While Mr. George Scholar, the popular railroad man, was living in South Carolina rome years ago, a man was taken sick and passed away and Mr. Scholar, being possessed of a big teart, did all tie couia for the man and when he died, Mr, Scholar placed a quarter on each of his eyes until the wife o the man came around and took the two quarters purchasing a pint of liquor with one ol the quarters and purcnasmg a French harp with the other, and George says when he went back to see what decisian was reached as to the burial the wife of the dead man was as drunk as a bat and aitting in the middle of the room playing ''Ain t that a i shame," and seemed to be the hanpiest of the happy, Saw and Talked with a Ghost in Day light. a F. Drakin Apex (wHkeV) Journal. A fe lays f go, while Tlwing m his tieid' near Bnskhorn Falls, Mr. Ocar Stephens witnessed an unusual sight in what proved to be the immortal shade of a man who had been dead seven years. Mr, Stephens was turc in? bis team at the end of a iow when he saw the ghost, which was standing in the edge of a i atah of woods near the field He did not at first recognize the supposed-to be man and left his team and went out to where the ghost was standing. He then recognized him and talked with him. The ghost disappeared suddenly and Mr. Stephens returned to bis work. Mr. Step hens says he was very badly frightened, but refused to dis close any of the conversation which took place between t'uem. There was a negro plowman in the field at work at the time the incident occurred. He said he saw the men standing in the edge of the woods and heard them talking, but couldn't understand what was being said; that he recogniz?d the straneer as the spirit of the man who bad been dead for years. The negro was so badly frightened that he loos ed bis team from the plow, mounted his horse and went to the house We believe it was Father Evans, of the Milton Chronicle (the Charlotte Observer knows), who used to ask, on hearing storv like the above, "How much did he have on?" It would be proper to to ask if the moonshine product of Wake or the stuff sold at the Raleigh dispensary makes one see ghosts in broad day-light? The Landmark. Boy Frightened to Death.

A crop j that occupies the soil from the fall season nim, I until spring, or early summer, will bear Heavier ieruuzmg man win a crop iuai If planted In the spring and ripens for harvest in midsummer. The first case is illustrated by oats, wheat, or other small j grain, or grass, especially wnen sown in the fall of the year. Such a crop occu pies the soil during the late fall and win ter, and earlv spring during which pe riods the rains are usually abundant ripening for harvest in late spring, or very early summer, before the burning summer heat and possible drouths of June and July. Oats and wheat therefore are iri'nl crons for liberal fertilizing. Corn is rather an uncertain crop on the ordinary dry uplands of the South. It has but a short period in which to devel- 00 its flowers tassels and silks cover ing but a few days. ir very ary weamer shall prevail when this critical period is approaching, and for some time after it is passed, the crops may prove a greater or less failure. There can be no second effort, no second period of blooming. Jt is different in the case of cotton, whfh commences to bloom and make fruit in June (or even earlier) and con tinues throughout th summer until checked by a severe frost in November. It has a number of "chances." Cotton is therefore another Ideal crop for liberal fertilizing. A small amount : of fertilizers applied per acre will no 1 doubt yield a larger percentage profit I on its cost than will a larger amount. j To illustrate: An application of $2 worth ' of fertilizer per acre may cause an in 1 creased yield of cotton (at 10 cents per ' Dound) of the value of $6 to $8. or a profit of 2iX to 300 per cent, on its cost. I have frequently had such results. But it does not follow that twice as heavy an appli cation will Droduc'r twice as large re sults, or that three times as much would cause three times as great an increase In the yield. In other words, the rate of increase in the yield of cotton will not be in proportion to the Increase in the amount of fertilizers applied. Two dollars' worth of fertilizer per acre may vield an increase in the crop of J6; but $6 worth would not therefore bring an increase of J18. But careful observation has shown tnat an application of $5 to $6 worth of fertil izers (properly balanced) is a safe amount to apply per acre on cotton. Many farm ers in Georgia have secured satisfactory returns from an application of bo much as SfX) pounds per acre, : I think 600 pounds a perfectly safe limit on upland in fairly good condition, weH Daughter "She seems t hive got over the death of her first husband," Father -"Yes, ! but her second husband hasn't." 1 Pick-Me-Up, Bearg the ThB Kind Yo'J HavB Alw3ys "Polician re'used a pass," "1 don't take no stock in that headline," declared Farmer Oates, "You don't understand," explain" Parmer Hayes.
