Don’t you think so? t,
Don’t let the children miss school a
single day. It is often now or never in
getting a schooling, and you cannot af-
ford to have the lack of an education
for your child charged up to your care-
lessness. You are already too deeply
in debt to opportunity to take any
more risks.
There isn’t much danger of the Un-
ions going to the demnitlon bow wows
as some of the alarmists seem to think.
It is a shame that one finds doubht of
the ability of the horny-handed, hard-
headed, big-hatted yoemanry of this
country to manage an organization
that they compose almost absolutely.

Since -the side of the crop doesn’t
depend so much upon the amount of
land Cultivated as it does upon how the
cultivation is done, it seems that ev-
ery one interested in the real weal of
the country would immediately get
■P ; now
on foot to ’’make two blades of grass
<o grow*where only one grew before.’’
Jr you are not prepared to fight the
Mortgage and its concomitant devasta-
/tlng interest, get ready now. The ac-
tual farmers have paid enough to mort-
gagees in Texas to have bought half
\ of the State within the past dozen
\ years. The sack of flour bought under
a crop mortgage will generally cost
just one and a half times as much as
one bought with the almighty green
stuff, and this rule will hold good
through all the thinge you buy that
way.

The following examples of success-
ful farming in some of the Southern
States is taken fro man official docu-
ment Issued by the National Agricul-
tural Department:
“While stock raising is not\at the
present time carried on to a lar£e ex-
tent in the cotton-growing portions of
Louisiana, Arkansas and Northeastern
Texas, there are widely scattered pha-
ses of it.
“Dairying has made gratifying prog-
ress in a good many places; for in-
stance, Hammond, La., once a cotton-
growing center, is now shipping 700
gallons of milk daily to New Orelans.
At Marshall, Tex., one man has run a
successful dairy for three years. In
that time he has built up his herd to
about 75 cows, pure-bred and high-
grade Jerseys, the returns from which
are over |500 a month. The grass re-
ceipts from each cow in a herd of 40
high-grade Jerseys at Lafayette, La.,
for the past year ranged from $180
to $222. The milk in this case is bot-
tled and sold to local customers at 25
to 30 cents per gallon.
“In the matter of beef production,
the Louisiana Experiment Station has
demonstrated that ‘market tappers’ can
be produced for the Chicago market.
The Mississippi Experiment Station
bas produced high-grade two-year-old
feeders at a cost not exceeding $12,
These facts indicate that there are
large possibilities in beef production
in the South.
“In scattered instances horses and
mule colts sell readily at 1 year old
for $40 to $50, at 2 years old for $75
to $100, and at 3 years old for $150 to
$200. There has never been a time in
recent years when good mples did not
bring good prices. Horses are not
usually sold until broken, when they
sell for $100 to $300.
“Angora goats have been found prof-
itable near the northern limit of 1
cotton area, and in rare cases are
be found furthe South. These shot
“Many instances could be given
success with hogs, especially where

used for pasture. In those sectk ?he immigration of Austria-Hun

If a bale of cotton won’t buy as much
meat now as a bale of cotton would
ten years ago, better raise feed crops,
fatten meat and let the old bale of
cotton go to thunder. It breaks backs,
anyhow; and it breaks pockets, and it
keeps the children out of school and
cheats them out of their education.
There’s a whole lot to be said against
a bale of cotton before much can be
said for it /„
PRESIDENT BARRETT D$ TEXAS.
President C. S. Barrett, of the Na-
tional Farmers* Educational and Co-
Operative Union, whose home is in
Atwater, Ga., is on a visit to different
UniQns of the Texas organization. Mr.
Barrett brings the news that his State
is going to fall several thousand bales
|short of its usual cotton crop this year.
Excessive rains, followed by drouths
pf several weeks* duration, rust and
Hie boll weevil have all combined to
make the result disastrous to the
hrmer. Mr. Barrett says, however,
!fjat he believes the loss from last
•r’s yield will not be as much as a
[Ilion bales, the estimate made at
e Texarkana convention last foil.
Mr Barrett says that the growth of
e Georgia State Union Is exceeded
Jy by that of the Texas organizaz-
.n. About four big State rallies or
nventtons, he says, are held each
ar by the State organizations in the
heavor to increase the growth, influ-
be and general usefulness of the
Zon to its members. The next one,
.says, will be held at Atlanta, Ga.,
’pan. 22. Among the list of speak-
a^o address this convention appears
