Pastures and Hay for the South.

There are few sections in the South
where good pasture grasses of some
sort do not thrive, and on most
of the lands of the Piedmont and
mountain country the finest sort Of
permanent sod can be maintained.
The fact is, that the Southern cot
ton farmer has been all his life fight
ing grass, and he breads nothing
more than Bermuda sod, the finest
summer pasture grass in the United
States in it's proper climate
1t is not a good thing to have in
cotton field, of course; but I knew
one of the most successful cotton
farmers in South Carolina, who. when
he was living, always had a perma-
nent pasture of Bermuda grass. and
had fine cattle, fine sheep and fine
hogs, and grew cotton with more sue
cess than most farmers, seldom MAX
ing less than q bale an acre. and Of
ten more, and he had no trouble with
the grass getting into his fields
Then in the upper Piedmont and
mountain country, where Bermuda
is out of it's element we grow orchard
grass, Virginia or Canada bluegrass,
the latter as permanent a sod as
Bermuda, and green all the year.
Then in the eastern coastal and south
ern sections the Texas bluegrass
thrives wonderfully as a winter grass,
and is excellent to mix with the Ber-
muda, for it just begins to grow when
the Bermuda turns brown.
But to get good pastures we must
treat them we'll. We must prepare
the land and seed thickly, and then
by annual top-dressing we can main
tain and thicken the sod indefinitely.
Therefore, hope that all of our read
ers will study closely what Mr.. French
says about pastures.
Then as to hay. There is no part
of the country which can ocmpete
with the South in the production of
great crops Of the best of hay from
cowpeas, soy beans and velvet bean.
in the various localities. The South
ern dairyman or stock feeder can
grow all the protein he needs, while
the Northern man buys it in grain
But with cottonseed meal secured in
exchange for seed, legume hay that
can be grown after a small grain
crop, and corn silage, the Southern
stock feeder has a great advantage
over the stock feeder in the North.

w. .. Jennings alias j. w. Oliver
alias j. S. Sanders, young white

the slickest swindlers who has paid
this city visit since the advent of
Professor j. A. Goodwin, has been
lodged in jail, charged with the Sc
rious offense of obtaining money un-
der false pretenses.
1t seems that Jennings for that ap-
pears to be his real name, has been
for several weeks going among the
colored people in the city, pretending
to be a solicitor for health
and accident insurance company, and
has in this way managed to realize
quite a neat sum of money. He
would go, it is stated, to a prospec-
tive customer, explaining that he was
the representative of an insurance
company, and Offering his victim
membership in the company, provid-
ed he was paid the sum of s1.25 ION
account" and he promised his dupes
that he would return in about ten
days with the policy duly filled out.
He gave receipt for all money re-
celved in this manner, signing most
OF them with the name, j. S. Sanders.
He stated that his office was over
DeLorme's Pharmacy, and it is said
that numbers Of those whom he has
swlndled have been inquiring in
vain for Sanders insurance office"
Jennings was not content with
plying this trade alone but was
killing two birds with one stone" as
he was also selling patent medicines.
and selling them without a license.
The police had been on the watch
for Jennings for several weeks, but
ne managed to keep out Of their
sight until captured by Sergt. Nc

afternoon.
Jennings will be given a prelimi-
nary, before Recorder Raffield az

CONDITION OF COTTON CROP.
Improvement Is Shown Though Open.
ing Is Quite Slow.

Memphis. Tenn. Sept. 1.-THE
Commercial Appeal tomorrow will
publish the following summary Of
cotton crop conditions:
"a moderate improvement in the
cotton crop Is indicated during the
week In all States east OF the Missis-
sippi river and In arkansas. Rains
fell In nearly all sections and the
plant was stimulated to better growth
and shedding was checked. Owing
to the growing condition OF the plant
cotton In all this territory is open
ing slowly. There are sections In
the eastern and central portion which
had little or no rain and complain
Of severe shedding and expect a short
crop. These places pull down the
general average somewhat though as
an offset are some reports OF very
excellent crops.
I'm Texas II is shown that the rain
fail was not general. being confined
TO northern central. northern and
western counties. The benefit in the
central and northern districts will be
considerable II the FROST date Is suffi-
cientiy deferred. Correspondents say
that rain now would be Of no benefit
In the South and that the moisture
In the drought stricken West came too
late to save the cotton. Oklahoma
was hoiped by rains. but there Is
rather widespread complaint OF boil
worms which are very active on
some OF the lowlands.
Outside OF Texas cotton Is open
Ing slowly. In the latter State the
reverse Is true and farmers are SELL
ing as fast as the gins turn out the
bales. Elsewhere the early cotton
Is being sold at prevailing prices"

Letters of Recommendation by Militi,
Officers of National Guard.

A number of the officers of the
National Guard of the State are try
ing TO secure the reappointment of
Col. w. II. Brock as assistant adju-
tant general. Letters recommending
MIN strongly for the position have
been prepared and signed by several
of the officers.
Several months ago charges were
preferred against Col. Brock by the
adJutant general. There was a court
or INJURY appointed to investigate the
charges. The report of the court was
submitted to Gov. Ansel for a decision
as to the charges. Gov. Ansel has
had the report under advisement for
several months.
The following are the letters in
dorsing Col. Brock for assistant adiu-
tant general:
The undersigned officers of the Ma
tional Guard of South Carolina, be-
ing familiar with the good work and
untiring efforts of Col. William It.
Brock as assistant adjutant general
in behalf of the National Guard of
the State and having faith in his in
tegrity and ability as an officer and
believing that as assistant adjutant
general his long experience in the
office and devotion to the militia will
greatly benefit the service, do hereby
earnestly recommend him for ap-
pointment as assistant adjutant gen.
eral."
Another Letter.
I'VE herewith inclose an indorse-
ment Of Col. William T. Brock to be
used in his application for reappoint-
ment as assistant adjutant general
1t appears that both candidates have
expressed themselves as being willing
to be governed by the wishes of a
majority Of the National Guard Of
ficers in making this appointment
and we feel sure that Col. Brooks
qualifications for this office and his
long and pleasant relation with the
National Guard officers of the State
will make his selection one that will
meet with the approval of a major
ity OF the officers. We feel that his
experience is such that he will be able
to accomplish a great deal of good
for the militia at large, and we our
selves unhesitatingly indorse him.
I'VE sincerely hope that you may
see your way clear to sign the in
closed Endorsement and mail at once
to Capt. A. E. Legare, Columbia.
