AS VIEWED BY A LEGISLATOR.
General Assembly Has Done Very Little
As Yet Tbe Lien Law Devitalized.
Editor County Record:?
As there are a good many people in
our county who don't take any other
paper than The Record, will give
you a few dois as to what we are
doing up here.
The General Assembly has now
been in session two weeks and has
done very little of general importance
up to the present time. A3 a
member expressed it, we are going to
spend a good deal of our time "galloDinc
over the State.''
r?o
We have already visited llock Hill
and 011 the 2Gth will go to Charleston
and on the 2sth inst to Clemson
College, all of which is very nice
and cannot be objected to on account
of expense to the State, as the members
are now paid a salary instead of
a per dieni. But we farmers would
like to get away from here, as our
presence at home is very much needed
at this time. The session will
probably last at least forty days.
The fact is, Mr Editor, we have toe
much law,anyway, and I see no reason
why we should not have gotten
through in thirty days.
The House has killed the bill tc
prohibit the taking of mortgages on
crops until after they are up and
growing,and the simple repeal of th(
lien law is not worth a row of pins.
The Senate and the House will
meet to-morrow for the purpose oi
electing Judges of the circuit court
and directors of the penitentiary.
The State-wide prohibition jbil
has been introduced and all the olc
straw has got to be threshed ove:
again. We were in hopes the matte:
would not be brought up again a
this session and let our successors
who will come here next year, fresl
from the people, do what they thinl
best for the State. J S 0

DANGER IN DELAY.
KMiey Diseases Are Teo Danger
as for Kingstree People to Neglect
The great danger of kidney trou.
bles is that they get a firm hold be
fore the sufferer recognizes them,
Health is gradually undermined.
Backache, headache, nervousness,
lameness, soreness, lumbago, urinary
tioubles,dropsy,diabetes and Bright'*
disease follow in merciless succession.
Don't neglect your kidneys. Cur*
the kidneys with the certain and aaf<
remedy, Doan's Kidney Pills, whict
has cured people right here in thi:
locality.
J A Turner, 114 raimetio 01.
Florence, S C, says: "Doan's Kid
neyjPills are a remedy in which ]
have the greatest confidence,
back pained me and I had sharp,
shooting twinges across my loins.
My kidneys were also disordered and
the secretions became very irregulat
in passage. Roan's Kidney Pills'soor
removed these annoyances and 1
have not had a return of kiduej
trouble since. I am glad to tell othei
persons of this valuable remedy."

of Piles. There's 110 need to.

Piles,'" writes Will A Marsh, of

of Buckleu's Arnica Salve, and was
soon cured." Burns, Boils, Ulcers,

Twelve Things to do In January.
[ (I) Start the year like a busi-j
ness mail. Take Jan inventory of j
your property, and begin an ac-;
I curate account of receipts and expenses.
> (2) See that all 19<>9 debts are
promptly cleared off. There was
i never a better time to get even with j
the world and then stay so.
? (:3) No land should be bare in
i winter, but if any is without cover
I crops, plow in readiness for spring
; planting.
(4) See that all stock and
I poultry are properly sheltered.
t Shelter is cheaper thau feed,
t (5) Send for catalogues of dealers
in improved seeds, implements and
1 machinery. Plan to grovr more pro
1 ductive varieties of all crops and
r cultivate with all possible cheap
r horse power instead of expensive
t hand labor.
, (6) Set about getting an improved
1 breed of poultry, hogs and cattle
[ this year.
(7) Clean up the sprouts and
brush and fill up the gullies that
separate your patches and unite
them in great broad, evenly culti,
vated fields.
I (8) Don't go crazy about the old
s line "money crops." There is money
in corn and bay and cattle as well
as cotton and tobacco.
(9) Drain that wet place on vour
farm. It will probably be the most
1 fertile spot you have.
(10) Map out a scheme for yourj
e whole farm, indicating the crops to
go in each field, all arranged with
due regard to the value of rotation.;
e (11) Keep in health by using warm
a clothiDg, fresh air in sleeping
2 rooms, moderation in eating, and
prompt attention to colds. Let
patent medicine3 alone.
(12) See your county school
j superintendent and co-operate with
him in organizing boys1 corn clubs
in your county.?Raleigh (JV. C.)

Hardly! I
j: Well, did it ever occur to you that when you use lumpy,
bndiv mixed fertilizers you are putting* this same proposition
up to your crops?offering ther.j plant food in such >,
shane that thev can't tret to it ? ti
Fertilizers, to do your crops any good, must dissolve in
the soil waters. These are constantly in motion, rising to
the surface during the day and sinking at night?passing
and repassing the roots of the plant, which absorb the food
contained in the water?and this is the only way in which
the plant can feed.
Therefore, whfn you buy fertilizer, you should do so
with the idea of furnishing food for your crop and on the
same principle that you should purchase food for your
stock. It should not only contain the necessary Ammonia,
Phosphoric Acid and Potash, but above all else these
should be in soluble form?the mechanical condition
of the fertilizer should be such as to permit the plant to
absorb every particle of it, and the goods should be manufactured
from materials that will not give up their plant
at r>np tim#> hut furnish a steadv suddIv throughout
the entire growing season.
This is the fertilizer 3'ou should have and can ffet?
in only one way. It is impossible to produce a goods like
this by the dry-mixing of raw materials, whether you do
this at home with a shovel and a screen or buy it from
someone who has made it the same way?the only difference
being in the quantity.
These materials must be ground to a powder, and it requires
machinery costing thousands of dollars to do it
properly. They must then be so manipulated that when
complete, you have a compound, each ounce of which is
exactly like every other ounce, and not a mixture, one
part of which would contain too much Ammonia and too
little Potash, while another part would be exactly the
opposite?and all of it contain plant food locked up and
not available. *
Remember that the chemical analysis of fertilizer is no
test of its crop growing qualities. The chemist can pulverize
lumps and by the use of various means search out
the plant food ; your crop can't.
You can take an axe, break open the box and get the
corn; your mule can't.
Don't risk a crop failure!
