The first essential for the production
of good milk is healthy cows, says a
writer in Scribner's Magazine. The
work of the lungs in purifying the
blood for the manufacture of milk is
too near the danger line to use the milk
from a tuberculous animal. 1t is also
important that the mixer should be in
perfect health. Germs of disease are
thrown off in breathing and coughing
and epidemics have been known to
start in this way. The feed should be
sweet and free from must and any
abrupt change avoided.
A great deal of criticism is made as
to silage feed, but where it is made a
part of the ration with other feeds in
proportion the favor of the milk will
be benefited. See to it that the water
ing place is clean and free from slime
and fertilizer
1t seems to be a difficult thing in dali
ry management to secure clearly condi-
tons in a COW stable About ninety
nine out of hundred are far from
sweet and clean; the offensive odorS
contaminate the breath, blood and It's
sue of the animal, and consequently
a first class article of milk cannot be
produced. The barns should be busted
often and whitewashed at least once a
year not only to give them a good APP
pearance and make the stable lighter
but to purify them and kill any germs
of disease that may have collected on
the walls and ceilings.
Quiet and Milk Secretion.
AS the milk glands are under direct
control of the nervous system, any con
dlitions which affect the nervous sys-
TEN will react upon the milk producing
glands. Any undue disturbance of the
normal distribution of the nervous
force will divert some of the blood SID
ply from the milk glands to some other
part of the body and thus diminish the
milk flow. The well known phenon
non of en- giving down the milk s
the result of lack of nervous tone a
the gland brought about by some sort
of excitement The udder is not a CON
tainer in which the milk is ready stored
up at milking time, but an organ Il
which, as has already been pointed o !.
the greater part Of the milk is ela
rated while milking or sucking is in
progress by virtue Of the agitation pro.
duced. Unless the COW is in perfect re-
pose this secretion will not take place
normally. The lesson to be derived
from this is that the COW should ,,e
treated with the greatest gentleness
and be otherwise kept free from excite
ment, especially during the time OF
milking or sucking. Exchange.

Notes From Texas Farm and Ranch


If you want runt pigs wean them
early and feed them lightly. You can
raise runts successfully.
Every up to date farmer should be
his own seed improver. To improve
seed is entirely practicable, but rel
quires some know how and some dc
how.
There are many new crops and new
methods that are great Improvements
over the old. Every progressive farm
er should devote a portion of his time
to experimental work.
One expensive abomination often
seen on farms is a wide mouthed well
inside the barn or near enough to be-
come foully contaminated by drainage
from stables or manure heaps.
In buying fancy farm seeds at fancy
prices require satisfactory evidence
that the seed is genuine and true to
name and see that it is thus assured
by known and competent authority

abundance. The fruit, with the excep-
ton of that produced by the Peento
and one or two others, is roundish in
outline and occasionally blunt pointed.
Those varieties which more closely re-
semble the parent Peento have decid-
eddy or slightly noyau favor. In other
varieties this favor is entirely lacking,
and it may be acid, subacid or sweet.
The skin is easily removed. and the
stone may be either free or cling. The
greater number of the varieties ripen
their fruit by July l. Among best
known sorts are Angel, Bidwell, Jewel
and Waldo.

Uncertain Onion Crop.

fully weigh reports concerning the ma
turing crop before placing too much
faith in dealers estimates of a large
yield. Preliminary reports received by
the New England Homestead from the
principal growing states indicate that
Ohio will probably have considerably
increased yield, but New York. Con
necticut and Massachusetts are not
likely to exceed last years returns {

western states is still very uncertain
but fairly promising as a whole, espe-
cially in Wisconsin and Illinois.

Cutting Back the Hydrangea.

