WITH POTASH WITHOUT POTASH POTASH LPAYS TOBACCO No crop gives better returns for using the ri^ht kiml of fertilizer than dots tobacco. Potash Both quantity ami quality arc improved by properly balanced fertilizers containing Potash in the form of Sulfate?Muriate and Kuinit will not do. The amount of Sulfate of Potash should be from 200 to 250 pounds per acre. This would mean lOUO to 1250 pounds per acre of 4-5-10 goods. Many so-called "tobacco fertilizers" arc merely ordinary, general-purpose mixed goods, containing chlorides which injure the quality of the leaf. Insist on goods free from chlorides and containing 10 to 12 per cent. Potash, or supplement the manure with 300 to 40(1 pounds acid phosphate and 200 to 250 pounds Sulfate of Potash.

TORREMS SYSTEM NOT BEFORE LEGISLATURE Was Much Discussed Lust Year hat Free Conference Couldn't Agree* | Columbia, Feb. 22.?The legislative session Is Hearing an eud, at least so far as any practical disposition of how business Is concerned, and still through the entire period 111 which the houses have held sessions, not a word has been heard of the Torrens system of land registration. The ut ter absence of any mention whatever of this scheme for the better record ing of land titles comes somewhat as a dull climax to the various discus sions and expenditures of gray mat ter which were occasioned by the proposition during the 1911 session'. .Mr. Archie Willis, newspaper man and representive from Laurens coun ty and Senator .1. R. Barle of Oconee were among the promoters of the scheine last year, and a number of learned and careful arguments on the BUbjeCt were given in their respective houses on this system of land regis tration. Dills were introduced in both houses to establish this system of land registration, but members of both houses did not appear to relish the idea of passing so quickly a matter of such depth and little or no action was taken on these bills. Houses Couldn't Agree. The journals of the house and sen ate; for the 1911 session show an in teresting disposition of the Torrens system, which is probably one of the reasons why the system lias not been brought to the attention of tho gen eral assembly this year. Upon hear ing the discussions of the senate bill proposing to establish the Torrens system of land registration, the sen ators were of the opinion that this proposition, like other things, should be "investigated" and reported upon, before the general assembly should commit itself for or against it. A Joint resolution was accordingly, introduced by Senator Carllse of Spartanburg (now ctn.irnian of an other investigating conwnk.ee) "pro viding for the appointment of a com mission to Investigate the Tofrrens system of land registration, to pre pare a bill for its adoption, and to report the same to the next animal session of tho general assembly." This resolution passed the senate, and was sent to the bouse, where that body "amended" it by striking out all after the resolving words and insert ing a provision that the house and senate judiciary committees be direct ed to Investigate and report upon the system. Free Conference Split. The senate declined to accept this Change, and tho house insisted upon it, and in accordance with the usual course of legislation, a committee of free conference, consisting of Sena tors Carlisle. Stewart and Karle, and Representatives Karle, Willis and lr hy, was appointed to consider the measure. The free conference committee could not arrive at an agreement. Senntors Carlislo nnd Stewart and Representatives Karle and W'.llis. re turned a report recommending that the house recede from its amend ments. The senate adopted this re port. A minority of the committee, how ever, consisting of Senator Barlo and Representative Irby, returned a re port recommending that the senate concur in the house amendments. On motion of Mr. Irby, the house adopted tho minority report, and this of course killed the bill. Whether or not the advocates of the system feel that it is too long a step for South Carolina at the present time, or whether the legislative horl ?/.on has been clouded with so many Storms that many desirable matters were lost sight of. is not known, but certain it Is that all matters pertain ing to the adoption of the Torrens system of land registration have a-,; parently been respectfully referred to the general assembly of 1913-1911.?

A bottle of HYOMBI costs fif) cents; a complete outfit, ! which Includes Inhaler, $1.00 On the 13th of February our com munity was deeply saddened when the news was heralded that our friend Mrs. Mol lie 15. Cooper lay sweetly sleeping in the arms of death. It was indeed sad, so. sad, but our loss was her eternal gain. Wo realize that a good, kind friend, and neighbor has gone from among us, but her influence will still live with us. As a neighbor she will bo missed, for she was ever ready to lend a helping hand in sick ness or in health or to assist in any way that would help or comfort her neighbor. As a member of her churc h she will bo keenly missed for there was none more faithful to attend, none more ready to uphold Ihm- pastor's hand, but most of all she will be miss ed in her homo where she was so kind and true. She was a consistent mem ber of the Mt. Olive Baptist church where she was president of the Wom an's Missionary society for several years. She leaves a devoted husband and one son. two brothers and one sister, besides a host of friends to mourn her loss. She had been suffering for sev eral years but bore it all patiently un til death came and relieved her of her suffering. Her remains were laid to rest in the Mt. Olive cemetery on Wednesday af ternoon where it will rest quietly un tlll the resurrection morn. The fun eral services were conducted by Rev. ?lohn Washington and Rev, .1. O. Mar tin in the presence of a concourse of sympathizing friends. A piece of flannel dampened with Chamberlain's Liniment and hound on to the affected parts is superior to any plaster.

Little .lames, the seven months old son of Mr. and Mrs. I. Walter Hellams and grandson of Mr. and Mrs. It. II. Donaldson, died on Thursday morning February the 22nd, 1912 at the home of its parents in this city, lie was a lovely child and won the hearts of many during the little space of time that God gave him here on earth. We loved James very dearly, but God is too good to ho unkind and too wise to make any mistakes. We bow in humble submission to His will. MANY CITIES ARE STARTLED BY CURES New Root J lice Medicine Creates V. ide Interest by Its Strange Power Over Disease. The startling rapidity with which the fame of the new Root Juice, medi cine has traveled seems little short of marvelous for although its strange power over disease has been known but a short time, reports front peo ple in many cities, praising it to the skies and describing the most phe nomenal cures, are coming from ev erywhere. Dozens of people hero in town who were nmong the fist to obtain tin1 medicine at the drug stores, are now telling of benefits that have been de rived from its use. On every hand one may hear stories that seem almost Incredible and yet the persistency with which j such reports are made seem to dispel I any doubt concerning ,ho remarkable I no 1 it of discovery. From all reports, the Hon! JuICO ex ert.; a powerful curative Influence upon the digestive and secretory or gans and some of those who have tried it say they can scarcely net enough to eat and that the stomach seems able to digest anything. It stops Indigestion, belching, the forma tion of gas on the stomach and pains alter meals. In a surprising manner and its continued use for a short time .strengthens ami tones the stom ach ro that Indigestion is soon for gotten. Rheumatic sufferers, too de clare that the effect of the medicine on sore, swollen, Itching limbs and joints is wonderful and that the pain simply seems to vanish. The following extracts from a few of the many recent reports will con vey a good idea of the groni results that are being obtained by its use in many cities over the country. F, Abel, Seymour.
