■ TIMES-RECORDER. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY, 24, 1910. THE OFFICE IS AMONG BEST IN THE COUNTY. Officials of Suniler Good Pay. Get The campaign for counity offices now hc-lng waged has caused specula tion as to the amount of salary at tached to each department, and surprise la expressed at the Increase ■within recent years, due to the en hancement of land values and addi tional business at the court house generally. Nearly every office, except those of sheriff and clerk of court, pays more now than in recent years, all of them being an a fee basis. Increased land values bring an in crease of pay to tax receiver and consequently, to the tax collector, each official being paid a percentage upon the amount of taxes assessed and upon the amount collected. And increased property values helps the treasurer likewis. This office formerly paid something like $S00 to $1,000, but Increased bus iness has recently put the annual com pensation above the !$2,000 mark, thus mak'ng It about the most de sirable office upon the list, as very Ulttle clerical work Is required of the treasurer during the year. Should the $100,000 bond issue go through this year, ag now hoped, the treasurer’s commission of 2 1-2 per cent, for handling that fund will add vastly to his stipend.

A Guidepost to Increased Profits If you have never used Peruvian Guano you have never realized the greatest possible yields from your soil. Peruvian Guano is the excre ment of birds that inhabit the rocky coasts of Peru and adja cent islands. These birds live on fish, hence thisfertilizer is especially rich in certain elements. These elements are in differ ent forms some slowly and some quickly active, which thus furnish nourishment tothe plant from start to maturity. Peruvian Guano is digested fish and should not be con fused with inferior products like bat guano, etc. Many of our farmers have used Peruvian Guano and know what enormous crops it will produce. We have a beautifully illus trated book which tells of this wonderful product of nature. A copy PERUVIAN GUANO CORPORATION CHARLESTON. S.C. MR. EVERETT WAS SHOE IN EYE BY GUNNER.

The shot punctures in the face wqro of little consequence account of the unusual severity of the winter, which is delaying work In many lines. Usually by the lat ter part of February the cold weather Is at an end and winter Is virtually over. As to whether it will prove to be the case this year re mains to be seen.
