lative ticket for the primary election,
whereupon Mr.. Gooding executed a
flank movement by getting behind the
pro division Democratic ticket and vot-
ing the whole town of Gooding, nor
mally Republican, for it in the Demo
cratic primaries, there being no opposi-
ton, it required but one vote to name
the Republican pro-division ticket.
With the heavy Republican vote in
tthe- Democratic primaries against the
Democratic antidivision ticket, the lat
er was defeated by so to rs votes.
This left the legislative nominees of
both parties favorable to the Gooding
program.
The committee criticies Mr.. Gooding
for having as a Republican Loader. par
ticipated in the Democrat. primary. 1t
also criticies him for jeora .dizing the
election of Senator Borah and the en-
tire state ticket While the antidi-
visionis: supported Democratic ticket
in the primaries, their candidates were
all pledged to vote for Senator Borah
for reelection. This was not the case
with the pro-division candidates. In
the November election, therefore, if the
ti-divisionists should be disposed to
retaliate they might elect the democra.
tic legislative ticket and throw about
1900 votes to the Democratic state tick
ct that otherwise it would not receive.
The plan Of division is strenuously
objected to. 1t is proposed to slice Lin
coin county from the north to the south
in three pieces, with county seats at
Shoshone, the present county seat,
at Gooding and at Rupert. Good
ing is about Is miles from Shoshone, so
the people of that section find no diff
Guilty in reaching the county seat, but
the people in the Jerome section, being
left in the old county, would have to go
through one or the other of the new
counties to get to their county seat. 1t
is pointed out that conditions are far
more settled in that section and that no
division lines should be drawn until the
future has determined the center of
population and of assessed valuation.
Objection is also raised to the heavy
extra expense of maintaining two new
county governments. The cost of oper-
ating Lincoln county last year was
$4,000, and it is estimated that, with
three counties, the total expense that
must be paid by the same people and
from the same assessable valuation
would not be less than $4,000. The
people of that section, many of them
having been on the raw land only a
short time, are not in position to stand
that heavy increase.

focks. They are easy to keep and
1t Is great pleasure to raise them.
But don't think for moment that
1t does not take work to raise them,
for If you do you will be very much
disappointed, for you cannot keep
poultry Of any kind and make sue
cess without some energy on your
part. Their quarters must be kept
clean, but if you will do your part
they will more than pay you for your
time and labor.
See to the little things; it is sim
pie and easy when you know how.
Any one that has town or city lot
can raise them profitably. The pro-
feSSional man or woman, clerk, Of
flee man, business person, railroad
man, and laborers Of all kinds, those
in bad health and unable to do hard
work and need outdoor life, can raise
Indian Runner ducks. There arc
moro advantages and less disadvant-
ages in raising a flock Of these ducks
than any other business that know
Of
The opportunity is open to you
and now Is the time to grasp 1t.
Others arc making money and so can
you. AS a table bird they are splen-
did; they are far superior to any
kind Of chickens for broilcrs or roast
ers, and do it so much quicker, in
rapid growth and quick maturity,
that they are unsurpassed by any
breed Of fowls. You can market
them at seven to nine weeks Of age,
when by forcing them from the timc
they are hatched up to this age you
can make them weigh 4 to pounds.
Never let them have water to bathe

in, only deep enough to stick their
heads In to keep the nose and eyes
from getting clogged up, and have
this fixed 80 they can not get in It.
Ducks that are let have bathing wa
ter before they are feathered never
grow as large and seem as thrifty.
Some people think because they are
ducks they must have bathing wa
ter, but more serious mistake was
never made. My experience taught
me better before l had raised very
many. Their flesh Is juicy, tender
and delicate; 1t could hardly be
otherwise, producing itself SO rap
idly. BY all means do not force
your ducks, that are to be kept for
breeders, as It Is very Injurious to
them. The quality~of the eggs is
fine; they are quite bit larger than
hen eggs and when you cook one you
have something worth while. Some
people think because they are duck
eggs they should be like all other
duck eggs-have a strong flavor;
they have a delicate flavor and are
far superior to hen eggs; for cook.
ing, cakes, puddings, ETC., there is
no question about the superiority Of
the eggs, and as they become better
known they will command a pre-
MUM over hen eggs. If you are look
ing for fowl to produce eggs in
abundance, and nearly tho year
round, and especially in the winter
when good eggs are high and hard
to get, | would say by all means buy
some pure white egg strain Indian
Runner ducks. They can be depend
ed upon to produce the eggs, and
good ones, too. We might say they
are immune to diseases Of different
kinds-no lice, fleas, mites, roup,
cholera, bowel trouble, scaly leg, no
flying over fences,as a two-foot fence
is all that Is necessary to turn them;
no nest boxes to make, as they lay
their eggs wherever they may be
so 1T is best to keep them in a pen
so as to be sure and get all their
eggs.
Keowee courier. [volume] (Pickens Court House, S.C.) 1849-current, 1912-04-24
The eggs can be hatohed either in

