Many of our farmers will turn their attention to the cultivation of tobac co this Bpriug, in the place of cotton; hut in order to succeed in this new undertaking it is necessary to get the very best seed. Those who plant in ferior seed will surely fail. The far mer should take the least risk possi ble and begin right by obtaining the seed that is specially adapted to his soil and climate. In order to assist our farmers in this matter, we have obtained a quantity of tobacco seed of the very finest varieties from the famous Ragland seed farm at Hyco. Virginia, which seed is warranted to be the very best to be had on the mar ket. This seed it will afford us pleas ure to distribute free to our subscri-/ hers. To all who may call at The Recorder office, or may write, en closing a two-cent stamp, we will give or send enough seed to plant a seed bed of ten square yards. It is our desire to encourage the cultivation of tobacco in this State and to facilitate our subscribers in getting the purest seed of the varie ties best suited to our soil. It is stated by manufacturers and others who have succeeded in cultivating tobacco profitably in South Carolina, that our farmers should let cigar tobacco alone and cultivate the varieties used for manufacturing, the best of which are the Conqueror, Gooch, Hester and Oronoko for brights, fillers, &c.; Hyco for fine-cut smoking; and Sweet Oro noko for chewing. And these are the varieties of seed we have obtained for distribution* Many of our farmers know some thing about the cultivation of tobac co and have had some little experi ence in it. However, the following extract from the Southern Tobacco Journal gives information that may be valuable to some: “One of the first requisites of a to bacco crop is to have plenty of strong, healthy tobacco plants when the sea son for setting comes around. To have weakly plants, and an insuffi cient supply, puts the crop behind at the start and is often the diiect cause of failure. He is the wise planter who heeds this caution and bestirs himself to avoid this trouble into which so many planters fall. "The first thing to be done in rais ing a crop of tobacco is the burning of the plant land. (Select your richest woodland that is not too sprouty,—on southern slope is best. Cut all trees near the place for bed, as water drip ping from limbs injures the plants. Then burn thoroughly—not too hard, but enough to kill the seeds of auy vegetation that may be in the soil. ike off all coals, leav- ip bed well, Russia is so far away that few of us realize the intensity of the suffer ing in the famine districts of that country. It is stated that about 20,- 000,000 of people are affected, of whom many thousands must die uuless re lief is had at once, and continued un til another harvest is gathered next fall. The arrangements for the dis tribution of aid are so efficient that $0 will support one person for the next eight months. An expenditure of 60 cents a month gives one person two bowls of soup and two pieces of black bread daily. The wife of the great novelist. Tolstoi, is at the head of one of the relief associations in Russia. Her address is Countess Sophia An- dreievan Tolstoi, 1 Dolgo-Khamovits- hesky Pereulok, Moscow. Contribu lions may be sent direct to her, or to the News and Courier in Charleston. Increase of Taxation. After burnim ing the ashes. The dig up and down, so a! any of the bottom soil on thoroughly, removing all rod 25 pouuds of some good standa tilizer per hundred square yards, rake in. If you have not the fertil izer, use manure that is free from grass seeds; the best is from hog pens. This being done, ditch well that no water may flow through. Then sow one tablespoonful of seed to every hundred square yards. Theu tramp well and cover with canvas or brush.” If the sowing is done in February the plants will be ready for trans planting by the 1st of May. Some of the more successful tobacco growers in South Carolina use an ordinary hot-hed for the propagation of the young Diants similar to that used for growing cabbage plants and other tender vegetables, and find this method very satisfactory. How Aikeu is Slandered. One of the greatest tributes to the merit of the eiimate of Aiken is the constant circulation of slanders re garding it. One recently called to our attention is the deliberate use of incorrect meteorological reports based on observations taken on imperfect instruments many years ago. It is well known that humidity is one of the most important character istics of a climate, as it affects persons troubled with ailments of the throat and lungs; and the low percentage of humidity in the atmosphere in Aiken is what makes this the best climate known tor invalids of the classes named. Many years ago the observations taken on imperfect instruments show ed a mean humidity during the win ter months in Aiken of 63 percent.; but since that time the more accurate observations on improved instru ments show an average of 58 per cent., compared with 71 in Jacksonville, 63 in Thomasville, and 65 in Los An geles, California. The Thomasville and Florida people have, not hesitated to make use of this old error in