FERTILIZER WAR
SEEMS IMMINENT

nowhere else to entertain him.
New Plant at Savannah-Amerl-
can Chemical Co. Invades tha
Ceorgla-Carollna's Domain.
A war for supremacy of this
country’s fertilizer business seems
imminent. Many millions of dol
lars are to be utilized in an endeav
or to obtain control of this branch
of American industry,
The first move in this campaign
is the announcement that three new
fertilizer plants will be constructed
lby the American Chemical Com
pany during the next year in the
very heart of the territory covered
by the Virginia-Carolina Chemical
<Campany.
vOne will be at Savannah, Ga.,
■where the company has purchased
70 acres of land, and should be
•completed early in 1911, as the con-
(tracts have already been let. The
.-second will be at Wilmington, N.
-C., and the third at Columbia, S
C- Work ou the latter two will be
begun as soon as possible, and the
entire three should be in operation
*bv next summer.
.Altogether the expenditures for
■■now construction will total some
thing like $1,000,000, and as the
American Agricultural Chemical
lias a working capital of approxi
mately 618,500,000, as shown by
its recent annual statement, it is
not likely that the construction
•work contemplated will call for new
. .financing,
•Officials say the contemplated ex
penditures for extensions will not
affect the common stockholders’ po
sition, as the move into the South-
of ex-
effcct
for a long time. All common divi-
•aifiid discussions have taken into
- consideration the financial require-
anonts in connection with that pol
icy.
While Amevican has always been
■n factor in the Southern field, the
move of building three new plants
•simultaneously cannot be construed
otherwise than an/aggressive inva-
•sion of the preserves of the Virginia-
'Carolina Chemical Company. An
^interest closely connected with the
V.rginia-Carolina Company stated
that the Southern field is largo
enough for both, but generally in
fertilizer circles the outlook for a
trade war is considered excellent.
The Virginia-Carolina is consid
erably the larger of the two corpor-
iitions, but the American has shown
•a much more consistent record of
growth over the last decade.
Cure for Hog Cholera.
Mayor Scott, of Moultrie, gives
the following formula for a prepar
ation which he guarantees to cure
or prevent hog cholera. He has
known it used for years without
failure in a single case. He has
known men who had tried it and
were convinced of its curative pow
ers. The formula is as follows:
“Take equal parts by weight of
pulverized ginger, sulphur, pulver
ized saltpeter and black sulpliurctte
of antimony. Mix thoroughly and
feed in a mash. One tablespoonful
per day to each hog when sick. As
a preventive give from one to three
doses per week. If the hog is able
ro cat it will save him.”

A Quaker Girl's Yes.
A younger Quaker had been for
some time casting diffident glances
at a maiden of the same persuasion,
while she, true to the tenets of her
upbringing, had given him mighty
little encouragement, says the De
troit Times. However, one day
the opportunity of placing the mat
ter Upon a more stable footing pre
sented itself to Seth, and he shyly
inquired: “Martha, dost thou love
me?”
“Why, Seth, we are commanded
to love one another,” quoth the
maiden.
‘Ah, Martha, but dost thou feel
what the world culls love?”
“IJhardly know what to tell thee,
Seth. I have tried to bestow my
love upon all, but I have sometimes
thought thou wast getting more
than thy share.”

churches in the Southern Illinois
Conference herfeafter may provide
•spooning parlors for their, young
persons, under the auspices of Bish
op McDowell. In his annual con
ference sermon at Olney the bishop
approved the maintenante of a par
lor in the church where young wo
men .might^receive, under proper
ehaperonage, the young men who
came a-wooing.
The bishop.was making a modern
application of the advice of the dis
ciples before the miracle of the
loaves and fishes to send the hungry
multitude away from the mounti.ii.-
sides into the villages to buy them
selves something to (ygt.
“And that,” he said, ‘‘has been
the attitude of the church toward
its young people. It says ‘send
them away for the pleasures which
their hearts crave. Send them away
for their companionships and
amusements.’ They can get it by
going away. They cun get one
kind of it nowadays for a nickel.”

The successful transportation' of
part of an eye from one living per
son to another is the latest marvel
of science of surgery. In New’ York
the corner of a woman’s eye which
she was forced to lose by an acci
dent was grafted on to the eyeball
of a Chinaman. Duter it was found
necessary to reshape the pupil. At
the Medico-Chirurgical hospitial in
Philadelphia; the corner of a young
man’s eye made blind by a Hying
piece of steel was transferred to the
eye of a woman who had been blind
from infancy. After tw’enty days
it was found that the woman could
see for the first time in her life.—

DESIGNED BY
Truest
Worth
Real true worth or
value* doesn’t always
come, wrapped "large"
to be) sold at indiscrim-
inate I prices.
Folk usually know
that higher priced goods
are really worth twice
the price of an inferior
article. This fad
can easily be verified;
and more especially in
the expenditure of good
money for advertising
space in newspapers.
The Progress has
set a fair price on it’s
advertising space and
does not cut under this
price, neither does it
“overcharge” anyone.
The services of the best printers are
employed, and for those who de
sire the services of an advertising
expert, we have one.
ADVERTISED AT LAST
/ F*HERE was a merchant in oui
* town
Who was so wondrous wise
He saw his business running down,
Yet would not advertise.
<^AID he; “I cannot see the sense
w When trade is at its worst
Of multiplying my expense.
I’ll wait till trade comes first.”
d T last this merchant, ill advised,
* * Had naught to ( do but fail,
And then the sheriff advertised
A bankrupt auction sale.
