?? ??M??????t THE ADVOCA .'E. Published Every Wednesday . ] JOHN BELLTOWILL, Editor ...August 20 ... . llatesburg's outlook for u good business season seems brighter now than ever. The new ginnery will induce more business to come, to our town, *nd more money will be in circulation. We are coming up surjly. It is an unusual thing in this Slate for farmers to begin to study scientifically the subject of ^oil-preparing and soil-cultivating. The meeting of ?>ver 600 farm irs at Cletnsnn College last week needs no explanation save that the farmers of our State are thoroughly aroused to the benefit to be derived from expert fertilizing, and from every side which will render better products. From the various reports that we can gather in scanning the newspapers the tobacco crop in the eastern part of our State "cenif to be of a better grade than usual, judging by the high prices that are being paid. The great question for our people to solve is the raising of more t han one murket product. We in the peach region have long ago realized that necessity. The school question at Butesburg now j s an absorbing one. We are not content to lend our imaU force to the betlering of school conditions in our community, but we want others to feci a tangible interest in the provision of better school facilities. You can take itasa fact that whenever interest in education at a place is at its heighth, that place is bound to succeed in every other line. We have the nl?ns rwnlv lor a good school; we now want i'oiicerted action. i 'l'hal l". X. (Junter will be elected as onr next Attorney (Jeneral, no one need doubt, lie has conducted a manly campaign and deserves well from the people of his home. Recognizing lis right to the otlicc he seeks, by virtue of hard work, with a successful rec-rd. coupled with the fact that iie is our > boy, one whoui we have a just right to JS j ?... oi-ninl nf. let evrrv ballot have (inn ? ?> u. v II , B free from s< In M vance we join friends hearty congratulations!! Afler the weary march of almost three months over every county of our State, the campaigners of both sections will wind up their work this week. The campaign presents the rema.-kable condition of no difference as to issues involved, hence the selection of the officers for the various places will be controlled largely by personal popularity and ability to fill I lie position. Many men, who nave gained something ^ of a nam - as prophets, have admitted that many of the political nlumu ii>?^ year are us jet unphicked?it mo..is' that no candidates h ve won any de-| aided ei conragcineut. To campaign forty counties and to attend many extra meetings testify to the physical and mental exertion ncce siry f< r si c'i a method of winning .. nomination. 1 We donht not that this campaign has been the producer of yet unseen! changes ill our primary system. _______________________________ The campaign is over and the various candidates are waiting to know the decision of the white voters of South' Carolina, it is needless for us to say anything in behalf of the candidacy of I)r. Tiuimermaii, for his record as nu otlieial ir. various capacities is well known, hi- high chui actt r and nohility of soul has hcen testified to by every one of his O) poneiits Tin* high plane oil which he has conducted his cam-1 pnign is admitted by all. entire y free from appeal to prejudice or passion Not one of his < pponen'.s have given ev 'deneu of clearer endcrstanding of the vital issues, or a more thorough knowledge of the fourth ns of govern inent. It goes wit hunt Miyinjf that the Vote in this sccl'on wi 1 prneti?~ully he 1 ho lid for our li noted and helowd fellow citizen, who as Governor of our , j proud ccinmnnwrcalt It, would rellect credit and honor aid command the! e i.fidencc of every iti/.en, as widi iis 1 those abraad.

