Cotton Mill Merger Scare.

Up-to-date Farmers Union men
see no good in growing about ere
financing" and the recent big "merg-
ing" of the mills. 1t Is a plain fact
that many Of the mills are in a bad
way, and If they don't "refnance"
and merge" some, they will be sub
merged and go under where cotton
growers we're when cotton was five
cents-before the Union went into
business.
Our mill men are GOOD fellow
competitors with cotton growers for
profit out of cotton. These mill men
are smart business men and are
working not to injure the farmer,
but to take care Of their own inter-
ests, and all the cotton growers have
to do to protect their interests, is to
copy some Of these mill movements
by "refinancing" the Farmers Union
and then Emerge" some, too. Cotton
growers ca. t get along without the
mills, nor mills can't do business
without a profit between the cotton
grower and users Of cotton goods.
These mill men are hemmed in be-
tween high-priced cotton and low
priced goods. and they have their
backs bowed up and in for kicking
and biting, too. The price Of goods
will have to go up and cotton will
go down.
If the cotton grower holds to what
he has gained, he will have to roll up
his sleeves, get into the Farmers
Union again-strong-and %refnance
the Union, and merge the whole FAM
lily into the Union and make the cat
jump away from the farmer. The
Farmers Union must get some
strong men in the field for this
summers campaign and "refnance"
the Union and talk for merging" the
whole farming family into the I'm
ION, and hold fast to what we have.
1t should be much the easiest Job to
hold prices at Is cents per pound
than 1t was to fight from five cents
up to Is cents per pound.
The progressive Farmers Union
men now know that we can grow
the same number Of bales Of cotton
to the farm on one-third less acres
and plant at least one-third in grain
and forage crops. We should
merge" the boys into Hog and HON.
my Clubs and the women into Fry
ing Chicken Clubs"

Editor Keowee Courier: I have de-

friends and relatives in South Caro-

enjoying life.
Mr.. Lowell and I left our home in
Sabula, Iowa, May 8. We went over
two OF u friends, Mr.. and Mrs, Full
Ter, till 10 o'clock in the evening.
We then took the Burlington train
for Minneapolis, where we arrived at
s o'clock in the morning. The road
runs all the way under the bluffs of
the Mississippi, s o there was not
much to see except river scenery but
that was beautiful. The scenery
along Lake Pippin was fine. Tie wa
ter in the Mississippi Is very low at
this time Of the year. We stopped
three days in Minneapolis to see the
sights in the two cities. st. Paul is
near Minneapolis. Located in Min
neapolis are the largest -four mills in
the world. 1t looks as though there
are elevators and -four mills every
where. There is a large amount Of
grain Of all kinds shipped here.
Minneapolis has a population Of
335, 900 and st. Paul nearly as many.
They are the most beautiful cities in
the Northwest. All streets are fine,
being we'll paved; the residences
have fine yards and all kept clean
and nice; the business houses are
handsome, and are built in the most
modern styles. The glass block Is a
wonder, the entire block being built
Of steel frames and plate glass. This
Is as fine q business block as can be
found anywhere.
We took the street car and went to
st. Paul. This trip took us through
a double-track tunnel. After taking
In the city we went to the State Cap
itol, which Is truly beautiful. The
best marble Of many colors and
markings Of all the world forms the
massive columns. In this building
there are many beautiful paintings
and statues. Mr.. Lowell was much
interested in seeing the old battle
flags and drums that belonged to the
State regiments during the rebellion.

down to the ship canal and saw the
