Improved Stock.

The present high price of thorough.
bred stock, while il limits the business
of breeding to men of capital, does not
necessarily prevent the ordinary farmer
from procuring male animals wherewith
to improve his native stock. A stock
Of grade cows for the dairy may be
gradually gathered up by the expeudi+
ture of from fifty to two hundred dol
lars. Many breeders of Jersey cattle
will dispose of u young bull calf for
very small sum, because its color does
not suit their taste, while in respect TO
its pedigree. or other useful qualities,
it may be iaultless. Such an animal
purchased young and we'll cared for will
become useful for raising calves, at
year old. A yearling heifcr Of his get
will, by the use of another such animal
become profitable at two years old, and
its calf will be three quarters bred, and
it is quite likely TO become as valuable
for the dairy as pure bred animal that
could not be purchased for less than
$500 or $500.
The produce of this cow would be
seven.eighths bred, and if care is taken
in selecting the parents, would show
little difference from entirely pure ami
mals. Cooperation among few neigh
bors who would each procure aud keep
a young bull, whose services they might
exchange with each other to prevent
close breeding, would soon change the
appearance as well as the productive
qualities of the stock of quite large
district The main point to be guarded
against IS not to breed from any but
pure stock. All male grade animals
should be emasculated or go to the
butcher, while young. The use of the
grade bull ought not to be permitted
Here is where many a mistake is made
In the course of four or five years quite
a herd of three.quarter or seven.eighth
bred animals would accumulate, and the
profit would begiu to come in. Ayrshire
aud Jersey cattle should be the breeds
aimed at, as these are excellently fitted
for the dairy, and are profitable fed for
the butcher on ordinary farms. They
are exceedingly tractable, quiet aud
orderly, aud large mixers, and yield
much butter of good color and favor.
The Devon and Durham are better
fitted for the grazier, aud would be
more suitable where beef is the object
aimed at. But whatever the breed
chosen, care should be taken to avoid
neglect, or loss will inevitably ensue.
We have known cases where money has
been invested in thorough. bred stock
which has been treated as though its
blood alone would be sufficient to pro
tect it from neglect, exposure aud star
walton. The natural consequence OF
such mistake was made ground of
complaint against the breed, and led
to dissatisfaction aud disgust. The old
adage, "blood will tell" true as it may
be, is 20 talisman against such an error
The refined nature of an animal care
fully bred through many generations,
will often enable it to sustain much i'll
treatment, but it will not thrive under
it. When possessed Of specimen OF
such stock, give it fair treatment
pampering is unnecessary, as it is uu.

attention will make the investment a
greatly profitable one.

M. Editor: Your Columbia CORE
spondentr in your issue Of February
25th, spcaking in reference to the Com
mittce sent to Washington by the House
of Representatives, to procure aid from
the United States Government in SUI
pressing Ka Klax outrages in South
Carolina, after abiding to their failure
to procure ia interview with the Presi-
dealt says:
Surely the authorities in Washington
were aware of the coming of such 4
%deputation, they surely knew the very
important mission on which the Com.
mittee had been sent, and yet the doors
of the Executive Office would not open
for them, the Chief Magistrate would
not hear them. This action on the part
of Grant, admits OF two definitions, either
of which may be tho true explanation.
First, the authorities at Washington do
not recognize a Committee sent on the
part of the House of Representatives
alone, as a true representation Of the
people Of South Carolina. and therefore
refuse to listen to thoir plcadings, or,
the appointment of such a Committee
has offended our Representatives in Cou-
gross, aud they have used their inAu-
ence to PROSTATE the plans Of our envoy.
This latter proposition seems to us, al
most, the more reasonable Of the two"
Permit me to say that as far as this
paragraph reflects upon the South Caro-
liua delegation in either house of Con.
grsss, it is a gross libel. Ii this Com-
m,ittee ever applied to any member of
the delegation for aid in this matter, l
am very much mistaken. There are at
least two or three members of the dele
cation, including 10th Senators whc
would and could havo obtained an inter
view with tho President or any other
officer of the Government, on this sub.
Ject, had they been aPprlscd OF the
presence of the Committee ID Washing

failed to do tneir duty ia the case, but

the,,Committcd, or Of the House which APP,
pointed it.
Every member Of the delegation from
South Carolina in each house of ths
late Congress, held himself ready to Civ,
any aid in his power in tho matter.
If the failure to obtain an interview
with the President arose from the lac
that the Committee did not represcn
both branches of the Legislature, tina
could have boon easily rernedied by ,
