Headache, Souton sch, Torpid Liver and Chronic Con pation. j Pleasant to axe Pickens Drug Farmers' Union Bureau of Information. ~~~~~~~~. .. .............................................. -Conducted by the South Carolina Farner' Educational and Co Operative Union. CommuniCntions intended for this depart ent should be addressed to J. U. stribiJng, Pendleton, South Carolina, ile for Cotton Is the Bettle Yell of the Fairmers' Union. Over seven hundred thousand white farmers of the South who grow this cotton have braved the storm and spokon aloud this rea sonable and equitable price of 11c for their cotton, and all they have to do to get it is to stand firm. -Nino cents or any other old dirty price is the whining, submissive, subdued croaking song of the un organized, weak kneed, unmanly and cowardly cotton grower that is now seen running about the streets with a bunch of cotton in his hands begging some one to take off his hands this most valua. ble and world-wide commercial product of the soil. Men, do have a little manhood about you and quit acting so silly. Keep your cotton off of the streets, Bulk your cotton in some way and compel the buyers to come to youi agent for your products just ilk( you go to the agent for your farm implements and go to the mer chant for his goods. Eleven cents for cotton now is no more than 6o was 10 years back, considering cost of production. We have hundreds of cotton warehouses now in every cotton State; store your cotton in them, pay your obligations with cotton certificates and bull the bears out of the ring. Better still. wherever it is possi ble, store your cotton in the seed at home. This plan will keep your cotton off the market, make better samples, give you more time to sow fall grain, and the lint will gain enough in weight to pay 20 per cent interest. Our own expe.. rience by actual test proved this to be the fact last season. 7leven cents for oil in the lint is just 11 times better than selling the cot ton seed for one cent per pound. Put your cotton away in the seed and let the lint take up all the oil possible. If your reputation is as good as it should be, you can borrow money on seed cotton stored in isolated safe places about as easy as you can get advances on a grow ing crop. We have heard of some men say ing that their cotton did not cost them very much to make It as they and their own family did all the work. Now, that old fool should be took out to the thicket and warmed up a little until his heart moved away from his stomach to its proper place. Begin now to fight cotton bears next fall by sowin~g down at least half your cotton crop in fall oats. If your cotton rows are 8 1-2 feet drill in only two rows of oats, one on each aide of cotton stalks. Use a six inch plow on your ott~on planter and drill about ona~ ipeshel of pure, clean winter gmrown oats to the acre in betweeni the cotton rows and leave the trench, open. The seed wilu come up and grow all right and not freezeo out if you have the hardy winter growiung ~ariety of seed oats. You may knock eff a few boils of cotton by planting in oats now, buit these bols can be saved just the eni#i.

Have a little talk with your friends in other oc cupations about this matter and let's all work together for the good of all. Now Omcers of the National Farmars' Union. At the annual meeting held at Texarkana the name of the Far mers' Educational and Co..operative Union of America was changed to the simple and shorter name o Farmers' Union." We like the change of name. Charles S. Barrett, of Atwater, Ga., was elected president. J. E, Montgomery, of Tennessee, vice. president, and. R. H. McCullough of Beebe, Arkansas, as secretary. troasurer. This meeting of the Farmers Union at Toxarkana was said to b< "the greatest meeting of farmer which has ever been held 'in thil nation." Hon. R. F. Duckworth. ex-presi, dent of the National Farmors Union, will start the Stato cam paign for organizing the farm er Into the Farmers' Union at Seneca S. C , on Sept. 26th. We urge every-farmer in the State to go oul and bear this grand lecturer as ho comes your way, it will do you good. The plan of putting up five dol lars per bale to take up the weak cotton off the market is a good one Quite a lot of weak cotton has already been taken off the market by Farmers' Union men. But, in order to command the situation, we must act upon an organized plan in a broad way. Another splendid start has been made by the Oklahoma Union to control prices by each farmer mak ing assignment of all his cotton to their State agent to be sold by bim at prices made by the Union. This assignment may be made at the beginning of the year and all necessary arrangements for ad v'an~emienlts can be made to b~ettor advantage for the farmer by the State agent than can be made by each individual farmer acting by himself. The outlook for a grand movement upon a solid plan to control the marketing of our cot ton is very bright, and if all 'will keep selfishness out of it, we will surely succeed in controlling our own affairs. Anderson, B.C.,Sept.jl9, 19)06. Dear Bro.

We found that we had passed the 700;000 mark, and now let us all go to work and pass the one million mark before, this year ends. Bro. Stribling 'South Carolina is coming with 10,000 strong. And we are going to get that 11 cents for our cotton. Just sit still in the boat and you will get what you want, boys. The Farmers' Union will have about 400 cotton. warehouses ready for this crop. Our co-operation don't need a cotton company, we have the cot ton, and are going to keep it for 11 Cens. Say, Bro. Stribling, that green cotton is the cotton to keep, and put the Ulniou trade naark on it, so when the Union mills run they can spin Union cotton. Say, Bro. Stribling, the mills used 12,400,000 bales of cotton last 4 year, and don't they want about 4 16,000,000 this yoar? And we can't 4 supply then by about four or .ive a millions, but you know they will take it all at our price if we will g lot them have it.
