can't have a Democratic party II the
mouths of certain Democrats are to be
closed. and honors are to be withheld
from them because they refused to
desert Democratic principles to take up
with Populist heresies. Are these men
to do all the voting and somebody else
to get all the usufruct? Not by a id
sight. That is something for the
Democratic party to learn also. What

while managed to escape. In
the parsuit several shots were
fired at the negro, who took to
the swamp.
The negro was pursued by quite
a party, but he was finally caught
by Mr.. j. g. Murphy, who
brought him to Orangeburg and
lodged HIM i'll Jail the SAINT evens

his efforts to escape before his ar

time to be rather seriously woun,

but he died this morning from the
effect of his wounds. The negro
was known as Lawrence Gadsder

Stew one pint of potatoes for twenty
minutes with one slice of onion, one
bay leaf and one sprig of parsley.
Press through sieve and return to the
stove. Scald one quart Of milk. Rub
together one large tablespoonful of
butter and two Of -four until smooth.
Add little of the scalded milk to the
butter and -four, stir until all Jumps
are gone, then turn into the remainder
Of the milk, stir continually until it
thickens. Add one teaspoonful Of
sugar to the tomato. Dissolve one
half of teaspoonful of soda in little
warm water, add to the tomatoes, and
take at once from the stove. Strain
the milk into the tomatoes, season and
serve at once.
The success Of this soup depends
upon the tomatoes being added to the
milk SO it will not curdle. This can
rarely be done on the stove, and the
soup cannot be reheated. Add the
milk to the tomatoes when ready for

Don't use galvanized iron squeezer.
When brought in contact with the
lemon it forms poisonous salt.
When anything is made too salt it
can be counteracted by adding table
spoonful Of vinegar and tablespoon
full Of sugar.
To clean copper utensils use half a
lemon dipped in salt for securing cop
per pans, etc., and afterward rinse
thoroughly in clean water. Finish by
polishing with soft cloth.
A cheap paint for iron fencing is
made as follows: Mix tar and yellow
ochre together. 1t will make a good
green color and is excellent for paint
ing rough woodwork and iron.
If possible shrink all seersuckers and
ginghams before making them up, and
see that they are smoothly ironed in or
der to permit of the patterns being laid
on exactly. Guesswork and allowances
are always unsatisfactory in results.
Besides beating all woolens thor
oughly before packing them away,
scrutinize them carefully for grease
spots. Cleanse with soap and water
when the fabric admits of such treat
ment, or, if not, with any of the clean
ing fluids. Otherwise great moth hsles

them up in the fall, in spite of tar

THE COUNTY FAIR.

Much may be said in favor or a
county fair. Its educational features
are excellent reasons for keeping up.
the home fair. Improved live stock of
every class is brought before the farm
ers. Interest in improved live stock
is strengthened.
But there are many hindrances in
showing live stock at the county fair.i
The premium lists are indefinite and.
may be made to take in all the cross,
breeds. In the sheep department. they
often have downs type, as they call
it.
This means that Hampshire downs,
Shropshires, Southdowns and all their
various crosses may compete for the
same prize. The Judge knows little or
nothing about breeding types. If he
sees a large, well-framed black face,
with good lengthy wool probably a
Shropshire, Cotswold cross, it is the
prize winner, and the man with the ex.
pensiye pure-bred returns home dis
gusted. Not until our county fair
managers are selected from the breed
ing fraternity can we expect to make
the county fair of advantage to the
farmer. Farm products of the high
est type must come in competition with
each other. The race horse draws the
crowds, and often gets the farmers
money, but does practically nothing
toward educating the farmer-W. B.
Anderson, in the indianapolis News.

CLEAN THE HOGS.

To give the pigs a thorough scrub
bing may appear to be labor thrown,
away, but if two lots of hogs are treat;
ed alike in every respect, except that
one lot receives a thorough scrubbingl
with soapsuds once in while, there;
will be marked difference in favor of
the hogs that are washed when the.
time for. slaughtering arrives. A clean:
bed of straw, with a dry house, so as
to afford them comfort at night, will,
also promote thrift and growth. The
hog is naturally a clean animal and
enjoys bath. # considered filthy
animal that devours filthy food it is:
because of the treatment given. Hogs
will select clean and wholesome food
always if given the opportunity to do
so.