The rule in pruning shrubs is to
prune just after the shrubbery has fin
ished towering. There are shrubs like
the well known Hydrangea paniculata
which bloom quite late in the fall. As
a rule fall blooming shrubs will stand
more cutting back than those which
bear their blossoms in the spring.
Spring boomers bear flowers on last
years shoots. Fall flowers are usually
on the current year's.-Cor. Country

THE PEENTo PEACHES.
SubtropicaI Fruits of Especial Value
In the South

According to H. H. Hume in a bulle-
tin from the Florida experiment sta
ton, the Peento peach belongs to a
group of peaches that is essentially
adapted to tropical conditions. The
group is limited in its adaptations in
this country to the states of Florida,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and
to the coast regions of Texas. The
successful culture of Peento peaches in
Florida promises to that state a con-
troll Of the early peach market and sue
cessful competition with other states
in the late peach market.
AS to some of the characteristics of
this group Mr.. Hume says: The flowers
are large and pink and are produced in

Some days ago the Telegram advocated
the erection and maintenance Of house
for smallpox treatment. Some call it a
pe.t.house. That is the usual term in
speaking Of such a place. and it j. more
or less obnoxious. The city need not call
it that. but detention house or hos.
pital. That feature Is triling, however.
The main point is to have such place.
The need Of such a place Is empha-
sized BY the fact that a business house
is now under quarantine. That would
be unnecessary. If the city or county had
such a place a the Telegram suggests
While there seems no way to avoid II;
yet one who does not have II, j. but

reputation. He accepted a position on
the News and Courier staff. Afterwards
he was Washington correspondent. He
served an apprenticeship in every depart
ment of newspaper work and mastered
his calling. He was prodigious worker.
The career of the State has been a
stormy one. 1t took years to make it a
financial success, but the industry, pluck
and genius OF the brave young South
Carolinian, whose Cuban ancestry made
him an ardent lover of liberty, had made
his paper valuable property. He had
fought long and bravely to get to a place
where he might relax his strenuous
labors. Success had smiled upon his eff
forts. He looked forward confidently to
a long and useful career when the bull
let of the assassin, without warning, cut
him down in his prime. 1t is great loss
to Southern journalism, to the honest
independent journalism that breaches
true gospel, and to his State that needs
courageous fighters.

Under the Dome.

At the last session Of the Legislature
a bill was passed, at the lnstonce OF
Representative Nicholson, of Beaufort,
entitled IAN Act to Prevent Felllng Inn
Der Trees in Streams in Beaufort Count,
which provided in it's body that foreign
corporations should not cut timber IN
North Carolina and take 1T out or the
State to be manufactured into lumber.
There is now a bill pending before the
Senate Judiciary committee TO repe2l
this act The practical operation OF that
law has been to require foreign lumber
corporations to become domestic and
amenable to North Carolina laws and
has required them to establish LUMBER
plants in the State. One concern invested
500, 900 in this State because of this bill.
There are number of others who nave
also made large investments because or
the bill, and have also given employ
ment to many people.
The bill was postponed by the commit
tee in order to give those interested an
opportunity to be heard. There is likely
to be an interesting fight on the bill to
repeal.

suppression must be approached by de-
grees. Our people are slow to adopt
sllmptuary measures, even il 1t is eVl-
dent their adoption would be to the Nigh
est interest of society. We will not dls-
cuss how such a measure for the sup
preston of strong drink approaches
sumptuary law, but we do not believe IT.
would be wise to enact a prohibitory law
at the present time The evil must be
overcome by degrees. Let the General
Assembly require the distilleries to be
located in incorporated towns where they
can be subjected to strict police regula-
lions, Also let the towns decide by vote
whether or not they desire such an in
stitution within their border. BY this
means q great step would be taken to
rid the State CT these nuisances.
How to raise revenue has always been
a grave question before legislative
bodies. Under the changed industrial con-
Gition of these modern times this ques-
ton has become much more serious. Dur
ing the last two decades all civilized
countries have undergone rapid changes
in the process of producing wealth. Sys-
TENS Of raising revenue that were ade-
ouate in the times of our fathers are
now incompatible with the present con-
dition of things. The production of
wealth must always lie to a great extent
in the tillage of the soil and the working
Of mines, yet the wealth. gathering
sources in these modern times are found
in the changing of these under materials
of field and mine into a finished product,
and the transportation of these products
to the place of consumption. Hence the
Profits that accrue are found in tho
hands of the manufacture and the party
who owns the ways of transit. Therefore
these should bear the greater part of the
burden of the support OF the government.
Taxes and franchises and incomes is the
only system in keeping with this modern
industrial age.
