It seems quite marvelous that so
many varieties of veils are offered by
clever designers. Nowadays the fash
ionable woman would us soon think
of venturing upon the street without
a hat as to appear unveiled. ’Tis a
big fad, but for permanency nothing
, so far has equalled the vogue for
veils. As the green veil has increased
in popularity with the general public,
a noticeable preference has been
shown by the fashionable set for veils
of all black or all white in both chif
fon and delicate lace.

BOWLINGSVILLE LOCALS.
Cotton Crop Short—Chiltlron’s Day at Cor
inth—1’erHooal HappenlngM.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Bowlixghville, Sept. 8. — The
' weather continues warm yet and cot
ton is opening rapidly, while the
farmers are not losing any time in
gathering their crops. The cotton
crop has been reported shorter this
' year than last; if that’s the case
! farmers won’t be rushed much this
fall with work.
Last Saoday was children’s day at
Corinth. About ten o’clock as the
beautiful rays of sunshine were
beaming down, the people began to
gather in the grove at the church. At
11 o’clock the Sunday school assem
bled at the school house, and led by
their able superintendent, Mr. Ed
Clary, and Mr. R. S. Sporter, marched
into the church and sang three or
four pieces. Then the children began
to come out sod show what they
could do and after several nice recita
tions and dialogues bad been recited,
all returned to the grove and there,
from the oldest to the youngest, eu*
joyed unloading a table well filled
with all kinds of Dice thiugs to eat.
After all bad refreshed themselves
they went back Into the house and
heard a sermon preached by Rev. A.
, D. Davidson in memory of Alice, the
daughter of Mr. Joe Clary, who died
at her home Id Gaffney about four
weeks ago and was buried at Corinth.
A lot of people were present and I
think all returned to their homes
hoping to have an opportunity of en*
joying another occasion like that of
laH Sunday at Corioth.
Miss Eva Tate, who has been very
sick at her home in Gaffney, is able
to be out and is spending a while
with Mr. aud Mrs. Tom Tate.
Mrs. Jane Clary and her grand
daughter, Miss Della Kirby, returned
from Spartanburg last Thursday,
where they had spent a most de
lightful time with relatives.
We were delighted to have several
of the bright-eyed young girls and
boys of the Etta Jane section attend
the children’s day exercises at Corinth
Sunday.

Hawkins, of Caroleeu. N. 0., visited

POLITICS AND CHRISTIANITY

(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Buffalo, Sept. 1.—Tht writer is in
feeble health this morning. Heart
trouble is the ailment.
Buster, your prescription doesn’t
touch my trouble.
The campaign is about over with
and protracted meetings ought to be
the next thing in order to ask the
good Lord to forgive all the campaign
lies that have been told. A fortune
awaits the man who will invent a ma
chine to catch campaign lies and put
them out of circulation. They just
rise up out of the ground and nobody
knows from whence they come nt>r
whither they goetb.
All Cherokee county ought to join
together and have an old fashioned
camp meeting. The defeated candi
dates are good material for mourners.
Poor rejected fellows! How dejected
they look! My heart bleeds in sym
pathy for them. In a spirit of broth
erly love I wish to tell them to have
a meeting at the court house and ex
change sympathv with each other
and mingle their tears together, and
then 'f they want to better their con
dition in the foMrre, let them sell all
their earthly possessions ard give
alms to the poi.r aud thrn humble
themselves he? ire the Lord for a tree
and unconditional pardon of their
sins like they 1 ave humbled them
selves before the people for their
votes. If they will seek the kingdom
of God they will never run for an of
fice again. No man cun dabble in
politics and be a Christian at the
same time. Politics belongs to the
world, the flesh and the devil.
W. Henry Ross and J. Eh Jefferies,
the two bachelor candidates for clerk
of court, are very cheeky fellows, in
asmuch as they have gone before the
people to ack for support to get into
the beet office in the county and they
art both too stingy to support a wife.
One or the other is sure to get de
feated. Whichever one it is I would
advise him to get married and then
he can be a proprietor instead of a
clerk of a court. Either of them is
well worthy of promotion.
My friend, Air. W, 1). Gaston, one
of the Buffalo school trustees, thinks
that I have been too rough with him.
Mr. Gaston is not to be blamed for
the way the school has been managed,
but is to blame for not kicking up a
racket about it.
I wish Prof. McArthur would cor
rect the report he published before
the election. Prof., I told you last
spring that Buffalo would be like a
millstone around your neck. Did it
not prove to be true?
The preacher has been kissing some
of the young ladies again, so I am
told, St. Paul.says, “Greet ye one
another with a holy kiss of charity.”
Paul knew enough about human na
ture to know that men don’t like to
kiss one another, aud won’t; but still
he says kissing must be done. As for
my own part I wish some young lady
would give me permission to obey 8t.
Paul. Bachelor.
P. S.—A young lady told me today
that she had promised to marry J.
Eb Jefferies, provided he was re-elect
ed. Won’t it be an awful dose for
him to get defeated—to lose bis office
and the only opportunity he has ever
had to get a wife!
SUNDAY AT CORINTH.
It Was Children’s Daj and the Exercises
Were a Spiritual Feast.
We are compelled to speak of the
joys that come to the Sunday school
that is blessed with such a superin
tendent, officers ond teachers as the
Corinth school. We bad a bright
day throughout. Superintendent C.
E Clary was at his best and the
school sang their sweetest and the
children looked their prettiest.
The program was the outlined pro
duct of the American Baptist Pub
lication Society; the recitations were
brief, but entertaining and instruct
ive.
The missionary address was de
livered by Rev. W. T. Thompson, of
Gaffney. He oho-e for his subject
the missionary work of the American
Baptist Publication Society, and
urged the importance of every Sun
day school placing the society on its
benevolent roll.
The collection was taken for the
society and amounted to 1(3 20. At
11:45 the meeting adjourned one
hour and a quarter for dinner. The
baskets were placed on the long table
in the beautiful grove, and all the
committee’s arrangements for dinner
were complete.
The people assembled around the
table, the blessing was pronounced
by the Rev. A. D. Davidson, then all
were served bountifully by the com
mittee with the nicest and best edi
bles anyone could desire. Ob, how
those good ladies enjoy making glad
the visitors that come on chlldren’a
day.
After dinner was over singing began
in the church; the people reasembled
and beard a fine sermon by Rev. A.
D. Davidson dedicated to the memory
of Mr. Joseph Olary’a daughter. The
Lord hath done great things whereof
we are glad.
The meeting closed and we turned
our face toward home feeling indeed
like we bad been to a spiritual feast.

