active for one of his years
and seldom a day passes in which
he is not seen on the streets of

Fort Mill township is to be divided
into three census districts
instead of two districts and the

was sent out one day
last week from the office of the

for enumerators held
by Postmaster Massey some
weeks ago, five citizens of the
township stood the test and it is
expected that the names of the
successful applicants will be announced
within two weeks.

cost less than labor. During the
last fortnight scores* of farm

waguns nave uume iu tuwn ana
returned to the plantations of
their owners loaded with commercial
fertilizers for the coming
season. This, too, notwithstanding
the fact that the public roads
are in bad condition from the recent
rains. Ail which indicates
that the use of fertilizers hereabouts
this year will be in excess
of the amount used in any year
in the past. It seems that the
farmers have decided to increase
the amount of fertilizer used per
acre on a smaller acreage, with
the hope of a better yield per acre.