The eggs can be hatched either in
an Incubator or under hens, but
would not advise any one as to which
Is the best method. hatched some
both ways last year, and we got as
good matches from our Incubator as
we did from the hens, but expect to
try 1t little more extensively this
year and see which is the best.
Any one wishing to take up the
business with the end in view of
making something out Of it, and also
have profitable business, must not
begin in listless, don't-care way,
but become enthusiastic and put
little of your time and energy into
II, and can assure you that you will
oe more than repaid. Success de-
pehds on knowing how and on the
way You manage your birds. You
cannot expect to make paying
business Of anything If you let it
take care Of itself.
Have a regular time to feed and
feed as near that time as possible:
Keep plenty OF clean, fresh water be-
fore them. Few people realize how
much water an egg contains. Don't
expect them to drink filth. When
you have little ducklings keen them
growing; it will only take few
minutes Of your time several times a
day to run to iced and water them.
Don't neglect them, and | can assure
you that your efforts will be crowned
with success, as ours have been. We
feel more than repaid for our time
that we spent on our ducks the past
year, as we had only four to breed
from, and they made us profit of
$40 each. Also won some first pre-
miums on some. We have a nice
flock that is bringing us in some
thing every day, as we are gather
ing better than 80 per cent eggs from
them now. ..t
DO not start with cheap stock or
eggs. Get the best that money can
buy You will be more than pleased
when once you have tried them.

You Get Just as
Much

Plant food, ammonia and potash, in
one ton OF S-i-l as you get in two
tons of S.SS-2-2. The list price Of
Sill is $3.50 tor. The list price
Of S.SS22 is $21.44; two tons
$l2.SS, containing just the same
amount OF ammonia and potash as
one ton Of S-i4 costing $29.SO. And
then you save in hauling and in other
ways. Besides this SD is heavily
charged with fish. There is not
much fish in S.SS-2-2 because fish
costs more than S.SS-2-2 sells for. If
it is not decidedly to your advantage
to buy SD instead Of S.SS-2-2 then
we cheerfully own up that we know
absolutely nothing about it, We
make the best S.SS-2-2 put in sacks,
but we use SID on our own farm.
There is no Horn Meal, nor Hoor
Meal, nor Leather Meal in our Fer
tiliZers. Our goods are ammoniated
with a little Nitrate Of Soda. This
helps you to get good stand Of cot
ton by feeding and nourishing the
first sprout from the seed, just at
the time when the sprout needs a
gentle stimulant This also starts
the plant off growing vigorously
when it first comes up. Every far
mer likes to sec his cotton start OF
nicely. Our goods are also ammo
mated with blood, tankage, cotton
seed meal and fish. the best ammo
mates put in fertilizer, and this
makes the best fertilizer put in sacks.
Besides, anybody can tell you the
Anderson goods always run ahead of
the analysis. They are bettor than
we guarantee. We give you more
plant food than we charge you for,
and every drop Of it is available.

GOVERNOR PAROLES YOUNG.
DcfaultinS Treasures Seminole Sc

Columbia, April Isl. Stobo
Young, serving sentence Of one
year in the State penitentiary for a
breach Of trust in connection with
the failure OF the Seminole Securities
Company, was paroled this after
noon by Governor Blease. Young
was secretary and treasurer OF the
dofunct company.
BY the terms Of the parole Young
is required to report to the sli,,erin-
tendent Of the State penitentiary Oc-
tober ], 1912, for further orders, and
II he fails to report at that time he
is to be rearrcsred and compelled to
serve out the rest Of his term. He
was convicted in January, 1910, with
John Y. Darlington, president Of the
company. darlington received a
sentence OF three years.
Charles Pilgrim, white man, of
Oconee county, serving two-year
sentence for assault and battery with
intent to kill, was also paroled by
Governor Blease. This is the convict
for the parole Of whom the Governor
took vote Of the crowd at Ander-
son last Saturday during the course
Of a political speech at that place.
After stating that Pilgrims family
was starving for lack Of some one to
support them, the Governor asked
all who favored the convict being al
lowed to reioin his family to hold up
their hands. A majority of the hands
were raised.
What tho world needs is less good
advice and moro good example.

farmer makes mistake in TAX
ing chances on fertilizer for a diff
ference in price that does not amount
to ten cents an acre. He only makes
one crop Of cotton a year; he wants
a fertilizer that he can count on. The
crops made where our goods were
used speak for our goods. Try some
OF Our goods this year alongside OF
any other goods YOU have already
bought, ana notice the difference In
the crops. That's all we ask
1t looks as If cotton would bring
a fair price next fall. White cotton
out Of a sixteen million bale crop Is
lowering around 1 cents. 1t will be
scarccr early next fall than it Is now.
Your early cotton is usually your
best cotton. 1t will probably pay you
to push your cotton forward and have
a lot OF white cotton to sell early.
We guess you know how to do this.
10 show the value Of fertilizer in
growing cotton we hC"owith give you
the following statistics for the last
ten years:
In States where no fertilizer is
used an acreage increase of 81 per
cent results in ali increase Of 30 per
cent in yield Of cotton.
In the older cotton States, where
no fertilizer Is used, an increase OF
SO per cent in acreage resulted in an
increase Of 12 per cent in yield OF
cotton. While in the States where
fertilizer is used an increase OF 26
per cent in acreage resulted in an in
crease Of n per cent in yield in cot
ton. These figures speak for them
selves. They are gotten up by cot
ton experts.
1t Is reported That the cotton acre
age over the South will be reduced
Il to 20 per cent.
