A BRILLIANT SOCIAL AFFAIR.
Popular Young Couple United In
Marriage June 5.
(Written for the County Record).
The prettiest home wedding that
has taken place in the town of Manning
for some time was that of Miss
Kathrine Porcher Gaillard of Manning
to Mr J A Blackwell of Sardinia.
They are very popular in social
circles and will be much missed by
their numerous friends in and
around Manning, as their home for
the present will be at Sardinia. The
marriage ceremony was rendered
after the solemn and impressive
form of the Episcopal church, by
Rev H H Covington, rector of the
Church of the Holy Comforter,Sumter,and
immediately after, the large
number of guests were ushered into
the tastefully decorated dining room
and served with the most delicious
refreshments. The punch bowl was
presided over by Mrs Thomas and
Mrs Harlee of Manning.
* The talented young artist,Mr Wylie
Hodge of Alcolu, decorated the
rooms with much taste in a green
background and white carnations
and roses. The low and sweet wedding
march was played by Miss Gussie
Appelt, and as the lovely strains
commenced, little Miss Eleanoi
Crawford, niece of the bride, like s
little white fairy, and with a basket
rof white roses on her arm, came in
with little Master Robert Black well,
hrnthpr nf the crroom. also in white,
bearing in his hand a silver waiter,
an heirloom of the Gaillard family
for over a century, on which was
placed the wedding ring. Next came
Miss Lou Gaillard, maid of honor,
carrying a lovely bouquet of white
roses and ferns and looking very
sweet in pink satin and gold trimmings.
The groom and his best
man, Mr Henry Blackwell, next
came in, and then the bride on the
Pv? arm of Mr Sam Barron.
The bride looked charming ir
white satin and pearls and carried
on her arm an exquisite bouquet ot
white bride's roses and maidenhair
x ferns.
The company enjoyed themselves
in interesting conversation until time
> for the 7 p. m. train, when they accompanied
the young couple to the
depot and gave them a liberal supit
5>ly of rice and good wishes.
I f Among the large number of outI,
of-town guests were: Mrs M L Mc[
Beth and Miss E P Gaillard of Pir
nopolis, Mrs Rachel Gaillard of Dalrzell,
Mr and Mrs Ben Crawford of
Ourants, Mrs M C Mouzon of Kingstrw
Miss M S RnvH nf Salters. Mr
and Mrs Blackwell of Upper Salem,
parents of the groom, Miss Lucius
of Columbia, Mrs John Cowser and
the Misses McFaddin and Wheeler
of Sardinia,Mr and Mrs Garland,Mr
and Mrs Daniel,Mr and Mrs Thompson
and Mrs Evans of Midway, Mr
and Mrs Nettles and Mr and Mrs
Hinson of AJcolu and Miss Marie
Price of Charleston.
The presents were too many to
enumerate, and among the beautiful
array of cut glass, silver and other
useful articles were many valuable
checks.
Why Fertilizers are Used.
The good farmer will always use
"Commercial fertilizers, and as his
land gets better he is likely to use
them more rather than less, and to
find them increasingly profitable.
Let us see if we can't put the
matter in the simplest form and see
why this is true: A fertile soil, as
one of our correspondents says, is
one which will produce good crops.
.Crops grow in the soil and are made
rap of different substances, some of
which they get from the air and
aoroe from the soil. These substances
we term plant foods. The size of
the crop is limited by the amount of
ihese substances which it is enabled
to get?or rather, by the amount of
the least plentiful of them. This
Jimiting food is nearly always pnosi
phorus (phosphoric acid), potassium
(potash) or nitrogen. All tnese are
i derived from the soil. The mere
amount of any of these substances
in the soil, however, does not of
itself determine the growth the
crop can make. They must all be
taken up by the very small roothairs
of the plants after they have
| been dissolved in the soil-water. If
I ?ny of them be in such combinations
I that they will not dissolve in the 1
soil-water, they cannot be used. If
the soil be hard, so that the roots ,
cannot penetrate it; if it be dry, so j
that there is not sufficient soil-water ,
to dissolve the substances upon |
, which the plant feeds; if it be soggy,
so that air cannot circulate and ,
the bacteria which change the unavailable
foods to available forms |
cannot thrive, the crop will be cut ,
short. If there be lack of potash,
no matter how much of the other ^
plant foods may be present or how ,
good the soil condition may be, the 1
, crop will be limited by that scarcity
rvf nnfock Art tho nthpr hand, if
Ui [A/VOOII. Vil VIIV vvtiv* ? ,
, there be waiting: to be dissolved
, enough of all the plant foods to
make a record yield, and the soil be
, dry and dead so that it does not re,
tain moisture, there will be only a
. small crop made.
, All these things help to fix the ,
' J
[ size of the crop. On most Southern
soils most crops are limited by the (
. poor texture of the soil?by its be- ,
, ing too wet, which shows the need ,
( of underdrainage, or by a lack of (
. vegetable matter, or humus?rather
. than by a lack of plant foods. This
, does not mean, however, that it will
, not pay to apply plant foods?which
. is exactly what is done when fertill
izers are applied. Better methods
of tillage, better drainage, more
, humus in the soil would undoutedly
enable most land to make larger
crops than it now does with much
less fertilizer than is now used, or
. with none at all.
OAtlo Qt*n wnf rinK in

, plant foods. Some are poor in potash,
most in nitrogen, practically
, all in phosphoric acid. Even after
. tillage, drainage and the addition of
humus have enabled the land to
make much better crops, these crops
will still be limited by the scarcity
, of one plant food as compared with
the others. Will it not pay, then,
t to supply this needed substance and
[ thus still further increase the crop?
? Of course, it will. The men with
the richest soils?the truckers and
intensive farmers are today the ones
, who can use commercial fertilizers
most liberally and get the most
profit from them, and it will always
be so.
Let no one talk about getting to |
the point where he will not have to
use fertilizers. Let him fill his soil
with vegetable matter, cultivate it
well, give it good drainage and, if
he studies fertilizers and his soil, he
will use more fertilizers than ever?
not because he has to, but because
it will pay him.?The Progressive
Farmer.

After a frightful coughing spell a
man in Neenah, Wis, felt terrible
pains in his side and his doctor found
