BOYS' CORN CLUB
< ORGANIZED.
. SATISFACTORY INITIAL MEETING SATUR
9k DAY - PROF HARPER GIVES VALUABLE
POINTERS THE ORGANIZATION.
Notwithstanding the severe weather
quite a number of boys, farmers
' and other business men met in the
^ court house on last Saturday for
the purpose of organizing a Boys'I
Corn club for this county.
Prof J N Harper, director of the1
Experiment Station work of Clem- j
son College, was introduced by I
^ Superintendent of Education Mc-:
Collough and occupied an hour in
apeakiug with boys and farmers1
about the selection of corn seed, j
the preparation of the soil, fertilizers j
and cultivation.
Prof Harper's talk was full to the
brim of what our farmers need to
know, and it is unfortunate that;
all our boys could no: have heard'
him.
The selection and improyeaifatj
' of the seed is of vital importance.
For a long time the improvement,
of stock by proper breeding has;
been recognized, but the proper'
selectiou and breeding of our seeds j
is comparatively a recent matter.j
He would not advise the boys to j
depend on seed houses for tneir i
seed corn, because corn does not al- j
ways do well from seed grown at a !
distance. Rather procure seed from
some one in the county who has a
good corn, and try to improve it by
proper selection. Corn needs au
abcndance of moisture, and the
sorest way to procure it is deep
ploughing and thorough preparation
of the 6oil, and an abundance of
hamus. Such a soil rarely suffers
for want of rain.
Corn feeds largely oq phosphoric
acid, hot in its latter growth is
an abundant feeder on nitrogen.
V It needs very little nitrogen until
p it begins to tassel. He therefore
advises fertilizing with acid phos ??
phate and mnriate of potash at
planting time, and giving side ap|F
plications of cotton-seed meal, and
W still later using about 200 pounds
of^nitrale of soda: 500 poauds acid
phosphate, 400 pounds cotton seed
msal, 100 fpounds muriate potash
would be a good preparation, using
as much as desired and in addition
the top dressing of 200 pounds
of nitrate of soda.
After Prof Harper's talk the
Superintendent of Education oganiz
mention the'paper. tf j

Improved Farm Methods - Farmer
Sells Bacon-Log Train Wrecked.
; Andrews, February 21:?Considerable
interest in farming is manifested
in this section. Nearly all the
: farmers are busv putting in up-toJute
wire fences around their farms
* L I *
a p.'I running uieir twu-uuiac ((ivns.
This is a farm development that
will in the near future bring prosperity.
The question of improved
seed is a vital one for our cotton and
corn growers to loqk after now he
fore the time of planting. It seems
that our farmers should get information
from Clemson Experiment Station.
This institution is supported
by the State and should aid us in
securing the best seed. Let every
farmer this year try a small lot of
improved seed. Improved methods,
improved seed and improved farm
machinery will bring success to our
community.
Mr W A Moore, one of the best
farmers of this community, had a
wagon-load of home-cured bacon in j
town for sale last Saturday. The
writer is informed that this bacon
was sold for 14 to 15 cents a pound.
Xow, if oue farmer can raise meat
enough for his own consumption and
to sell, where is the excuse for twothirds
of our neonie buvimr all thev
" "" * " I i ~ *
use? Lack of effort ou your part,
brother farmers.
There will be a protracted meetiug
at Harmony church this week, conducted
by the pa3tor, Rev W T
Bcdenbaugh, assisted by Rev Mr
Yarborough. We hope to see a
great spiritual work done at this
meeting.
The G & W railroad had one of
the most serious wrecks last Thursday
that has happened ou their line
recently, and the passenger traio
was delayed nearly twenty-four
hours getting by the debris. One of
the ACL log trains heavily loaded
with logs was wrecked near Sampit
station. The wrecking crew worked
with a large^force of hands day and
night until the wreck was cleared.

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you bare
a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result,and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send forcirculsrs

Ten Doctors
Said He Would Die
"In 1903 we wrote you regarding
my husband, who was suf- 1
fering from heart trouble. lie j
was superanuated by the North I
Georgian Conference. Ten doc- i
tors at different times said he
would die. You advised Dr.
Miles' Heart Remedy and l\c
storative JNcrvme; we diu as
advised, and improvement was ;
apparent from the very first. He j
recovered and the Conference in
1904 gave him a charge. He
never felt better, although he j
has very heavy work and docs !
a great deal of camp meeting i
work. I am so glad we took !
your advice and gave him the '
medicine, and feel that I ought
to let you know of the wonder- j
ful good results from its use." 1
MRS. T. S. EDWARDS, !
Milner, Ga. 1
This proves what Dr. Miles' 1
Heart Remedy will do. Get a !
bottle from your druggist and j
take it according to directions.
It does not matter whether your I
heart is merely weak, or you
have organic trouble, if it does
not benefit you take the empty
bottle to your druggist and get
your money back.
