Don't Dump on the Market.

Some say they won't hold their cot ton any more. If enough say that and act we will see cotton sell for hve or six cents, the old price received before farmers began to do business like oth- CT business people. This is the year to hold. The reason that cotton has run down now is because they think the farmers are going to dump again this year, but just as soon as they see that you intend to hold for a just price, cotton will go up. If we farm CTS had the nerve that the bankers had last fall, bulk our cotton and issue script, say S30 to $50 per bale for twelve months bearing interest, you would soon see where the price would go. Now, we can do that, but will we? You know the bankers met and put whatever kind of paper they had up with a committee as collateral and then issued certain per cent of scrip on that collateral and you know there is no security as good as cotton in- sured in a warehouse
 Iue buTH6L 1eA.J buHellu euItOE says that people want to pay high for what they get, which is one way of keeping money in circulation. He says: "The average man on given occasions acts curiously Let cattle go out of sight and almost every man will not only decline to sell, but will bend his energies to buy more. Let sheep reach the top notch and every man who can run sheep not only keeps what he has, but buys more. Let horses sell for twice what they are worth and every man in the community becomes horse deahr. Let hogs go up and everybody wants hogs. Cotton at Pc looks too good to go, while at Sc the market is glutted with the staple. Several years ago when land could be bought for song nobody wanted it, but today with the price almost Prohibitive the coun- try is land mad"

Farmers Organization.

It seems to be universal of all the people who take an interest in cotton to credit the influences exerted in fla vor of the producer for the compara- lively good price the lint has brought during the entire season. This is true with spinners, merchants, students and farmers. In fact, I hear almost daily remarks tending that way, some going so far as to say had it not been for these influences cotton would have gone to six cents. The producer has made himself felt and should be ac- cordingly proud of it; should resolve to stand by these influences, be guid- ed by. the sane leaders and support such papers as have proven loyal to the cause of the great army of cotton grow CTS. Of the 1908 crop let all resolve the crop will be marketed slowly and that every support possible will be given those who are fighting for high CT prices-Searcy (Ark.) News.

BY WAY OF COMPARISON.
Youngsters First Efforts in the Realm
 of Natural History.

Four-year-old Clyde was a preco- cious youngster-very talkative and a close observer. He and his father were strolling through the meadows one morning when Clyde observed, for the first time, some tadpoles in a ponde He waded in and cried out in delight: "Oh, father, what are they?"
 'Tadpoles, son." the father replied.
 Please, father, let's take them all home with us, then come back and find the mamma and papa, and we'll have the whole family in our pond at home"
 The father explained how impossi- ble this would be, and as he walked on a few steps a large ugly frog hopped across their path. Clyde's father said: Look, son, perhaps there is the papa" :"
 Clyde was very thoughtful. He looked at the frog, then at his father, then at himself and exclaimed:
 Well, father, was there ever so much difference between me and you?"

 Cure to Cuticura.

Several months ago, my little boy began to break out with itching sores. I doctored him, but as soon as I got them healed up in one place they would break out in another 1 was almost in despair. I could not get anything that would help him. Then I began to use Cuticura Soap and Cuti- cura Ointment, and after using them three times, the sores commenced to heal. He is now well, and not scar is left on his body. They have never returned nor left him with bad blood, as one would think. Cuticura Reme- dies are the best I have ever tried, and I shall highly recommend them to any one who is suffering likewise. Mrs. William Geeding, 102 Washing

ASTONlSHED THE DOCTOR Old Lady Got We'll with Change of
 Food.

A great scientist has said we can put off ''old age" if we can only nourish the body properly.
 To do this the right kind of food, of course, is necessary. The body manu- factures poisons in the stomach and intestines from certain kinds of food stuffs and unless sufficient of the right kind is used, the injurious clements overcome the good.
 My grandmother, n years old" writes a N. Y. lady, had been an in- valid for IS years from what was called consumption of the stomach and bowels. The doctor had given her up to die
 T saw so much about Grape Nuts that persuaded Grandmother to try it. She could not keep anything on her stomach for more than few minutes.
 ''She began Grape-Nuts with only a teaspoonful. As that did not distress her and as she could retain it, she took a little more until she could take all of teaspoonfuls at meal.
 Then she began to gain and grow strong and her trouble in the stomach was gone entirely. She got to enjoy good health for one so old and we know Grape-Nuts saved her life.
 '.The doctor was astonished that in stead of dying she got well, and with out drop of medicine after she began the Grape-Nuts.'' There's Reason" "

Union Not Responsible for Night
 Riders

Nothing could be further from tho truth than the charge made by those unfriendly to farmers organizations that the night riders who have been warning farmers and ginners in Ar kansas and Mississippi against gin ming and marketing cotton are actual ed by the Farmers Union. One of the leading principles of this organization is obedience to the law and its mot to is the Golden Rule. If there are men who belong to the order engaged in these unlawful acts they are doing so in violation of the law of the Un- ion as well as the law of the land. The Farmers Union wants cotton gin- ned slowly and held off the market until the minimum price is reached and then so slowly that no one will know it is reached, but it realizes this can be done only by appeals to mems reason and patriotism and not by brute force.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-07-13

This table shows the drift of public sentiment. Men about 50 years old are preferred This is probably due to the fact that as the country increases in population and size the task of govern ing it is considered too heavy for any but men of full strength. MT. Taft is but 51 years old, and Mir. Bryan is 49. No man has ever been elected to the presidency who has passed the age of 6S years.
 As a rule ex-Presidents do not live long. and yet John Adams, who was 66 at the end of his term lived 25 years, afterward, dying at the age of 91 years. He was the only ex-President who lived to the nineties. Jefferson and Madison died in their eighties. All the rest died younger. James K. Polk was but B years old when death car ried him from this world and Garfield was 49 years old when an assassin shot him down.
