COTTON TESTED BY FIRE.
What the Largest ROundlap Cot
ton Plant i'm the South Has
Done for the Farmer.

The Roundlap bale of the
American Cotton Co., the Lowry
bale of the Planters Company,
and an ordinary sqaure cotton
bale were subjected to a
thorough. going fire test In Lowell,
Mass., June Sth by the Associated
Factory Mutual Fire Insurance
Companies of the United States,
for the purpose of determining
the relative fire hazards of the
several methods of ballng cotton.
Two small frame houses, exactly
alike, and some distance apart
had been erected on a vacant plot
and the space beneath them filled
with boards and cotton waste,
over which ten gallons of coal oil
were poured. In one building
s American Roundlap bales and
one square bale were stored. In
the other. eight Lowry bales and
one square bale. The torch was
applied and the flames were per-
mitted to burn one hour before
being extlnguished. it was as hot
a blaze as cotton could we'll be
subjected to. There was no test
of the square bale, owing to the
fact that when the superstruct.
ures collapsed, which they did q
few minutes after being fired, one
of the square bales fell away from
the flames and then the other was
removed.
1t was evident and generally
conceded that the American
Roundlap bale stood the test
much better than the Lowry bale.
Nearly all the wires on the Low
ry were burned off and the bales
elongated from their original
length of 3 feet 3 inches to 6 feet
and over. This exposed the cot
ton in the Lowry bales to the
flames which were eating into the
bales at many points when the
fire was put out. Two of the Low
ry bales broke in two were more
badly burned than the others.
The American bales stood up
sp!endidly under the severe or
deal. They neither unrolled nor
extended in length, and only the
outer surfaces exposed to the in.
tense flame were burned. This
latest test, was only another tri
umph for the American Cotton
Company's Roundlap bale.
The cotton saved from the fire
will be carefully picked over and
the salvage reclaimed will be
weighed.
1t wa, stated by underwriters
present at the Lowell fire test
that, at a secret test recently
made as to the ability Of the two
different styles Of round bales to
withstand the action Of water,
after being submerged for some
time the wires on the Lowry bales
had burst and none of the Lowry
cotton was recovered from the
test. The American Company's
bales came out intact and wet
only on the exterior, which soon
dried, leaving the cotton as good
as ever

He will be lighting next year and
will be defeated in the race for a

The speech was we'll received,

VETERINARY SURGEON SPEAKS.
The next speaker was Professor
Esom, the veterinary surgeon at
Clemson, who spoke under the
disadvantage of following Tillman
and coming just before dinner.
He, however, sustained himself,
and told the farmers many things
calculated to make them think.
We regret that we are unable to
make only brief reference to
this interesting address.
At this point Mr.. Hicklin an
nounced that after an hours
recess there would be another
address before the institute, by
Prof. w. S. Morrison, of Clemson.
Having left before that time
we were denied the pleasure of
hearing Professor Morrison, but
we learn since that he made a
very fine speech on industrial
development.
This meeting of the Farmers
institute was we'll attended and
should be productive of much
good among the husbandmen of
our county.
Congressman Finley was called
upon and responded in short
speech.
The exercises were opened with
prayer by Rev. Chalmers Moore
of Heath Spring.
A good number of ladies graced
the occasion with their presence.

IS a failure. 1t is not Negro
crop, or a lazy white mans crop,
like cotton. He advised against
sending to North Carolina and
Virginia for experts to manage
the tobacco, but advised in favor
of getting them from Darlington,
Florence or Marion. They know
as much about it and can be got
ten cheaper.
He then addressed him self to
Winthrop and Clemson colleges.
He had been asked if Clemson
breeds any dudes. lie said, "Yes
and all other colleges do" Where
there are 400 boys in brass but
tons, pursued, as they are, by the
girls, it's enough to make dudes
of them. He did not mean to saw
that the girls pursue these boys
half as much as the boys pursue
them. They want to follow their
fathers, and they are right. He
advises every man to marry. He
thinks marriage is a success. His
mother turned him over at the
age of 81 to an Is year old girl
and he had been under petticoat
government ever since. GA farm
sr without wife is worse than a
dog" he said, with much empha-
sis. While there are some dudes
and some emo good" boys at
Clemson, as at every other col
lege, the body of the boys there
is composed of fine boys, high
toned, honorable and ambitious.
Clemson has recently estab-
lished textile department where
boys can learn the cotton milling
business in all it's departments
and the result in few years will
be that our southern cotton mills
will he in charge of southern ex-
perts instead of northern.
Clemson is doing a great work.
A number of her boys are now
filling important, responsible and
lucrative positions. If they had
graduated at any other college in
the state they could not have
secured the places.
But Clemson wants to be let
alone by the pinder eating politi-
clans that are sent to the legisla-
ture, and who are striving to undo
the great work started there upon
the plea of professed friendship
for the common schools. If the
money now appropriated to
Clemson, Winthrop, the Citadel
and the South Carolina college
was put into the public schools,
1t would run them just two weeks.
And where would the teachers

The first Farmers institute ever
held in Lancaster county was held
at Elgin last summer. The sec.
ond day it met at Hopewell. At
both of these meetings several
addresses were made by as many
of Clemson's professors upon
agriculture and kindred subjects.
The institute this year held
three meetings in this county
at Heath Spring Wednesday, at
White Bluff Thursday, and at
Craigsville Friday.
The first speaker introduced at

If any of them, convinced that
there is nothing in growing cotton
at prevailing prices, should decide
to try tobacco as a money crop,
they might know something of
the kind of land suited to it, the
method of cultivating, curing and
marketing that crop. Light-col-
ored sandy land with a clay sub
soil is best adapted for growing
the variety Of tobacco known as
"Virginia Brights," which COM
mands, perhaps, the best price of
any tobacco that can be grown in
the south. He has tried the cul.
tivation of this variety on his
Marion farm and is thoroughly
convinced that it is far ahead of
cotton as a money crop, the net
profit being four or five times as
much.
Senator Tillman was the next
speaker. He had been invited
here to explain the workings of
Clemson and Winthrop colleges,
"but l am first going to tell you
what | don't know of tobacco"
said the senator. He then pro-
ceeded to tell his experience in
tobacco growing. He planted -
acres, which requires three barns
for curing the crop. He advised
his auditors not to undertake more
than four acres the first year or
two. One barn would be sulfi.
cient to cure that. He started
out the first of this year to sec if
tobacco can be proftably grown
upon Edgefield lands. The spring
was so wet that he never got his
land prepared till late, but finally
he got it in good condition. with

said he, in his characteristic style,
"the next rain didn't come" But
he was not to be outdone, so he
hauled water to plant his entire
crop of - acres. He got a good
stand, but his neighbors who
planted their tobacco without the
water got poor stand and soon
plowed up the crop and planted
something else.
