A Good Formula.

If you have the cotton seed meal,
as yon ought to have, to get high
grade fertilizer, mix the following:
1000 pounds l6 per cent acid.
200 pounds muriate of potash.
500 pounds cotton seed meal.
That would analyze 9 per cent
phosphoric acid, So of potash and
of ammonia. If you used IA per
cent acid it would give you s per
cent instead of 9.
You cannot get very high grade
by mixing kainit and cotton seed
meal. This is about the best you
can do with these ingredients:
700 pounds of acid l6 per cent.
500 pounds of kainit.
500 pounds of cotton seed meal.
The analysis would be Go 3.5-
8. That would be good for cotton
or corn. .-Spsrtanburg Journal.

A bright and prosperous new
year to The Advertiser and its
many readers. We missed the Ad-
vertiser's weekly visit in our home
last week and are anxiously await
ing the new years edition. AS we
are entering upon a new year with
a bright outlook for the future, let
us all try to be better men and wo-
mtn and to live nearer God than we
have in the past year. And just a
word to our young boys and girls.
Study harder than you ever did,
love your teacher more, attend
church and Sunday school more
regularly. and last but not least of
all, love and respect your parents
and consider the hardships they un-
dergo and the sacrifices they make
for your good.
The Christmas tree given by
Miss Mealing for her school at
Gardnerville on Christmas day was
quite a success. The children recit-
ed beautiful Christmas pieces and
they showed that they had been
carefully trained by their efficient
ceacher. The song service was very
pretty and impressive. Santa arriv-
ed in due time to deliver his many
presents to the children. We were
all glad to see Santa and hope he
won't forget to see us again. Many,
many thanks to Capt. Herbert L.
Bunch for so kindly assisting in
the song service. Come again Capt.
we are always glad to see you.
Mr.. E. G. Miller of Golfers and
Miss Ruth were guests of Mr.. and
Mrs. H. S. Gardner on Christmas
day.
We are glad to report Mr. J. M.
Gardner and family convalescing
from their recent attack of grip.
Well, boys, leap year has left
the girls for while and now is
your chance to be up and dong.
There are a few girls left from
whom to select your companion.

Interesting Figures From the
National Agricultural De-
Dartment.

The last report of Secretary Will
son, as head of the Department of
Agriculture, which covers the
achievements of sixteen years, the
time "Tama jim" has served as
chief of this great branch of the
government service, is crowded
with interesting facts and shows
what marvellous growth the coun-
try has had since Mr.. Wilson came
to the chiefship of the department.
The dairy cow ia one of the princi-
pal producers of wealth on the farm
and the value of her products in
1912 is estimated at about $780,
900, 900, an amount which exceeds
the value of the cotton lint and is
nearly equal to the combined value
of lint and seed.
The lowly hen is another of the
wonderful producers, it being esti-
mated that she laid during the year
1912, 1,7O0, 900, 900 dozen eggs and
if an egg is only worth a cent and
three quarters it gives the tidy sum
of $35O,ooO,OOO, and if this is add
ed to the value of the fowls raised,
the products of the poultry indus
try on farms amounts to about
$4,000, 900. This nearly equals
the value of the wheat crop.
The animals sold from the farm
and the animals slaughtered on it
together number about ILL., ,00O, 600,
and the farm value of these animals
is estimated at Sl,930, 900.
Most productive of all aericuitdr-
al years in this country has been
1912, declares the report. The
earth has produced its greatest an
nual dividend. The sun and the
rain and the fertility OF the soil
paid no heed to human controver-
sizes, but kept on working in coop
Grafton with the farmers efforts TO
utilize them. The reward is high
general level of production. The
mau behind the plow has filled the
Nations larder, crammed the store
houses, and will send liberal sup
plies to foreign countries.

notwithstanding the frivolities
.ofsthe season incident to a false no
ton as to Christmas observance the
union meeting of the 3rd division
of the Edgefeld association met
at the Red Oak Grove church, and
had good meeting Saturday and
Sunday. DR.. D. A. J. Bell the mod
orator who has recently moved to
Mccormick was with us and pre-
sided, though he announced that at
the next meeting which will be in
March with the Clark's Hill
church, at which time election
of officers would take place, that he
could not serve longer as moderator,
as he now lives in the Abbeville as
sociation. The queries were all in
terestingly discussed on Saturday.

