hi Response to uu inquiry Ho
Writes Interestingly ton
corning the Value ol
Subsoiling.
Mr Charles Petty of Spaitanburg
recently obtained Iroiu Pro .
Newman the following in roler
enco to aubaoiling lan i:
CleiDbon College.
Mr. Charle- Petty, Spartan !
tanburg, 8. C.?Dear 8ir: In response
to your inquiries of the
l-lth inet, I havo been laboring
for thirty years for the pr mo-,
tion of better methods in .111"
Southern agriculture and through ;
this tho increase of intelligent:and
prosperity of our farmers
Your first question as to the no J
cossity of deepening and more
thoroughly pulverizing the soil
before planting strikes at tlm ,
root of tho matter. The m-ist '
important thing for the farme; to'
do is to secure good icxlu.e '
through tire agency of thorough
tillage. Without this much!
labor in the planting, fertilizing
and cultivating the crop is done
in vain. There is an ohl saying,
which is especially applicable to;
farming, viz: "One bad job ,
makes another." If good fixturej
is not secured before planting1
we are apt to have poor stands of j
weakly plants, poor cultivation
and small crops.
If the soil is broken only a few
inches in depth, and even this
much not pulverized, there can
be no storage of moisture again1-'* I
a summer drought, but oriom 1
risk of surface washing upon '
tolling lands, since the compact
subsoil or bar!pan resists the
1 -1 ? i c .? 1
iiowuwuru penetration 01 i!.< 1
bummer si oivers, tKo small j
amount of broken soil >oon becomes
saturated, ami the water
which should sink into the subsoil
llows on ill Hurl ,Ci-. Tins is (
the season for deep ploughing and |
tut broiling, while Jack Frost, the
best pulverizer, is renderinc cfli- i
cietit aid. Walk ovoi the fields '
now and obseiNu tin- iw?-I!ow con
dition of the surface, md notion '
that the clod.; which were lVt <
iltrouuii poor - lait spring '
crumble under tlm foot The 1
surface brting pulveuzed by tl . i
Irost presents little re-i*taneo to <
the plough, and hc-i iv tin same
team can pull the plough one or !
two inelu - dc pi r than if will be:'
able to !;? afl< r the baking rains 1
niiM n:; mjr woe's < ! M irch
One or two inch s of the sub-;
soil nmy bo turned up now with
advantage, since the frost will
pulverize it and ntiridic it with
the sc?i 1. If this is done in
spring the portion of the subsoil
turned up will bake into clods
and remain so dur;ng the sum
mcr.
Every tiller of the soil >hould
learn as his lirst and most important
lesson th" value of a!
deep soil, thoroughly pulverized
to admit a free penetration of
the air and circulation of m<dv
ture, rendering tht pi netr; ;i?
and multiplication of tl ahso
bing root so/face - possible. This
simplifies .and facilitates all
subsequent operation in produ |
cing t ho crop. There is another
old -eying which i.^ applicable
here, viz: "Thorough prepera-i
tjon is half cultivation."
Thorough preparation and
shallow cultivation should ho
our motto.
WHAT FKHTIin/HCH IS NKKDKD.
As to your <|iiestioii about. 1 ho
amount of pliosphoric acid and
potash is the first 10 or '20 incites
of our "Piedmont clays?"
1 have no sourco of accurate information.
Prof. Bailey, in
"The Principles of Agriculture,"
says; " Roberts calculates from
many analysis that in average
agricultural lands the surface
eight inches of soil on each
acre contains ovei 3,000 pounds
.ANCASTER, s! C? BA
of nitrogen, nearly 4,<)()<? pounds
of phosphoric acid .and over
17,000 pounds of potash." Much
of these essential elements of
plant food is locked up in insoluble
compounds. Hv t.hm?mi?fb
tillage, admitting iho oxygen
of the air to which the fine particles
of soil are exposed, toy
allowing an abundant absorption
of moisture to dissolve the
mineral plant food liberated by
the chemical action of the oxygen
upon the insoluble compounds,
and by incorporating
organic matter into the soil
th^re will he less need of artificial
fertilizers, and those applied
will proye more efficient.

TURDAY, JANUARY
Ilailroad Era Megan in 1827.
The year 1827 began an areti
in the history of Charleston?hei
railroad era. On November 24
of that year an Act was passed
by the legislature of South Caro
li: ?. 'Mo authorize the formation
of a com pan\ for constructing
railroads or canals from the city
of Charleston to tho towns ol
Columbia, Camden and Ilam
burg." This was the beginning
of the South Carolina Railroad.
Early tho next year the scheme
of building this road, for which
a charter had been obtained, was
agitated and the town council ot
Charleston had an experimental
railroad constructed on the lot at
the northwest corner of YVentwor'h
and Smith streets, which
j fully demonstrated the fact <lthat
'room iron viieel would run
J over :i smooth iron rail." In the
n--.\< t?vr> years the plane were
j perfected, and on January 9.
1830, the building of the road
b mn ;f Lino Stre- t, in Charlesou.
S;x mi! op w? re completed
i in ! 830. and on October 23 an
to 'tilled the "Rest Friend,"
designol by E. L. Miller, of Char
1 lc<ton, and built at the West
IV bit Foundery, West L'oint, N.
Y rri-.'d in Charleston, and on
November 2 was placed upon the
ro:*d. On the IJtii a;nl 15th of
D c?niKer if made trial tri)ip,
which, were successful, and
ihenceforth the engine was reg
ularly use 1 to convey materials
and pleasure parties up and down
the* road. This was really the
firs1 rah road in America to he
j operated by steam, for the four
teen miles of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad which were opened
j for tratlic on May 24. 1830, wort
i for nearly a year thcroaftei
