C. ; WednesJay, March 15, ? 1899 CHEAP COTTON. A:i.-?i(ic-e i>v Mr if E Bryant pub::sb d 1u tin Charlotte Observer has attracted a great deal of attention. It h?s recciv.tl so much attention be\ cause it proves that at le\-it one firmer has succ-eded in r dsiosr cotton at a cost of 2 97 cents per pound. This farmer is Mr. E. W. Brawlev, and his farm is near Mocresville in North . Carolina. Having made inch a remarkable record, one naturally wants to know who Mr. Brawley U. fie is the son of a successful North Caro.ina farmer, and graduated at the University of North Carolina iu Juue, 1894, with h>nors. ''His aim* and efforts in college were towards pe caring a first-rate English education." lie did not take a coarse in agricul. tare, bmt "he never for ome tave ap the desire of his boyhood. To be a successful farmer was the height of his ambition." Mr. Br&wley, therefore, farms becanse it is bis chosen avocation, and he loves it. This is an important element ig attaining success. "He is a very methodical, partaking worker," aad ^e are, therefore, prepared to accept the statement that "he 1- >3 keeps accurate accounts otmg wura., and that ''his books are as essential to bim as the books of a mannfpcturing concern are to the mill." "He is his own book keeper." Now as to his methods. A* soon as he bays a piece of land, he opens an account with it; charges it with all that goes on it and credits it with all that cornea off of it. In illustration of he* accurate and particular Mr, Srawicy.is in his account? with bis different farms, the 'Observers correspondent mentions a credit of 12- rails ?* Pfr\m Tjr*h?r?h thp IU WUC xauu > rails were taken. Such a methodical - and painstaking farmer as Mr. Brawley appears to be would, of course, hare the edges of every field shaped Unlike most farmer* fer land in a run-down sh he buys cheap and Speaking of one farm nt.says: J1'Three years his farms with him. one in particular a9 ,shed and- cnt in secI hardly knew thai e the other day. The fattened and the gulfilled and the land gin with, th8 gnlliea e fields plowed deep rse plow, and peas r hnndred pounds ol lizerp per acre. Mr. >d of improving land ion: He tabes poor land, sows it in rye, |with 200 poundi ? of guano and a ton of lime. The lime i* pnt on in the winter. In the spring the rye Js turned under. The lime keeps it from souriog. After the rye, cow Dea9 are sown with 400 poundfe ol acid and potash per acre. The peas - are moTred and tke land is sowed in wheat Jaod clover with 200 to 30C pounds of acid and potash." After this Mr. Bravrley finds hi3 land is in good conditian, &na he farther improves it bp rotatiou in crops. His system of rotation is now>onder te?t. "It is a six yesr process." The 4rst year he plantsjcottou, the tecond cot? */*?> n/l rtrimsnn f?l<YPV*r_ nlmtin? the WU *UU V.4W-V.. 7 p o clover when he works the cotton for the last time. The third year he plants orii and cow peas with a heavy spread of stable manure; small grain and red clover the fourth year; red clover the fifth year, followed by wheat and then peas the sixth year. Mr. Braw'ey famishes interesting information as to the way a larmer . 'should procure his fertilizers. He bays the ingredients and mixes them himself. He finds that he saves money. Most farmers pay $18 to 22.50 per ton; ? "Last year Mr. Brawley's fertilizers ?"" ~ cat bim $1,UUS 82 ia;a uown ac llooresville. The. ingredients to make bit guanos ?03t $71139, and freight on the same was $214 43 Besides his cotton seed.meal cost him $72. Hence ths tost per ton was $15.78." He, therefore, saved $3 to $5 per ton by mixing his own fertilizers. FAIRFIELD AT WOFFORD. Fairfield boys are' generally in the lead in our colleges. Elsewhere oor correspondent at Ciemson reports I what is being done there by F-iirfieid boys. In the Janaary number of the L Wofiord College Journal, we note I that the Fairfield's reputation is sns& taiued in that institution. Speaking K of ths public debate on the query: B "Resolved, Is the acquisition of ne n territory the best policy for the United Statess," the Journal eays: Mr. Hall opened the debate with a strong argument. He proceeded to break down any argument that might iw* o/^TTot-i/toH ?-kti tJnA nf th? Mod uv au f wuwu vu www ? ?, _ roe Doctrine, then he pointed oat ihe many material advantages that would necessarily follow the policy of expansion. He stressed the advantages to be derived by the acquirement of coaling stations, the commercial benefits, the military improvements and conveniences, and other advantages lie said that Spain had proven to be incapable of governing the Phillippines, Cuba and Puerto Rico, and that ^ it was tbe duty of the United State* . to annex these colonies, and to develop their abundant rt-sonrces. Mr. Hail presented in sbort words sound points, and spoke with eat-e, and ?omu degree of conviction. We also notice that Mr. Hall was - elected a flelecate to a recent Convention of the Y. M? C. A?, and that he ' v. ' jfe. - V -.-.V - ? . r -?"-*-?? ?