There Is mild epidemic OF measles
throughout this county, seventy or more
cases having been reported.
The cracked lips'' that has appeared
among the horses in this section Of the
county has been the cause Of death OF
many OF the animals throughout the upper
section of the county and some in this
vicinity. Harvey White, young farmer
near Poolesvilfe, has lost four very fine
draft animals. Joseph AIlnutt has lost two.
and several have died in vicinity OF Ger
mantown.
A lad ramed Harry Butts, who says he
mas no home. and who was taken to Wash
1ngton yesterday badly injured, was hurt
west OF Brunswick by falling from a freight
train. 1t Is supposed he was benumbed
from the effects Of the intense cold. and
dropped off. He was badly hurt about the
body. and had both of his legs broken. He
Is only fifteen years old. t,

NO BAIL FOR TILLMAN.
Chief Justice Pope Denies the Applica-
ton of Gonzales Murderer.

Chief Justice Pope, at Columbia, s. c..
yesterday afternoon refused to grant bail
to James H. Tillman. who is held for kill
ing n. G. Gonzales editor Of the State, but
gave him the right to apply to any other
judge. This can be done on the ground of
after-discovered evidence. but it il not be-
lieved any circuit judge would grant bail
after it has been refused by the chief JUS
tice.
In his decision tbs chief justice said 1t
was undoubtedly true that Tillman had I'M
dergone an ordeal OF the bitterest attacks
on the part Of Gonzales in his newspaper,
the bitterest in the annals OF the state.
But the question was whether Tillman was
actuated by malice when he killed Gonzales
and as to that the judge said there could
not be doubt
He said that he had but recently taken
the oath of Office. and with that oath fresh
on his lips. however much he regretted to
do 50. would be compelled to refuse bail
He, however. issued an order allowing APP
plication to be made to any other judge IL
Tillman so desired.

PRIVATE RIVER TUNNEL.
Dock Company to Dig Under East
River, New York.

The New York Dock Company is to dig
tunnel under the East river and build
an elevated railroad structure along the
Brooklyn waterfront from Catherine
Ferry to Red Hook. The plan is to con-
meet the Manhattan properties Of the COM
pany with those in Brooklyn for improy.
ing their facilities for handling freight and
merchan dise.
The route Of the tunnel has not been de-
cided upon, but engineers have been d.
rected to make soundings from South
Ferry to the Brooklyn bridge. in order
that spot where construction will be the
easiest may be selected. The company
expects no difficulty in obtaining permits
and franchises, because. they say, the tun-
mel and elevated road VIII obviously be so
beneficial to the business interests OF both
boroughs.

Paying Rent in Butter Fat,

An unusual method of paying rent
for land, which is to be tried in the
irrigated alfalfa district Of California
may be found in the prospectus of a
land company, which advertises to
rent its land to dairy tenants fo-
one-third of the butter fat produced
by the cows running on this irrigat ted
land. The tenant then gets for his
share two-thirds of all the butter fat
in addition to the calves and pigs pro-
duced on the place. The tenant must
furnish his own cattle, so that he
ought to take as much pride in
keeping the herd up to a high stand.
ard ns il he owned the land. 1t is
expected that the land company's in
tcrest will be equal to fair rate OF
interest on valuation of $1OO per
acre. A thrifty tenant with good
cows should be able to make a hand.
some profit besides supporting his
family in comfort.

The Coloring of Butter.

Since butterine is sold under its
natural color the makers of winter
butter have found the lack of color
in their product somewhat detri-
mental to its sale or imagine they
have so found. Some are advocating
coloring all the butter to resemble
June butter and thus distinguish il
from butterine. This is q point of
not so much value as some might
suppose. There is not the same rea-
son for coloring butter uniformly as
there was 10 color butterine to re-
semble butter. Yellow butterine was
sold for butter. White butterine is
not sold for butter, and is not likely
to be. Even the whitest of butter
does not look like butterine. We do
not attach much Importance to the
question of coloring butter, and be-
lieve the less color used the better

a piece of old saw blade makes a
good knife. The thickness of slice
may be regulated by putting pieces
of board between front piece and
knife. Lower end of bottom should
raise just to the edge of knife and
drop below sufficient to catch a
slice.
The cutter is operated by pushing
the handle downward, thus forcing
the roots on the end of bottom board
up against the knife.-F. +. George,

MANAGING MILK cows.
Much of che Dair man's Success with
His stock Depends on Careful,
Regular Milking.

/ wish to give you few hints on
milking cows. The fam hand who
knows how to milk properly is more
valuable to the careful dairyman than
any other help. To, milk COW re-
quires time and patience. The milk
should be drawn. SLOWLY and steadily.
Some cows have very tender teats,
and if you want a well-disposed COW,
be gentle in your treatment toward
her, as she is naturally impatient and
does not like rough handling. With
constant irritation she will fail in
quantity of milk. AS the udder be-
comes filled with milk she is anxious
- be relieved of its contents and Will
seldom offer resistance without u
cause. When patient COW becomes
fractious we can always trace it to
the mixer. Note this: We should
not allow them to stand a long time
waiting to be MIXED. When cows
give a large quantity of milk it is
very painful when the udder has
filled to the utmost therefore causing
them to become very nervous and
restless. To delay milking at the
proper time will do more to cause
cow to go dry before her period
than anything else. She should also
be MIXED to the last drop, if pos
sible, for the last portion of milk is
said to be the richest. Still another
point: There are many ways OF con-
ductng a dairy. Among these are:
Wholesome food, such as wheat bran,
cottonseed meal. Always be careful
TO keep the COWS well salted, pro-
tected from bad weather, giving kind
handling, careful milking, regular
feeding, clean stabling, good ventila-
ton and plenty of pure water. In
some sections we have what is called
bitter weed, which cows are fond of,
causing the milk to become so much
affected that it is hardly fit for use.
1 find that by giving the cow about
two tablespoonfuls of sugar at each
meal for two or three days the milk
is entirely relieved of the bitter
taste.-Barnum's Midland Farmer.

Money in Feeding CaIyes.

81 can take three calves" says I. f..
B. Sotham, the noted Hereford breed
er, land make them gain two pounds
apiece per day on the same amount
of feed which is needed to make one
mature steer gain two pounds, thai
is, six pounds of gain on calves for
two on a steer. Double the money
can be made by feeding calves that
can be made on two-year-olds. A man
must feed stock with good blood, and
then he will not be in financial
troubles. Let him buy calves and
fatten them. 1t is by far better
system than putting two-year or
three-year-old steers into the feed
lot"
