A weiI-Known Charles city Man
Drowned.


tCorrespondence OF the Richmond Dispatchl
TOANo. JAMES CITY; May 10, 1883.
The sad report comes that Mr.. W. f.
Walker, OF Charles City county, was
drowned 10 Chickahominy river yesterday
evening. He was having vessel loaded
with railroad ties, and took the captains boat
and went on a pleasure sail. Mr.. J. f. Jones,
OF james City, saw the boat aground. went
to il, and to his horror, found Mr.. Walker
gone. The alarm was given and n searching
party Immediately organized, but nothing
was found but Mr.. Walkers hat. The
theory is that a sudden flaw OF wind cap
sized the boat or knocked the occupant over
board.
Mr.. Walker was about thirty years old,
and was one Of the most prosperous mer-
chants Of his county, and OF irreproachable
character. lie leaves widowed mother aud

LURAY, VA, MAY 0, 1888.
One OF the most brilliant marriages which

place to-day at 10 A. Nj. IN Main-Street Bap-
tist church, in the presence Of large num-
Der OF friends and acquaintance OF the par
ties. The groom was the first 20 enter the
church, being preceded by the seven dca-
cons OF the church, who were IN turn
preceded By two ushers IN the following
order: Ushers, Joseph W. Brsyles aud i.
T. Boston; DcacOns, James Il. Hudson and
John H. Read John y. Chapman ard T. J.
Beney, james II. ehenk and John W. Ilud-
son, and colonel Mann Splitter and the
groom-all Of whom took positions on the
right OF the pulpit, where the coming OF the
bride and her attendants was awaited. These
then entered the church In the following or
der: Ushers. G. II. Grove and Tyler llern-
don, Misses Salle Strickler and Kinda Strick-
Ter, Lilly Broaddus and Alice Splitter, Berta
Snyder aud Katie Brbce, and the maid 81

advanced to meet the bride in front OF the
pulpit, where stood the officiating minister,
Rev. W. G. Biting, pastor OF the Mt. Morris

ont OF the church, the bride and groom
going first followed by the deacons, each
escorting one Of the bridesmaids, and the
ushers following them. Miss Tillie g. Hern.

Good Advice.

The Farmvlle journal gives some good
advice TO the Democrats Of Virginia, aud es'
pecially 10 those OF them who will be mem
bers Of the Norfolk Convention. 1t says:
"The time is rapidly approaching when
this body will meet in Norfolk, and what
wall II do IL the question which now agitates
the minds OF the people. GOOD men ana
true, so far as We know, have been elected
as delegates 10 this convention; men VINO
have tue interests Of the State as well az the
Democratic party ut heart, and who we be-
lieye will so act as 10 do nothing that VIII
jeopsrdIze the success OF the Democratic
party I'm this State. But we would
say, and say It with oil due DETER
enee, that the members OF this convention,
each and every one, should be actuated
and controlled first, lsst, and all the time,
with this IN view: Democratic success IN
girpaia, no matter what this man or that
man may think IN regard to the pubic ques'
tons which are now stirring mems mlnu',
and which are now the subjects OF nslonal
legislation. We must have a continuance OF
Democratic rule. That ~ the first Object 10
be obtained, snd caution, prudence, ana wis
dom should control the action OF this con-
yention when It speaks on these veXed
questions. and LET no step be taken, no
act do. which by any possibility could
make Virginia doubtful State. Shrewd
and wary foes are watching snd hoping that
some blunder will be made OF which they
can take advantage aud cause dssension In
our ranks. see to It, gentlemen, repre-
sentatives OF the Democracy OF Virginia,
that no mistake is made, no act done, no
word uttered, which can or may be mlscon-
strued TO our injury, or which may cause a
spit IN our ranks. Much depends on your
action, and tue people, whose represents
tives you are, are waiting and watching to
see what you will do. That you will act
wisely we doubt not, but word OF caution
may be in season and save trouble hereafter"

rHE DAIRY.

