"IMS , C0TT0H OEOE" Mix your fertilizers at home and save two dollars per ton. This sounds big -two whole dollars. But hold on! How much fertilizer do you put on an acre? Four hundred pounds? If so, you might save Forty Cents Per Acre. Also, you might and would make this mixture irreg ular, and some plants would certainly be slighted, and you would have poor spots in the field not half as good as the best spots, and your poor little forty cents is gone. This year, seed cotton "is worth 6 cents per pound. The loss of seven pounds would swamp your saving. If you are figuring on making 1,400 pounds of seed cotton per acre, "... One-Half of One Per Cent would get away with your alleged forty cent saving. Now, if you can pay forty cents more and have a responsible manufacturer guarantee absolute uniformity of mixture and absolute certainty of ingredients, why isn't this good insurance against uncertain crops? One-Half of One Per Cent isn't much premium to pay For Insuring Your Crop. There is only one way to insure absolute uniform ity of fertilizer. Buy a guaranteed brand- of machine miqed fertilizer.

My Dear Mr. Boylin: I was mighty glad to get your kind letter asking me why I bad quit writing for, the M. & L "Honest Ingin," Mr. Boylin, truth compels me to tell you that even mother Baid she thought 1 was tiring you, and,-when I got your letter asking why I did not write and saying that many grown people as well as children were want ing to hear from me, mother just said: "Well, little daughter, I am very proud if the people want to hear from ray little girl, and you may write for Mr. Boylin all he wants you to write." You see, brother kept talking about ray saying too much. Brother will "butt in" and find fault. I do love him, Mr. Boy lin, but he gets me nervous some times by finding fault with what I do; but he does net suggest anything better. I have heard it said that some peo ple are finding fault with the M. & I. and the Ansonian forgetting the chil dren interested in the contest. They ay it interferes with the children's school work. Without bragging, Mr. Boylin, I think we are ahead of any ichool in the county and I am ahead f any pupil in our school. I went o our teacher and asked him if I was aek ward in my lessons on account jf the work I was doiug for the M A .," ami he said: "No; this work renlly getting up such energy iinong the pupils that all are work ing tidruer ami making better re- ords." - And what our teacher says u ans something. He is just as good any teacher that ever came to An on to teach. Our school board hasn't he rich people to help it that Anson ville or Wadtsboro or some other 'hoo! places in the county have, but ur board and our people are deter mined to do their part by the ehil- Iren. ;1 If those who find fault like my brclhtr would only suggest ways and 'neuns for improving conditions tht-y ught to be leaders aud you ought to follow their lead; but until they do lon't you pay any attention to them. If you do we children of Anson will te compelled to go to the same old di lapidated school buildings, surrcund d by dirt, filth aud unwholesome onditions. Brother and others may tie satisfied to go on in the old way. ut you are not, Mr. Boylin. You vant the children-to have Tis g school surroundings as the children of any State. And I am told the Yankee children have fine school houses with all kinds of things tc amuse them, and we know that we are making the cotton at fifteen cenb a pound, or less, and they work it up j into cloth, lace, clothing and other j things and sell it to us for two dollars a pound. Why is this? I believe it Is because we are taught everything from books and nothing from real practical ways, and when you try to teach us things like butter making that will help us save and make money and brother and others butt in and condemn you for it. I feel like saying "shut up and get out or do something" I kinder feel bold to talk and write since receiving your letter for you braced. mother up, she has been on your side all the time but brother's whining around so much had caused her to feel that there might be something in what he said about the people being tired of my letters and of your progressive way of doia;j things. Mr. Boylin, don't you think things are livening up in a great way in the contest. We all feel so glad that we are ahead we don't know what to do, but are afraid some school is hoki iug back until the last week. But that's all right. We are not going to hold back and when they wait un til the last to work we may be so far ahead no one can catch up with us. I am glad you and Mr. Bivens and Mrs. Little are planning to have a "Greater Day" when the prizes are given out, and that many people from a distance will come to see what we have done. 1 am uot only working for subscribers but am working on a butter mold, and I expect to get one of the prizes Mr. Patrick is offering for the best butter mold made by the school children. . Mr. Boylin, when you see that dear iady, Mrs. Eugene Little, tell her we girls and boys do love her so much for the work she is doing to help us have nice pretty schools; and we know she succeeds in. everything she undertakes and that she will eueed in this because she will have the help of all the best boys and girls and jjrown people of the county. There may be a few like my broth er, but he is a real good fellow when it comes down to the truth. He does not mean all he says. He just natu rally wants to take the opposite side to what I do. You know you find real good people who do that, and we have to overlook their ways and con tinue to love them. I'll write you again right soon. Yours very truly, . WHEN THE MINE CAVED LN.

