Farmers Union.

The Farmers Union is growing like
a gourd vine in August, and no doubt
is sinking in the nostrils of the spec
ulator equally as strong as the trod-
den gourd vine smells to the intruder.
When writing this Office for any
information don't forget to enclose
a stamped and addressed envelope for
reply as no appropriation has been
made by the union for stationery for
this purpose. We take pleasure in
passing along any information in our
possession for the benefit Of farmers
but if the answer to their questions is
not worth a two cent envelope to
them, it is not worth while to ask for
it.
Get up fifteen good farmers ready
to form Union and if you don't
know Of any organizer in your Sec
tion we can tell you where to find one
that can put you in the swim and tell
you all about the union.

talk at that time about fear OF the
dispensary people throwing down the
prohibitionists in the senate and thus
continuing the state dispensary sys-
tenn was all bosh. The prohibition
lists had an easy victory in their hands
if they had had judgment enough to
use it. The state dispensary people
will not vote with them again as a
whole, and in my opinion prohibition
will be defeated in the legislature
next spring by bigger mapority than
for ten years. Now that the fight BE-
tween the state dispensary advocates
and those favoring the county system
is over and the county advocates have
won, the state dispensary people in
the course Of year have been able
to get rid Of the smarting Of defeat,
and they are going to line up with
the county option people almost to a
man simply because they believe thai
the county system is much wiser at

A Compliment to the South Carolina
Division of the Farmers Union.

Through the kindness Of Bro. R. H.
McColloen National Secretary, Treas
:urer the following copy of a resolu-
tion offered by the committee on the
good Of the order at the National
Meeting at Little Rock was passed.
Resolution, "We feel the need Of a
bureau Of information for our nation
al union that our people may keep
posted as to the progress of our Or
der in all localities. It is true we have
many excellent papers that keep their
respective states and counties inform
ed but we need digest Of news for
our brethren as We'll as for all papers
friendly to our order. We commend
the efforts of brother J. C.. Stribling
in this and recommend MS plan of
distributing such news. This we re-
fer to our National Board Of Direc-
tors.'
It is we'll to state here that our Ma
tional President Bro. C. S. Barret!
stated at the S. C.. state meeting at
Greenwood that he had seen our S. c.
Union Bureau columns published in
papers all over the south and on the

In order to get rid Of the speculation
prices, it is absolutely necessary to
stop selling cotton until the mills call
for it.
Prices have now taken a turn up
ward but don't begin to turn loose
your cotton until the minimum price
aas been reached; then If prices fall
stop selling right there.
In private conversation between
one Of those foreign cotton spinners
at Atlanta the manufacturer said to
the union men that in order to deal
direct with the mills that the growers
Of cotton must put. up a better and
safer system Of delivering cotton than
they now have through the specula-
tors. He mentioned the fact that he
had lost fifteen thousand dollars at
one time with a New York cotton
man by trusting too far. So it seems
these cotton men in New York skin
the mill men now and tnen as we'll
as the cotton grower.
This is sample Of a common every
day cotton lie. An ex-tel7grapa op-
orator made this tatement to one of
our men that he knows it to be fact
that farmers stored 306 bales. of COT
toR in a S. C. cotton mill warehouse
in one day to be removed or sold by
said farmers at will; and that this
same lot Of cotton was wired to New
York that night as cotton received
by that mill. Such news Of cotton re-
ceived at mills when it was only stor-
ed in their warehouses, ne said was
a common occurrence which goes a
good pace to swell the amount Of cot
ton sold to mills by S. C. farmers.
This is done to swell amount sold to
the mills.

In order to relieve the probable
eongestive conditions when our far
mers warehouses are filled with cot
ton and the threatened stringency Of
money to hold cotton with, comes Our
Farmers Cotton Union mas placed an
agent in Europe to place Farmers
Union cotton there where both store
aga and interest are much cheaper
than on this side Of the water. Be-
side this cheaper rate Of interest and
warehouseipg the cotton will be close
to the mills when the prices get right.

more considerate Of the wants and ne
cessities Of their fowls than men. They
also excel as breeders once they set
their heads to it,
When considered advisable to feed
mashes or soft feed to poultry the best
time to give them is for the early
morning meal. Even with little chick
ems 1t Is best to feed small or cracked
grains at night, while the older fowls
should have the whole grain. Many
of the small fiocks become too fat be-
cause every meal permits of scraps be-
ing obtained, which are thrown out as
fast as accumulated usually three times
a day, and the hens never being hungry
patiently sit around and wait for more.

quent cause of soft-shelled eggs with
hens that are in good condition.
A plentiful supply OF good grit
should always be kept where the fowls
can help themselves. IT is very neces-
sary in aiding the action Of the giz-
zard in grinding the food preparatory
to digestion, and the failure to supply
it is often the foundation OF many ia
tai ailments.
In growing food for poultry 1t should
be borne in mind that corn, wheat, and
oats can always be purchased and 1t is
best therefore to grow sorghum, broom
corn, popcorn, millet and sunfowers for
seed, which afford a good variety, but
which can not be so readily procured in
market.

