Spring the Most Dangerous Of tho
Year.
This Is the most dangerous season Of the
year. 1t may be pleasant, may often seem
attractive, but back of all the pleasant at
mosphere there Is dangeri This danger
comes in some form Of sickness.
Almost any sickness starts with cold or
a chill caused by the sluggish action of the
system That is why SO many people just now
complain of tired feelings, pains In the mus
cles and bones, loss of appetite, spring fever
and similar troubles.
The following is good advice from prom
inent medical journal: Pneumonia and
other dangerous complaints, which re-
suit from neglected cold, can always be
avoided II timely remedy IL taken. When
chilly sensations are felt they should be
stopped Immediately or serious consequences
VIII follow. There is only one way known to
the world Of avoiding cold or chills, and
that L. the use Of a good, pure, strong stimu-
ant Nothing ordinary will do. 1t must be
something sure In its action and scientifically
prepared. For this reason nothing has ever

any dealer to substitute something which is

bridges are taken into account, Russia

Russia has always wanted to reach

country, with the Baltic frozen up hall

seas eternally blocked with Polar Ice.

MIR. DeVore Declines to Run for
the Legislature.

Mr.. EDITOR: Please announce
that I am not one of the "six law
yers" who will run for the legis-
lature in the next primary, as
stated in the last issue of your
valuable paper. To my friends
who have been urging me fer some
time to enter the race, I will say
that I am better prepared to repre-
sent clients IN the courts than l
am to represent the people in the
Legislature, and for that reason
will devote my time to the practice
of law, soliciting all of that busi-
nese that 1 can do, thanking my
friends at the same time for their
| good will towards me. 1 am one
of those who do not believe a
man fit or suitable to represent the
people unless he has prepared him
self for that purpose before he IS
elected, because it is too expensive
to send man there on pay to get
ready for the business after he is
elected, and not having given the
subject, or rather the duties, of q
legislatureman or the wants and
necessities of the people studied
consideration in recent years, /
feel that I could not do justice to
them as representative.

MIR. Bradley's Plan to Plant
Cotton.

10 the Editor of the State; 1t is
fact we'll known to every one that
our financial condition is depressed
Il mean the Southern States-and
it is all due to the fact that we are
getting nothing for cotton, our
money crop; and this is caused,
as we we'll know, by overproduc-
ton. Various remedies have been
suggested. 1t is problem that
has taxed the minds of our best
thinkers and most practical farm
ers for years. That something
must be done is evident, or we
cannot gee future relief.
1 suppose it will not come amiss
for me to give my experience in
tie fond hope that what l say will
be the means of doing something
to relieve the situation. | have
made study of this subject and
shall attempt to give you my
experience.

this reduction is the question. Any
of the plans suggested would
bring the desierd relief if carried
out.
NV plan is this: Let the farmer
prepare as much land for cotton
as he may wish, but when he is
ready to plant, let him plant every
other row in cotton, and in June
let him plant the remaining rows
in peas. This, you will observe,
reduces the acreage one-half, but
does not redace the yield 80 much,
as my experience teaches me.
make at least threeSfearths of
a crop of cotton, and peas without
limit. You enrich your land,
80 that in a few years you can
make bale per acre with every
alternate row in peas, have an
abundance of feed, and conse-
quently fat stock and your bacon
at home. Besides, you save one
half fertilizer, one-half hoeing and
onethird blowing.
We have in cultivation this
year "a, 100000 acres. We will
make (in round numbers) 10000
900 bales. This cotton is worth,
at the present price $250,OOO,0OO.
Now, to follow the pea suggestion,
we would have 100000 in
cultivation, which would yield
100000 bales, or 100000 at Sc,
pound, a gain of s5O,000,000, to
say nothing about the cost Of pro-
duction, which, as I have shown,
would be about one-half.
If it is not desirable to plant SC
many peas, you can plant pindars
sweet or Irish potatoes, with equal
success. I bought ten acres OF
very poor land farmed it as above
suggested, and to-day ! am offered
$4O0 for the ten acres. I am max
ing a bale of cotton per acre, and
corn, etc., in proportion.
Now, Mr.. Editor, what ha:
been done on small scale can be
done on a large one. Let any man
follow this plan and he will have
a like experience.

J. w. DeVore, Esq, publishes
card in this weeks issue of the
ADVERTISER in which he declines
to stand for the House of Repre-

Big Six. The sentiments he ex-
presses in this card, IN which he
declares that he does not feel ca
pable without greater preparation
and study of representing the good
people of Edge6eld in such a posi-:
ton, do credit to his head and
heart. But our friend is entirely
too modest for this scrambling,
get-there. y-all-means age. That
be is competent, abundantly COM
petent, goes with"',t saying; yet
as this modesty is the interest of
his clients, present and prospective,
and his profession, we must let 1t
go at that, hoping that at some
early date he may reconsider and
lend his counsel and his aid to the
law making department of our
State government.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely. receptacle for the
urine, and as such lis not liable to
any form of disease except by one Of
two ways. The first way is from i'm
perfect action of the kidneys. The
second way is from careless local treat
ment OF other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. SO the WOMB, like the blad-
de-, was created for one purpose, and
if not doctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
usinary passage is often, by mistake
attributed to female weakness OF
womb trouble of some sort. The error
is easily made and may be as easily
avoided. 70 find out correctly, sci

or bladder trouble. The mild and the

15O pale Planters OF tue Weet blue
of. Edgrfeld county, has stopped
picking the cotton that still re-
mains in his fields end is thresh-
ing it out.with sticks to be- left on
the ground as manure. He says
at present prices cotton is not
worth picking and he is done with
the stuff for all time.
Read w. T. Bradley's letter in
this issue of the ADVERTISER. His
advice is to plant cotton and pease
together, one row of cotton and one
row of pease. In this way you cut
down the production of cotton, in.
crease The quantity of pease, and
bring up the land to high degree
or fertility. Wherever you plant
cotton this year put peaee next
year, keeping this up until your
land becomes as rich as Texas
