.1 V Farmers’ " ’ Department 1 There seems to be but one condi tion that would justify a farmer in usinsr his cotton seed directly as a fertilizer, viz., when he would have to haul the seed so far (and the meal back) that lhe cost of hauling would practically balance off the amount that would be saved by ex changing his seed for meal. It would have to be a pretty long haul of a ton of cotton seed that would balance off the value of 1,150 pounds of meal gained by swapping the ton of seed fora ton of meal. At pres ent prices ($90 per ton) of cotton meal the 1150 pounds would be worth about $17.25. How far may a farmer haul a ton of seed and a return load of a ton of meal for $17.25—40 miles and back? R. J. Redding. Griffin, Ga. COTTON SEED VS. COTTON SEED MEAL " • K may be a little lac. but not alto gether, to call the attention of farm ers, |o the importance of exchanging the bulk of their cotton seed or cot- Son seed meal, instead of using the seed for manure or even for feed ing to cattle. It has been proven time and again that it is very bad policy to use cotton seed directly as a manure, and the argument is even sironyer. if possible, against the practice since the market price of ned has gone up to a much higher lerd than usual. It is even doubtr foltf. at present prices of cotton meal, the farmers can afford to use that as a fertilizer. It is clear pro- Mitkm that it was not advisable Mt season to do so. It has always keen true that no fanner could af- Herd to use cotton for any other pur pose than as a feed stuff for cattle, as he had hungry cattle on Ms farm. It is a matter of simple •foliation that nitrate of soda and mane other nitrogenous fertilizers mere much less expensive sources of flftrogen than was cotton meal, and this held good throughout the entire of purchasing and formulat- : fertilizers for use on the farm. I no informationihat will enable to forecast the market prices of aitrate, dry blood, tankage this sea son, hut it is not a difficult matter $o estimate the value of a ton of cot ton seed meal in pounds of nitrate of aoda or pounds of high grade (14 per cent.) dry blood, or other standard nitrogenous substance suitable for use as an ingredient of a fertilizer. Nitrate of 8*>da is perhaps the most uniform in its content of nitrogen of any of the nitrogenous fertilizering ingredients. It varies very little from a content of 15,75 per cent, of nitrogen. High grade blood may be put at 14 per cent of nitrogen, al though some of it runs as low as 12 per cent, or less. Let’s see: To start with cotton meal mu't be credited with about 2 1-2 per cent, of available phosnhoric acid and 1 1-2 per cent, of potash, to gether with about $.‘150. So then . one ton of nitrate every ton of high- farmers l nion, both county and in grade cotton meal carrier about $:? 50 I the locals. This will be done at the worth of phosphoric aiidand potash. | county meeting, the first Saturday Su^h a grade of meal contains at>o , j n [j ecem | :)<?r aru j a t tn<. first regular about 7 per cent, of nitrogen, which ...... giv, s it its chief value.

On October 12. the death angel entered our home and took from us our precious little McCants. He was this 7 per cent, as a ba-ds, then one ton of nigh-grade meal wiij supply 140 pounds of nitrogen. On the other hand & ton of nitrate of soda at 15.75 per cent, of nitrogen would supply 315 pounds of nitrogen, or 35 pounds more than twice as much as the nitrogen supplied by a ton of cotton meal. This 25 pounds of nitrogen may be put at about «5 50 So, then, one ton of nitrate of soda would be equal (in nitrogen) to two tons of cotton meal, plus about $3 50 excess. But the two tons of cotton meal contains about $7 worth of phosphoric acid and potash, enough to wipe out the $5.50 and leave $3.50 as representing the exeesa in ferti lizing value of two tom of meals over the fertilizing value of one ton of nitrate. The following equation expresses it: Two tons of cotton meal equal one ton nitrate, pirn $3.50. If we put the coat of nitrate at $50 per ton, or 21-2 cents per pound, the $3.50 would pay for 140 pounds of nitrate. We will then be able to state the value of cotton meal in pounds of nitrate of soda as follows: Two tons of cotton meal equal one ton and 140 pounds of nitrate, or one ton of cotton meal equals 1,070 pounds of nitrate, or 100 pounds of cotton meal equals 5.35 pounds of nitrate. We mav transpose the statement as follows: One ton, plus 140 pounds nitrate, equals 4,000 pounds cotton meal, and 1,070 pounds nitrate equals 2,000 pounds of cotton meal, and 100 pounds nitrate equals lb7 pounds of cotton meal, anil 100 pounds nitrate, at 2 1-2 cents p *r pound would be ' rest in Sandy I tarn Cemetery equal in fertiliz'ng \a'ue to 187 j M . pounds of cotton meal, worth (at 1 on , y‘ ar ' 1-2 cents per pound $2 80. | rcst * The same methods may be employ- ” e ed, and with even more accuracy, in | How to Cure Chronic Corns and Bronchitis Blucvale, Ont, May 4, 1910. “I was sick for two years w ith a chronic cold and bronchitis and a consequent run-down condition. I received no benefit from doctors, and had to give up work. VINOL was recommended and from the sec ond bottle I commenced to improve — I gained in weight and strength my cold and bronchial trouble dis appeared, and I am at work again. I want to recommend VINOL to anyone who is in need of such a medicine.”—Thomas Hiogins. It is the combined action of the curative elements of the cods’ livers aided by the blood making and strength creating properties of tonic iron contained in VINOL which makes it so successful in curing stubborn colds and bronchitis. VINOL is a constitutional rem- » edy for chronic coughs, colds, bron chitis and pulmonary troubles, not a palliative like cough syrups. Try a bottle of VINOL. * If you don’t think it helped you, we will return your money. JOHN kl KLEIN. Druggist, Walterboro. S. C. DEATH OF MGCANTS SANDERS.

He was sick only three days and all that loving hands and hearts c;u!d do was done for him, but to no avail. The Lord saw fit to take him from our midst and His will must be done. Blessed be the name of the Lord. He leaves a father, mother and two little brothers and a host of relatives and friends to mourn their loss.

According to analysis and abundantly confirmed by field ex periments conducted under my di rection at the Georgia experiment station, 50 pounds of high grade cotton meal are the equivilent (for fertilizing purposes) of 2,000 pounds of sound cotton seed. At the oil mill a fanner may . exchange his 2,000 pounds of cotton seed for 2,000 pounds of meal, a saving of 1;50 pounds of meal, less cost of hauling the seed and meal, as compared with the practice of using the ton of seed as a fertilizer. There is no room for the argument. Every abjector that has been urged has been met in previous articles such as the fertilizing value of the hulls and the humus that these add to the soil. A farmer can just as well afford to use cheap hay as a fertilizer as cot ton hulls. 4 It has been claimed that the oil has fertilizer value. Even if this claim were true (which it is not) a 'farmer could not afford to use oil worth 6 or 8 cents a pound for such • Purpose. all love thee well, loves thee 1**^, !
