We saw eight or ten bales of cotton

We have heard that Mr. P. S.

Mr. Archie Shaw, of Charleston,
is visiting his ; sister, Mrs. D. M.
Epps. A short while ago he met
with the misfortune of having his
leg broken by a street car. After
being laid up a while lie is now able
do go around on crutches.
Mr. J. 1). Singletary says that he
"will try strawberries under cover

much earlier than in open

half grown berry several days ago.

We have it straight that H. Q.
Askins, Esq., has about determined
to be in the race for the position of
auditor. He hits never asked for
office before. He is no doubt thoroughly
qualified to fill the position.
We do not espouse the cause of any
candidate, but we venture the prediction
that his entry will add interest
to the race.
Miss Essie Marcos finished her

Even the "shoo fly" train is losing
her reputation. She had won the
confidence of the public by being
almost invariably on time. Men
learned to set their watches by her
arrivals and departures. But alas,
for human faith! Evil communications
corrupt good manners; by
keeping company with the "old
tish special" she is contracting the
same bad habit of tardiness.

Mr. Enoe McDanlel, who died
near Jay norae nays ago, lived a

mention. He wan wveoty four
years of age, and his whole life-Was

he was born. When we say his
whole life we donot include the

In the Confederate army. He was
u member of thb 10th So. Ca. regiment
whose fortunes he . followed
and shared bravely and manfully
throughoutthe entire war. He was
a man of influence in his community.
Ten children are left. He w as
laid to rest in the H*nn*h burying

was a member of he Masonic order
thirty three or thirty four years.
He did his work, finished his labor
and is now taking a well earned
rest.

SOIL FERTILITY.
bterMllnir CooelmloM From Bs>
perlmestt With Kertlllirri.
Valuable and thorough experiments
in the maintenance of tbe fertility of
tbe soil have been continned for a number
of years at tbe Ohio station. Tbe results
of these experiments appear to
justify tbe opinion that for tbe crops
and SDila nnder test phosphoric acid is
at present tbe most important constituent
of a fertilizer, with nitrogen and
potash following in tbe order named.
Furtber conclusions drawn by tbe station
are:
Tbe largest increase is only obtain*!
when tbe fertilizer oontsins all three of
these constituents, bnt it does not as
yet seem necessary to use nitrogen and
potash in so large proportion, relatively
to phosphoric acid, ae would be indicated
by the chemical composition of the
crops.
Apparently, phosphoric acid should
considerably exceed either nitrogen or
potash in qoantity in a fertilizer for
j corn, oats or potatoes, while for wheat
the proportion of nitrogen may closely
approximate that of pbocphorio acid.
Nitrate of soda ia apparently the most
affective carrier of nitrogen in common
nae as a fertilizer, bot it can seldom be
used with economy in Ohio because of
the relatively high cost of ita nitrogen.
Slaughterhouse tankage, which is the
carrier of "ammonia" in practically
all the factory mixed fertilizers aold in
this state, ia probably a less effective
carrier of nitrogen than nitrate of soda,
but the cost of nitrogen in unmixed
tankage, when dne allowance ia male
for the phosphoric acid carried by the
tankage, ia so much less than in nitrate
of soda that tankage becomes a much
more economical source of nitrogen to
the Ohio former than nitrato of soda.
This advantage in tankage disappears,
however, when it is purchased in tho
ordinary factory mixed fertilizer, since
the price at which soch fertilizers are
generally sold brings the cost of their
nitrogen to a higher figure than its
necessary cost in nitrate of soda, while
the experiments reported in bulletin 93
of this station indicate that the nitrogen
of the factory mixed fertilizer is not
more effective than that of ordinary :
tankage.
Dissolved boneblack is apparently a
more effective carrier of phosphoric acid
: than rrw bonemeal or acid phosphate, ;
! bat dissolved boneblack, like nitrate
I of soda, is seldom or never nsed in the
compounding cf factory mixed fertil- j
izers in Ohio, because of the lower tost
I of phosphoric acid in other materials.
Acid phosphate, on account of its 1
! comparative cheapness and large sup- j
"lo hoenmn Kfnnftnrrt carrier of
y.j, ...... .... (
I fertilizer phosphoric acid. Our experi>
merits indicate that commercial acid t
phosphate, like slaughterhouse tankage, I
1 is variable in composition, and both
materials should only be bought on a
guaranteed analysis.
Our experiments fully support the inferenco
that the phosphoric acid of heme- i
meal and tankage, when these materi.
als are finely ground, is quite v.b effect- j
! ive, pound for pound, as the "available" ;
1 phosphoric acid of acid phosphate, and
I that these materials, unlike boneblack j
and Carolina rock, require no treatment
with sulphuric acid to make their phosphoric
acid available, provided only the
! grinding be done with sufficient thor- i
ooghneaa. Investigations indicate that
j there has been a decided improvement |
: in grinding within recent years.
Basic slag appears to stand next to
dissolved rtueblack in effectiveness as
a carrier of phosphoric acid. Apparent- !
ly this result is in part at least dne to ;
: the superior mechanical oondition of the
alag meal, as it is au extremely fine pow- i
| der. This material is not treated with j
I acid.
These experiments show that the fer- I
J tilizing constituents of barnyard ma- |
i nure act more slowly than those of com- j
j mereial fertilizers, bat as they cost
j much less in manure it beoomea the
cheapest fertilizer.
The advantage of applying manure to
: the surface Instead of plowing it under
i is strikingly shown.
