"On both sides of the railroad for the 90-odd miles to Columbia every available acre seems to have been prepared for the usual cotton crop. This condition probably is not peculiar to this section of the State and if there are not as many bales grown in South Carolina this year as there were last year I tliink it will be because so many farmers are unable to secure fertilizer to put under their crops and not because of any real desire to decrease the size of flic crop. The farmers seem.to be standing to-j I get her all right?for as big crop as they can get out of tin? ground." GRADED SCHOOL NEWS. (Written for The Times.)
