There are many requisites that go
to make good cream and to make sue
cessful dairying, says the Dairyman.
From my experience I will say that
cleanliness leads the list-a clean place
for the cows to be MIXED, clean feed
lots and sheds, good ventilation i'm
the milking stable, clean strainers and
cloths, pals and separators. This is
a start and you can now consider your
self on the road to clean, pure milk
and cream.
Next to cleanliness patience and
Kindness are foremost essentials to
successful dairying. Kindness will,
particularly il he has quite a large
herd and depends upon help outside,
win the most stubborn COW, as a rule,
and If not the sooner she goes to the
butcher the better. 1t requires patience
to go through the fly season and milk
cows. and not lose your temper or not
use strong language, but If you stand
the test you are master of the bust
ness.
Having gotten your herd well under
way, either a, large or small, the first
proposition TO claim your attention is
what / would term the sorting out
process" the wedding out of cows that
for one cause or another prove unde-
sirahle. Improbable: COWS that kick,

How the Kershnw Mob Avenged the
Death of Floyd.
Charleston, S. c., Oct 2.-Further de-
tails of the lynching of John Morri-
son, the white man who killed Will
IT. Floyd Saturday at Kershaw, have
been received.
Immediately after the killing of
Floyd and the arrest of Morrison, feel
ing became intense. There was lit
tie said. but it soon became known
that the sheriff at Lancaster was on
his way to assist in protecting the
prisoner.
An electric light had been placed
before the guard house door and po-
liceman was on guard. At about 8
o'clock the light went out and a crowd
poured into the alley, overpowered the
policeman, took the keys and brought
Morrison out. He was taken just out
side the town limits and hanged to
tree with pair of buggy lines. Two
shots were fired into Morrison's back
as he swung
Sheriff Hunter of Lancaster, with
deputies, arrived at Kershaw on a
special train a few minutes after the
guardhouse was forced and probably
heard the pistol shots. He began
searching for the lynching party and
found the body about midnight. Troops
from Camden arrived later.
An inquest was held and the usual
verdict rendered. No arrests have
been made.

PLAN FOR BREASTPLATES
SEEMS TO HAVE MlSCUED.

Rome. Oct. 2-Some time ago the
Russian Government ordered 100, 900
bullet proof breast plates of the type
invented by Signor Benedetti. The lat
ter recently started for st. Petersburg
to supervise the manufacture of the
breast plates, but was stopped at Mu-
mich by the Italian firm to which he
had sold the rights to manufacture and
which objected to Signor Benedetti's
Intervention I'm the matter. and he re-
turned to Italy.
The firm had also undertaken to sup
ply the japanese government with 20O,-
900 breastplates Now that the Russian
contract has been broken, 1t seems
that Japan wishes to back out of its
engagement, proposing to pay the
losses sustained by the firm through
the abrogation Of the contract.

CROWD WAS lNCENSED

Whitc Man.

Wheeling, w. Va, Oct. 2.-Carl Get
chell, young white man, was shot
and killed to-day at Belaire, O., oppo-
site this city, by Jack Terry, a ne
gro.
A great crowd chased the negro, who
was captured within half an hour on
the outskirts of the city. officer Goods
and Marshal Malone, who soon came
to the assistance of the arresting Of
ficer, drew their revolvers and held the
crowd at bay until other officers ar
rived, when a Gordon was formed, and
amid jeers and threats the murderer
was taken to the city Jail, where he is
now confined.
Tonight the excitement in Belaire is
general and there are fears of lynch
ing. Terry had made insulting remarks
to Getchell and shot him three times
when the latter invited him to meet
him elsewhere in a fistic argument.

wheat Seeding.

Wheat Seeding-Costly experience
has taught most farmers that too ear
ly sowing of wheat is to invite the
attacks of the Hessian fly, says the
Practical Farmer. While early SOW
ing may be better for the wheat plant
where the winters are severe, since
it gets greater strength before the
cold weather sets in the risk of
the fly is too great to enable us to
gain this advantage. Hence it has been
found that late seeding avoids the fall
brood of flies and is far safer for the
crop. Still, late seeding is a relative
term. On the northern boundary of the
winter wheat section late September
may still be the best time. But as we
go southwark the date of sowing
should be later. In the greater part of
the Middle States. Oct. 10 to Is is
early enough for wheat sowing, and
as we go south of the Potomac, with
the exception of the mountain country,
November is early enough, and one of
the finest crops of wheat ever made in
North Carolina was sown the middle of
December after cotton. But the exact
date is of less Importance than the
weather. Hence we have always adj
vised farmers to defer the seeding
until after there has been one good
white frost. This will made a better
rule than the date in the almanac.
We would also repeat that the fine
preparation of the soil and thorough
settling are of more Importance than
the kind or amount of commercial fer
tilizer applied. The harrow cannot be
used too often during the fall. As
TO the amount of seed per acre, we
would vary it with the fertility OF
the land. On strong soil. where the
wheat plant will tiller freely five pecks
is an abundant seeding. but on thin
ner soils the amount should be In
creased to six or seven pecks per acre.

this was done the boards were nailed

Mr., Oliver, and presume no warmer

Why Birds Live Lono,

Why do birds live so much longer
than mammals, which are often a hun
dred times their size? Possibly, among
other things, because they have beaks
instead of teeth. All carnivorous
beasts become weak and liable to star
vation, as their teeth drop out or
break. Neither are the herbivorous
animals in much better case. Old
horses would probably die Of starva.

them; indeed, in some stony countries
old horses have to be killed because
Stheir teeth are worn away by cropping
