STRANGE Rise Of Branch.

CYRUS Stratton, a prominent farm
ar. together with his son, residing a
mile east Of Mammoth Spring, drove
into Warm Fork branch Saturday
morning, when the branch was seen
to be considerably on the rise. His
horse lost his footing and was drown
ed. The buggy turned over, catching
his boy under the top and floating sew
eral yards down the stream. The boy
was rescued in safety, but the buggy
and horse have not been found. The
branch is shallow, scarce more than
a ravine. and was never so high before,
and as there has been no rain here Tor
several days, the cause of the rise Is
unaccounted for.

Twenty or 80 years ago the back
country squatters, in order to destroy
kangaroos, used to dig huge pits at
the corners of their paddocks, running
yards of calico along their wire fences
and then drive the kangaroos into the
pits, clubbing and shooting them. In
those days kangaroo skins were OF nc
value; now that they are almost ex
tinct, there is great demand for
them. The flesh of a young kangaroo
is by no means to be despised. and
kangaroo tail soup is delicacy now
hardly to be obtained.

NOT FIT TO BELONG.
One of the Sort That Can't Live Up
to the Standard.

but ii get IL all back
With big crop of cotton"
The man who sings such a song an
the above is not fit to be a member
of the Farmers Union. Such a man
is d1shonor to the order and not
worth a cent anywhere on farm. A
man so busy running after all cotton
that he neglects his cows and let's
them go dry and makes no preparation
for their increase is not worthy a
place in any local anywhere. The So.
called farmer who allows his stables
to be wet and muddy, thereby causing
every horse and mule on the place to
have the scratches. besides other dis.
eases, is like a COW that gives a gallon
of milk and then kicks it all over.
The farmer whose meat Is in Chi
cago and his corn is to get is bur-
den to any local and should be ex-
Guided before the next breakfast is
eaten.
Procrastination is ruinous thing
and causes so much trouble and extra
expense. When the house needs re-
pairing, why not meet the necessity
promptly and repair it before the rain
or winters snow is falling or fix up
his fences horse high, pig tight and
bull strong before his hogs become
educated in all kinds of mischief and
the cows become unmanageable. II
a hog is never allowed to learn mis-
chief it may be kept under very
poor fence. but just one lesson is
enough to ruin the best hog.
See how foolish this deluded man
when he sings in such mournful
wall, But I'll get it all back with a
big crop of cotton" The big crop Of
cotton is a delusion and snare to
him, his fond hopes never materialize;
he is in no shape to make a big crop
OF cotton and therefore the big crop
never comes his way.
The real intention Of the Union IS
to organize farmers who live at home,
or who are making every edge cut
to live at home in one solid phalanx,
strong enough to hold every product
made on the farm until just and fair
price is offered for it.
If understand the objects OF the
Union, this is the point to be gained
to place ourselves where we may live
on our own sweat-made resources and
look the financial world in the eye
until justice comes our way.
There is no use to listen to the silly
song that farmers can not be bound
together. 1t can be done. 1t will be
done or the farmers children will ere
long beg for bread and lack for clothes
to hide their nakedness.
The principles taught by the Union
must prevail or all is lost. X. Nc
