lew Methods For New Conditions.

New Methods For New Conditions.
Many and many farmer in South
Carolina is practicing the same meth
DDS that his father and grandfather
before him used. But why use old
time methods when old time fertility
is gone. There was time when about
all a farmer had to do in this State
was to tickle the earth with a hoe
and it would burst into a smile OF
golden grain and fruit or fleecy sta
pie, but that was when every field
was virgin soil. Now our soils are
exhausted. they have been robbed OF
their plant food, so when we go
forth to SOW we must do more than
merely tickle the earth; We. must
plow deep; we must rotate crops; we
must plant winter cover crops; we
must apply modern methods suitable
to modern conditions and not depend
too much on fertilizers to make up
for deficient plant food.
If good methods are practiced con-
sistantly, We can soon bring our de-
pleted soils back to their old time
productiveness; and having by that
time learned the lesson taught by
"robber crops" and "robber systems"
we can, by a continuance OF these
good farm practices, keep the land
productive.
Don't be behind the times in your
system OF farming. Look around you
and see what the men in your neigh
boring communities and counties are
doing. If they are prosperous and
you are not, study their methods and
put them into practice on your farm,
for you may rest assured that IN
most cases it will be the methods
they use that make their land better
and their farms pay more.

greatly increased amounts. and then
it will be that the scramble will be-
gin
But whether these things happen
OF not. isn't it time for the cotton
farmer to assert his rights. It's not
common justice for him to work year
in and year out with out reaping
some compensation for his labor, and
we venture the assertion that until
last year and the year before not
even the best farmers earned a de-
cent wage, growing cotton, and the
few who managed to live and edu-
cate their children met expenses
through some other channels.
We need not be interested in the
profits of the manufacturer who
weaveS in.o fabrics the raw material,
but we should say to Massachusetts
and other like centerS that they shall
not have the privilege of spinning
,, until they have paid price to the
producer for the raw material which
will enable him at least to enjoy the
ordinary comforts of life and to ed
ucate his children.
The time has come when the South
must stano together. individuality
must be merged with individuality, re
source must be piled upon resource,
effort must join with effort, interest
on the one hand must be united with
interest on the other hand, the farm
er, banker, merchant, professional
man, laborer and all must unite if
we win in this great fight which will
free the South from its economic
slavery that has existed for the past
half century, and which is the cause
of our i'll provided homes, our poor
tenant houses, our unseemly church
es, our poor roads and our low per-
centage in hteracy, for all of which
we are rebuked and criticized by
those who in the past have reaped
the profits at least part of which
should have been retained as our
own.
We believe that the people are
ready to act il they are properly in
vited to do so. and when we say 36
cents let US mean36 cents and nothing
less. Let's lift from our shoulders
the weight of debt and dispondency,
of poverty and ignorance, which
buckled to our bending backs have
kept us biting the dust for the past
fifty years.
We owe the effort to our children
of the future, to our parents who
have borne the burden in the past
and to the Divine mandate that the
laborer is worthy of his hire.
Business may be disturbed for a
while, but it will be only temporary.
Higher prices will give profits AND
bra, prosperity which has been
long past due.
Do not be disturbed by information.
sent out by the Bear interest. Pay no
attention to their propaganda, nor to
all Street influences and the Cotton
Exchange. Just hold on to your cot
ton, let everybody arrange their
obligation with cotton warehouse re-
ceiptS, or bills of sale OF some other
form of security. If every farmer in
the South will act jointly in this
matter, We believe that the movement
will bring sweeping success.
Postpone investments f every
kind buy only the necessary essen
cials, economize as if it were a war
measure. Hold the line taught. Win
the fight.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.

Spend Your Money Wisely

There are toda- molr ~chemcs be-

some of them are plainly fakes
The future welfare of this State

money now in our possession.
A wise man or wisely directed CO
operation during periods of prosperi-
ty will make investments n perma-
nent improvements which later help
tide over periods OF depression.
The same principe holds good in
farming. This i; the logical time to

Gus chan thev have been in recent
years.
In addition t.. such Improvements
as home water works and farm
lighting systems, one of the greatest
needs is for more wire fencing.
There is a growing interest in live
stock production. Statistics show this
to be true. The business of pork pro-
duction is sure to grow. The advent
of the boil weevil will increase the
production of all kinds of livestock.
More fencing is necessary if we ex-
pect to fight the boil weevil success
fully and engage seriously in live
stock production.
Very attractive prices have been
secured from manufacturers. These
prices will be ready for publication
within the next few days.
