WILL IT PA Y TO MANURE OATS.
Editor Orangeburg Times :
As I did not keep :i manuscript of
letters, written lust year. I may rc
caputulatc, I>ut. 1 consider the iuets
of such importance, it will not be
amiss. First; before answering this
question, willi figures, 1 would state
thstt cut oats is the cheapest and best
food known for horses and mules, as
wc have the best climate and soil,
innehanically considered, in the world
for its production. To raise oats
successfully we must know something
of its nature. First; oats require,
considerable moisture, and bereis
the cause, why so many of our far
mers, fail to successfully raise it.
planting it on washed oil'hill sides,
soil incapable of holding moisture.
The analysis of oats, shows, thai it
contains one half of its weight in
silicate Of lime: thai il requires con
siderable nitrogen <>r ammonia and
phosphate of lime and potash. Hut
to be practical. Mow can the farmer
obtain them? 1 will give my mode.
To obtain silicate of lime, 1 apply
straw, potash and Dr. Haveners
ash clement. On stubble hind, in
duly in order to obtain a good green
manuring which furnishes humus,
and sow eowpeas which furnishes am
monia, phosphate of lime and potash
in abundance for < he oat or any ot her
crop. Now for facts and figures to
prove that manures pay on oats. 1
planted a Held two or three years
without Ibrlili/.ing. The yield accord
ing to'iny and my iieighborsjudgiiient
was 20 bushels per aero, with manure
above, worth ash element per acre
on peas, and 1<> bushels cotton seed
per acre Oil oals. The yield hist
year, according to compass and two
horse load measurement, was over
100 bushels per acre. This'year the
promise is equally* as good, and I
think a little better. I have ten acres
planted in oals on the IKI road, with
10 bushels cotton seed only per acre. I
The yield promises me or2fi bush,
per acre. This land made last year
according to my judgment about
one bushel of. corn per acre, being
well worked, and I am well satisfied
would not make'oats worth the cut
ting without the 10 bushels cotton
seed.
Now brother farmer, make your
calculation and decide the question
for yourself.
The advantage of manuring oats
is not confined to the yield alone, but
promotes the growth of weeds and
grass, furnishing good pasturage or
improving your land by green manur
ing, a system not known or practiced
in our County. 1 have said in this
letter that oats is the best feed for
horses, and thai our soil and climate
is the best in the world for its pro
duction. Science bears me out in
this assertion, and I am ready to
funish the proof, if any of your rcadj
crs doubt or request it. In my next
I will write on book farming, and its
advantages.

A Sijunbblo over the Proposed Changes hi
the County Olliees.
A correspondent in thcXcws and
Courier writes : "A small sized war
is being waged here between some of
the olliee! s of the COIIllty illlll the
members of the bar as to the carry
ing out of cert a i n changes in the ar
rangeinenl of the county oflieors,
which wire recommended by the
grand jury at the last term of the
court, and while 1 don't care to fake
a hand in the light. 1 think it will be
of interest to the people ofthecounty
t.0 IlliVl! both sides ol* t lie quest ii ill
laid before t hem.
The recommendation ofthe grand
jury was tiiat the clerk of the court;
who now occupies two rooms opening
ink) each ot her. should move his olliee
into the room now occupied by the
county treasurer wherein, it is slated,
there is a large vault suitable for the
preserve I ion of mm port an I papers; the
treasurer and county auditor to occu
py I he i wo rooms vacated by t lie clerk
of. court, thus bringing these two im
porlunt olliees in close and intimate
connection as they are in the line of
their duties, thus avoiding, it is
claimed, great inconvenience and
trouble lb taxpayers who. under the
pi e-.eiit arrangement, a re frequent ly
compelled in pay penalties for want
of opportunity lb pity their taxes wii !i
in the lime prescribed by law. It is
further claimed, by those who desire
the change, t hat by this arrangement
the olliee of the auditor will be lefl
vacant and call be appropriately used
as (lie master's olliee with a saving
fit' $T."i ii year, the rent now paid by
the county for Ids Olliee.
Upon this recommendation ofthe
grand jury Judge Fressloy made an
order carrying it into effect ami the
work was commenced. Ileibre it bad
proceeded far, however, the clerk ol
the court objected, and at a meeting
of Hie bar recently held a petition
sighed by the whole bar, with the ex
CCptioil of tWO, WHS prepared and was
presented to Judge Thomson, asking
him to rescind the order of ?Iudgu
I'resslex. and set ting for! h IIS t he lea
sou therefor t lull the clerk of I lie
court being also the registrar of
in es ne cOuseyiinco way necessnrilv I
obliged to have i wo rooms in which
lo keep tin' voluminous records Of his
two olliees separn e for 1 ho eon von
ience of the bar. The\ also objected
to the cos! of $100 which the change
would entail.
The toinily treasured aifti auditor '
and about a hundred citizens, in
answer to this petition, put, in tt coun
ter petition, asking that the order of]
Judge Frcssley be not rescinded, und
thai its terms be forthwith carried
out. This petition was presented by
Solicitor Jorvoy, all the members of
the Oraiigeburg bar being on the
ot her side of I lie quest ion.
Judge Thomson niter hearing both
petitions issued nn order this morn
ing referring the winde matter back
to the county commissioners to take
testimony and hear both sides, with
the right of appeal from their decision
to the court. And so the matter
stands.
He that don't read papers is igno
rant of the world he lives in, und be
hind the age of the current history of
the day, and i-i not moved by eon
cord of sweet sounds, mid hath no
music in his soul. Let no such man
be trust,...!.
"The grass \?< turning green,"' wus
the observant remark of a young man
escorting ii pretty damsel across the
common, and the saucy miss replied
"that he had got ahead of the grass
by a number of da vs."
The cure of most people is how to
get husbands for their daughters;
l?ut my care is to Iii my daughters to
be good wives; ami then let God pro
vide for them.
