Some Suggestions About
The Use of Fertilizers

the decomposition of the store of
organic matter in the soil. 1t
may be used for Immediate re-
suits on rich land. but it should
be remem bered that the in
crease in crop yield is at the ex
pense of the plant food stored
up in the soil.
Ground phosphate rock can be
l. jed to advantage only on GER
tain classes soils, or in com bina-
tion with animal manure or
green manures-such as are fur
nished by cover crops. 1t is pre-
ferable to apply to the soil in
fall, when the cover crop is
planted. In this way all of the
phosphorus that the cover crop
takes up will be stored in the
soil in the readily available or
genic form when that crop is
turned under. The phosphorus
of this organic matter will be
liberated as nitrification pro-
ceeds and the products of nitri-
fication. such as organic acids
and carbon dioxi d e,
will act on the appli e d
phosphate rock to some extent.
Ground phosphate rock may be
sprinkled in the stalls or manure
pit at the rate of from SO to 25O
pounds per ton of MANURE accu.
mulated, depending upon the
quantity of manure that you in
tend to apply per acre, in order
to'get the proper application of
ground rock per acre. Our ex-
periments show that an applica-
tson of about 500 pounds per
acre give best results from
monetary standpoint. Ground
phosphate rock may be used to
advantage on soils in a high
state of cultivation as there is
a good supply of organic matter
present in such soils. For use
on very poor to ordinary lands
it is aim ost valueless. This ma
terial seems to give compare
lively better results on corn
than on cotton. See Bulletin
17S s. g. Experiment Station.
The reader is referred TO S,
G. Experiment Station Bulletin

terials found on the farm that
contain potash. Of these ma
terials animal manue is the one
most generally available. 1t
will give better returns applied
to cotton than to any other gem
eral farm crop.

The fertilizer situation has be
come so acute owing to- the
scarcity of ingredients upon
which farmers of South Carolina
have been accusted to depend
that the State Department of
Agriculture is issuing in bulletin
form information as to the best
way to meet the situation.
The following is from the pen
OF Mr.. Il. E. Keitt, chemist for
South Carolina Experiment Sta
tion:
The standard materials that
have formerly been used as fer
tilizers are both scarce and high
in price. Many materials are
being pressed on the market as
substitutes, and there is grave
danger that our farmers will be-
come over enthusiastic and
waste considerable amount of
money at a time when they can
i'll afford the loss.
Such material as land plaster
and phospho-lime are being Of
fered at comparatively high
prices. Farmers are being led to
believe that these materials will
liberate considerable quantities
of potash from the insoluble sup
ply already present in the soil.
AS rule, they do not realize
that they have been applying
land plaster for years in the acid
phosphate that has gone into
both home-mixed and factory
mixed fertilizers. Therefore,
we shuold expect that most of
the results to be derived from
this material have already been
accomplished.
The use of ground limestone
for the correction of acidity in
the soil and for the growth of
certain legumes is highly desir-
able, but it cannot be consider
ed cure alp, and If it is
pushed to such an extent that
there is considerable pecuniary
loss, there is danger that it's use
for the above named purpose
will be reduced in the future.
Burnt line possesses certain
characteristics, such as floccula.
tion of colloidal matter and
granulation of clay, to a much
more marked extent that does
ground limestone. Burnt lime
is more drastic in it's chemical
action in that it corrects acldity
more rapidly and also hastens

qua has passed into history. For
three days the town has reveled
In intellectual enjoyment. Lee
lures and music, recitations and
monologues, magic and yodling
have drawn crowds to the audi
torium and churches
An excellent program was ex-
pected from the Radcliffe attrac-
tions, but they have surpassed
our expectations. Words of
praise and congratulation are
heard on every hand. Perhaps
the most frequent expression
used is that ANY one enterta in
ment was we'll worth the price

Two excellent sermons by DIR.
William RAIDER on Sunday were
thrown in for good measure.
A review of the various forms
of the entertainment would be
valueless. Those who attended
do not need to be told wherein
they were entertained and bene-
fitted and those VINO failed to at
tend need only to be told that
tney have missed some of the
keenest of intellectual enjoy
ment and inspiration to nobler
living.
A very valuable and lasting
contribution to the three-day ex-
ercises was the three lectures
given by Messrs. Barton, Swear
ingen and Stevenson. South Ca
rolina is richly endowed with
talented speakers, but no better
could be found within her Dor.
ders than the three gentlemen
selected by the committee.
Mr.. Stevenson spoke in glow
ing terms of Chesterfield's fu-
ture. He urged the board of
trade to wake up and get busy
and insisted on hearty CO. .oDera-
tion by all the citizens. All the
speakers argued that this town
could be made so attractive that
Ckesterfeld's youths will be con-
tent to remain here rather tf.an
seek their fortune elsewhere and
that people from other sections
may be induced to locate here.
So thoroughly satisfactory was
this experiment that a new con-
tract was made for next year
and instead Of fifteen guarantors
as for the last one, more than
twenty citizens gladly signed up
for next year.
The signers Of the new con-
tract are:

WOODROW WILSON,.

New York.-President Woodrow VIII
son has been reelected by the voters
of the United States.
The race was one of the closest in
the history Of the nation. The cleo
toral vote Is estimated as: Wilson,
2S4; Hughes, 247.
The vote was the heaviest in the
history Of the nation, which is respon'
sible for the lateness Of the decision,
First reports from over the country
indicated that Charles Evans Hughes
had been chosen as our next presl-
dent, but with the returns from Cali
fornia and Minnesota, which had been
claimed by the Republicans, it was
learned that the president had again
been the choice of the voters as their
chief executive.
A number OF western states which
had been confidently counted on by
the Republicans to return substantial
majorities for Hughes and Fairbanks
will cast their electoral votes for Will
son and Marshall.
The next house of representatives
will be Republican by at least a ma
jority Of ten. The senate will be
Democratic.
The election was filed with sur
prises, some of them most startling II
character. One of the surprises was
the close race in Kansas, a hitherto
Republican stronghold.
Interest was focused on Illinois
That was officially set down as the
state upon which the national contest
would swing. Illinois went for Hughes
The furnished the surprises
in this state. There were 100000 OF
them at the polling places during the
day.
The labor vote in some Of the rail
way centers Of Illinois caused a de
lection and the state retained it's place
but the swing of business men to the
Republican ticket made up for this de
lection ind the state retained it's place
in the column where it always stood
till four years ago, when it went away
in the three-cornered fight for the pres
idency.
New York state swung into the Re
publican column and her forty-ive cleo
toral votes will be cast for Hughes
and Fairbanks.
Governor Whitman is reelected by
an overwhelming vote. William Ca
der, Republican, has been reelected
United States senator. New YORK
York county's plurality for the presi
dent was n Of the smallest in Tam
many's history. 1t was $4,000. The
same majority was given to Samue,
Seafury, nominee for governor on the
Democratic ticket.
Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin
were looked upon as states likely to
lie found wandering from their habit
ual places, but the three states will
give their electoral vote to the Repub-
licans.
Wisconsin, because of the La Fol.
lette campaign for senator-he had
praised the Wilson administration and
ignored Mr.. Hughes-was counted on
almost confidently by the Democrats to
line up for the president. The Bad.
ger state will give its thirteen votes to
Mr.. Hughes.
The Republicans made a clean
sweep of New York state, with Gov
ernor Whitman running ahead Of
Hughes and William Calder, United
States senatorial candidate, far ahead
