THURSDAY, APRIL 15, 1909 The Monument Fund One dollar has gone from Pickens county to the fund for the monument to commemorate the devotion of the southern woman to the cause of the con federacv. This should be the first of one thousand. One hun ded would be a good propor tion and answer the demiand. One million dollars could not pay the debt of gratitude due to 4he women of this territory who wrought, suffered and sorrowed from privation, death and de feat, then from the wreck and ruin of all but the goodness of woman she turned to give her hand, her heart, her life and in spiration to the work of redemp tion that is enough to glorify any people. Her devotion, her self sacrifice, her patriotism has been woven into the fiber of our southern life and won the great er battle of seventy six. Dur ing the dark days of the war she took care of the lambs in the wilderness, lived on sweet potatoes, drank rye coffee and knit socks for the soldiers. Such devotion shall lend luster toevery page of history upon which it is written. Let us give back to the poor debt-burdened State the sum to which she tied a string, and from the current gold of love we'il forge the chain to link the future to the past, and let the children hear, when they ask the reason why, that "Spartan mothers loved their sons, but loved their liberty the most." The LaJffleR's Moveffeit The Laymen's Movement mi crobe seems to be getting into the muscles of the church mem bers. A more elegant rhetorical figure might have been framed if we had had time to wander through the wilderness of our intellectual jungle, but it would not have been any better under stood by the crowd we are talk ing to. Inertia is the only im pedim ent to phyical progress. Steam applied to the locomotive has proved the most effectual means for overcoming that. A careful and conservative engi neer has: said there is enough power wasted in the flow of our mountain streams to the ocean to turn every spindle and car wheel in the state. It just needs to be caught and guided to the proper point. Just think of the unused wealth, tact and talent the laymen's movement is about to harness and hitch to the work of the church. Great good has already been accomplished. It seems to be a united effort lubri cated with some peculiar oil that does away with denominational friction. Denominational rust has used up and1 absorbed enough christian force to endow every orphanage in the state. There is no guessing, and it makes no difference, how much the frater nal organizations have contrib uted to this movement. Pour ail the good into one channel, so ail the creeds can sail their craft on the swelling tide of love to God and man and drift into that sea whose waves shall hear His voice when he says: "Pea':e, he0 still.

S "My people do not consider. The ox knoweth his owner, and t the ass his masters crib." The people of Pickens county ought to know as much as the ox and the ass, if they send west for mules and corn. Don't plant corn or raise hay this year. Home raised corn will t] cost about 15 or 20 cents a bush- d el and store corn will cost a dol- d lar and the railroad needs the freight. $40,000 will be saved to the people of the county this year on flour.

Our ex- 3 cessively low average yields are a nt necessary. Commissioner r Watson tells how the average n yield of corn per acre in South o Carolina has been nearly doub kd in two years. Isn't that t simple statement full of hope j and promise to every southern farmer? It seems to us that ev ery South Carolinian who has helped to bring about that in creased yield should be able to look the world in the face with a calm assurance that he has done at least one worthy thing; and that every one who did not help should set out this year with a firm determination to do his part in the good work. Let us buckle down to the task each :ne of us in his place and at his particular work, and to make this the best year that the South zrn farmers have ever known.

Atty. -Is To Ili FarMers a- We want to talk to vou a little now about our amnoniated fertilizers. The acid and :roal season is about over. r. Those who .,- acid and meal haul it home early in the scason so that they can mix it, The season for anmoni ated goods commence later, and in he ft. is abont started now. There is no t much <difference in acids; one acid r is about as guo as another. It is all ri- miade of phosphiate- rock, (bone phos piate lime.) crusied and treated with sulphuric acid phosphate and one fertil izer company turns out about as good quality of this goods as another. The difference in fertiliz.r is in ammoni ated goods. Ammoniated goods are made by taking this same acid phos phate and mixing it with ammoniates, iv blood tankage, nitrate of soda, cotton J seed meal, sildphate of ammonia, garb age. Now: some of these ammoni ates do their work anl exhaust more quickly than others and so by prop 1- erly mixing and manpulating our am noniates. we have getton a fertilizr that will nourish the plant from the I time it sprouts. all during the growing season. during the laying-by season and up to the ti me the plant is ma tired and ready to be gathered. Take for instance nitrate of soda. It acts quickly and exhausts. Cotton seed e ncal will comlie in next: it will dis solve and assimilate with the soil be fore it becomes a plant food, just as s. wh-n you plant a grain of corn it has to germinate before it conies up. Tank age cone in next and then blood; which lasts uinti 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 timne it sprouts until it y is ready to be gathered. That is a or complete fertilizer and unless it does t that it is not a complete fertilizer. s, It does not matter where you get it, .y it is not a complete fertilizer unless V- it feeds and nourishes the plant from 0- the time it sprouts untIl the crop is ready to he gathered. These ammo mates are very expensive. that is why ammoniated goods cost more than 30 acids. Take sulphate of ammonia; it costs p6l i.r ton laid down at the ~actory. We have bought quite a lot ,11 of this and are using it in fertilizers that will sell for lezs than $30 per ton, just Lccaus, we want to make the l right kinI of goods; goods that will make the crop grow and keep growing ll anl w%-ill make a man take a pride in his crop. Our inimoniated goods used on lands that are prepared and culti a vated. aLs tihe farmers in this section s, usually preparfe and cultivate their ylands, witll get all out of the land that there is in it and a farmer should not DL be satisli'd with making the lar d do td less than that.

Every sample of our goods that has been analyzed at Clemson College ran way above our analysis which shows Sthatc we are making the right kind of goods.
