Working our farms with "standing
-wages hands" Is fait becoming a tbli g
of the past, aays the Southern Cultivator,
The greater part of our negroes
much prefer to work on whan*
as they term It or to rent the land
The majority of our farmers have
been very la* in their methods of
making contracts. A meie verbal
agrem^nt was entered Into, whereby
the landlord was to furnish so many
aores of land to be ou)tlv?.t*d on
Sharon, or for bo many pound*
Of lint cotton. Very few landlords
have any definite understanding
as how this land Is to be kept up;
how fertilized; how plowed and oultt
vated and wtiat crops were to be
planted. The idea hau been for the
negro to plant and make all the cot
too pissibe and this was all. Now
we tain* the time has arrived for a
radloil change and according to our
bes* judgement, it bhouia be eiecuteo

1. There should be a written con
tract. The negro la free, and while
the majority do nothing but abuse
this freedom, still we had as well be
gin to adjust cur methods to this oou
ditlon and treat with him asa free
agent, but put proper ard necessary
restrict Ion* upon him. Mo one oan
enter upen a contract with another
without assuming certain oondltlcns,
and these ondltious should be clearly
set forth and their fulfillment duly
demanded. #
2. Trie preservation of the sail
should bo demanded and a forfeit for
all failure to keep up terraoes and
sujb safeguards fully agreed upon.
3. Soma system looking to the rota
don of orops should also bo demanded
4. Just how much was to be furnls
led as tho work on the crop prog
rssed should also bo clearly set
fo th.
If any one oan suggest other or offe*
a better form of contract our ool
u nns arc open to them. We so often

plaint of tho unsatisfactory oondlMer
o* negro laoor. Now the qurs Ion
(am UJh/. I- ?~l 1 ?? " '
* moo, it uu in KUiUK lAi I Ult' r II we
t imely suomlt wo will certainly bo
run over,
We may have more or lest clash by
undertaking to have a rational agreement,
but as we conceive It, 'tis ours
to dictate the terms, and theu It Is
left with thorn to acoept or not. The
sooner we begin some rational sys
tern, the better for both parties. Wo
are fully aware there are many far
mars of that forceful oharaoter that
imply rule on their premises, and.
the* have been enabled to get along
well, but others are not constituted
this way and they suffer.
The strong should help the weak,
and those who cin do without a writ
ten contract, sh uld ust oue to help
their nelghbcra. All other oountrles
have a system aud we must have one,
too If we wish the best results In our
farm operations. We admire the
example of Mr. J. 0. Strlbllng, of
Pendleton, 8. 0. He says no tenant
can stay on Lis land who will not
agree to sow down one third of his
land every year, or oarry out a regu
iar three year rotation of grain, corn
and cotton. This Is zood business; 1
In tbeend It will be b3nedolal to Mr
strlbllng, to his land and to the ne- .
gro tenant.
Of course, our negro laborrrs are ,
going to get worte and worse each
year as long as we submit to
their trilling and careless wars. It
Is simply a question of who is goiDg
to dictate terms We do not advo 1
cats wronging the negro In any way,
but If we are to dwell together In unity
and for the upbuiding of ouragrlcul 1
tural Interest, then we must begin a
more rational and ex&otlng system of
demands upon them for tho proper '
carrying out all labor oontraots.
We call upon all our readers not to {
m?"*e trades for another year without
a written contract and put it in then
how they are to Improve the land ;
about terraoes, rooks, stumps, gullies, ;
galled spots and what they are to
pl&nt and how 4hey* are to cultivate
it. It Is a little trouble, but it will 1
pay both ways?It w 11 pay In oalllng
your attention more closely to the
needs of your land, and It will pay in
getting the negro to do some better. '
We do not claim it will be a "royal
road;" there will be mauy otrstaolee to
overcome; but It Is oertalnlv a road
leading In the right direction.
Got Hie Well Ouk,
An Irishman took a contract to dig
a well. When he had dug about twenty
feet down, he oame one morning
and found that the well had fallen in
and was filled to the top. Pat looked
oautlously around and saw no one was
nmr, he then took off his hat and coa <
a id nung mem on the windlass, and
crawled Into some bushes and waited
events. In a abort time the neighbors
discovered that the well bad fallen in,
and seeing Pal's hat and coat on the
windlass supposed that he was at tht
bottom of the excretion. A few i
hours of digging cleared the loose 1
earth from the well. Just as the ex <
oavatora bad reached the bottcm and
were wcnderlng where the body was. 1
Pat came out of the bushes and good <
naturedly thanked the diggers for re
lleving him of his sorry Job. '

