Some Good Advice.

The best place to store the cotton
is at the farm. This saves storage and.
#, you wish, for the time, insurance:
There will be enough cotton forced
upon the market for temporary use, so
that mill men AID dealers can wait upon
YOU and when the time comes for the
mass of the cotton to be placed for sale;
what surety is there that the price OF
the staple will have risen? The only
advantage in storing it is that you may
secure small advance per bale,
but this will be deducted with the IN
terest. insurance, storage, etc. at the
ruling price. The only time that cot
ton rises in price is just before the
planting season. Then let us be wise
in time, and not be fooled any more, but
prepare to SOW down grain and raise
hogs. intensity the system Of farming
and. if possible, make two bales OF cot
ton grow where only one grew before,
but make something to eat and lessen
the lien in order to gradually grow
measurably independent both OF 1t and
the cotton market.

Getting Tired Of It.

Mr.. Mckinley is said to be very
much disgusted at the position taken
BY Teddy Roosevelt, that his election
to be governor Of New y Iork is necessary
as an Endorsement Of the administration
and the war, and it would not be sur
prising if he should take some way Of
letting it become known that he would
not consider Roosevelt's defeat an af-
front to himself or his administration,
although pressure is being brought to
keen his mouth shut.

smothered With Cotton Seed.

While playing hide and seek in a
large pile of cotton seed Sunday after
noon a little child of Mr.. Robt. Prultt,
a prominent farmer living five miles
south of Anderson. S. G.. was smoth-
cred to death with the help Of other
children. \ large hole had been hol-
lowed out in the seed, and this little
one fell in and was buried beneath the
seed. When rescued the body was
warm and covered with perspiratlon,
but all efforts to resusitate the child
failed.

are as ignorant as dumb driven cattle.
To say that over six million Of voters,
representing nearly one-half OF the
entire population Of the country. are as
ignorant as dumb driven cattle because
they refuse to become the slaves OF
the Wall Street money power which
Russell Sage says now absolutely con-
trolls the country, simply illustrates to
what desperate straits the great hnan-

NEGRO MUST RETURN TO
AFRICA.

Washington, Nov. y.
To the Editor of the Journal:
Education has seemed only TO better
inform the negro of the fact that they
can never bc admitted to the family
circle of the white race or to domination
in government, whatever voting strength
they may possess in any locality. In
their resentment they resort to violence.
The conditions have been much ag-
gravated by putting guns and swords in
their hands, as soldiers, and making
them the peers of the white men in that
high character and most honorable ser
vice. The Republic should not depend
on any inferior race to defend its honor
on the battle field.
Their ultimate repatriation in Africa
is the only solution of the negro ques-
ton. but this may be far distant, and
should not be, in the least compulsory.
Once the movement has begun by volun-
tary migration, the Government should
aid it as duty to that race, and for
the sake of humanity.

MIGRATION THE TRUE SOLU-

TO the Editor of the journal:
There is but one perfect solution of
the negro question-that is migration.
believe that God is wiser than man.
There are certain ineradicable differ
ces between these races. History has
proven that it is impossible to make the
negro the white mans equal. We
should give the negro Il free hand in
another land. He was not made to rule
in the temperate zone of the white man.
L believe when the negro population
increases, and as it infringes on the
white race, serious conflicts will place
the negro in the North as he has been
placed in the South. dominant in pOpu-
latiOn, he will be aggressive and demand
all the privileges, personal and other
wise, of the white man. The white
man of the North will resent this.
If the negro of this country should
be sent into another climate, the United
States should exercise supervision until
permanent government were estab-
lisheG by them.

NO AGITATORS-NO RIOTS!

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. u.
To the Editor of the Journal:
Education alone will never correct the
evils that eliminate III race riots at cleo
tiOnS. For Il generation the people of
the South have taxed themselves ero-
neously to educate the negroes, and i'll
most instances it is, as in the case of the
North Carolina negro editor, an educated
negro who is primarily responsible for
race riots.
Legislation alone can prevent such oc-
currences. The ballot box must be
more closely guarded. The franchise
must he taken from the venal and
corrupt.
Virtue and intelligence alone must
WELD the ballot. Suppress agitators
white and black. by effective legislation
and race riots ut the polls will be Il
thing of the past.

Frankfort, Ky, Nov. n.
TO the Editor of the Journal:
For more than Il third of century
of profound peace the people Of the
United States have proven incapable of
settling the race question. 1t is no
nearer solution now than at the outset.
Notwithstanding this. an effort is
now being made to acquire other pos
sessions, and another has been attached,
the result of which will be not only to
bring under our jurisdiction and control
Malays, ignorant Negroes, Chinese, Jap
anese. Pigmies and lepers, thereby
greatly increasing racial troubles and the
difficulties attending their settlement,
buL the assumption of burdens and re-
sponsibilities, which will inevitably prove
onerous, expensive and exceedingly dan
gerous.
In view of the rash energies being
expended in this behalf abroad. there
is no time remaining for the settlement
of vexed questions of government at
home. Indeed, there seems much
grea ter anxiety to court similar difficult
ties in foreign lands than to prevent
them in our own.

The Ripening of Cheese.

well-cured cheese contains higher
per centage of fat than the same cheese
does when green, and this gave rise to
the idea that the action Of rennet, OF
of the fermentation process. caused
certain of the constituents of the
cheese to be converted into fat. Part.
ly with the object of testing this
theory, DIR. Caldwell has undertaken
an investigation of the changes which
occur in the curing of cheese. The
course pursued was to take several
green cheeses fresh from the hoop,
anAlyzo the same, and then keep them
in air-tight receivers to cure. By
daily examination of the air in the re.
ceivers, everything that was given off
from the cheese, or absorbed by it,
was traced and noted.
Without going into minute details,
it will be enough to say, in brief, that
the examination Of the air in the re.
ceivers showed that the cheeses all
alike rapidly gave off carbonic acid
and water, aud as rapidly absorbed
oxygen, in the early stages Of curing,
but afterward this steadily diminished.
The weighing showed steady loss in
the total dry substance Of the cheese
from oxidation, and loss in the total
of each solid constituent-fat and
casein--and that the casein lost more
than the fat, thus leaving the fat in
the cured cheese in larger proportion
than in its green stage, and demonstrat.
ing that the increased percentage OF
fat In the ripe cheese over that in its
unripe condition was not due to any
increase of fat in the curing process,
but to q greater loss Of cssein than fat
by oxidstion.--C. G. Freer-T r-Thonger.
