It takes pluck and energy and '"pure nerve" to out up a twenty-five thousand dollar building and expect to pay for it by money collebted from subscriptions and advertising. We hope, however, the people of Florence will respond to this evidence of faith and confidence in his town and county on the ]wirt of Editor Aver by a liberal spirit of reciprocity.

We do think, however, thai the piece-meal process involves unnecessary expense in the matter of surveys and the eost of holding several elections to accomplish the same purpose is multiplied accordingly. Already Williamsburg county is bearing the burden of several thousand dollars indebtedness for surveys and special elections and our information is that no provision has yet been made for paying this debt. Surely there is an end t<? it somewhere. If lioi, and the surveys and special elections continue to follow in rapid succession, the old county, what is'le.t of it, will soon U'come fjankrupt We 11<?ik- that all the territory wanting to go to Florence will join in the latest movement and let's get through with holding elections till the next campaign year, which is soon enough.

K Richard Lowe, a negro, was quietly lynched near Mayo, Fla, Saturday morning. His crime was entering the bed-room of a young lady of the Florida town above named. Governor Ansel has appointed Mr John G Richards, Jr, of Kershaw county, to fill out the unexpired term of Railroad Commissioner James M Sullivan, deceased. There were 31 applicants for the position, but Governor Ansel's appointee was not among number. The unexpired part of Commissioner Sullivan's term is twenty-six months. In a box factory at Newark, N J, twenty-five girl operatives were burned or crushed to death in ten minutes last Saturday morning attempting to escape from the burning building. The Census burea has given the population of Greenwood at 6,614 as compared with 4,824 in 1900.

C.t one of the Most Successful Growers of Coro lii the South, Tells How He Grew This Crop, and Gives bis views of Fertilization. This twenty acre field produced 00 bushels of corn per acre, which yould have produced only fifteen ir twenty bushels in the year 1909. Peas were grown and mowed off his land in 1909. About March 1. 910, about ten two-horse loads of ow manure per acre were spread n land with a manure spreader,fob owed by grain drill,SOWING 1,000 ,BS. THOMAS PHOSPHATE TO ?HE ACRE. Immediately afterwards, land was roken thoroughly with a two-horse teel beam Oliver chilled plow. This treating turned the phosphate and ow manure under deep. After breakng the land, used grain drill to pread 300 lbs Muriate of Potash >er acre. About April 20 land vas thrown into four and one-half oot beds, with a two-horse Oliver hilled plow. After this about 20C bs. of Standard fertilizer per acre vas sown in water furrow between ;he beds. Two small furrows were ;nrown on guuuiu, iiwimuk a siuwi idge in water furrow. About May 1st corn was planted >n this small ridge, about eight nches below the level. Corn was )lanted twenty-four inches in drill hree grains in a hill, to secure a food stand without replanting, as il loes not pay to replant corn. Thereore, it pays to use a plenty of seed ;o secure a good stand. After all danger of dying is pass d, thin to < ne stalk in hill and keej iuckers pulled off. When corn was arge enough I ran harrow beside it. .Vhen corn was knee high 1 sided it vith cotton plow. Following in urrow behind cotton plow, with n nixture of 300 lbs. cottonseed meal ind 300 lbs. nitrate of soda per acre behind this came turning plow with arge wing, running deep in beds, htowing them to the corn which >ut about six inches of dirt around he stalks, which covered meal and oda deep, and left iand level. About middle of June, which was ix weeks from time corn was piantd,I broadcast one bushel of peas K*r acre and plowed corn very shal?l.-_l ... ?u.. OW, WHICH Wii?> tllC laat I took off my hat as good-by corn, or it was a dandy. It was so green inu vigorous that it looked almosl >oison. Then came the peas, which learly covered the corn, and such t jrowth of i>eas I never saw before Jeas and corn both stayed green til hucks were dry on the corn, which ihowed that the corn thoroughly natured. I attribute this vigorous growth nainly to two things: first, a high y improved seed; second, the kinc )f manure and the way it was ap olied. ONE OF THE BEST MA NURES IS THOMAS PHOSPHATI ind I CONSIDER IT THE BEST SOURCE OF PHOSPHORIC ACII rHAT CAN BE APPLIED TO ; CORN CROP, and also that it keep the plant green until the corn ha matured, and it is very valuable fo the pea crop that follows. I BELIEVE THAT IT IS ; WONDERFUL SOIL RE NOVA TORt as I had a bottom in mi/ fieh that Ed never been able to make cori on before. Corn would come up an look well till about twelve or Jifteei inches high, then nould die dawn, applied about 1,200 vounds Thorna Phosphate per awe on this bntf<?, and hare t/row a this gear a beaut ifu crop of nrn on this bottom. I A'I TRIBUTE 'HNS ENTIRE I, \ TO THOMAS PHOSPHATE, a / had never been able to make an vorn on this bottom before,neither ha\ / ever used am/ Thomas I'hosphati / shall continue t? use if. 12-1-1t 2 g^I^end^ Yom-Ears! g x Our Tale Bears Good Interest X J X You're open to conviction?
