THE NEWSPAPER JOB 'ilraffney Ledger. A liter y genius is a man Who has he ability of sayin- the common hings of life that you know are true tnd saying them in artistic form, so hat when you hear then speak you ay: "I had thought of that but ouldn't express it in words." We 'ake the crude marble of thought. rough and indefinite in shape andi carve it into a Michelangelian angel of expression. There is a man of that type in California. He is a prche and he thought he could run a new;. paper; he tried it one day and t-i how it felt. Someone clipper -- and, handed it to us, :in entirely too good to run mj Others Say" we a. " ng tu more prom'I:, Heri . aeany people believe that a new.i paper falls together without work or concerted activity or puan. Rev. McLeod, a Presbyterian minister at Pasadena, was of the opinion. and ask ed to be allowed to edit an edition of the Pasadena Star. The editor gladly zecepted the 'opoitunity to go fishing -and the minister took uu his duties in the newspaper office. This is how he ifelt when he'found himself at the end of the task, which, it must be said, had been done quite creditably: "My time Is almost up as I pen this last line; my hand is almost paralyz ed; my .brain is befuddled, and I am free to confess .trat I am right glad to vacate the holy spot. Such rush and riot and disarray. Such a jumble of potpourri; it strikes ine as the-ef -fort to bring order out of chaos, and, -to do it lightning quick. "I am reminded of the memorable 'words, "The earth was without form -and void, and darkness was upon the face o( -.the waters.' Never shall I ,criticize neyspaper me'n more. I ,shall pray for them. They will have .mny keart's forbearance henceforth .and forever. They are the hardest worked, shortest lived, poorest paid brain workers on tris weary old world of ours."

We heartily pprove this practice of raising rheat for home consumption and be leve it :ihould be more generally' racticed, says Prof. C. P. Blackwell:, gronomist, who believes tha tour ield.s are too low here to make it a rofitable crop to plant as a money rop but that it does pay a farme.I o plant enough for his own use. EIe. uggesi that after the wheat' is re. ioved in the spring the land may be lanted in either cow peas, soy beans, eanuts or a late crop of corn. Most of the wheat crop of this ate is planted in cotton or corn iiddlei. This is a very good )ra'. ce, especially if the three-tube drill i used !') do the planting. If the ind is plowed in preparation for rheat, it should be plowl as early ; )'>sble and medium deep. But )ld s!Iouhl not be juow deep juist ."for'. planti6, for wheavt need-i a rem see d bed.

In rler to avoid Hessian fly damage, vhea tshould not be up until after rost, but the sooner it comes up af er frost the )et'.er the yield can be xpected. Rate of Seeding.-If seeded with drill on ordinary land, five pecks >er acre is best. If seeded )road ast. it in best to use six pecks per kcre. Fortilizers. - During ordinary imes it is not profitable to make enavy applications of commercial. ertilizer to wheat. For average bouth Carolina land 200 pounds of S cid phosphate and 100 pounds of otton seed meal at time of planting . vill give good results, if 50 to -100 'ounds of soda are used as a n ressing in the early spring.
