sPotash 10 Agriculture'' is the title of
pamphlet, published by the German Kali
Works, 90 Nassau Street, New York, N. Y.
This book is known to many Of our resd'
ers from its first edition, published few
years ago. The second edition contains
many valuable Improvements. The con-
tents embody collection of results OBJ
tanned with fertilizers at our Experiment
Stations. It would appear from these con-
clusions that many brands of fertilizers
now on the market do not contain as much
potash as they should for the production
of the best results. 1t would certainly pay
every farmer to write for a copy of this
book, which we understand is sent free.
The Greenville Nc1US Of last Saturday
says: 1.-The Commissioners for Greenville
and Anderson Counties met at the new
iron bridge over the Saluda River, near the
Pelzer dam, yesterday. It seems that it
and that the two Counties should share
equally and pay for it. Supervisor Spec
gle objects to this, saying that as the larger
part OF Pelzer lies in Anderson, and as the
people of that County get the most benefit
from the bridge, he thinks that they
should stand the greater part of the ex.
pense. So meeting was held yesterday,
and the Commissioners are endeavoring to
settle the matter by mutual agreement and
keep 1t out Of the Courts If possible. The
Anderson people claim that the agreement
was made and the contract signed soIle
time before Christmas, and that the new
Commissioners have no right to change it."