"South Carolina's oil mills wer<
nover m >re prosperous," said one of
the leading ootton seed crushers of the
state to a Columbia R?oord man re
o- ntly. "The same thing might bf
* id," he added, "of the mills through
out the South."
Good time for the mills means tremendous
enhancement of the wealth
p oduotionof 1 he oommunity, and h
tatoment will be welcomed noocdingly.
No industry in tl e South amounts
to more and Is talked about less Just
how vital the bualners is to Southern
prosperity may be realized from a
summary of the information remain
ing with The Record man after along
conversation with the orusher quoted.
"There are," he said, "about eight
hundred ootton seed oil mills ard ootton
oil refineries located In the South.
Of these, about seventy five are owned
by Eastern, Norther > and Western
stockholders. One co pany, a ma
Jorlty of whose stock^' h orb, and all
of whose executive (.ttioors, are South
ern men, owns about ninety p ants.
The balance, over six hundred, are
owned by lecal people, many thou
sands of whom are farmers.
"To the South, thorofore, belongs
a large part of the development of this
wonderful industry, and the profits,
when any are mado, are divided
among the people who either product
the ootton, or whose Interests are
Hen titled with those of the cot toe
grower.
"It Is th" manufacturing in
dustry that ucuhor a ks nor receives
national or state protection or subsidy;
that totes Its own sktlW; that
for years returned to the farmers fron
75 to 100 per ODt. of the gross valu<
of its prodnotu after paying cash foi
the raw material and the cost of pro
ductlon. It feeds both man and b.asand
helps to clothe the human family
It is the single American Industry
that ha>? survived fore gn and dom- s
tic 'pposltlcn without 't-quealing,' anc
yet as bad, or now has toe olive grow

is brilliant with go d deeds and it*work
is only Just beginning. Its pro
milters and tuosa who have given yean
tolls development, may well be proud
of its achievements, and remembering
the ditlloulties it has overcome, and
the bright future before It, they carIgnore
the few opponents that are
still loft at home and abroad, as they
out no more figure now than the 11 y on
the ox's horn."
Discussing the value of cottonseed,
formerly a waste product, he said thoy
are now used, principally, for plant*
Ing, mlling, feeding stook or fertil z
log crops.
"About eight per oent. of the seed
orop," he stated, "Is needed for
planting purposes, amountirg on the 1
acreage of 11)06 06, to about 405,000 j
tons. The total promotion of seed,
n a basla of the orop of 1006 06, at J
000 pounds of seed to the b ile of oot .
ton, was 6,130,000 tone. Deducting
the amount for planting left 4,725,880
tons for other uses. It appears
from the government reports that
about 3,500,000 tons were crushed at
the oil mills during the same year, or
about seventy per cent, of the Beed
Available over and above that necessary
for planting purposes.
'Tt Is generally known that while
bhe seed has a oertaln feeding value,
it dots not compare with the feeding
value of meal and hulls, the latter r
being In far better meohanical condi- 8
Hon. Besides, when seed aro fed to .
jattle, or put under crop**, It entails
in enormous loss of the ootton seed a
products which should be ssved. Ii
"The fertil zing value o seed In a
3onliued almost entirely to the *
imount of meal contained In It. Ab 3
this averages from 776 to 826 pounds, $<
it is evident that every pound over n
that quantity In a ton of 2,000
pounds is almost wasted v hen used e
for fertilizing the land Instead of be t
log orushed by the mills. e
"The mill* will generally "xohange 0
meal and hulla for seed with the /
farmer on a basis that will make ii &
tar better for the farmer to do this
than to feed them to stock t r use the \
seed for fertilising the soil. s
"if the seed are crushed at the t
mills, the ohlef produot Is a high i
tfrade material, and the b;r products i
surpass any ether stook fee '. a
1 Not over about seventy per c nt. c
of the surplus seed are oonvertt d Jat( c
oil mill produot, hut If All the rte c
exclusive of what Is needed for plant- *
leg were crushed, the grotB com mar- t
olal value would be double the valu- <
of the raw seed used In ar y other way, <;
and would Increase the value of tho
South'? procuc s from this source
alone about 160 000 000. In addition
to this, nearly 13.000,000 would be 1
paid out in wages by the mills, practically
all of which would be dlsturs <
ed In the South where the seed an '
produced."

