Suutkrrn Derelo^neut, In trar last issue we called atten tion to the condition of the North western farmer and pointed ont some of the disadvantages under which he labored. Farther inquiry has more than demonstrated the truth of our statements, and also shows that the dissatisfaction is not confine*! to one special section, but extends over a very large area of country, cover ing an extent of territory larger than all the South Atlantic States. Allu sion has already been made to the condition of tl c farmers in Western Kansas and Nebraska, and to their avowed intention of seeking homes in the South, v. here they can have the assurance of a genial climate and of planting their crops in soil where an entire failnre is unknown. Very few of onr people realise the importance and significance of the discontent of these people and how comparatively easy it will be to nse it for the benefit of the South and of our own section. In sections where only one staple crop can grown, no matter how rich the soil, the conditions are not near so favorable as in those that are capable of producing all the great staples. It is very probable that the soil in Kansas and Nebraska is richer, naturally, than ours, but the absence of sufficient rainfall and other climatic conditions make this of very little avail, and despite this seeming advantage the farmers there find themselves on the brink of financial ruin. We see from a letter published in the Fayetteville Ob server, written from the State of Washington, which is on t he Pacific coast, that the financial depression there can hardly be portrayed, and mentions as an instance of it that good horses could la? iiought for from three to ten dollars each ami that wheat was selling at 17 cents per bushel that cost 30 cents to prodnoe. It is only a few years since flaming advertisements and circulars telling of the wonderful resources of this new State were scattered broad cast over the country and many were induced to leave their comfortable homes in the old States by these promises of future wealth. We have in our town a gentlemen who has traveled very extensively in the Northwest and who also visited the Pacific States. His intention was to settle if be found a brlter place than Sonth Carolina, I ut this he failed to do and will probably spend all the balance of his life in his native State. Almost without a single exception the men who have come South, from the Northern and Western States, since the war have done well and have remained as., permanent resi dents. They very quickly become accustomed to the colored laltorer and get on with bin just as Wei! as onr native-born ciikTiis. A section like om « that can pro duce wheat, com, oats, tobacco, eot- toti and rice within its territory, and is in addition well timbered and with plenty of running streams* is in every respect desirable for immi grants seeking homes. In addition to these staple crops every variety of produced and rcgetahlp that can be grown in the temperate zone, finds itself at home here and can l»egrown with the greatest perfection. We have already called uttenliun to the efforts that are being made by the Atlantic ('oast Line and I he Seaboard Air-Line to bring innni- gnuils into -our section, and the question is shall w'c cn-operale with them and make the work a success, or by our neglect lose an opportunity that will not. in all probability, again Drew nt itself ? With proper effort the popiilHiimi of our seel ion could lie doubled in the space of ten years, and this Would be but the eomtnencemei t of tbc agricultural and political in- fntmfQi tbffwtfa. AN ESSAY OK- .Ur The Uses Aid Abuses of Aon mere la I Fertilizers. Continued (Tom Last Week’s Issue. ' When the manufacturer guaran tees yon the above-nained goods, he simply guarantees yon this: That a ton of it contains forty pounds of ammonia, 120 pounds, of phosphoric acid, and forty pounds, of potash, and if he finds it cheaper and puts them up in 1,000 pounds, or 1,500 pounds of high grade ingredients he does So, and puts in 1,000 pounds or 500 pounds, of some worthless “fil ler” because if he wonld tell von he bad sold yon all he promised, you would not accept it unless it Weighed a ton. I will take Charleston as a basis and figure the relative cost of ingre dients of a ton of high and low grade fertilizer. 1 will take for instance a fertilizer containing 2 per cent, am monia, 5 per cent phosphoric acid, 1 i per cent potash which is worth f. o. b. Charleston $13.70. Also another containing twice these per centages which is worth $24. In one you have 170 pounds, of ingredients which enter into the plant in the other 240 pounds. The high grade fertilizer contains twice as much as the low grade, and is equal to two tons of the latter. The manufacturer sells it for less becanse it costs him less to inanipnlate one ton than two. It takes ten sacks less which cost 90 cents, privilege tax 25 cents, sacking, etc. 35 cents, so there is $1.50 to say nothing of grinding and other expenses. By using the high grade you save the differense between two tons low grade, and one ton high grade $3.40 the freight from Charleston ($2.63) hauling hud handling one ton of “filling.” I follow this theory with regard to my own farm, and I do not feel that I can afford not to. The application of, or how com mercial fertilizers should be used, is is not so perplexing a question as some others. “The amount cannot be indefinitely increased with the expectation of obtaining a corres ponding increase in the orop. The gain in crop does not keep pace with the Increase of fertiliZr rs, and a jioint is speedily reached, beyond which, this gain Is not sufficient to meet the additional cost of In avlef applications. The soil cannot he profitably forced, the application of fertilizers must be regulate,' by its mechanical as well as chemical condition.” If you fertilize to any extent great care should be taken in the preparation of the laud, pla iting and cultivation of the crop, or you will certainly sustain a loss. It will do very well to use in small quan