suggest ia Plan by which you can get n

(very successfully cotton seed and acid

the cotton ssad at 25 per bushcl.
And | fcef satisfied that ton of the
compost is equally as good as the fer
tilizers sold in Charleston at from IS to
$50 per ton. | intend to compost the
coming season ton acid phosphate,
ton cotton seed and l t,n stable manure
together, which will give 3 tons tor
about $50, or say $50 per ton. And
feel satisfied that each ton pr perly
compostcd will do as much good as

besides the outlay will not he oyet 81
for three tons cotton seed and stable
manure we have at home We can buy
the acid just as cheap now as later and
think the sooncr We make our com

If farmers will only put themselves
to little more tr,uble and try I his
method they will soon fnd that they
will make good crops, and have on hand
more money in the fall than those who
stick to the old plan Of buying ut
cxhorbitant prices because it puts them
to no trouble in tho spring. (The
trouble comes, however. ia the Fall.) [

little fertilizers will be DO ,ght rs it is
