FARMERS UNION RESOLUTIONS.
At the late meeting of the lira
zos County Farmers' Union laid
with Steep Hollow local union
tii fQllowinff resolutions were
adopted and the secretary ordered
to have same published in both
county papers:
We your committee on resolu-
tions beg leave to report as follows:
Whereas during tie cotton
season just drawing to a close
there has been a great deal of com
plaint in regard to the mixed pack-
ing of cotton and whereas all
cotton is now ticing sampled on
both sides aud whereas all cotton
ginned on our country gins and
packed on the old kind of presses
will not look the same on account
of the way in which it is put in
the press;
Therefore be it resolved by the I
Brazos County Farmers' Union in
regular meeting at Steep Hollow
Jnnuary 5th 1907 that we do
condemn the mixed packing of
cotton and will expel any member
who will persist in such a practice.
Be it further resolved that we
propose to put up an honest bale
that can Iw sampled anywhere
but we do condemn our buyers for
pronouncing our cotton mixed
packed and grading it by the
ragged sample which is not a dif-
ferent grade of cotton but is caused
by scrapping up of the lint room
as it is customary and unavoidable
at our country gins. Respectfully
submitted.

nothing but a team and a fsw hou-

the eat In a single wagon. Of cotirM
there were no buffalo fur this was It
the lute seventies but their bones
strewed the plains aud these 'tones
were the ouly thing that bad a coin
merelal value and they were utilised.
They were hauled In great wagon
loads to the nearest railway fteo
from alxty to a hundred miles away
and sold. . The borns were the more
valuable and Uiey weut first but the
reft of the skeleton soou followed.
There were no fortunes made by these
early boue hunter for a large load of
buffalo bones brought only from $." lo

ceeds from a load enabled the settler
to buy a little flour coffee and occa-

Here Is the latent parrot story. X
certain retired general of the Indlsn
army poNed a parrot aud ahto a
very Irascible teiiipernuxut. The par-
rut was a valuable bird but was rather
a nuisance by reason of Its extreme
talkativeness. One day while the gen-
eral was writing his bUKlniss letter
the parrot kept up a continual chatter
very dllurblng to the writer. At last
the general could stsnd It no longer
aud. Jumping up be seized the cage of
the unhappy bird which he whirled
vigorously round and round at the
same time shooting furiously. Then
he set the cage down again and si-
lence fur some time ensued. At length
however a teeble voice came from the
Interior of the cage.
