The average farmer thinks he Is a specialist, and that he is wasting time and money In trying to do any thing else. There Is a theory that In the limited area In this world where cotton may be successfully grown, and among the comparatively few men on earth who really under stand the production of cotton, it would be a perversion of Nature for these few men in this limited area to attempt anything hut to grow cot ton. The thing which stands in the way of this argument is the great subject of by-products. There Is scarcely a manufacturing enterprise in the world today that could profit ably continue business on the basis of the production of one single arti cle, without the utilization of the other products which are the Inci dental output in connection with the main article. Not many years ago, the cotton farme r overlooked the fact tmu. u.u product was seed cotton. He thought It was lint cotton. He threw the seed away, and would have thanked any one to haul them off the farm. But now, every producer of cotton knows he could not survive without taking Into account the enormous value of his cotton seed, which might be call ed a by-product. If he raises 100 bales of cotton, worth about $6,000, he ineidentlly raises 50 tons of cotton seed, which he can sell for about $1,000, thus adding to the value of the main crop about 18 per cent. This 18 per cent would be considered by any manufacturer as a fine profit on his business. This matter has become so well known, that it Is no longer discussed as a mooted question. There is a by-product of the farm that Is just as obvious as cotton seed, and 13 now just as widely Ignored as was cotton seed forty years ago. This is cattle raising. It is even more than a by-product. It Is almost a necessity. The Intelligent raising of cattle on a farm In the cotton region costs less money (though perhaps more conscious thought) and pro duces more rotum than any other one branch of the business. It is not alone in the market value of the beef or dairy products, but It Is In the almost Immeasurable value to the cotton lands themselves. The cotton farmer who raises large herds of cat tle becomes. In a sense, a manufact urer who uses raw material of his own production, and makes a finished product of high commercial value, while the process of manufacture not only costs him nothing—except thought—but actually adds to his re sources In the enrichment of his lands, so he can grow more cotton and pro duce more beef which enables him to grow still more cotton and produce still more beef. The present commercial value of cotton seed meal Is based on one two things, according to the locality, namely (l) the value of Its nitrogen as a fertilizer, In comparison with the value of the nitrogen in other avail able fertilizing chemicals; or (2) the value of Its nitrogen as a feed stuff In comparison with the value of the nitrogen In other available feed stuffs. But now the great and comparatively new truth Is being discovered that, with the proper manipulation, the true value of cotton seed meal Is not an alternative one, but a cumrtlativo one, that is. the nitrogen value as a feed, and the nitrogen value as a fertilizer. This truth cannot long remain dormant; but while It Is dor mant to the farmer who does not reau and study, it is the golden harvest time for the farmer who thinks. When he buys a ton of cotton seed meal at Itg feed valuation, say $28 per ton, he should use this value as a feed, and should save the resultant manure from the cattle, and use the fertilizer value of the meal, say $28, and thus make 100 per cent on his Investment In meal, and realize as an incidental profit, all of the beef (or the butter as the case may be) which his skill and foresight can produce. Upper Cherokee Locale- Cowpens, Route 1, Nov. 12.—The farmers are about done picking cot ton and are beginning to make prep arations for wheat sowing. Some are still bolding their cotton while others are selling. Mr. Wofford Price closed out his crop yesterday at Mary Louise Mills for ten and a quarter cents. None of our farmers through this section belong to the Farmers’ Union. Mr. Joe Humphries, of Mt. Olive, will begin a singing school at New Pleasant next Monday morning, If not providentially hindered. Miss Annie Hamrick, a daughter of Mr. Jas. Hamrick, of State Line, and Mr. Grover Collins, of Arrowood, were united In the holy bonds of matrimony at State Line church at nine o’clocb last Sunday morning in the presence of quite a number of friends and rel atives, Rev.

Bat the duty of the kidneys Is to remove all uric acid from the blood. Its presence there shows the kidneys are Inactive. Don’t da’ly with “uric ••cid solvents” You might go on till doomsday with them, hut until you cure the kidneys you will never get well. Doan’s Kid ney pills not only remove uric acid, but cure the kidneys and then all danger from uric acid is ended. Rupert B. Calvo, bookbinder, em ployed at The State Publishing Co., official printers for the State of South Carolina, living at'1010 Lumber St, Columbia, S. C., says: M I thought I had rheumatism and treated for it on that belief. 1 used all Muds of lini ments. The pain was In my back and in my hips clear to the shoulders. The liniments did no goon and I took to blood medicines hat they did not help me. 1 took a long trip in hopes that the change of climate might help me. I was away for three months but could see no change tor the better. I heard of Doan’s Kidney Pills and determined to try them, and got a box at a drag store.
