Horses Do Get Sieh.
When a horses and mules are poor
it is not always and indication that they
do not get enough lo eat. Many ani
mals, just like human beings, have in
digestion or the syctam is all run down
and a tonic is needed. |t is not the a
mount ol loo ! eaten that makes muscle
and fat. More depends upon the prop
er digestion or assimilation ol thc lood
than is commonly supposed. Nothing
has yet been discovered that will build
upa horse or mule helter than Ash
cralt's Condition powders, the only
remedy in its class sold under a guar

crintent Col. D J. Griffith, ot' Columbia. He. has on each tann 300 acr^s in cit?
ton and it is a sale calculation and is postively stated that Without a mishap lo
the crop, he will gather 600 balee ot 500 pounds each. This visitor has traveled
considerably throughout the State and is a very large planter himself, his princi
pal topic ot convcrsaiion^being crops, which he admires thc beauty ol almost equal
to lair women-both being productions of Nature-and asserts that, without ex
ception, this tarni is a paragon of excellence beyond compare with any in the
State.

guano." Previous to this year it has been impossible to ptoducc any crop thal
tvould make a satisfactory yield on this land, it hardly paying tb plant cotton on
it; being light soil and full of nut grass They used in producing thc handsome
crop this year 400 pounds' Peruvian guano under the cotton and -J ?0 around crop,
This 40 acres ot cotton held its color well, dark green, all dining thc hot dry spell