ans, Rev. P. H. BusSey, Rev. G.
w. Bussey and Rev. T. E. Seago
taking active part. Bro. Leggett
was also with US and contributed
his part to the interest of the occa-
sion. He is also colporter for the
association and displayed his books,
selling many to the delegates and
visitors. Sunday morning after de-
votional exercises Rev.P.W. Bussey
preached a most excellent sermon
to large congregation. He was or
his native hearth and his people are
proud of him and justly so. After a
sumptuous dinner Rev. T. E. Seago,
preache a most helpful and prac-
tical sermon. All were delighted to
hear him again. The collection was
given to aid young ministers at
Furman, seven dollars and some
cents. 1t was good union in the
opinion of all. We look forward
with happy anticipation to the next

lowing the service, the body was

Mrs. Iona Ivy, Of Greenwood,

one of sadness and the affairs were
all put aside.
Mr.. and Mrs. bessie Hogan, of
Congaree, visited relatives here dur

Some time during the night OF
last Thursday, the rooms of the
pressing club were entered and
clothing taken, and on the same
night the store of II. w. Crouch
was entered and a quantity of mer-
chandise was taken, the burglar en-
tering by breaking the glass door at
the rear. It is supposed that the
same party was guilty of both the
robberies as some of the clothing
from the club was left in the store.
There seems to be no clue to the
affair.

What aPer Cent Means and
How 10 Use it in Buying

-
HoWo Use it in Buying
Be Fertilizers.
There is nothing that seems to
bother the average farmer more
than the percentage of plant food
in various combinations of materi-
ais. Per cent is simply an abbrevi-
'aLionTfor per centum or per hun
dred. tAcid phosphate of l6 per
cent. means simply that the article
has sixteen pounds of phosphoric
acid in each 100 pounds, the rest
being made up of plaster and vari-
GUS earthly matters found in the
rock from which the phosphate is
made. Now, knowing the amount
of each elementary material in 100
pounds, it should be easy to come
atSthe percentage that each would
bear;to ton, orr, 900 pounds. For
instance, ifyou want 8 per cent of
phosphoric acid in ton of mixed
goods and have the 16 per cent ar
ticlesto make it with, 8 per, cent
means, as I have said. eight pounds
in each 100 pounds. Then 8 per
censof twenty hundred pounds, or
a ton, would be l60 pounds. Now,
how much of the l6 per cent acid
phospate must we use to get this
lso pounds !? Evidently 1000
pounds, since thereis sixteen pounds
ineach 100 pounds. Then, know
ing tie percentage of the various
plant foods in the materials you use
for making a fertilizer, it should
be easyfto come at the percentages
in the ton.
Cottonseed meal will have about
seven pounds of ammonia in the
100 and about 10 pounds ofapotash,
and about. three pounda of phospho-
ric acid in each 100 pounds.
KANT has an average of twelve
pounds Of potash in each 100 pounds
while; muriate and sulphate of pot
ash Will have fifty pounds of potash
in each 1oopo4nds.
y DrEd blood will average lot
spouIfs of nitrogen (12.75 pounds
of asonia1 and; l.9i pounds of
.phosphoric aoid.
Fish,scrap has s.s pounds of am
monia in each 100 pounds, and 8. .25
pounds of phosphoric acid. Nitrate
of soda has l5.7 pounds of actual
nitrogen in a readily available
form, for all the ammonia in the or
ganic materials must be changed by
the soil bacteria to nitrates before
it is used, for plants seem to take
nitrogen only as nitrate, the com
bination of the nitric acid with the
lime or potash in the soil. In using
thematerials in mixture when cot
tonseed meal or fsh-scrap is used,
you must take into account the
phosphorlc acid and potash as well
as the ammonia in order to be ex-
act, tho these are used mainly as a
source for ammonia. Ammonia is
a hydride of nitrogen, and is only
somewhat less than So per cent
nitrogen. That is in each 100
pounds of ammonia there will be
about eighty-ive pounds of actual
nitrogen. The fertilizer men put
it rs ammonia n the sacks because
the figures look larger. Now with
these various materials used in max
ing a fertilizer, it should be easy for
any one to find out how much of
each will be needed for a certain
per centage, or pounds per hundred,
in a ton.-Progressive Farmer.

Many Attended Banquet.

Friday evening the alumni banquet
was given at the Mckenzie hotel,

ing which time the various classes re-
called happenings of happy school
days. At 8 o'clock the company
marched down in twOs and threes to
the dining room, which was splendid

a variety Of toasts, which we're APP
%prOpriate and interesting. Miss Laura
Belle Ward was tOastmistress and
was fully equal to the occasion. Re-
sponses were given by the following:
Misses Agnes Orr, Elizabeth Reming-
ton, Julia Budlong, Cecil Burton, Don
aid Mcdonald and J. w. Foley. Wit
in~terspersed witA plenty Of humor
marked the various tOasts, and while
each years banquet seems more bril-
liant than the last, it is doubtful If
any has been given in Bismarck
which was mora brilliant than the
one of FRIDAY evening. Prof. and
Mrs. c. c. Root, v. Bolt and Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Moore were guests at the
banquet. The committee in charge of
this function was, Miss Odessa Will
