STOP BUYING DAISY MIDDLINGS. {
A Correspondent Urges Farmers To |
Make their Supplies at Home. 
Germanton Route 1, Maroh 25.
Mr. Editor : *
Please allow me a space in your
valuable paper for a few words.
I want to say something in re
gard to the farmers in this section
of the country.
There are nine out of every ten
of the farmers buying flour aud
daisy middlings. Brothers, you
have got to do better than that.
If you don't, another short crop of
tobacco will put you all in the
public works. It used to be that
just a few renters bought such
stuff, but now land holders and all
buy it.
Brother farmers, I know you
can do better by experience. I
have been farming 31 years, and a
renter about 12 years myself. I
have raised a large family of child
ren and am now up in the fifties.
I have bought one sack of daisy
middlings in my life. I have
bought 200 pounds of flopr, may
be, and 200 pounds of bacon. The
year before I was married I
bought two barrels of corn and
paid one dollar a bushel for it. I
made corn enough out of that the
next year for me and my wife and
had some to sell, and have been
making plenty ever since and to
sell. If it comes a wet day the road
is full of wagons going after
"chop," and if they fail that day,
they will keep going till they get
it. They will lose two or three
days going after it, and they
lose time enough to clean up creek
bottoms that would make more
corn than a half dozen sacks of
daisy middlings would be worth.
Farmers, stay at home next wet
spell and clean up briar thickets,
hedges, etc., and next year we will
need no daisy middlings. Next
fall when you cut a barn of tobac
co let your wife cure it and you go
and pull old Bill some fodder. The
tobacco will bring 7 or 8 cents
anyway, and if you don't pull him
some fodder, he will be so poor he
can't shake his tail.
Just think about it, farmer
friend, three or four years back
two or three stores supplied the
neighborhood, and now there are
three to one—all making a living
otf of the farmer, and we could
make our own stutf if we would
try.
I want to say something about
young inen in my neighborhood.
It takes more money to run one of
them than it used to take for me
to ma|fe a crop on. I don't know
what a young girl promise
herself to take one of them for.
All the boys think about is hiring
horses and buggies, and taking
train rides. J know it to be a fact,
for I can see it right at home.
PLOUGH BOY.
DOING "BUSINESS AGAIN.
"When my friends thought I
was about to leave of this world,
on account of indigestion, nerv
ousness and general debility,"
writes A. A. Cbisliolin, Treadwell,
N. Y , and when it looked as if
there was no hope left, I was per
suaded to try Electrid Bitters, and
I rejoice to say that they are cur
ing me. I am now doing business
again as of old, and am still gain
ing daily." Bast tonic medicine
