Farmers urged to sow oats before frost ends the fall
The Ledger reprints a Chester Lantern article arguing farmers should seed oats in fall rather than wait. It notes many excuses are shortsighted and that December and January sowings often waste seed. Also covered is the Gaffney Ledger raising its yearly subscription to 1.50, with praise for value per issue and call for others to follow. It discusses cotton ginning trusts, price cuts to 60 cents a bale, and a dispute around seed costs. The Charleston Post criticizes Bryan supporters in Charleston and predicts apathy across counties toward campaign fundraising.
