COMMUNICATED.

NIX. EDITOR.-
The farmer is now facing a hard
proposition and within another year
the leaders Of the Government and
State of Tennessee will realize the
fact, provided it is in other counties
as it is in Henderson. Even after
all our boys are called to the front,
we will have enough people in our
county to tend the land if there
can be some kind of a stop put to
these moving and quitting people
Now by the moving and quitting
people, | mean those who make a
crop on the halves, third and fourth,
or hire; those who start crop and
leave it. If this kind of people
can't be stopped in some way, there
is going to be lots of land minus a
crop. Under the present laws a
man is afraid to make contract
with them. He knows he will have
to stand back of them until the
crop is made and gathered and for
the first few weeks we will have to
furnish them with more than their
labor is worth Now some fellow
that hasn't experienced all this will
say Just pay them for what they
do and no more" If that is all you
do, they 90 over and try the other
fellow. The next fellow will say
have it understood that one farm
er is not to have anything to do
with the other farmers men," Then
when you try that your man goes
to town, gets him a little shack
and goes to work for the public.
You see these plans don't work very
well. If you town people would on
ly close the doors of those shacks
and tell those men that their help
IS needed in the crop, | think that
would help some. Let US take the
COY that works for wages. About
the first thing he wants is new
suit and before he gets it paid for
ne goes to another county to pick
strawberries. So far we have not
had so very much trouble along
this line, but the farmer who has
more land than he can tend him.
self will admit these are facts. I
wouldn't have a man or a boy
working with me that was not
satisfied if | could possibly do any
other way.
This is one year that every farm
er is going to have to stick to his
job. He will have no time to fool
away. You can buy all the farm
ing tools you need but it takes ell
bow grease to make a crop. 1t
takes from sun up until sun down
and not eight hours a day. You
just watch the farmer that works
eight hours day in his crop, you
will see he will come up with a
mighty short crop.
Now, most any man can see that
the farmer needs protection.
Last Monday the speaker told us,
we could nc longer sell our chick
ems, so / guess we will have TO use
our knives and forks on corn bread
and what few frying size chickens
we have. Then it won't be long
until you can sleep on a feather
bed most anywhere you 60.
