Cotton, Cotton! Cottonll
1 have now socured the services of an
expert cotton man and also an expert
Weigher, who will assist me in handling
the cotton of the order at UalveBton dur-
ing this season. Ship all cotton to Farmers
Alliance Exchange, Galveston. Texas. We
will advance $üf> per bale ou all cotton con-
signed to us. County business agents and
roauagers of co-operative stores are re-
quested to correspond with me for Infor*
■nation which it is thought best not to pub-
lish, and all are desired to furnish me their
postoflice address, whether they contem-
plate shipping cotton to the Exchange or
not. I will guarantee lull weight and full
classlilctttion, prompt sales and accurate
returns on all cotton received at Galveston,
When you ship, if you desire immediato
sale, notify us in your letter of advice.
We will lollow your instructions to tbe
letter. If this business sull'ers any loss we
are fully determined the fault shall rest
upon the brethren, lor lallure to give us
their business.
Galveston is the only real seaport of
Texas; hence is tho natural cotton market
of the state, and 11' our people will come
together on this ono point and stand by us
we will be lu position in the near luture to
sell directly to the spinner. This will de-
pend entirely upon the volume of business
we do. We need never expect to accom-
plish any great good so long us our mem-
bers continue to divide our business. We
must have unity in our bus iness as well as
socially, before wo will justified in looking
for results of business advantage. The
difference between selling cotton and other
produce to your local buyers and commis-
sion men and consigning to us is this: The
men who are trying to manage your busi-
ness enterprises are doing so lor the ex-
press purposo of securing to the members
who aro its costomors and patrons, full
weight, full prices and correct returns,
while ull others are interested in getting
our products for the least possiblo money.
Now, brethren, this cotton cll'ort will be
just what you make it by your patronage.
Alone I cannot mako it a success; with
your co-operation and patronage I can and
will. Nothing which I can command, no
energy I can put forth shall be wanting to
serve you and protect your interests.
I have made very satisfactory arrange-
ments for our future cotton business. Have
no fet.r that your cotton will be reiused in
cotton bagging. All statements to that
eflect are made solely to mislead you and
so, if possible, prevent the bulking of our
cotton crop at Galveston. Lot us for once
all pull together and mako this effort u
grand success. Fraternally,
S. D. A. Duncan.

We print on this page a letter to the Van

simply beats the rocord lor ¡work done by a

its kind in tho south, and has a mammoth
lactory and salesroom in Dallas.
If you want to buy a farm, or if you
have a farm for sale, we reler you to
Messrs. A. F. ltlrkpatrick & Co., Dallas,
Texas. On this page will be found a list
of farms for sale by them. If you desire to
buy or sell wo can recommend Messrs.

We are In receipt ol complimentary
tickets to the First Annual Fair and Expo-
sition of the Pecan Fair Association which
will open at Brownwood on Tuosday Octo-
ber 1st und close Saturday October Mb. At
tho same time there will be a ro-union ol
ex-confederate solders under the auspices
of Camp Stonewall Jackson. The move-
ment is a commendable one and shows the
spirit of enterprise on tho part of the live

