Save Your Fertilizer—Deetroy Your Cotton Stalks. The farmers of Laurens county have been hard hit this time in a num ber of ways, but we all feel that this drought is sent here for a purpose. We are to do our part and all things will work out for our. good. Since this condition exists here, why not gefc^busy now and make the best of what we have, and beTHank- ful that conditions are not worse than what they are. I suppose that B5 per cent or more of the cotton is harvested in our coun ty by now. We farmers know that a large amount of this year’s fertilizer is still in the soil untouched by the crops. Are we going to let our cot ton stalks stand and put on a new growth when rain sets in and use up cur high-priced fertilizer, or are we going to destroy them as soon as pos sible and save our *fertilizer ? This is? one way we can help ourselves through this trying time. You all know that the growth on cotton stalks from now on will be perfectly worth less to man so far as this year’s yield concerned. This is an ideal year to destroy all the stalks and sow grain for feed in the cotton land to use the fertilizer that is in the soil. Feed, yes, feed, is what the farmers are wanting now for their stock. On account of the earliness of the ‘cotton, we can sow our grain early and help relieve the situation early next spring. You have often heard farmers say, “Well, what’s the use of me destroy ing my stalks, when my neighbor across the way doesn’t destroy his?” Can we say that this time? No, for the farmer who destroys his stalks will prevent his fertilizer from being fesed by worthless growth on his cot ton stalks, and turn it into profitable Rates fwr advertising in this column are one cent per worn for eaOi Inser tion, with a* minimum charge of ttc, payable invariably in advance.

It would be* profitable to destroy the stalks, even if you do not sow any grain or cover crops. But, remember, that the fertilizer will be leaching out of the soil all during the winter rains. By destroying the cotton stalks and planting cover crops we can save this fertilizer and turn it back to the soil in the form of green manure, or pro duce valuable hay from the crops. Nothing could please the business men and farmers of our county more than to make a county-wide campaign on destruction of the cotton stalks to save the high-priced fertilizer for the growing of hay. Just to give you people a little in formation, although the land is still dry, the interest the farmers are tak ing in sowing winter cover crops. I have ordered from September 1 to September 16 4,035 pounds of seed for the farmers. I feel sure that I could have doubled this amount in the same length of time if the farmers had some way of borrowing money to buy same. If there is anything that I can aid you in, let me know.
