We are sorry to report that the
dwelling house and the entire con-
tents occupied by Mr.. Jake Merck
was destroyed by fire Oh Jan. 25th.
Mrs. Merck had gono out to iced
the hogs when broom caught fire
and before she could reach the

troll. She received some severe
burns on her hands while trying to

Of the results of experiments in the
use of fertilizers that South Caro-
lima farmers lose more by the reck-
less and ignorant Use of fertilizers
than any other practice in farm
ing.
And If the advice of these fer
tilizer dealers ls taken in a whole
sale manner as they are given out
to the public, without duo regard
for the necessary or corresponding
increase in the preparation of the
soil by deep p)owing and mixing
with the soil, disaster will surely
follow the farmer that, takes this
reckless advice, and will carry
with him the merchant that sup
plies him. Now the average cotton
grower has it in his calculation to
make each mule cultivate lust so
many acres, with just 80 many fur
rows to the row. at just such a
depth as the nature Of the land
and the strength of his mule will
permit; and to all such cotton
cwers, an increase in the amount
Of fertilizer used, meaus uhe mere
dumping down in the furrows of
double the amount of these concen
trated manures which will
cause in hot and dry weather an

position as in the recent market. The United States Steel stocks were rather laggard in the early stages of the days movements, but were firmly held in the expectation of the favorable character of the statement of quarterly net earn lngs to be presented during the after noon. The retreat of large bear in- terest was an element in the strength Of the days market and some of the covering of shorts was reported to be for London account. The market had to take some of the inevitable profit taking on the days gains by the pro- fessional element and some impression was made on the best prices by this process. The closing was fairly steady but dull.

Czar's Manifesto Sends Stimulating.
 Current Through Financial World.
 New York, Oct. 31.--The manifesto of the emperor of Russia establishing pop- ular representation in national legis- lature sent a stimulating current through all the financial centers of the world, which was as effective in it's way as the more sentimental effect on the worlds population of the historic event. The news this morning was im- mediately interpreted as lessening and probably averting the likelihood of gold exports from here at this time. The effect in the stock market was more widely diffused than at any time in the recent trading. The volume of activity was not, however, expanded and did not reach the aggregate of the most active days of last week. Outside par ticipation in the market was reported to remain small, professional operations making up the largest part of the deal- ings. The relaxation of the foreign ten sion was conspicuously shown in the foreign exchange market which weak ened notably and dissipated the fears of an outgo of gold this week. The New York money market was occupied to-day with the November settlements and the call loan rate was affected &C., cordingly. While stocks showed fair degree of general strength the specula- tive attention was much concentrated on special stocks. Reading and the smelting stocks held their conspicuous