Six thousand pounds OF milk Is the
amount that good COW should pro-
duce.
Milking seems as yet 10 be one OF
the operations that can not be done
well by machinery. All artificial milk
ers have a tendency to decrease the
yield of milk and to dry up the cow
NJ E. Farmer.
Cream charged with milk, II
churned in the first stage Of acidity,
promoted by frequent STRINGS, ohurns
better and "cleaner" than thick cream,
as it is more fluid and performs better
in the churn.--Aniericdn Ddirynsda.
1t is better not TO retain bad
mixer in the dairy, for troublesome
cow will be avoided ny the mixers as
long as possible, and win not be prop
erly MIXED, and therefore will not do
her best or hold out her flow OF milk so
long as she should.
Thick cream can be churned better
II % per cent. Of water at 60 or 62 de-
grees is added at the commencement
than with dilution Of milk, because
this milk is charged with albuminous
matter that we churn TO dispose Of, and
only adds TO the viscosity of the cream.
The best and richest milk is found
10 be Produced just after the growth
ceases, ana while the vitality is
strongest. When COW has reached
that age when she begins TO lose vital
force, her secretions OF milk becomes
less perfect, just as her digestion and
assimilation do. When cows begin to
show the effects of age in this way. they
should be replaced by younger and
more vigorous animals. Dairymen
lose great deal of money by keeping
cows after they have passed their most
profitable age.-Ddiry World. a,.E ..'
If you have every thing else all
right and let the cream stand until it
is too sour you will reduce the value OF
the butter made from it two or three
cents a pound. WhyP Because the
butter will have sour shetland taste.
This kind OF butter is rot choice. Tho
difference may be more than named.
and it will be II the cream gets
watery. Any way, tho three cents a
pound will pay freight and commits

care and pains-taking. 1t is this over
sour and neglected cream which makes

COWS IN WINTER.
Hints for Dnlrymen which should Not 10
Neglected.

Hints for DaIrymen which should Not Ito
Neglected.
Winter is approaching, and 1t is tho
proper time to talk about tho winter
care OF farm stock, especially when any
preparation Is needed. In order for
dairy COWS to do their best they should
have early cut hay, or, as Mr.. Terry
says, dried grass in abundance, sup
plemented with plenty OF good, bright
fodder corn, also corn, oats and oil
meals, and plenty OF bran. As rule,
dairymen understand the quantities OF
each for ration OF two feeds per day.
In feeding for butter expressly, good
proportion OF corn-meal viii give tho
best results.
No herd OF cows can be comfortable
In cold barn or stable, lying on tho
bare floor, constantly accommodating fer
tilizing material every time they lie
down. II is almost impossible TO keep
cows clean on Level stable floor. The
floor should have three inches slant
toward the tight gutter in the rear
made expressly for holding all liquids
and solids, With plenty OF good bed
ding and proper care cows can be kept
clean. The card and brush should be
used daily. When once broken in COWS
enjoy it. A good clean herd OF cows,
with their hair all smooth, lying in the
right direction, their sides and udders
free from filth of all kinds, is beauti-
full sight to look upon. One can tako
pleasure in sitting down aud milking
such COWS.
But" says one, al have no time TO
spend in brushing and currying. just
try the experiment once and satisfy
yourself. Another says. 81 don't be-

also have the satisfaction OF having
clean milk. One can take pleasure in
sitting down and milking such cows.
and when he gets through no has n
/ pailful of milk that Is free from what
some call "animal odor.n The true Sc
cret of having good milk and butter is
first in good feeding, second in keeping
| the cows and stables as clean as posi-
BILE; third, in care and watchfulness
while milking. The udder should be
carefully brushed with the hand before
the pail is put between the knees. No
loud talking should be INDUCED while
milking. Thrre is plenty of time for
silent reflection, and | am not sure but
it would be perfectly proper to silently
mediate upon some OF our past mis-
takes or misdeeds, If we have been
any guilty OF such! Ioftensee the dairy
COW carrying about more fertilizing ma
terial in the winter time than is abso
lutely necessary for her comfort or con
yenience. sincerely believe that II
she could mako few remarks upon
this subject she would declare this fer
tilizing business burdensome and over.
