I A FAMENS1,DJCJ~ CO-0O1AT UNION OF AMERICA - Pickens County Union Column J. T. DOGGS, REV. W. C. SBABORN and -JOL MILLER, CoInittee in Charge. I want to say to Farmers' Union men through the Szw 2IZL-JOUWA, that the Man whd ]has been grading our cotton 'Ws limited as to time, and couldn't grade all of it, but It .will be taken care of at the proper time. This is the first time the farm ers have had a man sent by a big cotton-buyer to grade his cotton at home, It is worth something to us to know what kind and grades of cotton we have by an expert grader whose business is to do justice between man and man. I see that the New York Opt ton Exchange sold 200,000 bales of cotton one day last week at 7@8c V lb. I notice that cotton mills are stopping evey day somewhere for the want of cot ton. Why don't these mills go to the cotton exchange and buy some of this cheap cotton? The mills know they cannot spin cotton made on paper. This cotton exchange business re minds me of a chicken rooster that gets off a nest and cackles. Fried or scrambled eggs from that kind of a nest is worth just as much to a hungr~y man's stomach as this cotton bought from these cotton exchanges would be worth to the cotton mills that are out of cotton. I look upon this cotton gam bling, price-fixing business as the most hellish, damnable busN ness that is in the land to-day. Why should that kind of cotton be worth anything? You can, not make anything out of it. It is simply paper and wind; that is all there is of it. These exchange people look upon the cotton-growers in the Southern states as a set of fools. They are trying to make them believe that there is sogne thing behind the throne that is doing the fixing of the prices for them, when it is nothing but a few blood-suckers.. They stand to the price .of cotton like a chinch bug does to the human family--that is, to get his fill out of the other fellow Say, brother farmer, are yoig going to let these blood-suckers fix the price on your wi~es and your children's sweat and toil, and that below productiochl If you do, then you will prove nothing but. cowards. I--det believe you will. L~t us get Ia gether on this end ot fixintg the price.

The following is clipped - from The State, being a part of the speech recently made by Judge Henry Hammond, of Augusta and Beach Island: Judge Hammond Is recognized as an expert on the subject of feeding stock: "When the farmers of the South learn to use more of their cotton products, learn to feed thoir horses and stock with cot ton seed products, it will mean millions of dollars to the South, part of which every farmer will save for himself. No report has ever shown that injury to a horse has been a result of feed ing cotton seed meal. Feed it every day. That's what I do. It is not a hot or a cold climate feed. Feed not less than one pound nor more than three, the amount to be determined by the age, size and work of the ani mal. Not only is it the most nutritious food but it greatly aids the digestion and - general health and good algpearance of the animal. "Feed cotton seed meal with anything ~ you ever hdad of a horse or mule eating-tcorn, whole; corn, cracked; ensilage; bran, etc. Don't stick to any one food; give a variety. -Change as the price changes. It is al ways best to feed ha'rd-working stock ground (not to, fine) feed. Cotton seed meal is fed to best advantage when thorough ly mixed with the other portion of the grain part of the ration. "If .you know what number of pounds of grain'will maintain your saninal, reduce this two pounds for every pound'olineal you feed -him. To illustrat4 this: If you have been, giving him 14 pounds of corn, give biui now only 10 pounds of corn anid 2 pottnds of 'cotton seed mealf He 'till isoon imptjoye and t better wk than evet bqfore.
