wide interest in public affairs. For
years he was a picturesque figure at
publici sales, being official auctioneer
for city and county.
He was a member of the old volun
teer fire department and its work
was always dear to his heart,
t A gifted writer, he wrote many ar
ticles for the papers, and his “Nug

ago was creeping upon the simple
life of the agricultural South.

ried on to the very last in the life of
the widely known Augustan. He re

ance and humor kept him personal
friends with any whom he engaged
in academic disputes.
He was the husband of the late

WITH POTASH
w.
tf/teur ntrtt
Experiments and
practical field tests
h^ve shown that pot-
v ash will increase the
yields of com enough
to make good profits
after paying for the
cost of the potash. In
addition to increasing
the yields, potash fills
out the ears and re
duces firing, root rot,
and lodging. Dr. H. P.
Cooper, Director of the
South Carolina Exper
iment Station, says
that much of the po
tentially good corn
land in the eastern part
of South Carolina has
become so deficient in
potash that corn is
soften almost a com
plete failure. Increase
your com yields this
year by top-dressing
with 100-200 pounds
per acre of a nitrogen-
potash fertilizer. Consult your county agent
or experiment station about the plant-food re
quirements of your soils. See your fertilizer dealer
or manufacturer regarding fertilizers high in pot
ash. You will be surprised how little it costs to
use more potash. Writeus for fur
ther information and literature.
