The Farmers Union.
History Of the Organization
that is Gaining Members
at the Rate of 5000 a Day.

of the News and Courier gives
the following interesting history
of the Farmers Union, the South
Carolina branch of which held
its annual meeting In Greenwood
last week, at which 500 or more
delegates were present:
The Union is only four years
old and was organized in Texas
in 1908, and is growth has
been marvellous. 1t has attempt
ed to profit by the mistakes OF
the Alliance and other farmers
organizations, and to build Oil q
better foundation. The mud-sill
Of the organization is co-opera'
ton in buying and selling, and
among its tenets is mutual help
to members of the Union, TO
promote better methods OF farm
ing and an Improvement of farm
life.
The Union is organized in %
States, and the South Carolina
branch was organized three years
ago. 1t requires 5000 members
to secure a State organization,
and the South Carolina State or
ganization was only instituted
last wear. Anderson County Is
the stronghold OF the union tor
this State-the first union in
South Carolina being Sepius
Union No, /, with 7. [. WaRe-
field president. The union now
claims 10000 members in South
Carolina, all located above Col
umbia. They have no organiza-
ton in the low country.
The Farmers Union is secret
order, and usually holds monthly
meetings. The dues are nominal,
only 60 cents Fer year for all
purposes. There are the national
union, State unions, county un-
ions and local unions. All mat
ters of legislation Of the order
has to 90 through all these chan
nels before it can be determined,
and a majority rule prevails on
all questions. In addition to
regular officers, such as presi
dent, vice president, etc, the
local unions have II business
agent, and then there is head
business agent for the county.
The main work of the union
in this section has been the mar
keting OF cotton. a member of
the union, or an outsider for that
matter, puts his cotton in the
hands of the county business
agent for sale. The owner of the
cotton makes his price he is
willing to take. When the busi-
ness agent can secure that price
he sells the cotton.
The unions have In this sec
tion a system of ware houses
built by members OF the unions,
but the ware houses are not
union property, but are organized
corporations, each separate, un
der the laws Of the State. Regu
lar rates of storage and insurance
are charged, and a fee Of 80 cents
a bale is also charged for samp.

er the cotton Is in ware mouse
or not, if he instructs the agent
to sell his cotton at a stated
price, and the agent does SO, he
must deliver the cotton at the
time stated under penalty of ex-
pulsion from the order.
Thus far, the unions have not
bought a great deal in bulk.
They state they only cooperate
in buying trust controlled goods,
such as fertilizers Though in
cases hey have bought -four, etc i,
in large lots.
Partisan politics are forbidden
by the constitution to be discuss-
ed in local III ions, but leading
union member said ne would al
ways vote for the man repre-
senting his principles. SO while
the union may. be in politics
tits closely identified. During the
past session of South Carolina
Legislature the Farmers Union,
of this county, made an effort
to have the lien law repealed but
failed. The unions disclaim any
connection with the labor unions
or any other organization what
ever, and claim to operate indie
pendently. This was impressed
on the founders of the order by
the fact of the wreck of the once
powerful Alliance. But if my
memory is correct the National
Union last year adopted reso.
luton endorsing the Union Priu.
ters in their strike for eight
hours. AS the members of The
Farmers Union are mostly EN-.
ployers themselves this is likely
to cause some awkward compi-
cations should ii be brought too
close home. But the Union will
steer clear of these matters when
tley come too close.
The great fight OF the Union
now is the abolishment of cotton
exchanges and cotton speculators
They believe the New York Cot
ton Exchange is against their
interest and are fighting for its
abolishment. In this matter they
unite with the Western unions
for the abolish ment of the grain
exchanges. They claim it is for
the producer TO say what he will
take for his produce and not the
speculator, and the advance in
the price of cotton the past sea
son has greatly strengthened the
Union and the faith OF its mem
bers. Cotton has brought a bet
Ger price sold in round lots than
in smaller quantities.
Ware houses are Icing built
at many points in this section,
and the day is not far distant
when all cotton will be sold
through ware houses, the same
as tobacco is now. Here is where
one Of the objects of the Union
comes in : to bring the grover
and spinner closer together and
eliminate the middle man, to
sell their cotton direct TO the mill
and eliminate speculation.

JIMMIEBOY'S TALE OF CHRISTMAS NIGHT

Jimmieboy was delighted when Christmas Day dawned 10 find, not in his stocking, which was hardly large enough to contain anything so bulky. but hidden under a lot of books and other gifts piled up near the mantel- piece. a splendid tool chest. containing no end of fine weapons such as the carpenter uses in fighting the battles of life. There was a bright. shining saw that looked sharp enough to cut anything from a muffin of Jimmie boys own making to a petrified oak; q hammer that you'd almost think could drive nail through the Rock of Gib- raltar: Jack-plane that could make a shaving a mile long if only you could find piece of wood big enough to provide the material for il; and a screw driver that-well, I've seen all sorts of drivers in my day but never one that could drive like that screw driver. no. not even in the circus. There were a lot of other things. too gimlets. awls. augers-this auger was about the biggest bore you ever met ip your life--a hatchet and ruler It was as Jimmieboy's Uncle Periwinkle remarked just about the most "splen- diferous tool chest that ever happen ed and when his Uncle added that he believed the tools were bright enough to build a house ell by themselves without asking any help from any
 body. Jimmieboy began to think that santa Claus had left him a very un- usual present-and as a matter of fact he had. as subsequent events showed.

