well, provided these lower grades be ap-
pied in heavier quantities.
So it has been found that corn, sugar
cane, sorghum, grasses and other crops
belonging to the grass family respond
best to a fertilizer that shall contain 10
parts of phosphoric acid, 5 parts of nitro
gen and 2 parts of potash or a 10-5-2
fertilizer. The following formulas are
in precisely the same proportions, only
they are of lower grade, and would give
practically the same results only when a
correspondingly larger application shall
be made per acre-viz, 9450-1.S0; or
8-4.G0-1.e0; or 7-3.50-1.40, and so on. OF
course, these lower grades can be sold
at lower prices than the high grades;
but, as a rule, the farmer will find it
more economical to buy the high grades,
both on account of their cheaper price
per unit and also the saving of freight
the latter being precisely the same, per
ton, for both high and low grades.
APPLYING FERTILIZER WHEN
PLANTING.
While it is certainly true, in our ex-
perience, that the greater part of the fer
tiiizer should be applied about two weeks
before the crop is to be planted, we'll
mixed in the soil of the bedding furrow
that would justify a farmer in making
one or more intercultural applications,
including one at the actual date of plant
ing. The following are such circumstan-
ceS:
ID When a farmer has not been able
to secure the whole amount of his fer
tiliZerS before planting time,
/. ca When he concludes. after his crop
has been planted and is growing, that
he did not buy and apply as much as he
should have done before planting.
80 When the yellowish green color and
want of vigor in the appearance of the
plants indicate that more nitrogen IS
needed by the crop.
We believe it may be safely accepted
as a general rule that a small portion
of Virginia-C Carolina Fertilizer should be
applied with. or near the seed, at the
time of planting. The effect of this small
application is to supply the young plants
with available food during the first stage
of their growth, inducing prompt and
vigorous development. For this purpose
40 to so pounds per acre may be applied
of the same fertilizer that had been bed
ded on two weeks before planting.
A second application of high-grade fer
tilizers may be made at the second or
third blowing of cotton, or at six or eight
inches height Of the plants up to 10 inch
es, or the middle to last of May, and the
middle to last of June.
The in~tercultural applications may be
made in the siding furrow, or the fer
tilizer may be strewn along in the middles
is no need to fear that the plants will
not get the benefit of a ~high-grade fer
tilizeN II put anyhere. on or between the
rows. June 26th is the latest date at
which the writer has ever applied fer
tilizer in this way to either cala or cot
ton. although there is little reason to
doubt that even later applications would
benefit the crop; but probably not enough
to pay the cost of the Fertilizer.

In Memory of Miss Lee Patterson, by
Miss Jessie Riley.
This sweet and lovable young girl
was called away from earth to join the
beautiful angels of heaven just as she
was budding into womanhopd. She was
one OF our sweetest and best young la
dies. Always ready to perform an act
of kindness for her friends that she
could, and her quiet. gentle manners
ond sweet, loving disposition made her
the idol of the home and caused every
one who knew her to love her. She
was Il sweet singer. and a member of
the class here. And while we regret
to lose her, we feel assured that she
has joined the class above. Our hearts
go out in sympathy to the sorrowing
fatt er, mother, brothers, sisters anc
friends, but we can only commend them
to Him in whom she had such perfect
faith, for He alone can comforr. And
we know He doeth all things well, and
some day we hope to meet around the
throne of God, where we will sing songs
of Zion evermore.

The farmer cannot be too alert
against the swindler. There are
all kinds of schemes to catch the
unwary. Out in Colorado a cou-
pie of sleek fellows have been
working astock food swindle they
approach a farmer and ask him to
be their agent and to take a ton.
They send, or rather promise to
send, a man to sell the first
ton. The farmer must sign an
order for the first ton and also a
note for $3.50. He is to sell the
stock food at ten dollars a hun
dred and keep $3.50 a hundred
for his trouble. After the shy
sters get the note that is the last
heard of them nor does the far
mer receive the stock food. The
note eventually turns up at some
bank and has to be paid under the
law for the third party is always
such an innocent cuss that he
has to have his money good or

fish from government fish hatcheries

cannot be furnished for a caretaker
for fish shipped from a government
hatchery, even though transportation
is paid for the fish. 1t was thought
that such caretaker could be trans
ported free under the provision in the

Pain and distress from morn to

Get up with a lame back,
Twinges of backache bother you all

Dull aching breaks your rest at

Doan's Kidney Pills will work the

They're for the kidneys only.
T. B. Hunt, Grocer, of Commerce
street, Jacksonville, Texas, says: MY
wife suffered from kidney disease for
a long time. The most severe symp-
toms were sharp pains across her
back. These pains became so severe
at times that she was unable to at
tend to her household duties. and also
unable to sleep at night. She grew
weak, and generally run down in
health. Doan's Kidney Pills we're rec
commended as a certain cure for her
trouble, and procured a box. After
using them for a very short time in
accordance with the directions. the
pains left her, she was able to sleep,
her health picked up gradually and
the kidneys were restored to a healthy
condition. We believe Doan's Kidney
Pills to be all they are represented,
and cheerfully recommend them to
others suffering from similar trouble"

And the peanut factory at Green

there is no reason why they should

GRAND OLD TEXAS.

Hon. Cato Sells, prominent citizen
of Iowa, who recently moved to Tex
as, and will make this great state his
future home, paid his old home town a
visit the other day, and when inter
viewed by a reporter of the Cedar
Rapids Gazette, made the following re
marks concerning Texas, none OF
which, to our mind, has been eXag-
gerated in the least, and there is no
native born Texan that could read
these remarks and not feel extremely
proud of the fact that he is Texan
His remarks were as follows:
Texas has splendid specimens OF
good citizenship. Brave, brainy aud
generous, always ready to stand with
unflinching devotion to conviction,
ever able to sustain themselves intel
lectually and never indisposed 20 con
cede to the force of logic or decline
chivalrous courtesy to friend or foe.
They are at once as brave as they are
forgiving. and as.capable as they are
aggressive. A law-abiding, industrious.
patriotic, home-loving and devoutly
christian people.
No one can make a mistake by go
ing TO Texas. 1t is practically impos
sible to make an intelligent invest
ment there, in land or otherwise, that
will not be profitable beyond expecta
tons.
Texas is not only incomparably the
largest state in the Union, but it pro
duces more of almost everything than
any other state.
Texas produces one-fourth of the
worlds cotton 1t has more corn
lands than Iowa 1t has more wheat
lands than both Dakotas. More fruit
lands than California More timber
than Michigan. More rice lands than
all other states combined. More mar
bic and granite than Vermont and
New Hampshire. More oil than Penn.
sylvania. More iron than Alabama
More than 10000 squire miles of coal |
fields. More cattle and mules than
any other state More railroad mile |
age than any other state.
There are more improvements in
process of construction and greater |
demand for building material than
any other state. There is greater de
mand for labor, both skilled and un.
skilled, and at better prices, than any
other state.
Texas has more thriving small
towns, more prosperous cities and
fewer stagnation localities than any
other state. Texas is growing in pop
ulation faster and win soon have more
people than any other state, except
New York, and the time is not far
distant when it will be a dominating
influence in the commercial, indus
trial, agricultural, financial and politi-
cal affairs of the United States.
There is greater opportunity for any
man, rich or poor, in Texas, than in
any other state of the union.
There is more state pride and great
r loyalty to Texas, on the part Of
Texans. than any other state.
