AMERICAN SOCIETY OF EQUITY.

Editor THE CHRONICLE:
Our union has not come togethersince
our last communication hence there is
little news of interest. In regard TO our
work, it seems that some OF the mer-
chants age getting little uneasy. But
We ask them to take it easy; come, join
with us and help us, and you will get
help in time OF need. Don't blame the
union for doing thing that you would
do yourself. All we ask is fair deal
which will give us Our rights. 1t does
no good for him to say that those who
pool theirpeanuts willwant to buy goods
next year. | expect so, and they may
want to sell goods, too. He should rec
ollect that his trade comes from equity
men-men who have been at the mercy
Of the Spectator and are trying to free
themselves from a condition of almost
bondage. The fair-minded merchant
fully understands this, and is ready aud
willing TO aid us in every way he can ,
Our motto is to try and raise what we
can sell and have supply left for home
consumption. Let us try andraise more
corn and hogs and potatoes, and stop
buying those products that we can raise
on the farm. 1t has got ito the point that
fullytwo-thirds of the people ifnotmore
depend on the market for yearly sup
plies, the writer included
How can we expect to be free people
as long as we raise peanuts to sell at 80
and 10 cents. We can never get out Of
debt as long as we buy meat, corn, hay
and other products of the farm. True,
the farmer raises hogs enough tosuppIy
the country in bacon, but the peanut crop
cuts the corn crop short we hardly raise
corn enough to get our pigs large enough
for marketwhen we are forced to sell at
whatever price the Spectator maycon-
clude to give as, which is small enough
at best. We take the little mite we get
for our hogs to the merchant and have
him order us box OF bacon, with The re-
mark that sit won't he enough TO do me,
but haven't the money to bny more. ,"
When this is out we go to the merchant
and ask credit for few pounds ofabacon
until we can finish our crops.
This is why we are equity men, and if
the writer is not sadly mistaken this is
what the American Society OF Equity
was organized for--to encourage and aid
the farmer in not going in debt too deep
so he can live at home and bold his sur
plus produce until he can getits value.
Now word for THE Chronicle and to
the brethren Of the A. s. of f. let us
all subscribe for THE CHRoNIcLE and
have department in paper right here
at home. believe its editor is a friend
Of the.union and will aid us in every way
possible.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1907

From every view point the farm
ing class ofthis, county is in better
shape now than at any period since
the civil war. More people own
their own homes and little farms;
more are free from the yoke Of
bondage inflicted by burdensome
debts; more are becoming indie
pendent each, year by making a
comfortable living for their famil-
les; more are waking up to the ne
cessity Of giving their children
better educational advantages, and
withal, prosperity and content
ment seem to prevail throughout
the country. Let progress still be
our watchword.

IN MEMORY or ORA LEE.

The reaper with his sickle has again
been among our flowers, and one ofthe
fairest, sweetest buds of earth has been
borne away to that bBiaht land where,
like the rose, it viii blossom forever.
Tuesday, December 10, an angel came
down and kissed the sweet spirit Of little
Ora Lee, infant son Of Mr.. and Mrs. II.
+. Farmer. Oh, how sad and lonely we
are without him. His stay among us was
short, being two weeks and two days old,
butall learned to love that precious little
form and sweet voice.
We would say to the fond parents to
weepnot, for your little darling is enjoy
ing the pleasures Of Heaven. Too pure
for earth, little Ora lee was called to
II i'm who said, "Suffer little children to
come unto me-, - and is there now wait
ing for papa and mamma and little sister
to join him and enjoy thonever- ending
blessings of that blissful abode.
Strive to live as God would have yon
do, and when your LIES work isfinished
you can JOlu your udtl my bduoj Wiioj III
spotless robes, is today singing with the
angels And may we all submssively
say:
Mammals precious darling among the
angels rest
Removed from earthly sorrows yonder
Joys to test.
Alas, mortals are frail, life is a brittle
thread
Little Ora Lee isin Heaven-not dead.
Near the Savior's bos2m encilcied in
his arms
Happy children linger, oh, so safe
from harm.
Over in this Homeland soon we will
meet him there,
Eternal bliss and glory rest, peaeeand
joy to share.
Sleep on in thy beauty, thou sweet
angel child,
BY sorrow unblighted, by sia undefiled.
A. FRIEND.
