WATSON REVIEWS TOBACCO SEASON *MALLEST CROP BROUGHT LAR GEST CASH RECEIPTS. MARKETS. PALMETTO CAPITOL NEWS *0eneral News of South Carolina Col. lected and Condensed From The State Capital That Will Prove of Interest to All Our Readers. Columbia. The state department of agricul %ture, commerce and industries made ,public the annual report for the year 1916 on the number of pounds of to bacco grown and marketed in this state. In speaking of the result of the 1916 tobacco season, Commisioner Watson saIld: "The department, under the law, be gan to keep records of the tobacco .crop in 1909. That year very nearly 28,000,000 pounds of tobacco were raised, but the price was low, and it brought but little over $2,250,000. *The two following years the croy do -creased very considerably in both volume and amount of money -'ro -duced. Then for four years consecu tively the volume of the crop steadily increased, until the maximum was reached in 1914, the year the war broke out. The preceding year a smaller crop bad sold at 12.77 cents per pound, bringing to the farmers $4,584,000, the greatest amount ever received from the tobacco crop in this state. In 1914 the price fell, and in 1915, while people still planted tobacco, and raised a big crop, the amount received from it was only $2,765,372, the price having fallen to the lowest figure recorded since 1909, 7.02 cents per pound. The total number of pounds raised last year was 37,995, 284. "This year, with a crop of only 20, 079,903 pounds, the smallest crop, with the exception of those of 1910 and 1911, the price went to a higher -fgure than ever before, 14.11 cents, and has brought to the farmers $2, 313,448.87. This year the crop was marketed early and there were po 'October sales at all. "During the season 22 markets were operated. Lake City led in the mat ter of pounds marketed, with Mullins a close second, but Mullins-led all the markets of the state by very nearly $100,000 in the amount received from the sale of tobacco, Lake City coming second and Timmonsville third." Phosphate Rock Show Decrease. Special from Washington.-The United State geological survey made public operations in the phosphate in dustry during the year 1915 in the United States. Phosphate rock marketed in the U.nited States in 1915 amounted to 1,835,667 long tons valued at $5,413,. -449. Compared with the production in 1914, which was 2,734,048 long tons, valued at $9,608,041, this was a de erease of 893,378 long tons, or nearly 38 per cent, and in value $4,194,592, or nearly 44 per cent. The production of phosphate rock in South Carolina in 1915 was 83,460 long tons, valued at $310,860, This was a decrease of 23,469 tons, or 22 per cent in quantity, and of $104,189, or 25 per cent in value, compared with the output of 1914. Only laud rock was mined and marketed, no river reck having been produced for several years. The output of the state in 1915 constituted 4.5 per cent of that of the entire country. With the beginning of the war in Elurope shipments of rock almost en tirely stopped and the great demand for sulphuric acid in 1916 is another reason the industry has shown a do crease County Agents are Busy. Fairfield County-One farmer sold1 .$475 worth of bur clover seed and will make a bale of cotton to the acre en the same land. Orders placed for over 3,700 pounds of crimson clover seed t ego on 6 different farms, Charleston County-Several farms have as much as 100 acres in velvet beans. Abbeville County-Seven thousand pounds of crimson clover seed have already been delivered and 1,500 pounds more are ordered. Some farm ers are planning to crush pod and bean of the velvet bean and use in place of cottonseed meal. Two dem onstration acres of corn, one on whioh 20 loads of stable manure was used and one on which no fertilizer was utsed by corn was planed after crim son clover, when compared as to yield, showed that the latter acre was the best, Laurens County-Cotton planted June 2 after crimson clover was bet ter than cotton planted two weeks earlier on which a side dressing of 10 pounds of nitrate of soda was used. Orders have been placed for ever 12 tons of clover seed. Some idea of the varied work that the county farm demonstration agents are (Ioing in the various sections of the state may be gained from the following brief summary of activities. in half a dozen counties as reported by Celmson cilloge: Union County-Orders placed for jhrae cars of rock phosphate.
