IT SEEMED INCURABLE
Body Raw with Eczema-Discharqed from Hospitals as opeIess-Cuti-
 cura Remedies Cured Him.

From the age of three months until fifteen years old, my son Owens life was made intolerable by eczema in it's worst form. In spite of treatments the disease gradually spread until nearly every part of his body was quite raw. He used to tear himself dreadfully in his sleep and the agony he went through is quite beyond words. The regimental doctor pronounced the case hopeless. We had him in hospitals four times and he was pronounced one of the worst cases ever admitted. From each he was discharged as in- curable. We kept trying remedy after remedy, but had gotten almost past hoping for a cure Six months ago we purchased a set of Cuticura Remedies. The result was truly mar velous and today he is perfectly cured. Mrs. Lily Hedge, Camblewell Green, England, Jan. 12, 1907."

FOUNDED ON coMMoH SENSE.

The Farmers Union has come to stay. It has evolved from it's chrysalis state into fell grown business organ ization. Railroads and their misera- ble hireling lawyers may attempt to disrupt it and labor attempt to create ny-a-liners may seek to lead it astray with their scribblings, but it will all be in vain, will eventuate in nothing. No business undertaking can succeed in a week, or a month, or year, and ours, scarcely more than in it's incipi- ency, so stupendous is the work 1t must do, and so vast the manchinery it must get into movement that we cannot hope to do all we intend to do for some years. Remember, we havc to undo the wrongs, the errors, the evils of forty years, and right the in justice of all this ghastly nightmare of oppression and spoilation. We have to adjust our machinery and get 1t running smoothly. We have got to combat and overcome the carpings of the envious, the errors of imbecility, the machinations of the designing in our own ranks, and repel the ap- breaches and efforts of our enemies from without, and at the same time build up strongly and surely, perfecting it in every detail, the bus mess system needful for the great transactions we have undertaken. The 1c al all industrial lines must be accom- plished, and it will take time for us to do all these things.
 The Farmers Union is not a politi- cal party, but a strictly business or ganization. It was not organized, nor is it to be run in the interest of the Democratic, the Populist, the Repub- lican, the Socialist, nor any other po- litical party, nor of any candidate or candidates. Neither has it come into being to further any church or reli- gious propaganda, or to do anything under the sun but to secure just, hon. est, fair prices for farm products and for the uplift and betterment also, so- cially and educationally, of all farm ing classes. These things the Union can achieve onlT by the adoption, maintenance and pursuit of strictly business methods, and in business there ie no sentiment, hence no man or set Tf men can stand in the way of our onward and upward progress to the ultimate victory so surely, and it can be so easily within our grasp, if common sense alone shall prevail.- National Co-Operator.

HAD TO GET STRENGTH FIRST.
Hard Worked Woman Not Ready to
 Face Hired Girl Problem.

A Massachusetts man, whose busi- ness frequently takes him over the line into Vermont, says that one even ing he was a guest at a farm house in that state when he observed that the wife of the owner-a poor, wan little woman-was doing every bit of the work around the house.
 As he himself put it. she did an amount of work that would have put an ordinary Massachusetts horse to shame and he really felt like a vil- lain sitting there watching her.
 Feeling considerable compassion for the woman, who looked as if ready to drop from overwork, the visitor asked:
 Why don't you get help here? Surely you are not going to try to pull through the long winter without a hired girl"
 A sickly smile came to the pallid face of the woman. "Waal, I dunno she said. q don't feel as if l could just yit; but p'raps ef I should get to feelin' a little better and stronger l might illustrated Magazine.

FARMERS' EDUCATIONAL
 AND COOPERATIVE UNION
AND THE COTTON MILL MAN TOO.
OF AMERICA

AS to the condition of the cotton mlll interests there is no journal in the country which speaks with more authority than the American Textile Manufacturer, and not only our cotton farmers, but the people of the South as whole will be interested in this summary of recent and prospective conditions in the textile world:
 The measure of prosperity enjoyed oy all but few minor branches of the textile industry, up to the advent of the present financial unsettledness, was nothing less than phenomenal. It was a record of demand far in excess Of the productive capacity of the mills; of steady advances in raw ma terlals, wages and all other factors entering into the cost of production; of an inadequate labor supply; of an advance in prices of textile products that carried them far above the levels that seemed exorbitant a year ago; and of demand that. even after two months of financial unsettledness, has prevented the accumulation of stocks of dangerous volume. What is more, this prosperous condition of the textile industry has been world wide, and this in spite of an enormous expansion in the cotton spinning branches of the industry in England and Japan With in three years nearly 12,000000 new spindles and complementary machin- cry have been installed in the Lan- cashire district of England, and are now well employed in the manufacture of cotton yarns and piece goods. :. While all divisions of the textile mar ket have felt the effect of the financial depression, yet, perhaps, no other sec tion has been in better condition to withstand the quiet which has been so prevalent during the last two months as that connected with the manufacture and sale of cotton gods"

"Forsake not the assembling of yourselves together" and when you get together, DO SOMETHING along the line of making the life of the farm CTS more encouraging to the youg peo- pie With the Agricultural and Me- chanical Colleges now in opera tion in almost every State, there is no sense in the farmer holding down his business below the level of the other learned professions. It is all stuff that the book former" is no farmer at all. It is that identical fel. low who is now leading in the move ment to tighten the burden of the old fashioned way of Init and miss" farm ing; it is he who is showing the world that there is no Great American Des- ert" that all of us older chaps used to see on the maps. Yes, it is this fellow who is showing us that big corn, cot ton and wheat crops can be raised on these cactus covered desert wastes. You wake up and get modernized.

Don't be disturbed by the little "ruc. tions'' that come up at times in the management of the Union. The time has not yet come for human ambition to submit itself always to the good of the community, and until this thing does come about. there will be little frictions here and there. The main thing to remember is that the big old Union is founded upon principles as old as mankind, and which would be incontrovertible abstract truths If there were no men and no more time.

MT. Farmer: If the road running along your property line has been
 nicely graded and ditched, don't you honestly think the very least you can
 do for yourself and neighbors is to have a split-log drag in readiness for use after every heavy rain? The time when you will be operating it will be a time when it will be practically i'm nossible for you to be doing anything else. The use of the drag will keep the road free from ruts and holes, nicely rounded, and each time 1t is
 worked over it will stand up against the rains just that much better. ls is worth the time, effort and energy necessary to secure the results that are bound to follow-Denison Herald.
