cases our farmer
fails to find a hand and the big
fellow loafs about our villages.
But il is better for the farmer il
some Of his field lies idle or grows
in weeds than TO SOW in his fami-
7 ly the vulgar, low and vicious
{ habits Of some of our young
!. friends who say they want 10
work on a farm"

STAND BY YOUR GUNS!

Under the above caption Mr.. Paul M. Potts, OF
Natchtoches, President of the Louisiana Division
of the Southern Cotton Association has circulated
the letter which follows. We find pleasure in giving
it space in these columns. Here is the letter:
''We are up against hard fight and must fight
to the finish. We have nothing to do but remember
that the holders of cotton have never sustained
loss by holding, but by becoming scared and turn
ing loose. Again we should remember in this case
that we have thousands of others holding with US,
the most of them pledged to hold, and we have
never had concert of action in holding cotton before
now. Do not become frightened by the efforts OF
the professionals to run the public out of the mar
ket; it is nothing but their old game that has been
played thousands of times before. The fact should
never be lost sight of that the spinners must have
cotton and that they cannot get it unless we who
have it will sell it to them, and that in
position to demand Is cents and get it. Stand by
your guns and we will win the fight.
ssThe resolution introduced in Congress by Con-
gresham Lowering, of Massachusetts, demanding
of Secretary Wilson that he make new crop report
on Jan. TO- is done in the interest of the spinner
and bear spectators and is directly intended to
defeat our move for Is cent cotton. Wire your
Congressman to vote against it, and notify your
people to stand firm.

THE SHORTEST DAY.

This is the shortest day, and in the calendar is
devoted to st. Thomas-the doubling apostle. In
England, those who are curious in such matters
have observed and put it on record that the sun
never shines on this day; in the spirit of which
observation the old rhyme says:
est Thomas gray, ST. Thomas gray,
The longest night and the shortest day."
In some of the midland counties of England the
day is called "gooding day." and is so named be-
cause the poor people go round among the richer
inhabitants of the parish and get from them con-
tributions of "good things'-money, and meat
and beer, with which to regale themselves during
Christmas tide. In other midland counties it is
known as "doleing day." for the same reason that
the well-to-do are want to give 'dole'' of money
to their more needy neighbors; and in still other
parts it is known as corning day. because the
present takes the form of "peck of corn" (wheat)
In some parishes in the north of England the
charitable have funded their aims, and made the
parish clergyman their almoner. Where this has
taken place there is no itinerant mendicancy; but
the clergyman stands from 8 to 10 o'clock a. m. in
the doorway of the purish church with his head
uncovered, and hands shilling to every poor per-
son OF the parish who proffers claim. This fund,
contributed by the wealthy OF the parish, is called
"St. Thomas Dole.''
st. Thomas day is designated in astronomical
language the "winter solstice,'' because the sun
appears to pull up it were and take breath as he
rounds the goal of the tropic; and for the seven
days AFTER as for the seven days before, there is
no perceptibe difference in the length of the DAYS.
This same period of fifteen days used to be called
by the lively imagination of the Greeks "halcyon