RAILROAD MVRORR SUIT
??
AgalDtt the Southern Rillwtj Will
Be Beard In Jenaerj.
The Columbia Slate says Ibe suit
brought by Iba Stale of Soulb Carolina
against the Souiharn railway, al
ls?ing a violation of the constitution
of Ibe State by the railway company
in leasing the old Soulb Carolina and
Georgia railroad and its extenslor
from K'ngville to Marion, N. 0., la
down on the roster for the present
week of the civil oourt to be tried Sat
urday. But the bearing will not be
gin at Ibis time as Ibe attorneys engaged
on both sides held a conference
of Nov. 12 at which it was agreed
that it should be htard at a apeolal
Wm of court to be bald by Judgs
Memmlnger in January
Several years sgo tha Southern ae
quired the South Carolina and Geor
gla railway and its oonneciionH b#
lease. The charter of the Southern
under Its requirements, prescribes tha
it s iall oonstruet a line to Charleston.
This baa not been d^ne and the ac
qnlrement of the already established
line is construed as the purchase or
leans of a oompetlng line of railway.
Three years sgo the leglslatuit pawed
a j int resolution authorizing the
attorney general to bring suit againat
the Southern, testing the alleged vlo j
laticn. and to emnlov the necessary I
council to assist Id the prosecution or
the o&se. Several of the strongest at
torneys in the State were employed
and the suit was begun by the late
Attorney General U. X. Gunter anci
it was brought lu Kershaw county.
Last year, by the agreement of all the
counsel interested, an order was lasued
tranaferlng the hearing to Rlohland
county. The oaae has never
been heard as the only time it was
ever called for a hearing it was oonttn
usd at the request of the attorneys for
the railroad.
The trial of the oase and Its result
art awaited with much interest by all
who are conversant with the sltua
tion. It is stated by the cflclals of
the Southern that there are many improvements
amounting in money to a
large </ure that are being held in
abeyance awaiting the settlement of
the oaae. It is said by those on
other side that this is being used &s a
ever to induce a favorab'e settlement
of the oase for the railroads.

The Bamberg Herald says: "It is
said that Dantzler, the Orangeburg
negro, Is preparing to again oontest
the scat of Congressman Lam. The
only thing in these contests Is tha
fees allowed by congress. and that is
wiat Dantzler and his negro lawyer -j
are after. In faot, we have little
djubt but that the lawyer, Mcorer, is
the prime mover in this contest busin)si.
A stout buggy trace properly
a1nolDt?t^^<)wou'd be the best means
of sto? pflfthls sort of 'graft, * and
we commend it to the white pec pie of
O'tngeburg." We fully agree with
The Herald in everything it says in '
the above paragraph except the suggestion
about the use of the "stout"
buggy traoo prcporly administered.
Such region w aid be harled with delight
by the red mouthed Republicans
of the North and do Orangeburg and
the whole State grea* harm. Dantzler
and his lawyer really do ao harm in j
their contest, and if the Republicans i
ia uoutress to choulato a few
thousand dollars through them election
grafters we can stand It. CJonirrgsmaD