-? I attended the Thirteenth Bieauial Con-: clave of the ?apjp& Siguia fraternity j in Chattanooga. Mr. lUll is also! Vice-President of the Presion Societv,; and alternate to represent WclFoid ar! the State inter-college oratorical con- \ test to be held at Dne West ou the j m 1 .J A --n - isi Ui CREED! EEPCBLICAXS. It is not often that we read the Con- j gressional Record, not became it is; not interesting but because it takes too i much time to wade through the long j speeches. We happened to pick up j one the other day, and soon found our-! selves interested in a speech delivered ! by the Hon. Champ. Clark, member of! the House from the State of Missouri, j It is a little partisan, bnt he Is so ; happy in confusing- the Republican 5 side of the House that his arraignment | j and criticisms of the Republican party j j are exceedingly entercaioing. The > j speech would make good campaign j literature in 1900. I j The bill for the reorganization of the j I armr was ud for consideration and | Mr. Clark began: Mr. Chairman: Amid the epidemic of hysteria prevailing I jr*ve ! little hop* that a man who i? not afflict-,! ed with that disease can have a xair i and patient hearing. Th* other a*7 j my eloqnent, handsome, and exuberant friend from Iowa (Mr. Dolliver) 'referred to me as having declared '.hat "We took the Republican party bv the ap --c AWA if info FCrUU Ui IUQUCU& auu uoi^vu .. the Spanish war.'' The gentleman from Ca'ifornia (Mr. Lnud) referred to the s*une thing;, but did not kbow whether it was in the Record or not. It is there. I beg leave to assure hi no that, like tbe flig of oar country, it is still there I repeat it now, Mr. Chairman, and | history will confirm the statement, that the Democrats and Populists in this Honse took the Repnblicau party by the scrtifi of its neck and dragged it into the Spanish war; a^d I intend to put in the Record the facts that will grove it. The clifference'is this: We ragged you into a war to free a neighboring people struggling bravely for liberty; you are dragging ns into a war to enslave a distaut people who are also struggling bravely for liberty. f A nnlanco 1 L?.pp4WU^V'j Yoar reluctance in patriotism then, your hoggishness jn ;rv,jng t0 monopolize its honors and glories now, reminds me of a Poland /'bina suw tt.at my father used to tell rac about whan I was a chil^r wbicii -,va* so bashful they had to pail her ears ff to 26'. h<r to the trough, and so greedy the* had to puli her tail off :o set her awav from it. [Loud. langh:e? ] Mr. Ciark the makes a running Historical statement of how the Repnbiicans and Democrats voted prior to <he Spanish war oa different rosoiutio:-<s, , relating to the -Woans ~UiU!.71 that he intended to take t he Rep..oh-j cans "by the scruff ot the neck and J drag" them t5to the oar 01 msiury aa trembling calprits and show, step by 1 step, the whole condact of the Democratic party, which was gloriona, and I that of the Republican party, which ' wa9 ignominions, in the performances 1 leading up to-the Spanish war." He th3n reviews how the Repabli1 cans periistently voted against everything looking towards the recognition > of the belligerent rights of the Cubans. 1 E? shows how the same organized "a kickers caucus" and forced the administration to 'do something with > the Cnban question.

Havana, Cuba, March 4, '99.?Wii: you ploa-e Uilow me ?paceiu voui column on ihe subject of musterii;^ tu tUe Se<:oud South Carolina Reg:ment. I have been reading some of ihe South Carolina papers in regard to foe mustering out of the Second South Carolina Regiment. Some people in South Carolina seem very much annoyed at the probability of our being citizens of our own beloved country ig*in. I tbiok if they will look at our ? ? fnrrr m!nntp? -1Q6 01 lilU (JUCkUUU a isn u4.m?.v. the- will see how sickening such communications -.ppear to us. There are rwe coramu lications in particalar which took my attention. One appeared in ihe Conntv Record, Williamsburg X?w I don't want ihe gnd people of Fairfield County to <hink I am trying to intrude on them.

The insinaa*i;^? wn> this, ihey say we are called "aft<" '.he war recruits." He says we ea-'V^d when we knew we would not r.nvc to fight. The inference i* that 'V?. *re here for t'r.e money orof nnf rvf fhe iob and not for the "w Dv' " "T. J ? sake or the <-8g on the pole. That I rtn pafaly t-ny is false to the highest estem iu regard to the First Battalion, and also in regard to the of .ter two battalions. 1 for one regard it very uDpatiiotic !U anyone At home to thus stigmatize m as cowards. Virtually says we h ivo tot yet done enough ;j prove tar patriotism. Well, I fhonld like :o know what be would have us do. It is true we have not had to shoot down any of the poor Cubans yet, but if we had been called npon to do eo ? don't think that a single man in the Second Regiment would have showed the white feather. They r.re not rhat sort of stock. Those ! I of the First battalion enlisted tor the h vraracdfor nothing else and wben it v ! was over th~ wished to return home.
