Legumes Most Come First In Soil
Building.
Six years ago I plowed four acres
of level land about eight inches
deep and planted it to corn. The
land was so much worn that I soon
saw tho crop would almost bc a fail
ure. Crimson clover seed was broad
casted on the Boil just before tho last
cultivation, one peck to the acre. A
good stand was obtained. Next year
clover seed was cut '.rom this crop
and si u'hie turned under and cow
peas driltiMl into tho soil. This crop'
was mow'.d off for t.xy and tho anil
thc.ougbly prepared for wheat by
us! ig the spring-it.-:.i htrrow.
Wheat waa drilled into tito soil in
the fail with 200 pounds of phosphate
per acre. Thew heat made a good
crop-almost twice as good as usual
ly had been grown. An excellent
stand of grass waa obtalnod with de
whoat, the seed of which waa sown in
tho fall. The hay cut from this land
the following year waa a splendid
yield. Now' then it seems to me tho
clover seed obtained more than paid
tor that originally purchased, and tho
cowpe? hay well paid for tho cost of
sowing tho cow pea aeod. besides the
excellent crop of hay obtained and
tho incroasod fertility or the soil,
which make an additional asset Clo
ver was sown on tba ground in thc
spring following the seeding of the
wheat ot maintain the fertility. This
concrete example ls given to demon
strate what can be done.
Of course fertility can be largely
saved by hauling out all manures as
they are made and spreading them
on the land, hut thia will not cover
all the land quick enough and must
he supplemented by the nae of legum
inous crops, basic slag and, perhaps,
lime.
It seems to me, therefore, judging
from actual experience, that a safe
foundation for Increased soil fertility
ia the os? ot (1) leguminous erops,
(2) basic slag or a similar fertilizer,
and Cl) more Block on tho farm.-It.

SPLENDID ADDRESS
HEARD LAST NIGHT
Magnificient Appeal For Succor
. For thc Heathen of China
Made.
Thc ( vening session convened
promptly ut fight o'clock. and aile- : I
(horus by tho choir the ilevotif.it:!;
lor tho evening WUH conc?llete ? b>
Kev. W. H. Dodge or thc Cen ir? I Pres
byterian church. Thc choir gave sev
eral beautiful selections, thal win
greatly enjoyed by those present, n
was also a solo by Mr. Hani Orr 'Krib
ble.
Mr. Dodge in a lew happy, well
chosen words introduced the si raker
tor the evening, ltev. R. D. Bedingcr
or Virginia, a returned missioner;
from Africa, who Islncntcd In thc
Kauai district in Hie Belgian Congo,
Central Africa. Ho BClccted for lils
BUbject "The Joys and Sorrows of
Missionary Life." Ile said he wanted
to spca!; of :? joys and :{ sorrows. The
first was the privilege of being a
missionary mid in a Tew earnest
heartfelt words ho tried to describe
tlie unspeakable Joy of such service.
He told of :i Helglan soldier whom he
met and talked with and of this sol
dier's thrilling statement, "what a
Joy to die that way for one's country,"
and BO he compared this to thc Joy of
the missionary luart to be willing
even if necessary to die for his Lord.
Ills second Joy was the fact that lu
was a missionary to Africa, the most
neglected of all thc fields, and th i ni
the Joy of being a missionary to Just
his district, tho Kasai, so overwhelm
ing in its opportunities a?d possibili
ties.
He stated that the opportunities of
thia great country only limited by the
number of missionaries. These wen
three of the joys that made life worth
living out there. He spoke of the
three sorrows. The first was that tho
church at home does not appear to be
as eager to Bend thc workers as those
heatherns are to receive and he gave
several pitiful messages from these
dying nations begging for the word3
of life. He gave them some very
plain facts and figures, showing the
failure of tho church at home to do
their part. The second so* row is the
Inability of the small bod; of mis
sionaries to adequately carry on the
work to ita best results and achieve
ments. He paid a glowing tribute to
Mrs. Rochester, one of their best and
most efficient' nativo workers who
dlod some time ago.
He made an earnest appeal for
more men, moro workers. He told of
those waiting to go-ho pictured the
need-ho plead for thc help.
The third sorrow was tho need for
medical men to help in tho work and
for trained nursoB. He told of hund
red of miles, and no doctor. He told
many pathetic Incidents of sickness
and distress, want and poverty, with
no help, no relief. He thrilled his
healers with tho pathos and misery
ot it all. Ho told of tho terrible need
of hospitals, of doctors and trained
nurses, and then ho explained that
eight men and women were willing to
go and of the movement on foot to
send them; of thc effort being made
to raise the amount necessary.
It was a magniflcflent apeal and
touched the very deaths of the hearts
of those present. Mr. Bedingcr is a
young man of rare consecration and
earnestness of purpose and ho put his
whole heart and soul in tho message
he brought.
The program ended with a beauti
ful solo by Mra. W. J. Muldrow in
which the whole choir joined In the
choras.

BIG EXCAVATING PROJECT
Hundreds of Yards of Earth Token Off
Ne?jTo School Grounds.
An excavating project of consider
able dimensions ls.under way just now
on tho grounds of the colored graded
school on Towers street. Th0
grounds are being dug down for a
deptli of 4 or 5 feet in thc rear and
somo 3 foct in front.
The earth being taken off is being
used for filling in on property of tbe
Charleston & Western Carolina Ball
way nearby. The work has been un
.?or way for several weeks aud will
continuo fur some time yet.
Primary Points tn Pasture Making.
For emphasis, we again name what
we regard aa Gie essentials In the
making of a pasture, in the order of
their importance:
1. A fence that will confine the
animals, to be grazed and keep ou<
those which are rot desired. '
2. The removal and continued de
struction of non 'pasture planta. The
grubbing axo and the mower are aa
essential to a good pasture tu the
South as sunshine and rain are
ibnndant.
3. Thc prevention of washing or
raroslon. . Grass cannot grow in the
nuking of gullies.
4. The sowing of the seeds ot
those plants which do. best and fur
nish the beat grazing on the soils ard
ander the conditions where the pas
ture is to be made.
Many thousands of dollars have
boca wasted in the South by sowing
crass and clover seeds ot kinds not
adapted to the conditions, or without
suitable preparation of tho soil. Tbs
baals of a phature tn any eeetton
should be tho plant or plana which
ic row moat generally ard freely ia
that section, or of some plant or
plants known to do well under simi
lar conditions.
In addition to plants that are
known to make, good pastures ia the
section, or under similar conditions,
the aira should be to get such a va
riety as will secure the earliest as
troll as the latest grazing practicable.
