TIMES COMMENTS.

The Times, commenting editorially
upon the correspondence, says: The
publication of the dispatches showing
how the agreement for a new confer
ence was arrived at will be a relief
to the public mind. Nothing has been
dcne to compromise the dignity of the
nation or to give even an appar-
ent triumph to the tactics of an
unwarrantable dictation. Mr.. Sher-
mans extraordinary dispatch, unex-
ampled probably in the annals of di-
plomacy. has been cenclusively an
swered in state papers, admirable
alike in reasoning power and literary
form, prepared by the colonial office,
dealing fully with Mr., Sherman's con-
tentions and demolishing- them in the
most complete and satisfactory way.
1.-The document absolves Lord Sails
bury from the necessity, of entering
into details, irrevelapt to the contro-
versy, and at the same time it leaves
him free to assent to- an 5investi cation
of matters of fact which tits obviously
desirable to have ascertained before
the time arrives to consider whether
it is necessary or desirable to revise
the pelagic regulations. There is no
reason against such van investigation,
which, in fact, looking to 1.-THE sconf1iet-
ing statements on the subject, is alb
solutely Indispensable before any re-
vision Of the regulations is possible.

Olive Schreiner's New Book

South Africa has given us Cecil Rhodes,
but it has also given us Olive Schreiner.
The great tempter, invoking all the low
est and coarsest motives of human ac-
ton, has succeeded to a lamentable ex-
tent in depraving public opinion in our
country. The ministers of religion, whose
duty it was to keep alive, in all hearts
that they could reach, sentiments of JUS
tice, humanity and honor, have once
more failed to do their part. But noble
and gifted woman has singly taken the
task out of their hands. Not enduring to
think that Christianity has lost all public
usefulness, she calls up Jesus Himself
from the dead to bear witness to eternal
verities banished from the modern pull
pit. Peter Halket" is a daring book for
the end of the nineteenth century. But
Olive Schreiner is not only a woman of
genius; she is prophet and preacher,
and what the critics are pleased to cali
good taste" is nothing to her. She has
dared to pour forth words of flame which
will burn into the hearts and consciences
of many who are apatheti.s or have even
listened to the tempter.-London Echo.

What Girls Ought Not to Eat

Headaches, side aches, back aches, are
the ailments of the modern girl, and
there must be a reason for it. Possibly
food has its influence. What do your
daughters eat while going to school? Do
they have light, healthy breakfast, a
tempting, appetizing lunch and whole
some, but not rich dinner? If so, look
elsewhere for the trouble. But in in
stances this is not the case, because the
girl won't eat respectable food. For
breakfast she wants fried oysters, cheese
omelet, hot biscuit, preserves, cake, and
strong coffee, and she usually gets it. At
noon she wants nothing but pickle, half
a dozen chocolates, two or three maca-
rooms and glass OF soda water! And
she has these too. For dinner she eats
the desert and drinks a cup of coffee,
black as your hat,and says she isn't hun
cry anyhow. Before she goes to bed she
is hungry, however. and lunches on a
huge slice of fruit cake, few olives and
a hunk of pie. By morning the doctor
is called and prescribes an emetic, a
physic, something for the kidneys, some
thing for the nerves, and remarks that
the patient has a delicate organization,
land must have great care lest she eat
too much eolid food!" If the girl was
tied down TO toast and soft boiled eggs,
a dish of fresh fruit and weak tea or
coffee in small allowance, her aches and
delicate organization would take care of
itself and she would get to be as strong
as God meant her to be.-Washington

CARNATIONS have worked hand In hand
for state aid. This is the strongest en-
dorsement which could be given to the
efforts of the League of American
Wheelmen, and shows that they are
aimed in the right direction.
All classes alike are beginning TO re-
alize the great economic Importance OF
permanent highways. Farmers feel
that they have too long been compelled
to build and improve country roads at
their own expense, and they are en-
titled to state support in this great
necessary public improvement. Upon
these lines, and upon these lines alone,
the good roads improvement is bound to
succeed, and will succeed, and upon
these lines the League of American
Wheelmen proposes TO keep up its agi-
tation, with the help of the farmers of
the United States, until our common
roads, neglected until now, the stepchil-
dren, as it were, of a great republic,
shall have received at the hands of our
legislatures some of that tender care
and nursing which has been extended
in the past to canals, to steamship lines
and to railroads, many of which have
grown up almost entirely at public ex'
penSe.

FEEDING DAIRY COWS.
Conditions That VIII Maintain u FUN
Flow of MIX.

