I wish to expresa my sincere ap preciation of the loyal support given me by my friends In the primary election of Aug. 31; and to those who voted against me, voting their own conviction for tho man of their choice, (untramelled and unbiased by political lies, of which there was not only an abundance, but quite a variety,) i have nothing but tho kindest fooling. Keeling assured that they voted their honest conviction as they saw lt, for the best interest of our County and State, I could have no other than tho best of regard for those who voted from the Impulse of honest conviction. To those pygmies whose choice it was to use personal and political hate, including misrepresentation, I extend tho hopo that they may draw such satisfaction as they can from the knowledge that by harassing and misrepresenting me they helped to bring about my defeat. But In look ing back over the campaign I am proud of the fact that my record la unsoiled by any word of misrepre sentation and unstained by any blow below tho belt. In common with all who held to democratic methods, re gardless of their sometimes dissatis fying resulta,-I bow to the popular verdict and wish the winner a term of high service to our county and State. The opportunities which lie before us are too abundant and the duties to be performed by all good citizens aro too manifold for any nursing of malice. Therefore, let us each and all dedicate our deepest faith and heartiest effort to the up building of our beloved State. In conclusion, 1 wish to express my deep gratitude to my friends for their many kind expressions of con fidence in me and regret at the re sult of the primary. Very respectfully, adv*) JAS. H. BROWN.

Columbia, S. C. SOW GRAIN Tills will lio a good your to sow wheat, tlio piico of farm products grown In this section is coining down, and when this is tho case it will pay every fellow to como as near malling his liv ing at homo as ho can. And then Mr. Urtu*, our County Agoni, says tho boll weovll will probably spread all over Anderson Coun ty. lt has been spreading over since it started up in .Mexico, some thirty odd years ago, and so far shows no sign whatever of stop ping. Tho Greonvillo Nows of September 15th reports tho boll weevil has entered certain townships in Greenville County. When wo have wot Julys and Augusta lt will bo very damaging to tho cotton crop, and so lt will pay every follow to make his living at homo. Besides, it will pay every farmer to sow wheat to get tho stubble. This stubble puts his land In such fine lix to make an extra crop the following year. Throe ncros to thc plow will do tho business. Thoroughly prepare as early as you cnn three acres to the plow, get a good seed bed, and then as soon after the first killing frost as you can, sow in the drill four or five pocks of wi lent to the nero, fortllizo with 400 pounds of our 10-2-2. Sow In the drill, as you will got tho seed more evenly distributed and nt a moro uniform depth, and lt will stand the winter better, and you will get far bettor results. Hostdes better result? you will got better broad than yon can got from any flour you can buy, and your broad will cost you very little. Tho wheat straw will pay for tho fertilizer. There is a good demand for wheat straw. Follow the stubble with peas, und pick tho peas. You can't supply tho doma nd for petts nt top prices. Follow tho peas with rye, cut tho ryo In the spring Just when your stock and cattlo need some groen food; follow tho rye with cotton fertilized with (MM) pounds of our 8-:t-:t to tho acre, and you can majko flvo bales of cotton on tho three acres. Tho cotton seed will ordinarily pay for (he fertilizer. That three acres to tho plow will pay you better than any other throe acres you will cultivate. Tho wheat, pens, ryo ned cotton will cost you so little, and your crops will be abundant and your bread will bo wholesome. There is very little nppondlcitis with people who mako their ' own foodstuffs, and then you will bo keeping your money in your own bank account. Sow four or flvo pecks to tho nero. Tho Coed Hook says if you sow sparingly you will reap sparingly. Wo all like to reap amundant measure. The way to do that is to prepare thoroughly, fertilize liberally, sow liberally In tho drill after tho th st killing frost. I'ut down fertilizer; the straw will pay for it. It is a good timo to begin planning to sow your wheat. You can mako things flt in botter when you plan ahead. Any year ls a good year to sow oat*, and this ts no exception by any means. Prepare thoroughly and sow,,as oarly as you cnn, three acre? to tho plow. Sow In tho drill and fertilizo with 400 pounds of our 10-2-2 to tho acre. Your crop will como on next season just at tho height of tho work soasen, and your stock will ?lo bettor if you food thom freely on oats when they ?re doing their hardest work. It dom look like tho mules' needs and com forts and appetites should be consulted a little, seeing that their work is indispensable in making a crop. Oats aro profitable when you make good crops, and you cnn make good crops when you preparo well and early, and fertilize liberally. Sow eight or ten peeks to the nero in the drill, follow with pens and rye and cotton, and the crops will be cheap anti your lands will Improve No trouble about a bumper crop of cotton after that. The farmers seem to be interested In sowing cover crops this fall, and these cover crops need fertilizer. We have tho fertilizer, and it is for sale. Anderson Phosphate & Oil Go* ? W. F.
