Killed His Brother.

Cal. Price shot and killed his older
brother, James, in the upper portion
of Richland county on Saturday night.
The two brothers farm not far from
one another III the neighborhood indi
Gated, where their family has resided
for years. 1t is sparscly- settled,
wild looking section of the country.
The aged father of the two men died
only about n week ago, and it is sup
posed that the elder brother was some
what inccnscd Mt the younger, about
the partition of the estate. The two
brothers were in Columbia together on
Saturday, and on their way home in
the afternoon had some words. About
10 o'clock that night Cal sitting in his
home, surrounded by his family, heard
IL stealthy tread outside in the yard.
He had heard, it seems, that jim had
declared his intention to get his gun
and kill him and his whole family. Cal
got his gun and went out the back
way. As he came round the corner of
the house he found Jim there with his
gun. He fired at once and Jim fell
dead across the shotgun with which he
intended to assassinatc his brother and
his family.

Good Bye. Butter work a.

God Bye, Butter Worker.
s good deal of otherwise excellent
ssbutter has been worked to deaf i. N,
and lstltt much of the dairy tea ching of the
present 7 day is directed against over
Work. Prot. Sheldon, in an English
Ss1e1chafnge. gives an interesting account
,s OF g new method of drying and pack
ing #Dutter without the use of a butter
4 worker at all This method is BY the
B emp loymentsof what is called q driver
anu anu molder. The cream is churned
IN ~ the ordinary way, the butter washed
n.1he granular state and left in the
sDrlne Tor half an hour. 1t is then la
# sole7s out, still in granules, and put in
to TN molds that are lined with mus
III. Inc .molds are arranged on a
S N' that 8revolves at a high rate OF
speed, which throws out the superflu-
4 GUS IN DISTURB in the form Of spray. and
the the #putter can be made as dry as one
cares to have it. 1t easily reduces the
water to AZ per cent in about one and
"a half minutes. The molding in the
TIN .molds is done at the same time.
ana inside of two minutes the pounds
+ OF Dutter are ready for the ia bic or tit
70 keep for any reasonable time. For
immediate consumption the butter thus
mace is said to be very attractive. Ii
is sui quite granular, only slightly
4compacted in the molds, and it breaks

ures without the aid of a knife. For
those who wish to eat butter in a CON
dltlon of perfection as to grain. there
is much promise in the new process

Pure Mutton Sheen.

Many reasons have been assigned as.
to why we should have more mutton
sheep. In the first place, mutton can.
be raised at as good profit as any
other kind Of meat. In the second
place, the consumption Of mutton IS
bound to increase. And in the third
place, mutton-rearing along with wool
will certainly pay better than wool
growing only. Mutton is one of the
most wholesome and delicious kinds OF
meat that can be used. Those who
have never eaten it don't know what
they have missed. One of the greatest:
hindrances to the more general con-
sumption of mutton is found in the
miserable quality of much that has
been put upon the market. 1t is not
worthy of the name of mutton. There
is as much difference between it and
good mutton as between a crab apple.
and a Spitzenberg. Never fear, farm
ers, as to the market for mutton We
will get the market if we only have
the quality in the product. Grow sheep
on your farm; you have room for.
some, and begin with those which Will
make a good quality Of mutton. Why
in all the United States, there is not
more than four-seyenths of sheep for
each inhabitant at the present time
