The Forty Still Active.

It now begins to look as if the "Forty"
had awakened from the shock they sus-
tanned by the scheme of Messrs. Til)man,
Evans, Hemphill, Barnwell and others
to forestall them in their efforts to bring
the white people together and take the
credit of the movement which originated
entirely with them. When their COM
mittee was here tho other night and its
mem bers heard of the conference and
agreement reached, they seem to have
suffered from partial paralysis and the
indications were that they would give up
and let the Bchemers 20 ahead. But now
things seem to have changed, and it looks
as If the "Forty" will stick to their guns
and have conference on the matter in
which somebody-the people-will be
represented, to discuss the outlook and
reach some agreementth that will be accep-
table to the rank aud file all political
factions.
The following was issued last night
and it shows that the "Forty" are still
alive and may yet cause the beautiful
plan already presented TO drop into the
background, and one much more satis-
factory to take it's place:
'"The committee of the Forty have re-
solved to proceed with their plan before
the people without asking anybody's per-
mission, while grati6ed at having already
accomplished so much.
"Thos. j. Kirkland, "Sec."
It looks as ifthe forty regard the action
of Ex-Governor Tillman and Governor
Evans in coming down to an agreement
as consequence Of its efforts. They do
not seem to be willing to have small
coteries representing nobody but those
composing them dictate terms. Their
original plan was to let the rank and file
select men to conference in which all
factions could be represented Messrs.
Hemphill, Barnwell, Tillman, Evans,
CAN'T, Irby, Bowden and all others re-
cognized as leaders of factions. In this
way they proposed to let the people come
together and after joint discussion agree
among themselves upon some basis that
would satisfy everybody. Perhaps they
are all the more determined now to &c
ahead with their work of reconciliation
because of what Ex-Governor Tillmar
had to say in talking of the scheme agreed
upon at the small conference the other
day.-.State, Feb. q.

A recent letter to the Boston Globe frona
an eyewitness, gives full particulars Of
the recent massacre Of Armeniars by tbs
Turks. Tho letter says that Mooshis
Paaha, the military governor of the city
of Erzeroum, started into the Sassoun
district last September. by order Of tho
Sultan. burned innumerable villages, and
murdered $500 people. The writer goes
INTO detail and proves conclusively that
recent efforts to hush the whole matter
up as an idle Armenian tale to make pre-
.judice against the Turks, are nothing but
Turkish inventions. There is no longer
any doubt of the fact that the villages
were burned and that the inhabitants
were murdered.

Feeding Horses and Mules on Potatoes

In the first issue of the Planter We gave
the experience of Mr.. w. G. Hinton, of
James Island, in reference to feeding
horses and mules on potatoes. We have
since found two farmers, Mr.. j. G.. Lamp
Icy. of Darlington County, and Mr.. w.
D. Harris, of Florence County, who are
utilizing their potatoes in the same way.
These gentlemen are not doing it from
necessity, but as matter Of farm econo-
my, and are we'll pleased with the exper-
iment. According to the estimate of Col.
T. w. Woodward, of Fairfield, it takes
three bushels of potatoes to equal in nut
riment one bushel Of corn, but even il it
took four the cost of feeding on the pota-
toes would be far less. 1t Is we'll known
that dry summer is very favorable to
potatoes and just the opposite for corn,
and this fact ought to be sufficient to in
duce every farmer to plant them more
largely.-Florencc Carolina Planter.

Siaghtering Horses for Europa.

CH1cAa, J, ILL, Feb. 2s.-Thrse slaugh-
ter-houses for the killing of horses are in
operation just across the Indiana State
line. A lot of 200 horses was sold at the
stock yards Thursday and driven to the
sbattoirs. They are not operated in def
ance of the law, because none of the meat
is sold in this country. 1t is shipped to
Belgium, france and other countries OF
Europe, where there is always ready
market for it.
The horses that were sold Thursday
were killed Friday and cut up, picked
and packed in tubs ready to ship to Eu-
rope. They also manufacture sausage
from the meat. The hides and the parts
of the horse used for glue bring more
than tho original cost of the horse, This
industry has grown of late on account

The Champion Cotton Crop.

To the Editor of The NepS and Courier ::
AS many Inquiries have been made to
me concerning my crop of cotton made
last year, and as am always glad that
others may profit by my success or fail.
ure, have decided to put statement OF
the same in the columns Of your valuable
paper for the benefit of all who are inter-
ested.
The twelve acres of land from which 1
gathered the twenty-one bales of cotton,
averaging four hundred and tifty-one
pounds, last year is a part of tract OF
land formerly consisting of thirty-tWo
acres. When I commenced farming on
it several years ago I suppose it would
grow not more than six hundred pounds
of seed cotton per acre. I divided it into
tracts of sixteen acres each, and at once
commenced rotation of crops, viz, first
cotton, followed by oats, then peas, then
cotton again, always and only manuring
the cotton crop with compost consisting
of stable manure, oOttonseed, acid and
kainit, until had worked it up to pro-
duclng very easily with ordinary seasons
bale per acre. Ofthis land only had
the twelve acres cultivated in cotton.
commenced in the month of February
by ploughing out the stalks of the year
before with one-horse straight shovel
plough, going twice in each row, forward
and back again into this furrow put
my stable manure, three two-horse loads
per acre, no other fertilizer being used,
except one acre on which used sack OF
soluble guauo, tho stable manure supply
being exhausted. used manure from
nv own stable as far as it would so,
then bought from livery stables. I listed
upon this as soon as possible. 1t was
about the 18th of March. I finished the
entire preparation of the land about the
middle of April and commenced planting
about the 20tb of the month. Seed used
was what I had been improving for
several years, now known Az "Whites
improved"
The rows averaged three and hall
feet, the cotton being more or less Of the
cluster variety; wider rows was not
necessary. EARLY maturity and fruitinR
from top to bottom is q characteristic
feature of the seed used.
had pretty fair stand on all of it ex-
cept one acre which had some skips. We
had very little rain from the time o1
planting until the lst of July, but enough
for the cotton to come up and grow
slowly, consequently had very little
trouble with grass. Only one hoeing was
necessary, except chopping out bnnches
of grass after laying by the crop with the
plough. The rains began in earnest
about the 1st of July and were seasona.
BILE until in Septemb Der. Commenced
picking on the 1st Of September and fin
ished on the 18th Of December. In
ploughing the crop used side harrow
first, the other ploughings with straight
shovel with bow, two furrows to the
row, ploushing out the row at the las
ploughing.

to New York recently forty lambs, for

This ought to serve to wake up South
Carolina farmers generally to the posi-
;hi.itaes Of the sheep-raising industry in
this State, If nothing else will. Argu-
ment and advice and suggestion have
fallen on deaf ears, it is true, but the fact
that one farmer has actually received
800 for only forty young sheep-lambs-
scan hardly fail to make good many Of
his neighbors and fellow farmers put on
their shrinking caps" in these hard
times.

Major A. H. White, of. York county,

truly enyiable. Last year he made
twenty-one bales Of cotton on twelve

sonly four and three-quarter cents pound
for his cotton, he cleared on those twelve
acres, after paying all expenses of culti-
walton, $3.50. This record would be
hard to match in the history of cotton
culture.
