NUMBER 9. Farmers' Duty to Tlicms!vc.. Farming never will be as prof itable as it ij made out to be until farmers begin to realize their importance as citizens and begin to use the power they really have, not only in the markets of the world, but in halls of legisla tion. "Trust to luck" policy has kept them down these ages, and Avill continue to do it until they begin to show themselves men in the land men worthy of their high calling. They work harder than any other class and produce wonderfdlly, but Avhen their pro duce goes to market, they are at the mercy of whom it may please to rob them. Where is the farm er who was ever .known to have a voice in the price of their pro duce? The manufacturer puts his price on his products, the merchant puts his price on his goods, and both put their price on transportation, or, what is the same, they dictate to public car riers what they will pay for freight, and their voice is heard, but the farmer has no voice in anything that interests hiin. Other classes of men can have but the miist years to get through the simplest for their protection. Why is this ? I think it is because they are not united. With neighbor hood clubs, county and State so cieties and some newspapaper though which they could commu nicate, this would soon be chang ed; and then and not until then can farmers hope for anything like fair treatment in this age of sharps and sharpers. North Car olina farmers particularly need a central organ in reach of their 1 ' . homes through which they can A . j talk in plain words to each oth neloii is er Tj ueefl societies ail(i dubs in which to meet aud discuss, not only how to farm, but ques tions of markets, trasnportation, and laws, and they need never hope for much change in their condition until they have these. Home and Farm. Gunni Against Typhoid Fever. We believe that any good phy sicia.n will bear us out in the statement that ninetv-nine out of every hundred cases of typhoid fever are due to some removable cause. It is dependent upon filth, bad drainage, impure air and impure water. Men can no more reap good health from these con ditions than they can gather grapes of thorns or figs of this tles. It is not typhoid fever alone but a great train of dis eases that follow in the wake of bad sanitary conditions. The majority of the acute diseases to which flesh is heir are preventa ble. How important, then, that attention be given, at lest in hot weather, to the laws of sanita tion. All fecal matter should in particuler be coveared up or dis posed of ; left exposed to the fierce rays of the sun it breeds pestilence and death. No ani mal or vegetable matter should be allowed to lie and decay in the sun. All foul oders, from -whatever cause arising, should be traced to their source and the cause removed. Wells should be cleaned out frequently and the water kept sweet and pure. When all these things are done, when people have taken the ordinary precautions for the preservation of health, the sun may beam down never so fiercely and the atmosphere be never so still ; we may suffer from heat, we may undergo considerable personal discomfort, but there is not much occasion to fear disease.
