DuRant to Succeed Unlamented Crum. Washington, March 8.-Post master Harris, of Charleston, had an audience with the president today on the appoint ment of a collector to succeed W. D. Crum, who has resigned. Mr. Harris was armed with let ters, petitions, documents and zens of Charleston who do not seem to care very much who is appointed collector, so he be a white man. In the conference today E. W. Durant was agreed upon for the place. His nomination will be sent in at the beginning of the special session. This is the first time Mr. Taft has considered the matter of Southern appointments, al though numerous Southern re ferees and Republican bosses have been here trying to see him. The case was thoroughly gone over with Mr Harris. The Southern situation looms large in the new president's interests and when he is relieved of the tremendous crush of visitors and has got the general machin ery of his office moving smooth ly he expects to give it a good deal of attention. He saw a number of South erners today besides Postmastei Harris, including Senator Cul ~beisgn,nhinority leader in the senate,_ hut he is not ready tc make a final decision as to any other important offices yet. The belief here is settled that a white man will be appointed al Savnna. -Zach McGhee. Mr. Edwin W. Durant is one of the officers of the Burton Lumber Co., one of the largesi and most important concerns in Charleston, and he is one of the most prominent men of the city in both social and business circles. Mr. Durant is a native of Michigan and it is stated that he is a graduate of Yale, the aln mater of Presipent Taft. do of Mr. son of Mr. Casper A. Chishlm one of Charleston's most weal. thy citizens. Mrs. Durant is the daughter of Col. William Por cher Miles, at one time president of the University of South Caro lina, shortly afte the war. Col. Miles, after retiring from (k presidency of thE unive~ ~ , re moved to Louisian ~ ere h( engaged extensivel i- in sugai planting. Mr. Durant we it to Charles ton to engage in p 1siness about A James Writes B. D. Garvin Samuel A. James, a formei resident of this county, but whc left here about 1869 for Texas, and who is a resident of St. JOE Texas, has written a long lettei -to his friend, Treasurer B. D. Garvin, asking about the county and the associates of his youth. 4Hiisnow at Anadarko, Okla. hIiere-he is visiting his children 4d greatly enjoying his recrea tion. Below we give his lettei in full, and hope his old com rades will do him a favor by writing to him. Mr. James is a -relative of the late lamented John T. Youngblood, is about 71 years old, and as father time is creeping upon him, his heart yearns, and his thoughts turn to the land of his birth "avd the friends of his youth, anaif any there be who have a fello>feel ing for mankind, for making the declining years of an old comrade happy, they will cer tainly wrIte to him. Anadarko, Okla. Feb. 23d. 1909 Mr. B. D. Garvin, Pickens S. C. Hello, My Dear Friend Ben: Please allow me to again in trude upon your precious time and kindness. Observation teach us that we are once a man and twice a child; and that youth looks forward with hope, while old age looks backward, over the many scenes and pleasant associations of youth, with a craving desire to once again enjoy those happy days, when trouble was unknown but alas, alas with many sad regrets. While I know time has "Call ed from Labor" many of my youthful playmates and associ ates and others have scattered to the four winds of both heaven and earth; yet I ought to have a host of relatives and friends, or their decendents, in Dear Old Pickens, whom I would dearly love to meet. But as I can not, itiwould be a great consolation to hear from them. Especially old school mates and also from any old Comrade of Co. "F." First S. C. Cavalry, who has not yet answered the "Last Roll Call." (And may care a 2 cent postage stamp for me?.) rJhe position you occupy, -tirTy en able you to-tel mne something of hb'efiry boys, Bill, Andrew or Silas, Sam and John Young ~blood, any of the old stock of the James &c. While I have been away from there an ordi nary lifetime, I am yet proud that I was born and raised in Pickens, S. C. I an spending the winter, with. my son, in a town of 3500-composed of peo ple from every state in the Un ion and out, Wh'te, Black, In dian, Mexican, Dagoe, Hobo and Grafters of every political denomination and color, under the sun. All of which, renews my faith and strengthens my pride in the state of my birth. If I was acquainted with the Editor of the "Sentinel-Jour nal," I would ask him to state, in his paper, that I have not forgotton any of my many old friends of Pickens and that I am proud of my native state. Ben, I have no news, good, bad, nor interesting, more than we are all well and hoping this may find you all enjoying alike gra cious blessing &c. Write me when you have time and send me the paper, when you have not, and oblige. Yours truly, S. A. James. [We will publish, with pleas ure, anything Mr. James might care to send to the Sentinel Journal.-EDITOR.] Changed His Mind. Last week we published a no tice from Dr. J. L. Bolt, to the effect that he would leave Pick ens which was read with genu ine regret by his many friends in the town and throughout the surrounding country. He now publishes a card to the effect that he will remain here. This is good news, which will be hailed with delight by his friends and patrons. We are glad to make this statement and are glad that he remains. Dr. B. is the oldesi physician in point of practice ir omr town, having been here foi ver ten years; like Topsy, h< has "kinder gro~wed up" witi: the tow-n and developet w ith the c'ounty; proved himsell a goodl dcoctor and stands well, as a m'an and a physician witla tkhose for whom he has practiced and with whom he has come in contact in a business way. We ask that the people showx their appreciation of his decision by paying him up promptly for it takes money to live here as well as anywhere else, and he needs what is rde him. CKNTRAL Route 3.

