M N A U A Letter from Williamsburg. jr. Editor: Inasmuch as the methods of preparation and cul tivation of crops in this county differs somewhat from that of Fairfield county, I have concluded to give a brief description of the preparation of land and cultiva tion of crops in vogue in Wil liamsburg county. The land here, generally speaking, is level, and most of the enterprising and pro gressive farmers plant their corn in rows about five feet, wide, and sow about three-fourths of a bushel of peas per acre in their corn when they lay it by, which makes them a quantity of hay. The corn and pea crop is always followed by a cotton crop, pre pared and cultivated as follows: The cotton rows are laid off four feet wide and are almost in variably run across the old corn rows. The cotton land is bedded out with a one-horse turn plow, or a Dixie Boy, as they are gen erally called. Then we take a distributer ard distribute ary where from three to six hundred pounds of fertilizer per acre in the last furrow betweu each bed made by this turn plow. Then we run a twelve-inch sweep in that furrow after the distributer in order that we may get the fer tilizer thoroughly incorporated with the soil. But that is not the rule. Very few go to thE trouble of running a plow behind the distributor. After the fertili zer has been applied. then thE next work is with the Dixie Boy which runs well up on each sidE of the beds, with the wing of thE plow toward the fertilizer. This makes a nice round lap on whici the cotton is planted with a Cm planter, that has a shield in front that knocks the top of the lap off thereby leaving the middle of the row four or five inches higher than the cotton. After the cot tor is up to a good stand, they takE a. twelve-inch wing sweep and run a furrow lightly or shallov on each side of the cotton; ther run the middle out with a six inch shovel plow before the cot ton is chopped out. After this it is then plowed with a wing sweep, so as to leave a middle it it about the first or tenth of June or probably later. Then they take the Dixie Boy and run twc furrows in each middle, with the wing of the plow turned toward the cotton, being careful to have a small ridge in the middle of the row. This plowing is called "Dixie Boying" the cotton. Aftei an interval of a few days they run a wing sweep almost in thE "Dixie Boy" furrow, which is termed scraping it down. Thai leaves about two furrows to the row, which, when plowed out, lays the cotton by. The land here is easily cultivated and produces fairly well. Some of the best sections make a bale or more tc the acre. These people use the Dixie Boy and wing sweep exclu sive of all other plows. I heard a man say not long since that he had never plowed furrow with a wing plow on at iron foot stcock. Labor for farn purposes is rather scarce; a num er of them work at the saw milh and in the woods. A good many of them own their little farms and a grert many rent farms. A great many of the negro renter! and also some of the white rent. eas plow their farms with an ox When they get them an ox, Dixie Boy plow and strike a lien then they are just fixed to butche: somebody's laud, and are no long er available for agricultural pur. poses. if any man wili come tc Williamsburg couty and fail tc realize the iniquities of the lier law, I am frank to say he must be very dull of comprehension. Bui our law-makers permit it t:o re main on the statute books. I: not soon repealed. it is destined to become one of the prime fac tors in the next revolution ii South Carolina politics. There are several men here from Fairfield county. Messrs T. J. Hogan and T. W. Boylt came here about nineteen years ago and bought a half interest it a saw mill, which they have im. proved from time to time, unti they now have a fine mill witl the most improved machinery They cut about 60,000 feet o lumber per day. They also do general mercantile business unde: the firm name of Mallard Lumbei Company. They have bougbl -m.era thouand ae of land I1I()rU ! eatest sale oi this season's oods you have in next tn I Monday, .May i." He ami Light to keep up with our gr quantities. Tihey are Imd kgents for Butterick PaItei G0 H& on which there is about a ten horse farm of very fine laud, on which they make from thirty to thirty-five bushel; corn per acre and a bale or more of cotton. Messrs. T. E. Allen, Samuel Alien, Walter Allen, Frank Allen, W. I. Hogan and I. 13. Hogan came; here within the last few years. Thus you see I am amongst Fair field people. Mr. Editor, scme time aIo I enjoyed reading a letter in The News and Herald written by Cap-: tain D. R. Feaster of Arkansas. I have pleasant recollections of Captain Feaster. He was oue of my teachers and set the first copy I ever wrote. His cheerful dis position has shed a ray of sun shine and gladness on the path way of many. 1 sometimes think we do not fully appreciate such dispositions. We hope many years will yet be spared the cap tain. One more reference in conclu sion. Just fifteen years ago to day the Coleman Masonic Lodge, near Crosby Institute, was dedi cated with most impressive cere monies. Many incidents that have transpired since then are indelibly stamped upon our mind. The reflection cannot be other wisu than melancholy, when we realize that many who were there are now numbered among IThe dead. The once long looked for future will soon be but a short past, and ere long we will have to turn and look back as we vie the mile-post that marks halfway on life's highway. I will clo, for fear vou will think Lae remi niscent. Iremain, with best wishes for Kyour many reade~rs, Yours truly Robt. IR. Jeffares. Greeleyville, S. C., May 10, '05. 1Will Cure Consumption. A.
