f AN UP-TO-THE-MINUTE FARMER
r Good Yield Made by Dr. W. 0.
i Brown ^Commented 011 Editorially
by Washington Paper.
A copy of The llcrahl and News

I ' I' i*. W. Brown Cell into tin; hands!
- of the Washington, I). (\, Herald
- and umL-r he caption "Ah I'p-to-the
.Minute l'armer," the Herald writes
a leading editorial which we ?i ve
- Iierewitli.
1 Dr. Brown is not one of the largest;
- 2aimers hut he is an intelligent far
ni.-r. He iias no better land than
i many other farmers, hut the has
studied the fertilizer his soil needs
and knows how to apply it and then
< how to cultivate it and then lie pro-1
l eeeds to do it.
t The facts mentioned by The Her<
aid and News were stated by Dr.
I i llrow n one day to several gentlemen
[ Ion tiii- street and he did not state
; them for publication but The Herald
. ami News knew Dr. Drown to be
i truthful a id reliable and that he
: would make no statement which
' M'ouhl not he verified and thinking
I I hat publication of what lie had done

J Jto tin likewise the item was printed.
t \\ hether Dr. Brown is in commnni'
cation with tIn- government at Wash'
inuton lie can answer for himself.
\\ e do not know.
He is president of the Partners'
I niou for this county and is always
ready to help his neighbors. He not
1 only does good farming but he keeps
good slock.
^ d.? not know whether he has
any desire to have "postmaster"
added to his name, but if it should
take him from his farm it would be
:i misfortune for him as well as the
vocation lie is now following so successfully.
Another farmer in this county, in
another section, where the seasons
were not lavorable did not make so
, much to the acre but with three
, J plows made -|."> bales of cotton, :i()0
_ bushels of corn and 2000 bundles of
I odder. Phis is not so bad. In fact
r it is very good. Wo suppose lie madv
l? some oats also. lie is not a larire
_ farmer either. It is the small far.
mer who attends to his business, who
in I onus himself and applies his
knowledge who is succeed in g. He
should yet this knowledge from1

e reference was made, from the Washi
nut on paper:

ing-house certificates and the whate
mils of modern business and lei; islad
live movements and manipulation
> need have no terrors for farmers of
a intelligence and circumspection is
k\ |>roven most abundantly in the ease
d o| one Dr. \\ . ('. Drown of Newber
! _ r\\ S. ('. If all the agricultural ac?e
hievements attributed f? this partie10
ular Lien ins by the Newberry Herald
r anil News are true his methods are
11 well worth studying by those interim
ested in such matters; provided, of
ie course, he may be induced to reveal
,t Hie secrets thereof.
r We read in the Herald and News
n some startling statements about the
is prowess of Dr. Brown. We note
ie Iiiat he Hunks little or nothing of
reaising twenty bales of cotton on
fourteen acres of land: while he is
credited quite casually with gatherin
jr sixty bushels of oats from one
li- certain acre of ground, only to reV
plant it immediately in corn and
*s reap ninety bushels of that ! His
motto is, "How much better it is to
>.v plant a few acres and gather as
1- much grain as we Either from many
acres.''
We have not the pleasure of Dr.
I Brown's acquaintance. We are not
s- familiar with the result-gel t ing lines
>.V along which he proceeds. We sus>?
peel, however, that he is one of those
d- argrieultnrists^ with whom Hie govvs
era men t at Washington has been in
?y league and toward whom attention
18 i; directed in the President's message
to Congress, wherein he says:
up "iTlie Department of Agriculture
has in many places, perhaps especial)U
lv in certain districts of the south,
accmoplished an extraordinary
amount by eooperating with and
teaching the farmers * * * how to
increase their income by managing
h' their farms better than they were
1,1 heretofore managed."
d- Tf our paternal government is,
really, responsible for Dr. Brown's
methods of cultivating the soil, its
work has not been in vain. Down
[?c south the farm that produces one
n* bale of cotton to the acre heretofore
has been considered a wonder. As a
>1' rule, the production, lifts hardly averaged
one bale to two acres. Here is
a man who makes one and one-half
bales to the acre, practically and
thinks lightly of it! As to the other
performance noted it is no leas wonderful.
We do not state it for a fact that
Dr. Brown has been in league with
the government. The ease is one dependent
largely upon circumstantial
evidence of course. The great success
of his cultivation, however,
coupled with the government's \v?*11 known
willingness to undertake the
proper regulation of any and everything
undor the sun. leads us to suspect
thai credit for his eminence
among his neighboring farmers is,
after all. plainly traceable to Washington.
It' this be true, we see no
good and sullicient reason why the
further title of "postmaster" may
not some day be added to the doctor's
name.
