What "M" Sees and Hears on His F
Rounds About the City and Along
Route No. 3. bl
Miss Mary Dul're accompauied by her
nelce Miss Fannie DuPre left last Monday < '
for NValhalla where they will spend some "
time with relatives.
Mrs. Patterson of Tlmmonsvllle and Miss
Lawtou of Hijrtsviile. s. who have heen
the bonoied guests of Mr. J. M. Law ion and ?
family, left yesterday for their respective A
homes. These lRdies were much pleased wilh A
our city and people, and during their stay
met quite a number of our ladles who will "
remember them most pleasantly. [c
Mr. A. W. McNeill and family who have
been spending several months with thfir Hl
brother Mr. Thomas McNeill of Sharon have 11
moved to Abbeville wtiere they will make
their home lor the present. These are good
people aud we welcome them to our city.
The ScAut cars will he remembered as one
of the events of 1901). Who would have ever m
dreamed of a highway from the Sunny South ai
to the city of New York upon which road ai
many will travel instead of by rail. The r?
publio highway for the great, machines will M
be built and upon It many will come aud go.
Everybody seems forging to the front, aud
the "watchword" of the day seems to be "forward,"
the world itself seems punhtng onward
aud upward, as we are uow trying to V
buot up our neighbors in the planets far
a
above ue?. ? u?t
We understand the ministers of the d liferent
churches in Abbeville will on next Sun- T
day preucb temperance sermons. Tbe publie
are most cordially iDvlted. Let every- 6
body go and find all tbe good they can on
this great subject tbat is now shaking tea
foundations of tbe world so to speak, aud ^
is awaking world-wide interest among its J
inhabitants. Let Christians vote as tbey
pray, and dare to do tbe right. "
The McGowan-Gary house is now upon its
new site and is, we learn, to be repainted,
? filled up with water "works' and electric
ligots aud will outshine tbe gjory of its former
days for we remember when It was "one
of tbe houses" in Abbeville, but alas its former
greatness Ib lost, when we look Hround
upon the many handsome buildings of modern
architecture and beauty. This is a significant
fact tbat old things are passing
away, and new ones coming in. This will
till be a neat and pretty cottage when renewed
and finished anew.
The City Council have opened up "Marshall
Avenue" leading over tue brow of Magazine
bill to the baseball grounds with nice
sidewalks on either side. Thiols a great Improvement.
Crops never presented a more flattering
appearance than now; they are generally
weil worked, clean of grass and growing
nicely. Corn has a rich dark green color.and
from me waiving utiu? wo
to be a larger acreage than usual planted.
Slock ol all kinds generally look well and
everything seems to be nourishing on the
farm.
Abbeville's "young marooners" returned
last Saturday from a week's stay at Mllwood
on the rolling Savannah. It is needless to
.say tbey had a splendid tlm# and plenty
fish. We don't suppose they killed any bear
or wild turkeys as they carried a box of
shells but forgot their guns. They all arrived
home sate and sound, some by rail
and some by the dirt road.
"M" captured a large "cooter" last Friday
night near McUaw's bridge and brought It to
the city and presented It to Mr. Doc Bowie
who en]oyed it for hi? Sunday dinner.
Messrs. Charlie McKenzle,Robert McCanty,
Bennet and Eugene Link spent ast Saturday
night and Sunday with their home people. ;
Mr. C.F.Graves and family, accompanied
by Miss Lillian McCanty, were among the
visitors In the city Friday.
Misses Kobena Gilliam and Ada McNeill
were the charming gnests of their friend
Miss Louise McKenzle Tuesday.
Sbaron and Bethel teams crossed bats last
Saturday afternoon, and after a hotly contested
game Sharon's team came out ahead.
Little Mary and Master William Nickles
are spending the week with their ciandparents.
Miss Mary Wilson and brother Mr. T. E
Wilson of Gralnrldge were among the welcome
guests in tbe city one day last week.
Messrs. J. H. Penney and R. P. McNeill
were In tbe city la6t Monday attending to
business.
Miss Beatrice Adams after a protracted stay
with her sister Mrs. W. H. Edmonds of
Spartanburg, Is expected home today. ,
Mrs. Janle Fosbrook Is spending a while
with her sister Mrs. A. J. Woodhurst ol
Sbaron.
Mr. W. C. McNeill and one of his llttlo sons
were in the clly last week.

