Aldrich Plan Gains Popularity In County
Special to News and Courier Lancaster April 6. The Aldrich system grows in local use as farmers report better resale and intend broader trials. Ira B. Jones plans a twelve plough farm using four foot rows and double cotton and corn crops. G C L McManus, a Lancaster delegate to the New Orleans Convention, will trial the system on his plantation except creek bottoms. George W. Jones, secretary of the County Cotton Growers Association, will apply the plan on all his farms. Early testers say the double crop method cuts costs, boosts yields, and improves soil. Foley's Kidney Cure advertised as kidney and bladder remedy. Sold by Funderburk Pharmacy.
