At a meeting last night ea l-d by the I'reddeiit of the South Ctrnllna -Mare Farmer*’ Union, tn consider the fertil izer question, the following a lion was taken : “The Farmers’ Union recommended to the farmer* tn make feriiiixcr per. ments for 191$ in three equal install menu; the first to lie made not earlier than December l«t, and the remaining two at interval* of not leu than thirty davs.” Tho Htate Secretary Treasurer was instructed to send this recommendation down to the local Union* and through the press to ask that all farmer* Insist upon *ii< li terms. This with the action of the county huslnes* agents of the Union at the re cent meeting in Columbia advising our people to bur no ftrtliltera except at substantial reduction from price* now prevailing and to be very conservative in their purchase* regardless rf the price* that may be offered, ts regarded by thoughtful men in tue order and business men and bankers who were present by invitation as being a long step toward preventing sacrifice sale* of cotton that we so often see to meet the obligation* incurred to pa* for excessive fertilizer bills.

In a report Issued by the the District, health department it is pointed out that pneumonia and other disease* of the teaplratory sy stem may be expected to figure largely In tho mortality tables of the District from now until spring, and with reference to method* of pre venting these diseases the report savs; “The best way to prevent pneumonia it to stop lowering the resisting pow ers of the body. Breathe good, pure air at all times. Keep the windows open and your sleeping apartments well ventilated and avoid excesses— especially in the uae of intoxicating liquor*. “Aa a general rule, the mala sex shows a greater proportion of deaths from pneumonia than d«e« the female, because men frequent more insanitary places than women and more fre quently ovei indulge In eating and in alcoholic drinks, and then expose themselves to cold air. These condl tiona often produce 'sudden conges tion* of the respiratory organs, and thus Is created a fertile soli for tfee development of the germs of pneu monia. “Cold weather and pnenmonia usu ally go hand in band, although cold weather per ee does not dlraotly cause this disease.

On this aame uharge an effvrt was made several month* ago to bring lawyer Felder to till* State for trial, but Gov- • rnor Joseph K. Brown of Georgia re fused lo honor tbe requisition. Judge Gage who la presiding at New berry instructed the Grand Jury to act first on all other bill*, reserving the Felder indictment to the last, as the case cannot potslbly be tried at this term. TRESPASS LAW PLAIN. Already several compDlnta hare been beard from rbe fanners about hunters going through th- lr field* and knocking cotton from the bolls to the ground, and it woti'd not he surpri sing to hear of indictment* being brought against those who me gull y of such offenses.

Furthermore, anyone can prose cute you. The owner or the lessee need notitppear in the matter at ajl Any one can make an nfli Javrt before a magis trate, and it then becomes the duty of the magistrate to summon the accused party, try the case and, if the man be found guilty, to impose and collect the line I tie prosecuting witness incurs no expense fur the alHdavit or fur any thing connected with the case.
