HIGH GRADE LOAM' What is Best For Piedmont Clays - - Nitrogen and Potash Needs Clemson College, Feb. 23.?Before the boll weevil came it was not so necessary for us to study the fertilizer needs of our particular soils for cotton as it is now. Our present economic conditions also make it necessary that we make as much profit as possible from every dollar invested in commercial fertilizer. A great many farmers have been nuyir.g a*i I applying the mixtures recommended by fertilizer salesman without regard to their soil types and soil conditions; but for 1922 under boll weevil conditions if we are to make a profit growing cotton it is necessary that we study economical crop production. A man who uses no fertijizer for cotton in 1922 will make a serious mistake; however, it should be used judiciously, considering prices of separate carriers compared with ready mixed goods, soil type, soil condition resulting from past treatment, and the crop to he grown. So advices the agronomy division in m.aking the following brief recommendations for "fertilizing cotton in 1922. l'or Poor Sandy Coastal Lands On average poor sandy land in the coastal plains the following, which analysis 8-4-2 is recommended at the rate of liOO pounds per acre. 1,000 lbs. percent phosphate. 400 lbs. 7 per cent cottonseed meal (or equivalent in blood.) 300 lbs. IX per cent nitrate of soda (or equivalent in ammonium sulphate.) 300 lbs. 12 per cent kainit (or equivalent ?n muriate.) A side dressing of 100 pounds per .acre of nitrate of soda should be apnlie 1 not b'ter than when first squares begin to form. Following a heavy growth of cowpeas, vol vets or soys plowed under tho previous fall and well rotted the following is recommended: 1.200 lbs. 0 per cent acid phosphate. 400 lbs per cent n'trate of soda. 400 lbs. 12 per cent kainit. This would analyze 8-3-2 and should be applied 500 pounds per acre. No sido dressing will be needed usualK, but one third of the soda m.ay be held back for side dressing. For Ili^b Grade Lr?aio Lands On high grade loams and sandy loams that do not rust cotton tho following mixture, 500 pounds per mto is suirirestod: GOO U)s. 10 per conl acid phosphate. 300 lbs. 7 per cent cottonseed moai. 150 'bs. IS pe r cent nitrate of soda. \ side dressing of To to 100 pounds of nitrate of soda should be applied. On those soils following; :x heavy crop of well rotted coupons, velvets or soys, a mixture made of 300 pounds of 10 per cent acid phosphate and 100 pounds of IX per cent nitrate of soda per aero is recommended, without any side dre sing. For Piedmont Clays arcl Clay Loans On elavs and clay loams of the Piedmont that do not rust cotton, 500 pounds pei* acre of the following with side dre-ving of 10 to 100 per cent of nitrate are recommendod: 000 lhs. H> per cent acid phosphate. 300 lhs. 7 nor cent cottonseed meal. 150 lhs. IS per cent nitrate of soda. On such soils, following heavy grow?.h of well lotted legumes 400 pounds pei* acre of the following is suggested, with no side dressing: 1 . 'M0 lbs. 16 per cent atfid phosphate. 400 lbs. 18 per eent nitrate of soda. Nitrogen and Potash Needs. Enough ammonia is needed under cotton to prevent stunting and give a quick growth at the start, hut an excessive use of nitrogen will delay maturity of cotton and give the weevil a better chance. You had better take your $20 bills and light cigars with them than put them into nitrate of soda or other nitrogenous fertilizer to apply to your cotton late in the season under boll weevil condi tions. Where soils tend to ruse cotton, enough potash is needed to give a heavy st.alk and strong lint, but excess of potash will also delav maturity. , o To Cure a Cold In One Day fake LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE (Tablets.)

' i'. i It has been found that many grants ' fpr land lying in this section carried I in addition "Lot No .'..in the town of Kingston." Sometime about 1730 or a few years later, a surveyor Vi'a's selected to lay out a township in what is now called Horry county, then called Kingston. On March 16. 17X3. ?hifnfno , ? - ? J VVO II V Large, Vol. 4, page 5GG, an act of the General Assembly for South Carolina was passed appointing commissioners to divide several districts into counties. Section 37 of the act authorized and required the commissioners to lay out the lots iu a town in Prince George 1 to he known by the name of Kings- ! ton. I have made diligent search in the office of the Secretary of State in ' Columbia for a copy of the plat of Kingston town, but have been unable to find it. There is no doubt, however, that a I survey was made even before that I date and at least some lots laid out. j In 1787 Robert Conway obtained from the state a grant for a tract of 'and on Kingston Lake and Waccamaw River covni m:- the present site of Conway ar.d also the site of the origini'l colonial town called Kingston. In fact, th^ belief is general that the survey of the two towns is ident ical. When Robert Conway, in 1801, conveyed to the commissioners of the town of Conway, the land granted to him he reserved Lot No. 135. So ol course it must have been laid out into lots before lie made his deed to Hie commissioners, and it is reasonable to suppose that as this area had once been ca'led Kingston, Lot No. 13.> was the parcel marked by that number on the plat of the town of Kingston. The town In id out, or rather technically laid out by the commissioners under the Robert Conway deed, was called Con waybovough and continued to be caMed by thai name until 1883, when the name was changed to Conway by act of General Assembly. So. Conway under the present .and former name- ha- been a town for more than 150 rears. RORT. B. SCARBOROUGH. PROFIT IN POULTRY Girls and bovs in the homo domnn- 1 striil ion clubs of South Carolina arc making their own money by moans of poultry, canning and similar wavs. Alton B. Smith, of the Millers' club, in Marion county, made a clear profit of $05 on his flock >f Barred Bocks. Alton sold ten settings of eggs at *2.50 rvich, besides selling some of his best fowls. Olive M. Moody of the Bermuda' Poultry Ciub of Oillon county, reports' i profit of $112.2") on her flock ofj Orpingtons. Besides selling eggs and ' chickens, the fanvly table was kept supplied with poultry product ?. Thelma Miller, a '2-year old n.emiter of the Poplar Spring's Poultry i C-u!> of Spartan! urg county, pur- j chased a pen of pure bred Barred Rocks, set pure bred eggs and raised) a total of 7 1 birds. Thelma sold 14 J dozen eggs, 2 ! fowls, won four prizes j .at the county fair, and has a v?<rd; full of fine birds to begin the new | year's work. Her profit for last year,! ni'for deducting expenses, amounted to ?9x.G5. Geneva Langford, a nielPand county poultry club membor living at I Bly the wood, raised White Rocks. Her! j sales from fowls and eggs amounted 1 o .>12<>.8f>. Geneva won $10 in prizes! on her best birds <.t the fair. A flock of about seven'v-'ivo bpas is in the y.ard for beginning another >ear of] successful woi'K. These are only a few of the many splendid records made by poultry club members last year. o I)() IT NOW I expect to pass through this world but once.