Dread ia the alarm of fire in a coal mine. - The sound smote the eats of the women of Cherry as an omen of death, for three hundred men, their husbands, brothers and sons were deep in the mine below the town. Three hundred after all who could reach the shaft before the flame and gases cut them off had escaped! Aiweek later, to the very hour and ruinate twenty-one of the men were rescued; but who can tell what the women of Cherry lived through in the draging hours of anguish of those black seven days, or the sorrow that settled into despair in the homes of the other women? What can a woman do when the mine caves in and buries her hus band underground? She can weep and saffcr and pray, and hope, and that is all. All? ,Yes, but It saved the rescued miners of Cherry. Men fought the . fire in the first three terrible days. Firemen came from Chicago, and lowered their lengths of hose, and followed it presently and dragged it with them. The fan supplied them fresh air. For three days there was hope that water would subdue the flames; but the mine led off in cou fit less passages, and the; fire subdued in one woke from its embers ia another, and the battle waged uncertainly, with the advantage in favor of the fire. Then On the third day the sharp order was given to stop the fan and withdraw the firemen. This was done. ' As soon as the fan stopped, the smoke increased from the mouth of the mine. The fan that kept the firemen alive had supplied oxygen for the flame; and now, when the blower stopped, the flame followed the firemen, chasing,- chasing them to the shaft, and bellowing after thera; and the shaft in a little while became a roaring furnace. Then a galloping team brought a load of planks, which were laid over the mouth of the mine, and after this came other wagons with loads of railway-rails, and these were laid above the pi inks; and then came carts of sand, and these were backed up to the mine and shoveled over the rails, til1 the last flissure was cov ered and the last faint wisp of smoke disappeared, i . It - was the only way to stop the fire, the managers explained. Thty h id been fighting the fire and feed ing it at the same time, and while pouring water on it in one or two places, had been blowing it into blaze in many places. They must smother it out. And all knew that they did wisely. But what of the hearts of the wo men who saw those planks laid above their buried husbands? To smother the fire was to drive the black damp into the remotest corner of the mine. There bad been hope while the fan ran, but uothing now could live be low. " They cried out in agony that their men were being smothered to death in the mine. Wise men addressed th.m, and told them to go home and be brave. As for their husbands, unfortunately there was no hope for thera. The mine had not been sealed till it was practically certain that eveiy living man was out. Three days the fire had been raging, and no one could remain alive below. Let the women go home now, and relief would be sent to them. Everything had been done that could be done for their bus bands. But when would the mine be open ed? When would their husbands be rescued? The women pleaded pile- ously. They knew something told them that there were living men below. The experts were divided in their judgment, but most of them held that the mine would never be opened. The mine was ruined. But the women would not go to their homes. They hung about the sand-cover .d pit, as the women ling ered at the tomb of their Lord in the garden near Jerusalem. They pray ed, they wept, they insisted, they would not be reasonable. Some of theiu were hystericai; some were furious; more were dumb, with bauutlug eyes that pierced the soul of every man that looked into them,and then returned and fixed their gaze despairingly on. the mouth of the miue. At lat they made small holes in the sand, and dropped lines of boee down the shaft and let the water Sow. Then, lowering a thermometer and finding the heat reduced, they uncov ered the pit, and brave men went down. They brought up dead bodies, alas! very many of them. But as they worked they heard noises that meant life, and they worked till they rescued a score and more of their fel low men, who had walled them, selves in, and waited, against all probability, for the coming of their friends. 'ow who saved the miners of Cherry? Brave men, who took their lives in their hands, and whose forti tude bad its reward in the salvation of their brothers. Bat not theee only. The women of Cherry saved their husbands and brothers and sons b; their tears and prayers aad unreason able insistince and blind faith that would not be denied. Fven so in the long ago, when the wisdom of men had done its utmost, and the disciples huddled, cowed and helpless In the Upper Room, the love and tears of women watched without at the sepulcher till life triumphed over death, and love had ita answer from the tomb. - ATTEltPT TO DLL AND ROB AGED UNCLE. llsw'a Tkltl We offer Ouo Hundred Dollars Reward (or any ca.ua of Catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall's Cvtarrh Cure.