South Carolina's Democrats
Keowee Courier.
It Is really refreshing to watch, even at
long range, the course of our representatives
in national affairs?at least It is refreshing
in some Instance*; provoklDgly tiresome In
others. Moet conspicuous among the refreshing
ones has been the course of Congressman
Aiken, of the Third, who has
steered clear of entangling alliances with
"the enemy" throughout and has held fast
to Democratic principles of merit at all
times. 1
Senator ?. D. Smith Is another whose
course, though Just in the formative stages.
Is keeping well to the main channel of Democratic
principles.
This long-drawn-out discussion of tariff
issues may result In little or no immediate
benefit to the American people as a whole,
but If our Democratic Senators and Representatives
will stand squarely by their guns as
ilr. Smith and Mr. Aiken are doing, there
will be future results beneficial to the Democratic
party,which is not dead, tut Bleepeth."

70 BALES ON 60 ACRES
IS WHAT WADE DRAKE
RAISED LAST YEAR
Editor Daily Mail:
Dear Sir?The following correspondence
will explain itself. Kindly publish
it and very much oblige us.
Yours truly,
Anderson Phos. & Oil Co.
Mr. J. Wade Drake, Anderson, S. C.
Dear Sir?We have heard that by a
IlDeraiuseoi lenmzeis, pim
aide dressing, you made seventy bales
of cotton on sixty acres of land last
year. We will appreciate it if you
will give us your method of preparation,
fertilization and cultivation
which resulted in this crop. We wish
to give the public the benefit of your
experience as we think it will be an
inducement to farmers to side dress
their crops.
Thanking you in advance for the
favor of an early reply, we are,
Yours truly.
Anderson Phos. & Oil Co.
Anderson Phosphate & Oil Co., Anderson,
S. C.
Gentlemen?Answering your favor
of the 7th will say that after preparing
the land well I put two hundred
pounds of fertilizer to the acre before
planting. At the second plowing I
applied four hundred and fifty pounds
more of fertilizer to the acre and when
the first cotton blooms appeared I applied
seventy pounds of nitrate of soaa
| to the acre. I did this on sixty acres |
of land which I planted in cotton and
on the sixty acres I gathered sixtyeight
bales of cofton, axeraging 511
pounds to the bale. And then, when
I thought I had gathered the crop after
Christmas, I picked enough cotton to
make 712 pounds of lint cotton so it
will be seen that altogether I made
more than seventy 500-pound bales of
cotton on the sixty acres. I cultivated
this cotton as I usually cultivate my
cotton except that it was fertilized better
than usual. A good part of this
fertilizer was Anderson Phosphate and
Oil company fertilizer, tbe balance was
other standard brands. I was never
able to see any difference in the cotton
fertilized by Anderson goods and the
other goods. Yours truly,
J. Wade Drake.

Dear Sirs : I have your letter of
June 4th, and in reply will say that
my experience in side dressing corn
last year was as lollows : In one field
of about 15 acres which I planted in
corn I side dressed 10 acres and left
p five acres not side-dressed. On the 10
> acres which I side-dressed I made 35
bushels to the acre. On the five acres
not side-dressed the yield was not over
10 bushels to the acre. It cost me
about $30 to side dress the 10 acres;
about $3 per acre. It increased the
yield at least 25 bushels of corn per i
acre. I Intended side dressing the :
whole 15 acres but rain came on and
continued so long until the corn was
too far advanced bpfore I could get to j
it to side dress it. It will pay any one '
handsomely to side dress corn.
Yours truly,
J. E. Stevenson.
You will see what side dressing has
, done for Wade Drake and Jim Steven!
son. It will pay you as well as it did
! them if you will do the needful. Side
; dressing will pay you better than any
. fertilizer you putin the grouud. We
' have some very superior goods for sale
for side dressing. See our ageuts.
