They are GOOD! 10<F | Er tkit Cgarttte and Savt Money Planting Fall Irish Potatoes. The greatest difficulty in the growing of a second crop over that of a spring crop is the defective stand, which may be overcome by employing the careful planting and cultural methods necessary at this season. The fall or second crop of potatoes may follow the spring crop or any crcp that is off the ground by the first of July. Planting after the spring crop is especially desirable, as "volunteer" plants from the first crcp will add to the stand of the second crop. Soil?This crop delights in and grows and produces to perfection on a rich sandy loam soil underland by a clay subsoil retentive of moisture. However, the absence of such a soil should not be a hindrance in the grow ing of Irish potatoes for home consumption, as they adapt themselves to a great diversity of well drained soils. Preparation of Soil?Thorough preparation can not be stressed too much. This consists of thorough and deep turning, followed immediate.y by harrowing until a thoroughly pulverized seed-bed is formed. Rows or deep furrows, 3 to 3 1-2 feet apart, should be laid off and well thrown ut, using either a turning plow or a shovel plow. Fertilizers?Both barnyard manure ? and commercial fertilizer ar: used, but the former must be well rotted and judiciously applied; other wise, scab and similiar diseases may result. In the use of commercial fertilizer, a complete mixture, phosphoric acid 8 to 9 per cent, nitrogen 4 to 5 per cent, and potash 4 to 6 per cent, is advised. The fertility and physical condition of the soil should determine the amount of the I application. Barnyard manure, if used, should ' be applied broadcast, 8 to 10 tons per acre, and thoroughly disced into the soil. In the use of commercial fertilizer, it is best to apply in the drill, using 800 to 1,500 pounds per acre depending upon the strength of the soil, and thoroughly mix with the soil; otherwise, a poor stand may be obtained as a result of the contact of fertilizer and tuberj. Varieties and Time Planting?Olf the many varieties suitable for fall planting the Lookout Mountain is usually recommended as being the best and most popular in South Carolina, not because of its superior table quality but by reason of its good yield and excellent keeping quality. Substitutes for this may be such spring varieties as the Cobbler and the Early Rose, each of which is good bat neither of which is nearly ' so good for the fall crop as the Lookout Mountain. This crop should be planted from July 10 to about August 1 depending upon climatic conditions of the section in which it is to be grown? warmer climates calling for later planting. Fall varieties amount to very little when planted out of season and this is especially true of the ? * ?? Lookout Mountain variety. ociier safe than sorry/' >. 0 Pistol Totere. If all the pistol toters could be rounded up and gathered into one vast crowd, we should have the opportunity of looking at one of the sorriest and most cowardly set of people on earth. As a rule the man who carries a pistol with him carries a consciousness of inferiority and an unwillingness to settle his conflicting problems by the usual means employed bv neonle of character. He is a constant menace, since his weak nature renders him irritable and the ready gun in his hip pocket gives him a spirit of bravado which gets him into trouble that he could not be driven into on equal terms. Nearly every daily paper recounts gun work; usually over trival matters. A flash of fire and poof! out goes a life. Now these people who shoot so readily c > not get into fights when they leave their guns at home. From a pugnacious standpoint they are harmless enough when unarmed. This being the case and there being no earthly reason why a well-behaved citizen should carry a firearm, the heaviest penalty should be inflicted upon any person caught carrying one without permission. There are sometimes special reasons why a citizen is justified in carrying a weapon for protection; in that case he should go before the proper authorities and get a permit. To refuse to grant this j permission for good reason would put the law-abiding citizen at the mercy of the thug. If the penalty for carrying deadly weapons without license were made heavier and punishment more certain crime' would be materially lessened for crime and weapons are inseparable companions. It is a singular fact that a pistol and brass knucks comprise the total personal property possessed by many a shiftless youth. With an the opportunities ior prolonged service on the public highways, it does seem a shame that a light fine and a few day's sojourn in jail at the expense of taxpayers are all that it usually costs a thug to be an habitual gun-toter.?Orphan's Friend. A Bolshevics Fate. A Mexican gentleman decided to be a Bolshevist and began by refusing to pay rent. Last week he was buried in Mexico City, in a bright red coffin. The mourners carried red and black flags. The coffin, bright red, will look like any other coffin to the worms. Mere protest?red, white or blue? accomplishes little. Constructive work is what counts. The thing is interesting only because probably, no other man in the world has been buried in a bright ied coffin. o SLATS' DIARY.
