Judge Carrigan has made us an

preventing the Judge from making

Letter From LeWisville.
LEw1svILLE, S. G.

HiulSH Lu, 1otO.
Editor Orangcb",y Ncps and Times:
The mild and beautiful weather
lasi Saturday occasioncd g-ca. many
visitors to the town Of Lcwisvillc.
And more especially, and as All incen-
tive to such large gathering, was
the 'act that the meeting had ad-
lonrncd over rom the preceding Sat
n:day TO hear the report Of the com
m!''ce that had been appointed to
wait upon and acquaint the Governor
OF The ontragcs already reported.
hr. ". +. G. Bates Of the commit
i"e read The result Of their labors,
which seemingly accorded with the
@leN~ Of those present, and was
Itnu. adopted.
.is, ! would state just here, that
~ ;i.,,> received letter from the
Govrli'"r, which was published IN the
Charleston NcwS au0 Courier. It has
some sisniiicationand i'll my judgment
will have tendency to arouse all
officers of that class to q more rigid
enforcement of the law, and m ore
exemplary performance o: the duties
to which the Governor through the
people have rcposcd in them. Dctcc-
tive j. j. Mitchell has been at work
under his commission and has pretty
well detected some Of the fcnds of the
Smell robbery. A preliminary cxami-
nation will be had to-day before H. P.
Cooke, Trin!Justicc Of Lcwisville.
4 Later in the afternoon of last Sat
urday travelling political meeting
was organized with j. J. Mitchell MS
Chairman.
The crowd, about two hundred in
number, marched through the prinri-
pie streets, vocnlizing some of the
modern national airs. Hating at
MIR. 3. Jacobson's store, they called
upon various gentlemen present to
address them, which was complied
With. Some Of the speakers whicd
away the time allowed in discussing
the merits vf the county officials, and
advocating great change in the en-
suing election. OCCASIONAL.

wants. His advice is just as applica-
bic to the farmers of South Carolina
MS to Georgia, for our geographical
position is too nearly the same for
The general rules OF agriculture not
to apply equally well in both States.
The Doctor, after giving the anaIy-
ses OF over one hundred commercial
fertilizers, tells fearful tale about
the debit side of the balance sheet on
tho subject of commercial manurcs
against the famcrs of Georgia. Are
we prepared to say the same truths
COULD not be told Of us in South Care
lima? All of US buy fertilizers and
ere compelled to take IS truth the
published reports of interested par
tics ms to their value as manurcs. and
seldom ask ourselves the question
could we not do better? Let us read
the following and see where Dr.. J.
advises an immense saving to the
farmers of Georgia, and take the
same advice to ourselves.
The average cash price per ton of
the fertilizers sold in Ccorgia during
the season Of 1915, to be used
alone, is fi'ty.onc dalIars. There have
been forly-eisht thousand six hundred
and ior'y-cight tons reported to this
Department as sold in Georgia dur
ing the season ending May 1st. This,
at fifty-onc dollars per ton, gives an
expenditure In cash, or It's equivalent,
Of s2,4S1,o4S, in Georgia, for fertiii-
zcrs, or nearly t'co and ahar millions Of
dollars!
The best acid phosphate can be
purchased Mt forty dollars per ton.
Using five hundred pounds of acid
phosphate to the ton, composted with
cotton seed and manure, it will be
necessary to purchase only one fourth
the commercial material to make the
same number Of tons of fertilizers Of
equal agricultural value. Only twelve
Thousand one hundred and sixty two
tons of acid ph osphate would, there.
fore. be required to make all the ferti-
1zcrs uscd IN Georgia, which, at forty
dollars per ton, would involve an out
lay Of only S4S6, ,4S0. instead Of So
4S1,o4S! This would be saving 10
the farmers Of Georgia Of 1 ,994,56s in
the cost Of fertilizers for the present
crop! Add te this the freight which
would be saved on the thirty-six
thousand four hundred and cighty-six
tons, the purchase of which would
thus be rendered unnecessary safivc
dollars per ton, (Which is pcrhSYs less
than an averagc,) or slS2,43O, and
we have a total amount saved to the
farmers Of the Slate, by the compost
ing system, Of s2,l7Go9S; or an
average of sl5,SS3 to every county;
or more than fifty dollars to crcry
farmer in Georgia.
1t is more than The aggregate lax.
able property of one hundred and two
of the one hundred and thir,yscvcn
counties Of the Stale!
1t IS more than twice the annual
State tax OF Georgia.
It would pay the whoc debt Of
Georgia i. four years!
It's seven per cent. Of the value of
the whole cotton crop OF Georgia.
Farmers, study well these figures.
If you will adopt these suggestions,
you will save enough in one year 10
pay the present expenses of the State
Department Of Agriculturc.f far mare
than one hnn'lrcl and Gfy ycars.-
