The Greatest Grass Grown in America. GROW SUDAN GRASS. The most wonderful grass of the ?go, introduced und endorsed by the United States Agricultural Department; tested severely by the farmers in nil parts of Texas, and strongly recommended by the Farinera' Oongre^S. Will grow anywhere that sorghum does from the Atlantic to the Pacific; makes more and better hay than any other plant known. Under ordinary conditions produces SOO to (51H) lbs. of grain and U to (J tons of choice hay per acre the same season. Adapted to all sorts of soil and resists drought and stands rain well. Takes 2 to 4 lbs. of seed to sow an acre in drills and 1(1 to 24 lbs. broadcast, (.juality of hay equals timothy, and all kinds of live stock prefer it to alfalfa, while poultry light for the seed. Last spring the seed sold for $2 to $4 per ll)., and all who grew it then expect to plant mon? another year. It. is now selling for $1 per lb. and will go higher before spring, as the supply is limited and the demand steadily on the increase. We will send, prepaid, pure Sudan Seed for $1 uer lb. in lots of f>0 lbs. and under-not less than one lb. consideren ; larger lots by freight cheaper. Better order now and be sure of getting your seed, and save money besides, then'make more money next season.

It is Thought that Nitrates and Phos* phatos will bc Cheaper, (Abbeville Press and Banner.) There are a few facts relative to the use of fertilizers that should he in possession of every farmer. The general and more or less er roneous idea prevails that specially prepared guanos tend to build up the soil while the use of nitrate of soda as ammonia tends to rob the soil. Thc fact is thal neither of these eon tri hu tes materially to the soil, ex cept in returning humus, and neither robs the soil. If anything, the nitrate of soda possesses one advantage over other ingredients, in that it tends to release natural potash in the soil to a greater degree than any of the am moniates, which of itself is of value, owing to tiie scarcity of potash. A large stalk, full of foliage, raised from nitrate of soda, returns as much humus to the soil as a stalk from guanos with any other base of am monia. Nitrate of soda sold this last year for $56 per ton. Germany in the past has used more of this fertilizer than any other country, and now her ports are closed to it owing to the war. Practically the entire supply of nitrate of soda comes from Chili and other South American countries of Pacific coast. These are brought thousands of miles nearer to our market by rsason of the Panama Canal. lt is fair to assume, there fore, that, with tho greatly decreased demand for soda by foreign countries, and with water rates on a very much shortened route for shipping, soda will sell In this country next spring Tor about $3f> per ton, or little more than half its price last spring. Acid phosphate, an essential of all plant life, will likewise be cheaper, as it ls produced almost entirely in this country and will find no market in Europe. Potash is one of the three neces sary ingredients or plant life for which this country will go begging, and there is a fact about it that is more important than any mentioned. Red lands do not need potash. The ordinary red lands plowed to a depth of eight inches, contain and will yield natural potash sufficient for crops on ten times the area. This ls ar:i !:-;;,- sand) or buck-shot lands, which, if a scarcity of potash is to continue for long, will have to be treated by turning under legumi nous crops grown. This not only furnishes large quantities of potash and some ammonia, but prepares the soil for better results from the other two ingredients of fertilizer applied. A reasonable conclusion from these conditions, then, would seem to be to use phosphoric acid liberally In sow ing grain and next spring in prepar ing for summer crops. Then later buy nitrate of soda as the base of ammonia. Soda runs about 17 per cent am monia, and a ton is equivalent to more than four tons of high grade guano as to this ingredient. On red lands only the soda and phosphoric acid, comparatively a cheap ingredi ent, are necessary to make a complete guano, and will give ns good results as the most expensive guanos. Wc should not leave our readers to conclude that these remarks are based on individual experience or experimentation, for in that caso they would perhaps carry little weight. The fad is, our information was obtained in a conversation with the director of agriculture of Clem son College, and every statement made here as to the results of certain fertilizers on certain so,ls ls (he re sult of careful experimentation by, the department.

Perkins, who beard the warrant read without be ing atfected, and who showed an at titude of not knowing what be bad done, did not attend, nor did Capt. Ingram or Mr. Wright, both of whom ire in a local hospital. Story of tb? Tragedy. United States Assistant District Attorney A. R. Young questioned wit nesses. It was decided to hold Per kins for trial on the charge of having killed Mr. Hinman. It was brought out at the hearing that Perkins had been taking what be called headache powders to ex cess, and his roommate, N. K. Went worth., of Connecticut, said he was I suspicious of Perkins because of this. ! Soon after 8 o'clock last night Per kins, clad in pajamas and a raincoat. ; approached Capt. Ingrain and Mr. and .Mrs. Hinman, who were in con versation. He addressed a remark j to Capt. Ingram, who replied that ; Perkins must wear more suitable ap i pa nd if he wished to mingle with the other passengers. Perkins whipped J out his revolver and tired at Capt. ; Ingrain's abdomen, the bullet tak ing effect. He then shot Mr. Hin ? man and turned the weapon to Mr Wright, who was reclining on a sot ' tee. Ile shot Mr. Hinman again and ?tried to shoot Cnpi ingram, the bu! j let going wild. He turned the pls j toi on himself, but its five cartridges i had been discharged, i The steward and assistant stewart |of the Mohawk and several passen gers, bearing the shots, rushed to the scene and overpowered Perkins, who told bis captors that they could do as i they pleased with him, but witnesses allege that he wanted to get others who were on the steamship. Per kins was placed in irons and held un der close surveillance, and when the Mohawk docked this afternoon he was given into tlie custody of the au thorities, by whom he was placed in the insane ward of a local hospital. Capt. Ingram and Mr. Wright are ex pected to recover. Capt. Ingram was wounded in the abdomen and Mr. Wright in the thigh. Try this for Your Coughs.
