Wednesday, Oct. 24, 1900. The total taxable property of Lancaster county is : Railroad, $238,850; reality, $1,200,053; personal, 689,635; total, $2,128,538. The total, for the entire State, is?$183,030,613. Wheat on Old Land. Whether or not wheat will bring $1 or $1.50 a bushel before the close of the year, a Maryland farmer has demonstrated that wheat can bo grown with profit in the older sections of the country against the competition of tho West Maryland is one of the longest-settled portions of the United States, and its Charles county has been under cultiv.-ttion longer than many counties in tho State. It has, moreover, been cultivated with crops?tobacco and corn? which, under old conditions, tended to deplete the soil. From sixty-four acres of this former tabacoo and corn land the Maryland farmer threshed in June of this year 1300 bushels. One field of twenty-seven acres averaged thirty bushels to the acre. His wheat was sold at early July prices for a little moro than $900. it cost him $250 for fertilizers, etc., to make the crop, not counting his own labor, which included threshing with his own machine. Not without considerable work lias he brought the land to such a condition. For several years he haa grazed Cuttle And SiiOGp on the farm, which themselves bring him a few dollars now and then, and he has also given the soil cowpea-vine treatment. The experience is worth recording as encouraging to other farmers, and as indicating that the so-called wornout soils of the Atlantic seaboard are not beyond redemption. llinmarck** Iron Nerve War the result of his splendid health.

Four hundred pounds of cotton per acre is far above the average, and at that yield the crop on an acre, at 10 cents a pound, is worth $40. The Mullins Enterprise reports, however, that. Mr. VV. H. Daniels, a Marion county farmer, has made this year $1,185 on five acres of tobacco, or an average of $237 per acre. This is the equivalent, in value, as appears from a single caleula tinn a f aVw/\?1 + ar?n ft r\ /vf O C\ ? a. >FI XMVUV WIID ftVIO 111 l)ll-cflll cotton, yielding 400 pounds per acre, or of six acreB of 10 cent cotton yielding at the same rate. So that it is evident that there are other crops that can be grown and are grown in South Carolina that compare very favorably with dime cotton. Some of the cotton farmers in Marion and other counties may learn something to their advantage from Mr. Daniel's pleasing experience.?News and Courier.
