Page 2 PRES. NUNN WRITES; ABOUT THE FARMERS' UNION j The First of a Series of Letters Promised the Reporter —Calls Oo Members To Stand By Orfani- j zatioo. Westfield, N. C., Jan. 24. j Mr. Editor : With this issue of the Repor- j ter I will commence the series of j letters I promised your paper. I am just back from a trip! through Rockingham county, in the interest of the Farmers' Union. The Union is growing fast down there, and we have had the pleasure of initiating some of the county's best farm ers. We held a good meeting in Winston-Salem 13th. Fifteen or twenty tobacco counties were represented there, and if the members of the organization will carry out the resolution adopted at that meeting we will be able to handle the entire 1911 crop of tobacco grown in this state. Are | we going to do it? It remains to j be seen, but I believe that we j are going to stand together bet- j ter than ever before. The bright-1 est future awaits the farmers of i the tobacco counties that they have ever faced. With Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio and West Virginia all standing together and de-j claring for a pool of tobacco in j 1911 and North Carolina andj Virginia coming together with. one grand understanding about, pooling, handling, grading and pricing our tobacco. I can't see why any union man should get discouraged, and then again we have at last solved the fertilizer « I I Scrofula disfigures and I causes life-long misery.

COMPANY 2 X WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. X | question that has bothered us so j long and taken up so much time !in our county meetings. All the ! locals in my section are making arrangements to pay cash for fertilizer and home supplies this spring. Just how it is done can j not be told in print, but if any ; local wants to know how and ; will write me, enclostng a self addressed, stamped envelope we | will write you giving you full I details by return mail. Our members at Brown Mtn. J are paying up fast, and we will soon have a strong lodge there again. Now, Mr. President of each local in Stokes, we want you to please get busy and see if you can't get each one of your mem bers to pay up his dues and get in good standing with the local again. Jf every President and Treasurer of each local in the county would make a special effort to get each member out and pay up his back dues and also for this year in advance, we feel assured that we would j indeed have the strongest and best organized county in the ' state. Will you do this? Have a box supper, get up an | entertainment, get a man from some other section to make a speech for you, have regular subjects to discuss in your locals and it won't be long until we j will have twice as many members ;as we have now. I know that l in most of the locals that all or | # I most all of the members are in j I good standing, but there are a few Presidents that are letting j their locals drag along any old way, and it is to these that this part of my letter is dictated We are on the eve of succces, are we going to continue the struggle until victory is ours, or | will we sit still and expect the j I other fellow to do our work for j ; us. If we do not work in union 1 I Iwe need never expect to gain j our ends, but if each man will do his duty and help to pull, work j and lift the day will come when :we can say, we have fought a ; good fight, we have kept the | faith and the victory is at last ours. Think what a blessing that will mean to our children and our children's children. It will mean there is coming a day when our children will be free from that ignorance that is a j curse to us. It will mean that they will be free from the galling yoke of financial tyrants, and I will be able to think and act for ! themselves. It will mean that they will be free from those human favorites, known as the j middle men, who are non-produc- THE DANBURY REPORTER ers yet get more for their work than the ones that produce. But before our organization is a complete success we must live at home, and use our own home supplies. Let each union mem ber resolve that he will reduce his acreage in tobacco this year and will increase his acreage in corn. We call ourselves farmers and then can't raise enough on our farms to supply our wants each year. We ought feel ashamed and we are beginning to feel that way too, so lets resolve we will turn over a new leaf this year. Fertilizer time is now upon us again. What are you going to use this year? Are you going to continue to buy that 8-2-2 with its rock, dirt and sand, or are you going to be wise this year and buy the chemicals and mix your own fertilizer? Mix it by all means. I have talked with many men «n this subject, who have been using nothing but chemicals and they are getting good results, and why not us? My next letter will be on what I have seen in my traveling in North Carolina. I will describe my visit to Mr. A. L. French's and what I saw there. The editor of the Reporter says that if the brethren of the coun ty will write articles pertaining jto the orgaization for the Re- I porter that he will give us one or more pages for our special 1 use, so now come on brethren 1 and let's write something. Write ' # I and tell how your local is getting ! along, what you are doing to ! build it up, how many members ! you have and anything that will be of interest to our mem bers, and above all don't let that local drag. Yours fraternally, R. L. NUNN. A SPLENEID TONIC. Cora, Ky.— Mrs. Iva Moore, of this place, says, "I was so weak, I could hardly walk. I tried Cardui, and was greatly relieved. It is a splendid tonic. I have xecomended Cardui to many friends, who tried it with good results." Testimony like this comes unsolicited, from thousands of earnest women, who have been benefited by the timely use of that successful tonic medicine, Cardui. Purely vegetable, mild, but reliable. Cardui well merits its high place in the esteem of those who have tried it. It relieves women's pains, and strengthens weak women. It is certainly worth a trial. Your druggist sells Car dui.
