Be it resolved, by the farmers
and truck growers of this com-
munity, in mass meeting assem-
bled, that we think said mer-
chants should desist from enga-
ging in that of farming and to-
mato growing, then we have no
complaint to make.
5th. That the merchant shares
with the farmer whatever meas-
ure of prosperity the latter en-
joys, for the reason that the far-
mer always buys more goods
when he has the money with
which to pay for same, the result
of which is to increase the vol-
ume of the merchant’s business
and make it more profitable.
6th. That we concede the mer-
chant a legal right, as much as
any one, to grow tomatoes if he
so desires, yet we maintain, for
the reasons above stated, that he
has not a moral right to do so, to
the injury of those men whom he
depends to buy his goods and
sustain his business.

lowing reasons, viz:
1st. That it is well known that
the price which can be realized
for tomatoes is goverened by the
supply which is thrown upon
the markets. Therefore, for the
merchants to engage in the pro-
duction of tomatoes, and espec-
ially upon a large scale (which
we understand some contem-
plate), will increase the volume
of this product upon the markets,
result in reduced, if not unprof-
itable, prices, thereby placing
the merchants in competition
with the farmers, to the finan-
cial injury of the latter.
2nd. That should the merchant
engage in growing tomatoes for
market, he could not give same
his personal attention, but would
necessarily be compelled to de-
pend upon hired and disinterest-
ed labor to grow and prepare his
tomatoes for shipment, which

system usuallyresuits in placing
upon the markets an inferior
quality of tomatoes, and this
would injure the reputation we
have already established in the
markets for first class packing
and high quality of goods.
3rd. That our vocation is farm-
ing, and we have our capital in
vested in farm land, implements
stock and such things as are
necessary to prosecute a farming
business; whereas, the merchant
is engaged in the merchantile
business, and this is his vocation;
and that should tomato growing
cease to be profitable on account
of over production and. conse-
quently glutted markets, he
could abandon it at once and pro-
ceed with his merchantile busi-
ness (tomato growing being only
a side issue with him), while we,
being permanently engaged in
farming fora livelihood, as afore-
said, must, by experimenting,
either ascertain some other pro-
duct which we may be able to
grow ata profit, or else go back
to the unprofitable production of
cotton.

desire to discontinue his occupa-

Farmers’ Mass Meeting.
Dialville, Tex., Aug. 12, 1901.
At a general mass meeting of
the farmers and truck growers
at Dialville yesterday, the follow-
ing resolutions were adopted,
and the secretary of the meeting
was instructed to hand same to
local papers to be published.
Inasmuch as it is currently re-
ported that it is the intention of
a number of our local merchants
to engage in growing tomatoes
From Gent.
Col. Ezell and family got back
Saturday evening. They have
been visiting friends and rela-
tives at Elkhart and Palestine.
The Col. says the weather is hot
over there.
I would advise Charley not to
ask Mr. Alb so many questions.
The ice cream supper at Dr.
Smith’s was quite a success.
Prof. Quick has gone out west
to visit relatives. The Prof,
says he is “quick” but the girls
say he is slow, and I guess they
know. I hope he will have a
pleasant trip.
Mr. Phil. Ezell and family
spent Saturday and Sunday
with relatives on the mountains.
I do not think it is fare for old
married men to shoot cows and
then lay it on the boys, and I
know Royal is of the same
opinion. Reader.
Texas Must Manufacture.
Manufactures are a source of
wealth. The east has grown
rich by supplying the west with
manufactured products.
Skilled labor is very much in
evidence in the north and east
and command good wages.
Skilled labor is a product of in-
dustrial schools and factories.
These hats are new and up-to-date hats. Some of
them are worth as high as $2.75.

With a population of over
three million souls, Texas manu-
factures practically nothing, not
even shoes for its people, al-
though in 1900 over seven mil-
lion head of cattle were on the
tax rolls, and Texas shipped
thousands of car loads into
adjoining states.
A proper condition of prosper-
ity cannot be attained where 1
community sells the raw and
purchases continually the fin-
ished product. The balance of
profit is always with the other
side. Community of interest is
capable of erecting factories.
Co-operation of effort and of
capital will accomplish wonders.
Texas must manufacture. The
present conditions fully justify
the assertion, and as localities
learn that wealth is closely
allied to manufacturing by reas-
on of added population and
permanency of wages there will
come the needed joining of hands
and enterprise, and the state will
gradually rise from its present
position of dependence upon the