One OF theimportanti items in making
dairying pay the best profits is to sup
ply such conditions as viii best main
tain a full flow of milk. It is not the
cow that gives the most milk for short
season after calving and while the pas
turage is at the best, that gives the most
profit, but the cow that gives a good
even flow the greater part of the year.
While there is much in habit there is
more in feed and management. A COW
that has been neglected, especially as
regards her feeding. during the middle
or latter part of summer, usually COM
nences failing in the quantity of milk
she will give until in six or seven months
after calving she goes dry.
Experience in the management of
cows has proved that it is much easier
to maintain a good flow of milk by
commencing to feed in good season
than to allow the milk flow to begin
to fail and then attempt to bring
her back to a full flow again. Hence
it is always best to keep a watch on the
pastures, and whenever they begin to
fail to commence feeding. Some dairy
men feed the cows a little mill feed
my AAb anu AAAOl LAAASo NH@A "44~A HSASIOA
age is at its best.
But on most farms all through the
growing season green feed is much the
cheapest. The second growth of clover,
miIlet, sowed sorghum or fodder can
be cut off and fed as needed, and if
care is taken to feed literally the flow
of milk can be maintained. More than
with any other kind of stock good feed
ing is necessary with the mich cows,
1t is only from the surplus food over
and above what is needed for the sup
port of animal life that the milk is
made and liberal feeding is necessary if
a full flow is maintained. With care in
good season the habit of milk-giving
during the greater part of the year can
be established, and this is always
valuable trait in the dairy COW.
The best time to commence to estab-
lish the habit of long milk-giving is
when the heifer is first giving milk,
but il regulated at that time and the
young cow is allowed to go dry early
now is a good time to begin. Feed well
and milk regularly. With care and
persistence this defect in the early
training may be overcome. But be sure
she has plenty to eat all through the
season.-St. Louis Republic.

The work of Strengthening the track and
reducing the grade at Tabbs Station on the
second division of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad was recently completed, and the
first train to use the new line was No. /, the
New York and st. Louis flyer. A heavy
grade and three bad curves have been elm
mated by this work. a mile east, at Meyer S
Hole, q similar improvement has also been
completed after months of work. Several
reverse curves and a nasty and dangerous
dip are done away with at this point. Near
Myers Hole, at Tablers, the alignment of the
track is being materially changed, and, as in
the other two improvements, bad grades
and sharp, annoying curves are being re
moved. This part of the work will be done
in sixty days and then series of very dan
gerous places will have been entirely re
moved. This work in its entirety means the
hauling of several additional cars in each
freight train, besides reducing the danger
of derailments to almost nothing. The sec
ond division, running from Cumberland to
Brunswick, will soon be in iirst-class con
dition and more cheaply operated than
ever.

COLUMBIA, Nc, Aug. 1.-THE grand
est celebration which has ever occurred
IN Boones county took place yesterday
AZ the new fair grounds, northwest
OF Columbia The object was to honor
the day when Missouri was admitted
into the Union, and the celebration
was called the missouri Day Exer-
clses- The almost phenomenal sue
cess OF the affair was a surprise to even
the most hopeful. The celebration
was attended by an immense crowd.
HE grounds were dotted with tents,
several bands discoursed from elevated
platforms, and on every hand Amer
lean flags futtered in the wind. The
center of attention was the platform
from which the addresses were de-
hvered, and thousands stood about it
with uncovered heads listening to
words of praise for grand old Missouri.
The first speaker was Hon. John 1.
Martin, of St Louis, America" was
the subject chosen, and in addition to
an intensely patriotic discourse on the
resouces of America, and Missouri in
particular, he found time to give quite
an impressive talk on the benefits to be
derived from secret orders.
A meeting was held by the old set
tiers OF Boone county, at which Ger.
Odon Guitar, of Columbia, presided.
An interesting feature was short talks
by the old settlers on their experiences
since they first came to the county. At
1880 o'clock a grand free dinner was
served on the grounds.

No RnkIpr. After Hnrveat..

Under old methods of harvesting the
steel rake was very important adjunct
to secure scattered grain. Yet even in
those days good farmers did not find
those rakings very valuable, as they
were always stained and often nearly
ready to sprout by alternate wet and
dry weather. The new harvesters leave
no rakings, and as what would other
wise be wasted is thus saved for market,
il makes a material addition to the
crop. We know farmers who used to
thresh the rakings separately and grind
them for hog feed rather than mix the
stained with the marketable grain.

why They should work Together in
the Good Roads Crusade.
Otto Dorner, of Milwaukee, Wis,
chairman of the good roads bureau of
the League of American Wheelmen, re-
Gently delivered an excellent good
roads address before the Chautauqua
assembly at Dixon, III. His remarks re-
lated especially to the attitude of the
league towards the farmers, and its
essential features, embodied in the fol-
lowing article, cannot fail to be of gen.
eraI interest:
Now the great question before US is,
said Mr.. Dorner, how shall we obtain
better country highways The ques-
ton is not, do we need good roads, but
how shall we get them? Road building
in the United States has been left en-
tirely in the hands of the farmers and
in charge of the local town authorities.
These local authorities as a rule have
no knowledge of the science of road
building, and so years of experience has
shown a great deal of labor wasted
and vast amounts of road taxes collect
ed in vain.
In. many places our roads to-day are
no better than they were 20 and 30 years
ago. A radical improvement in the sys-
tenn itself must be made.
The League of American Wheelmen
has been the subject of much criticism
on account of its agitation for better
highways. We have been accused OF
seIfishness in the matter.
