Mi ? +++*+* *++ * 4 IN THE LOCAL FIELD ?On account of the illness of Commissioner Aycock, the monthly meeting: of the county board of commissioners was not held last Wednesday, but was postponed till today. ?The new board of township assessors, made public a few days ago, consists of Hon. S. H. Epps. Sr., Mr. W. L. Hall and Mr. D. Kimbrell. Mr. Kimbrell is the only hold-over member from the old board. ? a citizen ot tne town asks The Times to say to those who are thinking of taking stock in the Standard Home Company that they would find it very profitable to get the experiences of a number of Rock Hill gentlemen who sometime ago placed money in a company conducted along somewhat similar lines. ?Trains from the North have now resumed regular schedules that were disarranged owing to the blizzards of the past week. The cold wave with its attendant snowstorms and high winds played havoc with telegraph wires and railroad schedules and for several days there were wire troubles and delayed trains. ?Mr. C. W. Eason, representing White Oak Camp No. 41, W. O. W. left Tuesday for Spartanburg to attend tne annual convention of the State grand i lodge of that order. Delegates from every camp in the State will be present and the Woodmen will have a great chopping. ?Under the new law, it is necessary that all mortgages and : other papers for record be filed 1 in the clerk of court's office with-1 in ten days after they are executed. Formerly the time limit was forty days. I ?According to the calendar of Mecklenburg civil court which convened Monday, the case of our townsman, L. A. Harris, against the Southern Railway, was to have been called today (Wednesday). This case, it will be remembered was continued from the last term. ?The Fort Mill friends and acquaintances of Mr. Mac. F. Curtis, a young man who a few years ago was employed in the drug store of the late Dr. T. B. Meacham at this place, will be interested to know of his marriage at Charlottesville, Va., on February 23 to Miss Ada Harbottle. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis are living at Dillon, S. C. ?It is rumored that the Southern Power Company, which is supplying the cotton mills and other manufacturing plants of this section with electric power, will within a short time open l general offices in Columbia similar to those it is maintaining in Charlotte, evidently for the purpose of extending its lines into the city of Columbia and surrounding communities. ?The annaal inspection of the Fort Mill Light Infantry will be held on April 15th, and the comv pany is already holding twice-aweek drills preparatory to the visit of the inspecting officers. The annual inspection of the South Carolina militia began at Edgefield Monday, the State being represented by Col. W. P. Brock, the assistant adjutant general and the war department by Lieut. Chas. H. Cabaniss, who is now detailed for duty in this State. ?Since the first of the month, and continuing for 30 days, the local postoffice and postoffices throughout the country have an additional burden. The rural carriers have to count every piece of mail they handle on ?ach trip, both the letters and packages which go out of the postofnce and those which are collected en route.

Rev. Edward S. Reaves, pas- 1 J tor of the Baptist church, an- ^ nounced at his services last Sun- 1 n day night that in the future there i will be preaching at this church every Sunday night. The sub- C iect for next Sunday night will _ be, ''What think ye of Christ." 2 ?The shipment of fertilizers ^ is about over now, it has been t about the same movement as last year. In spite of the declaration of the farmers that they were going to cut out ferlizers, the average quantity has been sold ' this year. The sales have been ! V a little slow, but the stuff is nearly all in the farmers' hands now. The new fertilizer law in regard to the constituents being kept to the standard will not be y effective this year, the goods had already been sold, but the farmers will get the benefit of it next year. ?Unless the president vetoes F the act, a law which will mean as much, probably more, to the farmer of the South than any ? legislatien of recent years will F soon become effective. The new act provides for the collecting and publishing of statistics concerning the amount of baled cotton on hand at given times, informing the farmer of the exact amount being held in the various mills of the country just as the buyers now obtain the amount of the crop being raised. It gives the farmer an equal amount of information, with reference to the demand, that the buyer now has with respect to the supply. = PERSONAL MENTION ? Mr. J. C.

Making More Money Out of Cotton Crops is merely a question of using enough of the right kind of fertilizers. Virginia-Carolina arc the right kind. The cotton plant cannot feed on barren land. Study your soil. Find out what it lacks. Then apply the necessary fertilization and the results will surprise you. See what Mr. W. C. Hays of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says: "I planted about 30 acres of some 'gray sandy land' that had been in cultivation for over 20 years, and used 300 pounds of Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers per acre, and I expect to gather SO bales from the SO acret." This is why we say it is the right kind. We have hundreds of letters like this, and even stronger, in praise of VirginiaCarolina Fertilizer for cotton. Get a copy of the new 1909 Virginia-Carolina Farmers' Year Book from your fertilizer dealer, or write our nearest sales office and a copy will be sent you free.