THE COMMERCIAL AND AGRICUL
TURAL VALUE OF FERTILIZERS:
What is known as the commercial
value of fertilizers as published in
agricultural bulletins and similar doc
uments, is a valuation made up by-
adding together the average value of
the chemical ingredients which are
contained in the fertilizers.
The agricultural value of a fertili
zer is variable according to the skill
of the farmer and according to the
crop, and according to the seasons. It
ciffip, and the seasons. It is the
practical result obtained in apply
ing the fertilizers. The two values
ought to be about the same, and on
the average they probably are about
the same, but the individual farmer
who gives careful personal attention
to his values will be able to make con-
siderable difference in his results by
studying the underlying principles.
The chemical ingredients which are re
cognized as imparting commercial
value to fertilizers are nitrogen, phos
phoric acid and potash. There is but
one source of phosphoric acid which
is at all practical and which is made
use of in the manufacture of fertiliz
ers in the South. This is acid phos
phate, which is made by treating
phosphate rock with sulphuric acid.
The most ordinary source of potash is
kainit, which is mined in Germany.
The phosphoric acid and the potash,
which are derived from these sources,
are about the same in their results on
crops as the phosphoric acid and pot
ash derived from an, other sources,
but the sources of nitrogen are num
erous. This is the most important and
expensive ingredient in fertilizers.
The commercial value of fertilizers,
based on the analysis of the contained
nitrogen, is reckoned just the same no
matter from what source the nitrogen
is obtained, and this fact is apt to
mislead the farmer in his estimate of
the kinds of fertilizer to use for cer
tain crops. For example: a fertilizer
containing nitrate of soda contains a
splwdid form of nitrogen, and one
which is very soluble; therefore, it is
very good for early vegetables and
quick growing crops, but it is entirely
too soluble for use in the cotton crop.
The cotton plant is of slow growth and
needs to have its food supplied
throughout a long interval. A fertili
zer containing cotton seed meal, hav
ing the same amount of nitrogen as
another fertilizer made of nitrate of
soda or any other source of nitrogen,
is much more valuable to the cotton
plant, even at the same commercial
value, than any other kind of fertilizer.
The nitrogen in cotton seed yieal is all
soluble, but it requires some time to
be put into complete solution. This is
exactly what slow-growing crops like
cotton and corn require, therefore, it
is important for farmers in the pur
chase of fertilizer to specify that this
fertilizer is made with cotton seed
meal, rather than other chemicals used
as a source of nitrogen (or, what is the
same thing, the source of ammonia.)
All fertilizers containing nitrogen in
any form are generally known as am-
moniated fertilizers. Let every farmer
see to it that his fertilizers are am-
moniated with cotton seed meal, and,
as he knows he can not get the meal
to better advantage than from any of
the local mills of the Southern Cotton
Oil Company of the Carolinas and
Georgia, or through their headquarters
at Columbia, S. C., Augusta, Ga„ At
