Trade Seed For Meal
Farmers of Kershaw county are
hereby advised to swap their cotton
seed for cotton seed meal where they
can get a reasonable trade. It is also
reported that some of the oil mills
will deliver the meal and haul the
seed away from the farmer's place
for only 50 pounds of meal per ton
traded.
One hundred pounds of cotton seed
contain 3.7 pounds of ammonia, Impounds
of phosphoric acid and 1:5
pounds, of potash; a ton of cot .on
seed would contain 74 pounds of ammonia,
30 pounds of phosphoric- acid
and 30 pounds of potash. 100 pounds
of cotton seed meal contain 7 pounds
of ammonia, 2.5 pounds of phosphoric
acid and" 1.5 pounds of potash; 1,400
pounds of cotton seed meal would
contain 98 pounds of ammonia. 35
pounds of phosphoric acid and 21
pounds of potash. In other words it
a farmer traded a ton of seed for
1,400 pounds of cotton seed meal he
would gain 24 pounds of ammonia,
5 pounds of phosphoric acid and lose
9 pounds of potash. Tf he exchanged
at the rate of 1 ton of seed for 1,600
pounds of meal he would gain 38
poupds of ammonia, 10 pounds of
phosphoric flicid and lose 6 pounds of
potash.
If a farmer should use cotton seed
as fertilizer he should be very particular
to kill the seed, before putting
them in the ground. This may be
done by mixing them with manure
and allowing to stand for A day or
two. However, this operation is likely
to cause considerable loss of volatile
ammonia unless the farmer is
very careful, to keep down heating.
Also it ebould be remembered that
decomposed or rotting seed put in
the ground for the purpose of fertilizer
may cause the planting seed
to decay unless a sufficient amount
of dirt is kept between the fertilizing
seed and planting seed. Also it
would be ajgood idea jn^ the case of
using seed to stir the seed in the soi
before planting. The amount of oil
contained in the seed is of no value
to plants and therefore is lost when
seed are put in the ground for fertilizer.
,
Two pounds of cotton seed hav
about the same amount of food as 1
pound of meal.
For further information on this
subject you are requested to get in
touch with your county agent, Henry
D. Green.

PA LOS, SPAIN
From Whence Columbus Sailed Near ,
Four and a Half Centuries Ago
Nearly four and a half centuries!
ago three small caravels, commanded
by Christopher Columous, spread
their sails and glided slowly down
the Kio Tinto, off Palos, Spain, to
the broad bosom of the unknown Atlantic.
Seven months later two of
the caravels returned to Palos with '
news of a great discovery that even- 1
tually carried the. name of this tiny 1
fishing port in southwestern Spain 1
to every part pt the civilized world.
Next February a duplicate of the !
"Santa Maria," the flagship of Co- '
lumbus which did not return, will sail '
for America from Palos under .the 1
command of a crew of adventurous <
Spanish youths, who plan to bring '
their fragile 229-ton ship across the '
Atlantic and then t^fo>gh the Great 11
Lakes to Chicago for the 1933 expo- 1
sition.
"Palos, the point of embarkation of
Columbia and those who follow in his
footsteps, is an insignificant little village
today, with hardly anything* to
remind it of its illustrious past," says
a bulletin from the Washington, 1).
C., headquarters of tho National Geographic
Society/
& "If the modern 'Santa Maria' wishes
literally td re-enact the famous
sailing of August 3, 1492, it will have
to wait until the tide is at its height,
because the old roadstead has long
since silted up, and shipping which
once plied between Palos and other
porta of Europe now anchors off
IJuelvu, on the near-by Odiel River.
"When the wealth of the New
World was realised, Seville was given
the monopoly of trade with America,
snd then San Lucar, its nearest port
to the sea, came into its own. Columbus
put off from San Lucar on
his third voyage, and Magellan's
^lobe-girdling ships sailed from the
lame port. Palos, meanwhile, was
neglected. v
"Palos de Moguer, or Palos de la
Prontera, to call it "by itu two imposing
Spanish names, had another big
moment when Cortez chose it as a
landing place in 1528 after his conquest
of, Mexico. Wagons loaded
with loot qf the empire of the Aztecs
rumbled through its narrow streets,
and dashing caballeros- on beplumed
horses awed the loiterers of the
waterfronts. But again other Spanish
ports superceded it, and Palos
continued a humdrum role as a fishing
village,
"In 11)29 Palos came momentarily
into the day's news when u colossal
stone statue of Columbus, designed
by an American, was dedicated on the
exact spot where Columbus is said to
havo set sail for America. A detachment
of American sailors took
part in the exercises and the rumble
of drums awoke the echoes of the
L
sleepy little fishing village which for
400 years had known few visitors,
"Another reminder of Columbus in
this region is the La Rabida Monastery,
opposite the junction point of
the Odlel and Tinto fivers, about a I
mile and a quarter from Palos. I*
Kabida, now purtly in ruins, played
an important role in the discovery of
America, ,for it was here that the
adventurer Columbus found a sympathetic
listener in Fray Juan Perez
de Marchena, the prior of the monastery
and once confessor of Queen
Isabelln. The prior induced tho
Queen to finance the voyage.
| "A stone from La Kabida MonasI
tery will be carried in tho hold of the
I new 'Santa Maria' for the lighthouse
memorial being erected to Columbus
in Santo Domingo. It was off the
coast of the Island of %into Domingo,
9$ Haiti, that the^original 'Santa
M?ria' was wrecked.
Modern Huelva, jusft around the
corner from Palos, is a thriving city
of 30,000 inhabitants with an activ#
trade in copper and sulphur ores, and
in tuna and sardine fishing. At
flood-tide tho biggest ocean vessels
may ascend the Odiel River to its
wharves." '
Curfew
So many robberies have been committed
in Florence that the chief of
police has issued an order to his
men to arrest all persons found on
the streets after midnight, unless
they can give a good uccount of themselves.
That would be a very good
order to be enforced in every town.
Few people have good reason to be
away fi'6m their home after midnight.
