One Cent Postage Soon.

Efficiency in the post office de.
partment with a proper readjust.
ment of rates will permit the
government to inaugurate one
cent letter rate within the next
year, according to Postmaster
General Albert S. Burleson.
This emphatic statement was
made by the postmaster general
before the National Association
of postmasters of the United
States July, 1916, and indicates
that this important reform is
much nearer realization than
most people believe and that
next winter will see radical steps
taken toward this end.
In addressing the pOstmasters
General Burleson declared that
they are giving the best postal
service in the world today, and
that is what the American farmer
and business man are entitled to,
for they pay for it. He advised
the postmaste to spare no eX-
peIlse that means greater etfi'
cheney. He says:
THE, fact that this year we
have surplus of between S4, ,OOO,.
600 and S.. 100000 demonstrates
that at last the postal service is
on strong business and self
supporting basis. If we can
keep down useless extravaganza,
we can soon inauguratt one cent
postage in this country"

ONLY FOR A PURPOSE.

The emancipation of the negro
was a noble act, and no nobler
|, man ever lived than the great
emancipator, Abraham Lincoln,
yet the party of which he repre-
sented at his time is not in any
way following out the great work
laid down by him. 1t has now
gotten down to big business and
special privileges. The negro
race is fast becoming enlight'
ened to the purpose that the
Republican party has for them.
If they are entitled to Il vote in
selecting the party candidates,
under the party's last platform
it seems they are entitled to all
it's privileg es: Equal rights to
all without regard to color or
race" If that is or was their
platform, let them carry it out to
the letter-oh, well. they don't
do it anyway.
We give below a few para.
graphs to substantiate the wo rds
of the Herald.
The Sunday Republic in long
article about the big Hughes
boom that was launched few
nights ago says:
-Four hundred Republicans have
been named on the Reception Com
mittee. In the list all negro leaders
have been excluded. 1t is planned to
have several thousand reserved seats
in The Coliseum for the white voters ;
Negroes will be admitted to the gal

Good Cotton Prices.

The present crop season mas
been extremely unfavorable in a
large protion of our territory,
due to excessively high tenpera-
ures and low rainfalls. In some
sections crops are poorer than
they have been for number of
years past; and farmers are
greatly discouraged on this ac.
count. Nothing can be done now
to aid the crops that are suffer.
ing so severely, and time spent
in bemoaning conditions is merely
wasted. Attention should rather
be directed toward preparation
for the coming crop season.
For several years the Herald
has been talking presistently
that the farmers of the country
should diversity their crops
more. Not plant just one kind
of crop and after that crop is
harvested, lay around in idleness.
Some plant nothing but cotton
even buy corn to feed the teams
in making the cotton crop; while
others are vice versa. This
year, cotton, which is the main
crop, will no doubt go ata record
price, some predicting that 20
cents to % cents will be paid in
lint. But these one crop farmers
do not take into consideration
just how much flour at SO per
barrel that cotton crop will pur-
chase.
Years gone by, the farmers
raised corn for their bread. wool
for their clothing, hogs for their
winters meat, fruits and vcgeta
bles for preserves and jellies-
trying in every way to be self
sustaining. The farmer is al
most the only person on earth
that is almost independent-yet
he does not seem to know it.
Some of them bring their hogs
and cattle to market and sell, and
wien summer comes they go
to the store and buy that same
meat back at treble price.
Really, are we going backward?
Prices the coming year for the
farmer and others are going to
be higher than years ago. Re
ports from the Eastern markets
gives evidence of the fact. Buy.
ers are putting in as large stocks
as their finances will permit
Several lines of goods are almost
impossible to procure, and if at
all at enormous prices. The
European war shows no signs of
a close within the next twelve
months. There is more money
in the banks of this country than
ever in history. and the general
conditions are prosperous. With
foreign nations at war spending
their millions in this country,
and the heavy demand on us for
supplies of all kinds, there is no
reason but that we are having
high prices.
With these facts before the
farmers, who are the back bone
of the country, they should plan
now to start preparation for next
seasons crop in diversified way
Just as soon as sufficient rain
falls as will permit them to do so.
The experience of this year
shows, as it has in the past, that
soil moisture is generally the
limiting factor in crop produc
tion in the area where rainfall is
light and variable. 1t has also
shown that seasonable and pro.
per seed bed preparation, fol
lowed by good cultivation, will
conserve sufficient moisture to
insure crops TO withstand great
deal more hot, dry weather than
where Indifferent methods of
preparation are practiced.

he had to rush the bleacher seats to
find a man to ill in. He drew a big
hick, who said he couldn't play, but for
the fun could fill in. There were two
out at the time and the fans were ex-
cited.
Our hero, the hick, came to bat. He
drew three balls and the next one
across he picked over the left field
