LOOK To WHEAT CROPS.
Tim?* i> Ripe for South Carolina to
Return to ti rowing Cirntu?'.low to
riant Wheat.
Clemaon College, Oct. 13.?South
Carolina was at one time a great
state but never within tin- memory
of men now tilling the soil has she
produced enough wheat. Tins crop
offers one of the main chances to
farmers in the present situation. it
hus nearly doubled In price within
soverul wecke und will probably go'
higher i? war continues until late
winter or spring. Farmen In Kan-'
cos, where record wheat crops was
raised this year, are lying awake'
nfghta thinking about how they will
spend the surplus cash t ey will
have. SVhout Is one of ine liest mon-1
ey crops for the Piedmont now.
No other main makes bread so
universally prised. Itussla, Austria
Hungary, Prance, three of the war?
ring nations, arc largo producers of
wheat and conditions In those conn
tries will cause the World's supply to
be very short,
Wheat, says W. L, Hutchinson,
professor of agronomy of Clemson
College, In dlscusing how to grow
Ihi.'j crop In Bouth Carolina, prefers
heavy loams and clay soils, and Is not
m well suited to the sandy la mis of I
this State as are ??ats. The Piedmont
section is excellent for wheat, especi?
ally the heavier soils that are in good
condition, though good yields may'
bo#mado on poorer soils by heavy]
r< rtillxatlon.
I and for wheat should be plowed
and thoroughly fitted and pu'i?*erised
with the harrow and rollers so that
the seed bed will be firm with a thin
lay< "i" loose seil at the surface.
a drill is tin best Imph ment for
seeding, but ii' a .hill cannot be ob?
tained Ihe wheat may be bowii broad
;a-1 and disked in. Drills apply the
fertiliser ami sow the seed bo satis?
factorily thut this method of seeding
is advised, Ch "d small drills are to
i? bad at moderate cost for seeding
small areas,
Sow live or six pecks to the acre,
adtiscs Prof, Hutchinson. Novembei
Is a good time to sovv wheat though
it i,my be sown a little earlier or
lit i" later with good results, l ine
. i in or Purple Straw ami Ued Maj
arc good varieties to plant. Fultz
and r'ulcastcr the latter a bearded
Wheat, are also good.
At planting time fertilise with a
mixture of equal parts of cotton?
seed meal and acid phosphate at the
rate of live hundred pounds or more
to tin acre; then top dress in March
with on? hundred t > one hundred and
fifty pounds of nitrate of soda.
'I l.e average yield of wheat for the
Cnltcd States Is fourteen bushels to
tin- acre ami Kouth Carolina's aver
a-.c Is ev en smaller, but it is not a

WHY IT SUCCEEDS.
I
Because It's for One Thing Only and
Bosnier People Appreciate This.
Nothing can be good for everything.
Doing one thing well brings suc?
cess.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for one
thing only.
For weak or disordered kidneys.
Here is reliable evidence of their
worth.
Mrs. Joseph Wells, Manning, S. C,
says: "I was afflicted with kidney
complaint anil 1 suffered intensely
front dull, nagging backaches, hcad
a b.' s and dizzy spells. Doan's Kid
i
uey PlHs proved to be just what I
IP eded and 1 had not used them long
before I was relieved."
The above is not an isolated case.
Mrs. Wells is only one of the many (
in this vicinity who have gratefully
endorsed Doan's. If your back aches
I?If your kidneys bother you, don't!
simply ask for a kidney remedy?-ask
distinctly for Doan's Kidney Pills,
the sann; that Mrs. Wells had. 50c I
