Finest Tobacco Seed Given Away.
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.

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.

wrecked the fast mail on the Western
North Carolina railroad near States
