THE FERTILIZER TAG TAX.

Reports from Clemson College
.sare to the effect that the total a.
-vapunt of tag tax receipts up to
March 18th, is $70,757.54 as against
:S2D1 ,404.59 on the same date last
::s~ar Reports form Georgia are to
IKE effect that the receipts in that
state from a similar tax are very
e. much reduced.
These figures would seem to m
&. ncate that much less fertilizers are
benny used by the farmers this yerr
than in preceding years. 1t is Of
course, too soon to say just what
Me reduction will be as the farmers
iGasre not been able to haul fertilizers
:soD account of the heavy rains anG
bad roads, but it is safe to guess
that the reduction will be in the
s'eighborhood Of forty pc- cent. with
n consequent reduction ia the crop
aof cotton to be raised.