The new annex to the Rainier-Grand
Hotel has already made a striking
change in the appearance Of Western
avenue in Seattle, in so far as the
commission merchants are concerned.
Among others who have removed south
on the street are Walter Bowen & Co.
Mr.. Bowen has been in the commission
business on Western avenue for nine
years; and his new quarters at 627
Western avenue furnish considerable
more room for the handling of his
business and will enable him to branch
out more heavily even than he has in
the past peculiar fact concerning
his business is that throughout its en-
tirety he does not buy any produce out
right, but handles exclusively on con-
signment. He has built his entire
business up on this plan, making 1t
successful in the past and will con-
tinue along these lines in the future.

THE ADMIRABLE LIGHT BRAHMA.
(Mrs. B. w. Chand


'Tis never-ending source Of wonder
to me that the Light Brahma fowl is
so little known, and so little appreciated
here on the coast Perhaps the latter
is the natural sequence Of the former,
for am sure, if we'll known, they
would win admiration and esteem for
their many good qualities. They are
quiet and easily handled; they require
only a moderate fence to hold them in
their yards; they are good and persis-
tent layers Of large brown eggs that
command an extra price almost invari-
ably, and they are super-excellent as
table fowls. The chicks grow rapidly,
feather quickly, and are ready for the
table as soon as any breed, and from
broiler to rooster the flesh is juicy and
tender, and because of their slow de-
velopement the cockerels may be used
until eight months old with no lessening
Of their value for food. The pullets u.s.
ually begin to lay at eight months old,
but last year mine lowered the time to
seven months, and this year to f1ve-a
splendid showing for so heavy fowl.
They are quite as hardy as other breeds,
and even the damp season of western
Washington fails to effect them, in
spite Of their heavy foot feathering. AS
for food, I am sure they eat no more
than do the Rocks and Leghorns, and
where the latter would use in nervous
energy half they consume, the Brahmas
put to good account every morsel they
swallow. Ten years Of intimate as
ISOLATION has but deepened my admira-
ton for this grand bird.

Also in the line Of sanitary measures
is to remove the eXcrement daily, burn
ing 1t or mixing it with quicklime 1t
can also be moisened with 10 per cent
solution Of sulphuric acid. This acid
is cheap and good disinfectant about
the house or yards any time. Do not
let it come in contact with clothes or
your flesh, as it will cause burns. Pour
it slowly into water. Pouring water
on 1t makes explosions and splashings.
The medicine for the fowls themselves
is a mixture Of two tablespoons Of san
TONNE, two sulphur, two powdered char
coal, two salt, two powdered pome-
granite root bark, one-half teaspoonful
cayenne pepper, one tablespoonful pow
dered copperas. This mixed with six
quarts Of coarse corn meal is enough to
treat 200 chickens. Scald the whole
mixture to crumb1y consistency and
feed for supper. The next morning four
tablespoonfuls sulphur with four quarts
meal moistened with warm water-not
boiling water-should be fed for the
200 chickens for breakfast. This is in
tended to destroy all kinds Of worms
that bother the intestines Of poultry.
Oil Of turpentine is an excellent rem
edy for all worms that inhabit the diges-
tive tract Of poultry, but 1t must be
given through a flexible catheter so as
to be placed in the crop; one to three
teaspoonfu1s is a dose and 1t Is COM
monty weakened with an equal measure
Of olive oil. This last remedy Will gen.
orally be too much trouble.
The time to pick duck feathers is
when they are ripe. This may be
learned by catching two or three and
pulling a few feathers here and there.
If they pull hard and the quilts are
filled with bloody fluid they are not
ripe; but If they pull easy and the
quilts are clear you may know that 1t
is the best time to pick.
Young turkeys should always have
fresh supply Of water from the start,
and 1t should be given in such way
that they can not get into 1t and get
wet.
Especially when the neighbors keep
turkeys.it is a good plan to mark all
the young turkeys when they are two
or three days old. This can be done
by punching one or moro holes in the
web of the foot.
The main reason why women are the
best poultry-raisers is because they are

Worms In Poultry.

Worms in poultry cause much trouble
without their presence being suspected.
The symptoms are so like those OF any
chronic disease that one cannot easily
tell worms are causing the trouble.
Some or all Of the following symptoms
may be noticed: The birds weaken, be-
come dull, emaciated, isolate themselves,
are indisposed to look for food, get stin
in their walk, have diarrhea and may be
epileptiform attacts, the plumage los
ing it's brilliancy and becomes rough.
Finding worms in the droppings or In
the intestines Of dead birds Is the most
certain evidence of trouble from worms
that affect poultry. Fowls should be
put on fresh ground every two or three
wears. and more frequently If worms
are frequently seen in their intestines.
