The price of fertilizers is so
much higher this year many
farmers are considering the ad-
visibility of a reduction ia the
amount to be used on this years
crop. Potash is out of sight. In
fact none can be bought except
i'll mixed goods. Nitrogen is
higher also, cotton seed meal
and nitrate of soda having felt
the effects of the war. Acid is
higher too because of the great
war demand for sulphuric acid
which is used in making acid
phosphate. A great many farm.
ers have exchanged seed for
meal. and thus have the nitrogen
and a small amount of potasl
ready for this season. Wher,
this is the case nothing NOR,
will have to be bought excep
acid and the advance in price
will not be felt so keenly.
We believe also that more
manure is being raised thi:
winter than ever before, which
will aid very greatly in produc
ing abundant crops.

Why Women Should Vote.

Why Women Should Vote.
Written for The Journal.
A bill to allow women to vote
in South Carolina was seriously
discussed on the floor of the
House a few days ago. Two
years ago men would have said
this was impossible. Three years
ago a bill to this effect was ta-
bled in committee with laughter.
On Thursday some of the strong.
est and most progressive repre-
sentatives spoke for such a bill
and voted for it. 81 men in favor,
81 men opposed. Only ten votes
difference against it. Is it not
time for men and women over
the state to think.
The growth of sentiment in
favor of suffrage is noticeably
greater in the legislature than il
was last year when the bill was
introduced. 1T is coming" even
It's enemies say, though they
think it will be ten years before
1t does come. But it will be less
than ten years that the good men
of this state will say by their
vote that their mothers, sisters
and sweethearts should not be
classed politically with criml-
mails, children, and idiots.
Just let them put on their
thinking cap and they will see
the injustice of refusing to tax
paying women the right to say
how her taxes shall be spent.
They will see the inconsistency
of holding a mother responsible
for the education and training Of
the children when she canno,
choose by her vote the men who
select the teachers. or the Off
GERS who should put out of bust
ness the drinking-places and
gambling dens. They will see
the wrong to their women and
children in sending them out in
such large numbers to work in
the mills, stores, and offices and
then giving them no vote to pro
tect themselves in these fields of
industry.
Women have intelligence,
their husbands depend on their
judgement entirely in running
the home, and often ask their
opinion in their business. They
are the first 10 consider the NOR
al side of a question. They wo. k

work for good government
They have the time. "Who will

asked a husband. The sam,
woman who tends it when sh,
takes time TO pay her taxes
answered the wife.
A little fair thinking will show
every man that the same reason,
for his voting holds good in th,
case of his wife. Fifty-one mer
have acknowledged this by thei,
votes. There will soon be s.
thousand.

SULPHUR AS A FERTILIZER
Experiments Conducted Seem to Prove That It Is of the Greatest Value
 to the Soh.

In parts of France the residue from gas works is extensively used as a fer tilizer Analysis of several samples of garden soil prove that the value of this unusual fertilizing agent is due in part to the large, amount of sulphur in it, 40 per cent of sulphur and from l to ? per cent of nitrogen. in the form of ammonia CT it's salts. Experiments in flour of sulphur are said to promote the growth of both roots and leaves and to give to the plants deeper green color than they would have without it. Probably it helps to form chlorophyll. Moreover. some of the sulphur is oxi- dized and becomes sulphate in the soil
 In this relation. it may be pointed out that experiments at the University of Wisconsin have been regarded as proving that the generally prevailing theory that sulphur in the soil is of little value for promoting fertility, as compared with phosphorus and nitro gen, is erroneous and that sulphur is. in fact, of vast importance. Continu- ous cultivation, together with insufii- cient fertilization. causes a large an- nual loss of sulphur which cannot be compensated from the atmosphere. and little is brought up by capillarity from the subsoil. The experimenters therefore, recommend the application of fertilizers containing sulphur to lands which are frequently cropped. The failure hitherto to recognize the great value of sulphur in the soil Is ascribed to faulty analytic methods employed by early investigators.