MkrcURY of tho celebrated 1 X L Wind-
mill, The state agent, Mr. A. B. Fowler,
put up an IX L mill on the premises o:
Bro. P. S. Browder, formerly business
manager of The Mkkcuky, and after the
most trying und critical test it hns given
entire satisfaction in every particular.
Bro. Browder is loud in his praise of the
I X L and has no hesitancy whatever In
recommending it to those who want a lirst-
class windmill,
ON October 1st thero will be a deep
water convention held at Topeka, Kansas
Delegates from every state west of the
Mississippi river will be in attendance,
and it is expected stops will be taken by
this representative body that will solve the
deep water question, not only lor Texas,
but for the entire west and northwest.
The board of trade of Topeka respectfully
invite delegates Irom the Allianco in Texas
to attend this convention, and wo hope
some of our leading members will attend.
Wk are in receipt of a complimentary
ticket to tbe Orange Fair to be held lit Mc-
Gregor, Texas, on October 8th, and con.
tinulng until October 14th. In our Issue
of Sept. 0th, we published a list of premf.
urns to be otrercd. in addition to that,
very liberal special premiums will be
awarded, on the whole the initial exhibi-
tion given by our brethren ol the Oranjte
promises to bo a success beyond nieitsnro.
Prominent members o! tho Alliance will
be in attendance und lond their aid in
making the fair an attractive and Interest-
ing one to all. Be sure to attend.
ON another page you will lind a synop-
sis of the report of tho Texas Co-operative
Association, which is the business enter
prise of the Orange. A careful reading ol
the report will convince tho mind of tne
most skeptical that "co-operation surely
eo-oporales." The Rochdale system of co-
operation, which Is the system upou whieh
the T. C. A. operates, hus for years been
the most satisfactory and at tbe. sume time
the most successful of the many co-opera-
tive plans In vogue. The (iruntre is to be
congratulated upon the unqualified suc-
cess of Its business enterprises and wu ex-
tend to them flur best wishes lor contin-
ued success.
Thk representatives of tho leudlng.jour-
nals of Chicago have distributed a circular
cmenatlnK from tbe press committee of the
World's Exposition, requesting an expres-
sion from the newspapers of the country
regarding the location of the World's Ex-
position, to be held in 1802, somewhere be-
tween the rising aud setting sun and tlie
uurora bore ails and the stars aod stripes.
Chicago, according to thin circular, lilis
tho bill, while another circular from New
York seems to lay Chicago In the shade.
As lar as Thk Mekcuky is concerned the
location cannot be too near Dallas.
Therefore Chicago is our choice, but we
will wait until congress convenes; then we
will bee what can be done to inlluoiice the
minds of that elastic body.
One of the most attractive of the many
books compiled and published in the in-
terest of tbe advertisers fn America Is a
neat and elegantly gotten up vuiumo on-
titled "Advertising In America," published
by .1. Walter Thompson, Hi Park How,
.New York. This volume was prepared
solely for distribution at the grest expo-
sition atParis, France, Mr, Thompson bss
evidently made such a close atudy of ad*
vertislug and advertisers, that, bo knows
just about what would fill the bill ol .(are

the lending papers .published In America
showing oxaotly just its stylo aud make-up:
at the bottom of the plate 011 ono page Is an
expiatory noto giving tho main features ot
tho paper, printed in English, while on tho
opposite pago is the sume matter sot I11
French. On the wbole tho volume Is an
exceedingly well gotton up work and wil1
provo h yalu'ablo aid to- those contemplat-
ing advertising to any great extent. One
of tho most important features of the com-
pilation of tbe work is, that only tho most
seloct und representative papers and peri-
ódicas are used, and as Mr. Thompson Is 11
pioneer in the udveftislng business, (he
having been In tho business over twenty-
five years) the value of his experience Is
therefore worth consideration. There are
but two papers In Texas that aro roprc.
sented In the book, und The Mkkcuky Is
one of them. In addition to the book "Ad-
vertising in Amorica," Mr. Thompson has
made up another solectlon of the promt-
lnent and most valuable advertising medi-
ums in Amerlcu, and embodied them In a
book called "Thompson's Mattery," which
Is for advertisers In America. This work
Is certainly an Important one, and will
prove ot value to those In America who
wish to reach the people through tbe ad
verllslug columns o!' the press.
In this ipbuc wilt be found the advertise-
ment of the Star Manufacturing company.
This company manufactures tho celebrated
Star feed mills, which are especially
adapted to the farm, being cheap, durable,
light draft and 11 rapid grinder. Ills the
object und aim of this company to put upon
the market a mill simple in construction,
which can lio operated by any person with-
out getting out of onler. They contain 110
complicated machinery and will do tho
work satisfactorily. It does not require a
steam engine to run It, but any farmer's
team will easily furnish tho power It, will
grind fine or coarso, and as much per hour
as a grt ai many high rato power mills,
which are constantly heating the grain and
their parte, as well as wearing out rupldly.
The mill does not heat the feed or Us parts;
they have a mill which grinds corn shelled
or on the cob, dry or damp, chop feed, oals.
0U1., equally well, and can bo used for ei-
ther, and if you do nor dcolre to tine corn
and cob ground together you nevertheless
have a mill which for grinding shelled corn
and small grain is unsurpassed.
They have the only sweep mill tiir.t will
grind corn, (on the cob or shelled;, oats,
small «rain and chop feed without arty
chango fn tlio burr or grinders, yet, how-
ever, they make two sets of burrn, both lil-
ting the Star mill, one set for rapid grind-
ing of corn and cob, while their fine burrs
will grind corn and cob, yet they will also
grind shelled corn, oois, etc,, equally well,
so that the Star mill, with tho line grinders
In, makes a comploto mill for ail klndi of
work In a first-class manner, yet 111 order
to do all kinds of grinding, fast and slow,
coarse und fine, they recommend bolli sets
of burrs.
The durability of these tullís Is wonder-
ful. Tho manufactures have never yet
bei ti called upon to replace a net of grind-
ars which have worn out. Their capacity
