Change in Management.

An almost complete change in the
management of the Union Cotton
Mills, was effected at meeting of the
stockholders recently. At this meet
ing, four directors and the treasurer,
T. C. Duncan, resigned and in the
subsequent election the following we'll
known and substantial business men
were elected directors of the Union
Cotton Mills: Emslie Nicholson, presi-
dent Monarch Cotton Mills; T. c.
Duncan, president Union and Buffalo
Mills, all of Union: H. C. Fleitman,
capitalist, New York; W. NJ. Win
chester, banker, Spartanbury; E. W.
Robertson, Banker, Columbia, Direc-
tors Buffalo Mills: F. NJ. Farr, pres
dent National Bank; A. II. Foster,
capitalist; T. C. Duncan, all of Union
with the same out-of-town directors
as the Union Mills.
Mr.. E. W. Robertson, of Columbia,
was elected treasurer Of both mills,
and has entire management of the f.
nanceS.
Expert accountants are now going
over the books of the Buffalo Mills
and until their reports are handed
in nothing can be known of the Ga,
bilities of the mill.
The Union Cotton Mill runs $4,000
spindles and $500 looms, has capital
stock of $1,1OOO,OOO. and employs
1000 persons. The equipment of the
Buffalo Mill comprises $4,000 spindles
and 1000 looms, 500 people being en-
ployed.

Utilizing Hand separators:

T. G. Claiborne writes: After reed-
ing our calves we have six gallons of
milk daily, which IS set in dish pans
in a cool cellar and churned every Sec
ond day. In the fall and, winter we
get satisfactory results, but at this sea-
son there seems to be very little cream
and butter. We have thought the sap
py condition Of young grass the cause.
I should like fresh skim milk for the
calves, and think perhaps a separator
would pay. Any suggestions Will be
thankfully received"
Answer: The trouble you are exper-
fencing with your milk is not unusual
at this season Of the year. The cream
ing of milk, as you probably know, de-
pends largely on the specific gravity
between the milk serum which con-
tains the solids not fat and the fat
globules. When the fat globules rise
to the surface, which they ordinarily
do because they are lighter than the
milk, they constitute the cream. 1t
has been definitely shown by repeated
experiments that milk creams more
rapidly when thoroughly chilled imme-
diately after milking than under any
other conditions. This is due in a
large measure to the fact that the i'm
mediate chilling Of the milk prevents
the formation Of fibrin and other like
substances found in minute quantities
in milk, but yet sufficient in amount to
entangle the fat globules as they rise
TO the surface and hold them within
its mesh. The formation Of lbrin
takes place rapidly in milk freshly
drawn from the cow and which has not

Big Cotton Mill Plant.

The purchasers of the Tennessee
Manufacturing Co. s big cotton mill
plant will spend $205,000 for new
machinery with which to fit up Mill
No. 2, which is to be run by W. r.
Odeli and associates. Not long since
it was announced that Mr.. Odell, of
North Carolina, and a number Of local
capitalists had purchased the Tennes-
see Manufacturing Co.'S property in
North Nashville for $145,000. That
these gentlemen are in earnest is
shown by the fact that they have
taken out their charter, that it has
been registered at the Office of the
Secretary Of State and the company is
now in existence. The capital stock
Of the company is placed at 100000,
and the new concern is to be known
by the corporate name of the Warioto
Cotton Mills. The purchasers will
hardly get possession of the property,
however, before July l, 1906, owing to
the fact that George Goodwin has a
lease on it until that time. Mill No. l
been sold to the Morgan Hamilton
Co., to be used by them as a bag fact

oto Cotton Mills will meet for organi-
cation on Sept. %. The incorporators

trated article on growing the dewberry.
It recommends setting about three Dy
five feet, on good soil. The canes are
allowed to run on the ground the frst
year. Breaking the vines when cuiti-
waiting is prevented by always running
the cuitivator the same way. Early.
in the spring, before growth COM
mences, build low trellis by setting
posts along the rows about ten feet
apart and rising above the ground only
one foot; on each post nail cross piece
two feet long. Stretch light wire
along the outer end Of these arms, on
each side; No. 10 or II will be heavy
enough. Tie up the canes on the wires
equally on each side. This trellis VIII
keep the fruit up out Of the dirt and
make it much easier for the pickers to
get all the berries.

SOUTHERN :: EARM I: NOTES.