tities .in the furrow, but if a large quantity, 500 lbs. per acre or over it is best to distribute and mix with the soil as thoroughly as possible. Theoretically, a fertilizer should not tie all applied at one time, but frequently. This involves consider able cost and trouble. The time for applying varies with the nature of the crop, soils, seasons, and the amount yon use. The greater the amount, the greater the necessity of a division of tlie' application. Light mid porous lands require frequent applications, especially where there is little or no vegetable matter, becanse the crop will feed I die rally in the beginning the fertilizer will leach away with the first excessive rains and the crop will soon be disappointed and fail, while stiff soils will retain it, and give it up as required by the plant. It. is better on any kitei of laud hi put the more soluble forms as they i.re required, snch us nitrate of soda etc., while lliemore insoluble un<-s might lie put earlier. For cotton, just* before planting is the most common mid a good time to make the application, while with corn, a part only should he put tliec, and the iTtlaitoe at least once ot twice afterwards, when the corn Is well advanced, in order to make and mature the ear. Dorn la no doiiht often nmtcriully injured, not’only by using tm niuc.h/wrtilizer iimleriieatb, but in using them too early. It will in variably pay best to apply fertilizers on land susceptible of the greatest improvement, and I think it a mistake not only to use fertilizers on lands which is not, but to farm such lands ut all. The beth-l the quality of the land, the subsoil, and the physical conditions, the greater the return will lie, and the (letter the laud the heavier it will pay to fertilize, while on rolling or washing land it is extremely doubt ful if it will ever pay. 1 would never fertilize any land with com mercial fertilizs-rs except in u limited way, which did not have a plenty of Vegetable matter in land is as essen tial to save yonr commercial fertili zers, as straw in your stable, to save your manure. It will never, under any e : rcimistanoe«, pay you to use i any fertilizers on any kind of laud ! which needs drainage, and on all J our nudraiuevl ponds, fiats, and low- amis you can save your money hy saving your fertilizers, and not applying them in such places until they hiv drained. i a general rule, I believe it wonld pay ns all best to fertilize our l>est lands heavier if even at til expense of the |iooier ones. Of the abuses and misuse of fertili zers I will speak laiefiy. It is the nse of a fertilizer in any way or icondition that will not produce the . lies) possible benefit. It mosi often j consist, in not fertilizing with the |right elepicnt* ami in the light ' proportion ; and in using fertilizers that are not neede<); in making heavy applications; in putting it. alt .out at one-time ami in one furrow 'n the greuudi iuiWml ot ttotributing more evenly as to time ami soil; ■ hy using too much on porous soils where ’here is no organic matter, thus losing the benefit of the cumulative effect, w'liieh I contend, is probably yonr only profit ; also by under feeding, or not using enough on your' best- soils, fn buying ingredients of chemicals which will not do to put together, and in mixing them certain combi nations take place destroying as a fertilizer one or more of the ingredi ents. In not keeping your fertilizers dry after mixing them, to prevent any such chemical formations. Lime or ashes will never do to mix with any fori* of ammonia. If you have a special formula put up, it will pay you to write to Gtemsou College and ascertain if the ingredi ents can be mixed. I think it always best for a farmer to have his fertilizers mixed ut the factory. It can be done at a small cost, and infinitely better, as it is impossible, without great expense to haye it as evenly mixed. We should make mogt of our ammonia at home, and should only buy phosphoric acid and potash. It seems to me a great waste for farmers to fertilize with an element like cotton seed meal worth $30 a ton as cow food, when it is worth as much as a fertilizer after it has lieen fed, and lastly I think it a misuse of fertilizers not to nse them.

When tho lucane Tax Starts. A highly important question that hits been the subject of much dis cussion since it became apparent that the Senate Tariff bill wonld be come a law relates to the income tax and the date on which it will go into ••ffect It is the opinion of the mem- Is-rs of the Ways and Means Com mittee that. t his provision will become operative next January, and the tux which will then be levied will be n, on incomes earned since Jan. 1, 1H94. This opinion is based upon a literal interpretation of the terms of the bill, which are as follows: “See. 51. That, from end after the 1st of January,eighteen hundred and ninety-five, slid nntil the first day of Janiiury, nineteen hundred, there shall he assessed, levied, col lected and'paid annually upon the gains, profits and income received in the preceding calendar by every citizen of the United Slates, whether residing at home or abroad, ami every person residing thereju, whether said gains profit* or income be levied from any kind of property, rents, interest, dividends or salaries, or from any profession, trade employment or rwfttiw ewried on in Uw United States or elsewhere, or from any other source wbateyer, a tax of 2 per centum on the amount so derived over and above four thousand dol lars ; and a like tax shall be levied, collected and paid annually upon the gains profits and income from all property owned and of every bnsiness, trade of profession carried on in the United States by persons re siding without the United States. And. the tax herein provided for shall be assessed, by the Commis sioner of Internal Revenue and col lected and paid upon the gains, pro fits and iucoine for the year ending thg thirty-first day of December next proceeding the time for levying, col lecting and pitying* said tax.” ARE VOTBRING I Summer Excursion Rates From Darlington.