 mas that year where Jimmieboy lived. because outside they were having what grownup people called an old fashioned snow storm-the kind where IL seems as if the sky must be filled with hired men throwing whole show elfuls of snow down upon the earth all at once. One might almost think that someone had grabbed up an Alp or two and was shaking it like a mastodon pepper pot over Jimmieboy's house, the way that snow came down. By two o'clock. without any drifting at all. it was half way up the front door: and when five o'clock came. and it began to grow dark, Uncle Periwinkle said he thought somebody ought to go up on the roof and hang q red lantern on the chimney, so that people passing by on foot wouldn't stub their toes on il, or fall into it and come crashing down the fireplace. which would have been q most embarrassing thing If the per son happened to be a perfect strang

You can imagine from this not only how thoughtful a man Uncle Periwinkle was. but also how inpossi- -ble il was for youngster like Jimmie boy to play out of doors on such a day, and why it was that the walls of the house. and the piano legs. and the polished hardwood floor. were in great danger all day long. It is a terrible thing to be cooped up in a house with a brand new tool chest staring you in the face. the saw just aching to plough its way through nice smooth piano CT table leg. the hammer perfectly pos sessed to drive a nail or two into the dining room walls and the Jack-plane

 The bow and its arrows were almost always carried on the back in cases made of the skins of animals. The bow case was long and narrow bag. just wide enough to admit the un- strung bow. Immediately beneath that and parallel 10 it. both cases usually being attached to a stiff rod of wood nearly as long as the quiver was the shorter. wider bag for the arrows. It was slightly longer than the arrow. and when arrows were to be drawn from it they were grasped about the feathers. so as to prevent this impor- tant part of the dart from being ruff fled.
 Among the plains tribes in old times the best quiVers and bow cases were made from the skin of the otter, but the hide of the panther was highly val- ued for this purpose. and bow cases and quivers were frequently made from the hide of the buffalo calf. In later times the skins of cattle were used for the same purpose. and l have an old bow case and quiver made from the skin of a mule. one of the pack train of the Seventh cavalry killed at the time of the Custer fight.

INDIAN BOW AND ARROW.
Materials From Which They Were
 Madeline Culver.

The bows of the North American In- dians were made of wood bone or horn. Sometimes the bow was made of several pieces; perhaps it was of wood alone. or it might be backed by sinew or by the skin of some animal. The material for the weapon was gath cred. says Forest and Stream. when ever it was possible. and man might have in his lodge a number of sticks each of which he intended ultimately to fashion into a bow. or if he did not live long enough for this the bow wood would descend to his heirs. As the most important implement of hunter or warrior the bow was highly valued.
 Bows of bone were made sometimes of sections of the rib of large animals, spliced and glued together. and were usually backed by sinew. Those of the antler of the elk were sometimes in a single piece. and at other times in sec tions bevelled at the ends and neatly glued and spliced. Bows of horn were often made of several pieces similarly -glued and spliced. but the horns of the mountain sheep were sometimes cut into long and slender rods which were laid together. glued and backed by sinew.
 Another type of sheep horn bow was in single piece. the horn being cut in spiral from base or horn to point. this spiral being steamed or boiled and then strengthened and caused to dry straight. Bows such as these were un- usual, but they were also very power full and never wore out. On the other hand it is said that bows made of bone or of antler were more for show than for use. They were good to look at and for a time were effective but af- ter a few years became dry and brit tie.
 Next to the bow. and in fact so much a part of it that it cannot be separated from it, is the arrow. q complex impie- ment the development of which we may imagine to have been very slow. and which no doubt was we'll advanced toward its present form before the bow was thought of We may fancy the arrow to be the outerowth of a simple stabbing instrument. which de- velcpcd into a dart to be thrown. sim liar to certain toys still in use among the children of our plains Indians.
 The arrow consisted of three essen tiai parts. the head. the shaft and the feathers. Sometimes the shaft was compound. consisting of more than one piece of wood. The primitive head was very various. The feathering is comparatively a modern invention. so much so that today traditicHs exist as to it's development and the various steps toward the improved feathering of modern times are given. Even within the last forty or fifty years the children among our wilder tribes have employed very primitive form of ar rows without heads and having merely a sharpened. fire hardened point. ar rows without feathers and again ar rows feathered after an earlier method of which. as practiced by adults. we know only by tradition.

leave for the Coast tomorrow on the
Alameda, after a stay of nearly two
months in the Territory. In this time
he has made a thorough inspection of
the Honolulu plantation, as well as of
the Matson properties on Hawaii. In
speaking of the Honolulu plantation
yesterday be said:
'The manufacturing of refined SUI
gar of the first quality at Aiea has
turned out very well. This you should
be able to see yourself from the sugar
which can be bought at the grocery
stores in the city, and which is main
ly from our new refinery. 1t has given
the best of satisfaction as far as we
can find out, and / believe that we
are producing as high a grade of SUI
gar as can be found anywhere.

on the Alameda on Wednesday, after
a long stay here, in which I have made
a good many trips around the islands.
