In my correspondence to The iMRobesonian (the best semi-week ly pp.per in the State) I like to write about the best thing; and the best thing and the thing that 's doing our county the most good, besides the church, is the Farmers' Union. I am sure you who have already joined never joined a better thing since you joined the church. Well, you may say education is doing our country more good; but if you did not know it, education and more of it is one of the many great aims of the Union. I'm afraid I'll do the Union an in justice by not saying anything good enough about it. 1 am glad to know that the farmer the heart of the world, for without heart man is no good and with out the farmer the world is no good is beginning to see how things are and how they could be, also. The Union is very young in North Carolina, but any man that could tell a coon from a 'possum can see good that it has i -i j i o uone aireauy anu is uumg. oun no use to tell what it's going to do. But if 1 ran a tarm orii a ! farm ran me, I would join the F. i E. and C. U. of A. if 1 had to r - plow an ox and use potato vines for lines. Some few say they are too poor to keep the member ship fees paid up. Well, I would not keeu an old hen that would not lav SI. 00 worth of eggs in a vear and if you join the Union your hens will lay more eggs anyhow. Then I know a few men who say Mr. bwanson is just fooling the people. 1 hope no one will believe such stuff, for ''where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise," and the man that would talk such staff would .i . i not know a goou tr.mg m tne daytime. ri hen some say farmers won't stick. Suppose they all sav that? A man like that does more harm than good and he ought to be stuck in a tar barrel and made to stick. Every good thing has "pullbacks," and he is the "pullback" of the best thing he ever will pull back. He'll stick, but it's to the old-time way of being run over and step ped on; for some men have been done that way till they think the world could not go higher with out they remain in the mud. But we have plenty without him.The farmer has what the world has to have and then he is looked on as being the remnants. The time is near at hand when a farmer can hold his products in one hand and the prices in the other. The farmers' sun is already shining and is going to shine very bright in the time to come. The Union ; is growing faster than any other ! secret order ever did and there's something in store for the old fellow if he'll only keep going up and it will be Happy Joe and "Happy Sal" when the top reached. The Farmers' Union is not the biggest thing, although it s very large and the best; the latest I style of ladies' hats is the big- ! gest thing. If you hear a man i say he saw the preacher you mav i rest sure one of those top pieces I was not between him and the j preacher. Some of them would ; make tine air ships, with the ! proper attachments. : Mr. Tom Britt killed a rattle ' snake near here Friday with 8 I rattles and one button. It was 1 5 feet long. i Messrs. Orion Martin and Tiil- i man Britt were somewhat f right -; ened one night recently while go ; ing through the woods. Some i thing looking like a dog lumped j into the buggy with them and jumped out at once. The cotton raisers all wear a smile. Messrs. Thad. Stone, Grover Britt, John Stone and OrionMar t.n went to Kingsdale Saturday on business. Mr. Rowland Stone spent Sat urday in Lumberton. Messrs. John J.