regard to Aiken’s climate In the advertisements of their places, and deliberately ignore the later truth; aad our own people have got to work energetically to combat tbe slanders circulated. How do tbe farmers who elected Gov. Tillman and his “reformers” two years ago, under the promise of taxation, like the suggestion of tbe editor of the Abbeville Medium—the friend of administrations in the past and present of widely different char acters—that if the present Tillman administration can not refund the State debt, it can pay it off by in creasing the taxation. The Medium says: “Our State can very easily pay the whole amount by a very slight in crease of taxation in the course of a few years and be entirely free from debt. Any bond-holder who does not wish to exchange for the new 4 per cents no doubt would gladly consent to such an arrangement. He would get his money, the people would hardly feel it, and there would be no more fuss about the matter.” It almost takes one’s breath away to hear a prominent “reformer” advi sing an increase of taxation to make up for the incompeteucy of the pres ent administration. Railroad Freight Traffic Resumed at Last. From Ihe State. The railroads, from present indica tions, will soon be out of their diffi culties if the freight business contin ues as it has beguu within the last few days. The beginning of the yearly move ment of fertilizers last week has al ready been referred to, but no one had the slightest Idea that it would amount to much iu the near future. Tuesday, however, a prominent offi cial of the South Carolina Railway said that business had been resuming such proportions that the road is put to its best to secure enough cars to haul the fertilizers and other freight being presented for shipment. Over at the Richmond and Danville road the freight business lias picked up wonderfully, but it is as yet noth ing to compare with the pressure at the South Carolina road. It now seems, however, that the dull season and the crisis is oyer, and better times may be looked for. Miss Etta McBride Traced. List of Visitors. Cleveland Clubs. D. B. Hill is manipulating tbe ma chinery of the Democratic party of the country to secure eventually his nomination for the presidency. He is trying to defeat the wishes of an overwhelming majority of the Dem ocrats, and it is full time that an ear nest, effective protest was made to his unscrupulous conduct. Au effective way to give expression to our disapprobation of Hill’s meth ods, and circumvent his cold, selfish ambition, is to organize Cleveland clubs in every County and arouse public feeling in favor of true Democ racy, such as is represented by Cleve land. Il ls stated that tbe detective^ le track of Miss Etta Mt lasted nd disap* young ant with They went’ bought a ho: 1 and made for Miller and ^ Pleasant, and, iuformalion tb^^^^^^H^LOgether with the chiefslBW^rom Oakley, the charming Etta will be found and brought to Charleston. Attempt at Suicide. Mr. W. H. Boulware a well known country merchant of Edgefield Coun ty, living near the Aikeu line at tempted to commit suicide ou Satur day night by cutting his throat. It is stated that he had been drinking heavily for some time previous, and during an attack of delirium trenens plunged a knife into his throat. He was found in he'd next morning tying uncoucious in a pool of blood. A physician was summoned and the work of resuscitation was begun. When he had sufficiently regained his presence of mind to speak sensi bly he voluntarily said that lie would rather kill himself than to be killed by the “blue devils.” He was better however at the last accounts. The cotton market continues very heavy with a declining tendency. Middling quoted at 6%c in Augusta. The receipts keep up In excess of those of last year for the same period and are coustrueted to indicate a very large crop. Messrs. Lehman Bros., of New York in their circular of the 10th inst. says that the estimates in that market of the crop of 1890 now range from 8,500,000 to 9,100,000. As to the future the Savannah News says: If there is an increase iu the crop next year cotton will sell at 5 cents in New York. It will not need an increase of the crop to do that even. If the crop is as large this year, and another year’s surplus is added to this year’s surplus, cotton will sell at 5 cents anyway. We have raised more cot ton than the world can consume. There is another thing- T.»e conti nent raised a small food crop last year and all their money is going for grain. Consequently the people of Europe are buying less cotton goods and the market is dull. John Boyd, the negro man who wrecked the fast mail on the Western North Carolina railroad near States ville August 27th last, b/ wnich tweuty-tnree persons lost their lives and a number of others were more or less seriously injured, is under arrest at Charlotte, N. C., and has made a full confession of his crime. DuGue Fergusou, son of Gen. 8. W. Ferguson, formerly 0/ Charleston, shot end killed James Goodman, merchant and large planter, on last Wednesday. Goodman’s brother was also wounded. The affray occurred at Leesburg, Miss., twenty'miles from Greenville.