Those who use acid and meal haul it home early in the st-ason so that they can mix it, The season for ammoni ated goods commence later, and in fact. is about started now. There is: not much difference in acids; one acid is about as gooi as another. It is all made of phosphate rock, (bone phos phate litre,) crushed and treated with sulphuric acid phosphate and one fertil company turne out about as good quality of this goods as another. The difference in fertilizer is in ammon-; ated goods. Ammoniated goods are made by taking this s inie acid phos phate and mixing it with ammoniateF, blood tankage, nitrate of soda, cotton seed meal, sulphate of ammonia, garl' age. Now; some of these ammoni ates do their work and exhaust more quickly than others and so by prop erly mixing and manipulating our am moniates, we have gotton a fertilizer that will nourish the plant from the time it sprouts, all during the growing season. during the laying-by season and up to the time the plant is ma tured and ready to be gathered. Take for instance nitrate of soda. It acts quickly and exhausts. Cotton seed meal will come in next: it will dis solve and a&ssimilate with the soil be- I fore it becomes a plant food, just as when you plant a grain Qf corn it has to germinate before it comes up. Tanlk age come in next and then blood; which lasts until the crop is matured and ready to be gathered. So by tak. ing the different kinds of ammoniates in the proper proportion, one coming in as one exhausts, we have a fertili zer that will feed and nourish the plant from the time it sprouts until it is ready to be gathered. That is a complete fertilizer and unless it does that it is not a complete fertilizer. It does not matter where you get it, it is not a complete fertilizer unless it feeds and nourishes the plant from the time it sprouts untll the crop is ready to be athered. Theca- arna-r ni every expensive, that is why ammoniated goods cost more than acids. Take sulphate of ammonia; it costs $61 per ton laid down at the factory. We have bought qui~e a lot of this and are using it in fertilizers that will sell for less than $30 per ton, just because we want to make the right kind of goods; goods that will make the crop grow and keep growing and widl make a man take a pride in his crop. Our ammoniated goods used on lands that are prepared and culti. vated, as the farmers in this section usually prepare and cultivate their lands, will get all out of the land that there is in it and a farmer should not be satisfied with making the land do less than that. The trouble about us ing a cheaa fr-rtilizer is just this; by the time you find out it is no account you have lost a crop and you have lost a year's work and the only thing you can do is to wait until next year and try again to fertilize right. Every sample of our goods that has been analyzed at Clemson College ran way above our analysis which shows that we are making the right kind of goods. There is absolutely no adulter ation in the fertilizers we are making. They are made of bone phosphate of lime amnmoniates and nothing else' There is nothing better made. Our goods will feed and nourish the plant from the time it sprouts until it is reidy to be gathered and that is the k of goo~m your land needs; that is the kind of goods your land must have ~4make first clas,. crops. If you want oods of this sort, wa have them and -they are for sale. They are home-uda, ad they are made right; they are dry wel' pulverized and we want you, try them. See our agents.
