ADVICE TO FARMERS.
Sell to "Pfn HoOkerS" and Get
HIGHER Prices for Tobacco.

/ Editor County Record
| have received notice Of farmers
re-organizing at different places.
Friends, it is time to do something.
We have let some one else do our
thinking years too long now.
| received a letter from tobacco
warehouse few days ago that read
something like this: Bring Your to-
bacco to--warehouse; we will take
care of you. We don't belong to the
Trust, but we are not buying tobacco
in the country this year, etc.
We don't think it is best, friends;
there is where our trouble has al
ways been. We have let the other
man do the thinking, and we have
done the work. What should we
care about what they thought!
Whom does the tobacco and cotton
belong to? | would say to the Trust:
The farmer makes it, but the Trust
says where he shall sell il" Is that
business? 1t reminds me of the blind
man walking about holding out his
hands, not saying what must be put
into them, but will be thankful for the
little that may fall into his hand.
The tobacco warehouses are looking
to the interest of the farmer-what
do they care for the farmer any fur
ther than that the dollar go to them?
Come together, farmer friends,
and let's sell what we make as we
want to, or hold it until they come to
our prices. We have the goods; let
the so-called pinhoOker come to the
country and buy tobacco as anything
else the farmer has for sale. When
you carry your tobacco to the wal e.
house you can hear them say: We
have got him now; he will take what
we give him." | have sold my to-
bacco at the warehouse and | have
sold at horne and | always got more
more at home.
Hope | may hear from others on
the subject. believe in free trade

ADVICE TO FARMERS.
Cut Out "Pin HoOkers" and Get
Hiaher Prices for Tobacco.

Editor County Record:
On account of unfavorable sea-
sons there is very short crop OF to-
bacco in this State and prices rule
much higher than for some years,
as has been indicated by the prim-
ings that have so far been sold on
the warehouse floors.
These lines are especially penned
for the planters who have been IN
the habit of selling their crops at
their barns to country buyers and by
so doing have not realized what they
would have, had they placed their
tobaccos on the warehouse floors and
given all buyers showing, and have
let their tobaccos go to the highest
bidder, if the prices were satisfac-
tory. Every planter has the right,
if he offers mis- tobaccos on the floor,
TO take same in if the prices do not
please him, then why will they con-
tinue to sell at barns? We do not
say they have not the right to sell
wherever they please, but if they will
stop to think that the country buyer
can pay for transportation, ware
house charges and make profit on
what they pay him, they must. as a
matter of course, buy the tobacco
cheaper at the barns than they can
were the planter to place same on
the warehouse floor and let the
many buyers have an opportunity to
bid on same.
More buyers are on the South
Ca,,lina markets than have been
ttrre before in years. Such being
the case, and all having large orders
to buy, why not cut out selling at
the barns and offer your tobaccos on
warehouse floors? Those that have IN
the past sold their tobaccos at their
barns will realize that they have
been badly burnt by so doing and
will not do so again.
Don't be hoodwinked by country
buyers who, after looking at your
tobaccos and finding out you will
not sell at your barns, offer you
prices that they know are above its
value, but do so simply to make you
dissatisfied when you offer the to-
baccos at the markets.
Of all years this is the year to
stop selling at your barns. Sell your
tobaccos on the warehouse floors on
any market in the State, ard you
will get the best prices you have in
years. JUSTICE.

Rankin an opinion in which he held
that the State Board of Agriculture.

Powers Given cut.

A dispatch from Washington Tues
day says: 1.-The sensational feature
Of the proceedings in the House of

of the nine Democratic Congress smcn
from Kentucky to take the oath of
office with their Republican colleague.
Caleb Powers. of the Eleventh Dis.
trict. who was several times convicted
of the assassination of William Goebel,
finally to be pardoned by the present
Republican Governor.
The oath of Office was administered
to the House in grOurs of states.
When the state Of Kentucky was called
Representative Powers and his Repub-
lican colleague, Representative Lang
ley. appeared at the bar of the House.
The nine Democratic Congressman
waited until the oath of Office had been
administered to Powers and he had re-
sumed his seat. When the next group
of states was called the Kentucky
Oemocl ats came forward and were
sworn in, The action was unnoticed
in the House and galleries. and it vas
not until several minutes later that it
became noised about the House that
Powers had been "cut."
A number of democrats have an
nounced that they will not serve on
any committee to which he is assigned.
It was at first the intention If the
Kentucky delegation to demand that
Powers be refused the koath of Office,
following the precedent in the Roberts

this proceeding Was too revolutionary.