( / - > ?? v " " ? GAINING GROUND. l%tA Neighbor'* Writes of j His Gratification at Dr. Timmerman's Gain of Ground. Mr. Editor:- It is very gratifying for me to learn that, for aavcrul Dr. \V. U. Tiuimeruiau has ihvii gaining ground ia )iIh canvass lor tin* Governorship. We may well despair of the Republic, whenever it shall be demonstrated that, in t hnoslug between candidates for otllce the people will value "the gift of gab'* more highly than tho superior intelligence, valuable experience and lofty character. All of these latter i>r, Tintinerinau undoubtedly has. That he possesses an intelligence of a high order none will deuy. His experience in the atVuirs of State has been exceedingly varied. He served four years in the House of Reprtsontatives. He served four years in the Senate. He served nearly four years as President pro tempore of the Senate and as Lieutenant Governor. He certainly, then, ought to know something about the operations of the legislative department of the State?a very important thing for a Governor to know. Resides all ?his, he served four years as State Treasurer. Ho ought, therefore, to k: ow thoroughly the Hnnu-isil affairs ? * the State?the most important th'og of all for h Governor to understau I. As to high character I>r. Timmer?nau is the -cpial of any man that ever lived. Neither in business, nor in his domestic relation, nor even in his politics lias he ever been known to do a dishonorable act. No matter what may he said of the other candidates for the Governorship, no One will be found to charge l>r V?r. 11. Timmerman vv ith any sort of dishonor. His good character, however, is not niciely negative. He lias always dej lighted in acts of positive benevoI lence For forty years, he has given { so freely to his church and his scnool | that his worst enemy would not dare ! to call in question his great liberality. j Twenty?five years ago before guano I was generally used the people in the | country around l>r, Tinimerman's old homo wore nor as independent in i money matters as they are now. In ! fact, most of them were poor. It wan I at that period that 1 > r. Tim merman'? generosity was of most bene fit to the community, llis highest charges for nedieal services were exceedingly | Moderate. He has saved many poor uien from bankruptcy and despair by ! giving them at critical times doctor's ; bills that otherwise would, for vears, I have hung like millstones around their necks. For years lie employed excellent teachers, boarded them, paid th-mi out of bis own pocket, and sent them and his cliiHtcti ton school house two miles Y- T-ii i?/II? e t.? ' -i - ? W * ' frigv "t'rff, #t bors were invited to send to the school, and such as felt ab'e paid fortheactual time their ehildrcn were in attendance. Although, in this way. most of the expens.* of the school was borne by Dr. Timiiierinan, not one word of complaint ever fell from his lips. In the course of a h ug life. Dr. Timmermnn lias saved Ins neighbors thousands of dollars liydrawi ig up papers and transacting all sorts of legal Imsir.e-s for J them without eh ir.,o. The poorest man in the community knew lliat lie could look with confidence to Dr. Timlin rinan for encouragement aml|iid in ! evei yI liing that was good. When one was mi tort 1111:1 Ii?^ was helped accord- I ing to hi." need. when a miter wantoil to buy a bouse lie was given kindly assistance. And all of this was dot e without the slightest suggestion of dcmagngism. It was done not to gain the praises of men. but as a duty; for it is well known that, when it is proper. l>r. Tiimnermnn has never hesitated to administer rej .u.f. About twenty years ago, a certain white tear, who rented a throe-horse farm from 1 ?r. '1 immeruian made a complete failure in a crop. After gathering the little he did make he look his tlue- horses to I >r.

" ?... inuhii v?n miu money uui of Cattle. The Best Food Rijht at Home. What makes the price of beef so f high? The price of anything la high * either because the demand outstrips the supply, or because of some combl- * nation of dealers to artificially raise tthe price. t Hut whether a price Is naturally or 11 artificially high, the remedy Is the <] same?greater production on an lnde- c pendent basis. Fortunately foi con- j sumers of beef, and fortunately for the southern farmer, there Is no trust or * combination that can prevent a most 1 lavish production of beef. If only the t way Is pointed out. r The breeding of cattle on a farm, at a least In an unsystematic manner. Is natural and almost spontaneous. But .. In the absence of some systematic way to follow up the subject, and select the j proper animals, and care for them | through the winter, and finally prepare j them to make fat, tender beef, there | is no proper beef production on the ' il farm. The farmer In the cotton region j is surrounded with all the elements to I make beef raising successful. The i climate is such that there Is natural ; ' forage most of the year. It requires . \v just u little forethought to provide for . y the few winter months. The mate- I rial?cheap material?Is always at p hand, cotton seed meal and cotton seed j ' hulls. The meal and hulls are offered j just as you want them by the Southern Cotton Oil company, of the Carolina.1) I " and Georgia, and may be bought at any of the local mills or from head- ! quarters at Columbia, S. C., Atlanta, j fla.. Savannah, Oa., or Charlotte, N. C. Mixed in the proper proportion. I this makes the most nutritious uiul acceptahlc feed that is now available. It Is a feed, which by varying the propor- j V tions will answer equally well for a sustaining ration or for a fattening j j, ration. It contains all the Inirredlent* I of nutrition, n&ntely. fut, nitrogen and / carbohydrates. The cotton seed meal , *contains tat and nitrogen and the hull : contains carbohydrates. i fti A good sustaining ration Is made up al of 24 pounds of hulls and 4 pounds of <) meal per day, and a good fattening ration Is 20 pounds of hulls and 6 ? pounds of meal. These proportions In both cases must be varied to suit in- i " dividual cases, according to tbe con- j ditlon and taste of the animal. In fattening cattle, the ration should be- 1 y gin with more bulls and leas meal and the proportion of meal gradually In- I creased. A steer may he fattened ana put in good condition for tli market 1 on 400 pounds of cotton seed meal and one ton of hulls. At average prices. , the < ost of this feed In the southern t,, States would he about If.00.
