The State Fair in Columbia last
week was one of the largest and best
ever held in the history of the State
Agricultural and Mechanical Society,
and everybody who feels any interest
in the success of the organization is
more than pleased at the results. In
every department the exhibits were
more numerous and varied and of bet
ter quality than those of any previous
Fair. We spent Thursday and por-
ton of Friday ut tho Fair, and the
crowd i'll attendance was generally re-
garded as the largest ever seen in CO.
lumbia. In fact, the grand old capital
city was packed and jammed with peo-
pie who had come from every section
OF the State to greet old friends and
see the sights, and it was tho
best natured crowd we have
ever seen assembled on any occasion.
Everybody seemed to be in n good
humor and wearing tleir happicst
smiles. The citizens of Co,,.mbia
manifested more interest than ever
before in the Fair, and provided for
the comfort and convenience OF their
thousands of visitors exceedingly well.
Many OF them threw open their homes
and OF ,rtained their friends in royal
style. On the Fair grounds and in tho
streets at night there were plenty Of
amusements for the visitors. Colum-
bia is the most centrally located city
in the State is ensilv reached by tho
railroads from every section of the
State. andis the proper place to hold
the State Fair. If C0lumbia's citizens
will only go little deeper into their
pockets every year and exercise little
more energy, they can make the State
Fair big success and, instead of run
ming it only fonr days, keep it open ten

The Winnsboro Ncrs and Herald is
surely correct when it says tho utter
ances OF papers 30 disreputable as the
New York Sun can not affect the fame
OF Gen. Robert f. Lee, and indeed if
his name should be omitted from the
"Hall of Fame" his name would not
lose it's greatness. The greatness of
Robert E. Lee is fixed. 1t does not
need n "Hall of Fame" to establish it..
The so-called "Hall of Fame" will
amount to nothing anyway. The
names selected show that it is pecu-
liarly sectional, and posterity will note
this when they read the true histories
of this country.

The election passed off very quietly

FACE THE MUSIC.

Along this time of year, and especial
ly of a year like the present one, the
struggle between honesty and dis
honesty begins in the hearts of many
people. There are so many good cx-
cuscs for not paying what we owe, now
that paying time has come ii is s0
much easier to dodge or put Off crcdi-
tors than to take the hard earned and
scanty supply OF money ana pay up.
In fact the temptation is not confined
to those who car harciy or not quite
make buckle Gnd tongue meet. it
spreads like IA infection, along with
the excuse. a, who is in comfortable
circumstances, being unable to collect
from b., who 5 unable to pay, makes
that reason for refusing to settle his
own debt to {. So it goes.
1t is the trut.i that nothing is harder
to do than to face n man you owe and
can not pay. Many man who would
march bravcly to almost certain death
will dodge and shrink and run away
like n coward rather than face his
creditor, and when cornercd will whine
and lie and make promises he knows
he cannot keep and does not intend to
keep.
The straightforward, manly, honest
way is always the best. Seek your
creditor instead of making him chase
You and In ingyou feel like an escaped
j all bird or criminal AFRAID of detcc-
tion. Tell him tho whole, direct, hon
est truth and make the best arrange
mcnts yOu can. 1t will make him
respect you and make You respect
yourself and feel better. The poorer
you IRE the more important your char
acter is to you. 1t is your only capital.
Aside from everything else and ignor-
ing all higher and less practical con
siderations, remember that this is not
likely to be your last year on earth and
that it is likely that you will be- in
trouble some day when n good rcputa-
tion will secure friends for You, while
bad one will deprive you of them
when they are needed; and reputation
follows n man around the world and
clings to him wherever he goes.
Pay up, no matter if it takes your
last red. 1t will be better for you in
the end. II you can pay and won't
you are dishonest. That is the fiat
truth Of it and You know it. You can't
squirm around it. NOmatter how hard
it may be, you have no right to make
1T hard for some other man by holding
back from him what belongs to him.
You have used his stuff, his money or
his labor OF whatever it was. lie
trusted to your honesty and if you
willfully disappoint him you are dis
honest. The fact that others may
have wronged you gives you no excuse
for wronging somebody else.
Anyhow, face your creditor like n
man. DO the best for him you possibly
can. Above all, don't leave him in the
lurch and then go and spend what cash
you have with somebody else. If you
owe man and can't pay him, the least
you can do is to help him all you can
by throwing all the money you can
control in his way.

The excellence of tho agricultural
schools, colleges and experiment sta
tions of the United States is command
ing wide attention. A striking bit of
proof to this effect is that the Govern
ment OF the Argentine Republic has
sent to this country fifty of its y oung
men to profit by what we thus nave
provided. An agricultural writer,
commenting on this, regards it as un-
fortunate that We have room for these
young men. Every faculty of our
agricultural colleges should be taxed
to the utmost with an attendance of
young men and women from the farms
of the Ur.ted States"

LATE POTATO MANURING.

To the Editor:-By the old time sys
TEN OF farming, all the manures were
applied either in the spring or in the
early fall for the winter wheat Through
long years of practice the system is still
observed though the original reason for
the method has long since passed away.
For example, many farmers neglect to
manure fertilize late potatoes simply
because they have not been accustomed
to manure at that time Of the year,
or because the old custom has left them
no manure to apply in the middle of the
season.
Late potatoes require as heavy manur-
irg as early pOtatOeS-eVen heavier, as
a greater return per acre is expected
The manure or fertilizer may safely be
applied with the seed. as at the time
nf planting the soil is at its greatest
periCd of activity. There is no doubt
bowever. but that chemical manures are
more effective thus used than farmyard
manureS.
If early mOWn clover Stubble has been
turned under for the potatoes, the soil
should be lined after plowing, and Ger
man potash salts and phosphates used
and used literally. The potash salts not
only supply the potash so necessary Tor
q coed Dotato crop but also tends to
check any tendency to scab due TO the
lime and the decaying vegetable matter
OF course If a clover or other STUB
hle has not been turned under, nitrogen
ous fertilizer must be used. In elther
case. however. the potash and phospnates
must be used TO insure profitable re-
turn. Manures or feltilzers, are practl-
cally plant food in whatever period Of
the season a crop is being made, tney
are an absolute necessity. While II IS
cutie true that some soils contain large
quantities of available plant food, this
available fertilizer is likely 10 be serl-
ously diminished by the time the late
potatoes have good growth started ana
need liberal supplies Of potash and phos-
phates for making tubers
Of course if a soil IS SO rich naturally
that ample crops OF all kinds can De
grown without nanuring of any kind, we
must expect farmers to be lax IN keep
ing UP soil fertility. Most farmers, un-
fortunately, prefer to defer arrange
rnents for crossing g bridge until they
reach it; a very shcrt-sighted policy.
