Milk In Bricks.

The inventors Of method by which
milk is now being solidifed on con-
siderable scale confidently believe
that their discovery will not only abol-
ish the many dangers Of the dairy, but
will eventually do away with the dairy
itself. They are confident, that is,
that the day Of liquid milk is over.
People who have tried to solidify
milk before have employed too low
temperature in their fear of decom-
posing it's fats and sugars, and in con-
sequence have failed. But by the
Just Hatmakor process the liquid milk
is whisked round polished cylinders
kept at fierce heat by steam, and
comes off in few seconds in the form
of continuous creamy white sheet
five feet in width. This is reduced to
powder, and may be compressed into
cakes.
The feature of the product is that
it is still potentially milk-the whole
milk and nothing but the milk, and to
make new milk at any time it is only
necessary to add the seven parts of
water which have been evaporated.
The result is said to be difficult to
distinguish from fresh milk. It's
cream rises naturally, and it may be
made into butter and cheese. The
powder cakes keep indefinitely, and
samples have been sent round the
world and kept for three weeks in
Shanghai, returning quite fresh.
Obviously it is impossible to water,
skim OF adulterate solid milk, and a
fact to which the inventors attach ex.
treme importance is that all attempts
to cultivate microbes on it have failed.

Col. LcRoy Springs, Of Lancaster,
s. c., cotton planter, cotton manuiac'
turcr, merchant, railroad president
and banker strollcl into the Nlannfac-
turer's Club. He no sooner hit the
top landing than Mr.. John NJ Miller,
cashier Of the First National Bank, Of
Richmond, Va, who was at the club,
addressed him with the query "Col-
oncl, how is cotton?
cts all right answered tie co!-
0lcl.
"a li,tlc high, perhaps? suggested
Mr.. Miller.
"Not at all, said the colonel. Al
present prices cotton would be pro
ftable crop. The fair cost of raising
cotton on IAN average is nine cents,
and the difference between nine cents
and present prices in short crop
like this is no more than a fair pro
fit"
If nine cents is the cost, how did
people live when cotton was five and
six cents pound?' inquired club
man who was attracted by the colonel s
approach.
"Those who depended on cotton
crop alone when cotton was six cents
did Mt live, answered Colonel Springs.
"When cotton was six cents the cot
ton farmers, white and black, had no
money, didn't have decent change of
clothes and everything was mortgaged.
A price Of cotton base d on labor under
pauper conditions is no honest price
at all. The present betterment in
prices is because people have quit
raising cotton under those conditions
to do something else. When cotton
was six cents it meant that the color.
ed farmer could not give his wife or
daughter change of one garment Of
underclothipg once year.
If cotton plantation be operated
on business principles and the planter
pay fair wages, he cant get out at
less than nine cents for cotton and
have fair returns on his investment.
Nine cents for cost Of production of
cotton, including interest on capital,
is about the same as 20 cents fer a
bushcl of wheat or 40 cents for corn,
and every body knows that wheat at
price below seventy cents or corn be.
low 40 cents is losing crop. Since
the price Of cotton fell below ten cents
majority Of planters have broken all
to pieces, both in the Eastern and
Western cotton States; properties
have been sold and the families of in
dividual cotton farmers have lived
like paupers, not having in many cases
. change Of underclothipg once a
year."
The colonel had advanced to the
middle Of the lobby Of the club and
quite crowd had gathered around
him.
"How can we hold the practical
monopoly Of cotton production al
prices above ten vents?" inquired o
member.

The Process Of Votins.

Firstly the prospective voter gives
his name to the watcher at the en-
trance to the room where the voting
is going on, and the watcher in turn
announces it to the judges, who, if
they find everything correct, he is
admitted.
TIL ballot handed to the voter by
the Judge when he enters inside the
railing contains the names of every
candidate to be voted for, the names
being arranged in alphabetical order
under the proper heading and fol-
lowed by the party name. AT the
head OF the ticket is box heading
which reads Il hereby vote straight
- ticket, except where |
have marked opposite the name OF
some other candidate" If the voter
wishes to cas-; a straight ticket, the
party nane is written in the blank
space and the ticket is returned to the
judges-folded-for numbering. If.
however, the voter wishes to vote for
one or more candidates on an oppo
site ticket, cross mark (X) should
be made in the square following the
name OF the opposing candidate he
favors after writing his party name in
the blank space provided. The tick
ct will then be counted for his party
candidates except the opposing candi-
dates WHO are specially marked with
an X.
Under the old plan, when the tick
cts were simply numbered on the
back, it was an easy matter to refer
to the corresponding number on the
poll list and learn exactly how any
one voted. Now, however, the num-
Der is placed on a corner of the ballot
the reverse side OF which is solid
black square, and the number is then
turned in and pasted securely down.
1t cannot be read through the paper,
and it cannot be opened except in
case OF a contest The voter is abso-
lutely protected in exercising his SOW
ereign right to cast his ballot just as
he desires.
To be eligible as voter you must
be properly registered and be full
citizen OF the United States, and must
have resided in the state full year
preceding the day OF the election. a
residence of three months in the
county and ten days in the precinct is
also required.

Insect Resembles a Flower.

BILE beautiful flower. 1t feeds on
butterflies, and while it is lying in
wait for them under spray Of
leaves it looks exactly like a blue
blossom with black spot in the
center resembling the tube of .
corolla. The back part of its body
is drawn out into long green stalk.
The resemblance to flower is per-
feet, and butterflies and other in
sects light on it in search of nectar
and are Immediately seized by its

1t happened that bulldog saw
its masters broken arm often dress
ed by surgeon. One day the same
surgeon was surprised by . paving
and scratching at his door. When
the door was opened he beheld two
dogs-his friends bulldog and an
other. The latter held up one of its
fore legs to the surgeon, who saw
that it was broken. He set the
broken limb in splints and in due
course the bones reunited and the
leg became whole. On another oc-
casion this very surgeon was sum-
moned to his door by the persistent
yelping of a dog standing on three
legs. The doctor examined the
fourth limb and found a pin stick
ing in it, which prevented the ami
NAL from using it without great
pain. The pin was extracted, and
the dog went away in ease.
