could have our own homemade flour
to do us and to sell; with, plenty of
oats at home we could feed our stock
| on them, which is better than feeding
all corn, and much cheaper than buy
ing them.
This is one side of the question.
, Let us see what the other is:
When we buy these things that
ought to be raised at home we send
a lot OF money out Of the country
that is needed at home and never
comes back. To change our mode of
farming will help us in many ways.
TO seed the land down and SOW the
Stubble in peas is a good way. and a
cheap way, to improve it, and we
wont have to buy so much OF the
high-priced guanO that takes some
times the greater portion OF the
crops to pay for it, and in the long
run leaves us in worse condition
than it found us.
1t is said that this all-cOttOn plant
ing business is worse than gambling
in the end. for sometimes the gam
bier wins. 1t has been the aim Of
all OF the farmers organizations that
have ever existed to get the farmers
TO produce their own supplies at
home instead of buying them. If the
ORGANIZATIONS had succeeded in doing
what they tried to do, the farmers
would nave had their own supplies
at home, their warehouses built,
would have had some place to store
the cotton, and would have been able
to meet the blow. But TO buy ferti-
liZcrS and supplies at a high price,
aiming TO pay for them with l3 and
i-cent cotton, and have to take
about half, makes quite a difference.
1t might have been hard to prove
who hit Billy Patterson, but there is
not any more evidence needed to
prove that it was 6 and 7-cent cotton
that hit the farmer. But cheer up,
boys; we can stand anything for we

war came back into the Union. Let