I been Immediately chilled. Therefore,
| it is easy to understand why your
milk, under the conditions mentioned
in your letter, does not cream satisfac-
torily during the warm weather. I
Under your conditions hand separ.
ator will solve most Of the difficulties
with which you have to contend and
enable you to secure virtually all the
fat in the milk without much added
labor. The centrifugal force gener-
ated by the separator Is so powerful
that it overcomes the action Of the
Hbrin and enables the perfect separa<.
ton Of the milk and cream. Besides
that 1t leaves the skim milk in an ideal
condition for feeding calves or other
young stock which may be maintained
| on the farm. Furthermore, by SKIM
ming the milk and adding such ad-
juncts as f1axseed jelly with a little
dry corn and bran you can raise just
| as good calves as you now raise on the
whole milk. By the use Of separator
therefore, you can economic in sew
| eral directions and obtain more satis-
factory results than you are securing
to-day. A good hand separator large
enough to handle the product from six
to ten COWS can be purchased for from
$50 to $40, and you can save enough
milk fat in the course Of year or two
to more than pay for the machine. A
hand separator if properly cared for
| will last for several years, and is COM
paratiyely simple to operate, but it re-
quires competent supervision. By the
use of a separator you get all the fat
in the milk and you reduce the bulk OF
cream which it is necessary to cool by
spring water or other artificial means
to the minimum.
While grass tends to increase the
flow Of milk, as do other succulent
foods, it does not Of necessity reduce
the amount Of fat, and it would be
more likely to favorably affect the
creaming Of milk than to retard it.
Your difficulty, as already explained:
Is due to other causes. - Professor

The Sheen Industry.

Certainly the high price Of wool will
stimulate the raising Of sheep in the
South. We have always liked sheep,
and deplored the fact that so few were
raised in the South. If you asked a
farmer why he did not raise sheep, he
would reply, "he feared the ravages
Of the dogs" Now, every phase or
farm operations has its drawbacks,
but it seems very weak to give way to
such an obstacle. If our farmers
would set themselves to the task, we
are confident they could find out way
to restrain the hungry cur within
proper bounds. Think Of the wool SELL
ing in Georgia at thirty-two cents a
pound. We met farmer while attend
ing the institute in Douglas, Ca, who
said: "I have not sold my cotton yet"
We replied, "You should sell now while
you can get ten cents, and then you
could settle up, and hold your new cot
ton If the price went below ten cents"
He said, II have no selling to do. 1
sold several hundred dollars worth OF
wool here last week, and I have no
need for the money for my cotton"
We wish there were a thousand more
like him, who were growing wool and
mutton enough to pay their expenses;
It would help much in the cotton-hold-
ing movement. OF course it would be
foolish to go into sheep raising, ex-
pecting wool to remain at present high
price. But you can rely upon this
that our country is getting SO thickly
settled and our cities are growing SO
RAPIDLY, that both mutton and wool VIII
always bring sufficiently high prices to
repay any careful shepherd. We hope
many farmers will add small flock
Of some good breed Of sheep to the live
stock property upon their farms. we
are proud that several men In South
Georgia can count their focks by the
thousand. If you propose to branch
out any, be sure to include sheep In
your list. 1t will be no more dificult
to contend with the enemies which be-
set the sheep, than it will be the black
root, rust, caterpillar, boil worm anu
the boil weevil upon your cotton

Turnips-A Valuable Crop.


mends turnips. Whether you relish
them as food for yourself and family
or not, they are a profitable crop to
grow for stock feed. For the latter
purpose we would advise planting only
the cowhorn variety. 1t grows rapidly
and will furnish more feed per acre
than any other variety except the ruta-
bagas.
The turnip is certainly valuable
crop used to the best advantage and
it is no exaggeration to say that it is
a sorely neglected crop here in the
South.
If turnips were valued to the extent
that they should be there would be
twenty times the area devoted to their
culture.
Even as table vegetable the turnip
is worthy Of higher appreciation
than it receives. 1t is an excellent
food for all healthy stomachs. AS
much more or less space should be
given it in the kitchen garden and two
seasons appropriate to their culture
early spring and early autumn.
There is no crop easier to grow than
is, once the soil is properly prepared
TO receive the seeds.
August is the month for sowing for
all the rough-leaf varieties. Septem-
Der is the next best month. The land
should be in a good state Of prepara-
ton by August 10, and it is we'll to
SOW just after a good rain vets the
soil and compacts it. 1t is not safe to
SOW on freshly turned soil, as it dries
Off so fast. Unless it rains very soon
after the seeds are likely to spoil before
terminating.
To make a big crop Of turnips 1t is
always wen to mix several kinds to-
gether, at least three.
A good mixture is fat Dutch, Cow
horn and Aberdeen, and If possible,
add also Purple Kashuyre and Yellow
Globe. The seeds should be'well mixed
together in equal proportions and sown
freely enough to insure stand. Seeds
are cheap, and it pays to get perfect
stand at the start.
} On land at all rich, it Is not difficult
to make at least 500 bushels Of turnips
on an acre.
On the dairy farm, or where hogs
and sheep are kept, turnips have q
value much beyond what mere chem
ical analysis would show them to be
worth. A certain amount Of succu-
lent food is very essential to the health
Of animals in the winter when there
is no grass or other green food. In
| the total absence Of all other green
food there may be times on the dairy
farm where there are very fine cows
when turnips may well be valued as
high as 81 per bushel. A peck Of them
fed even in one meal or two may ward
Off or cure indigestion frequently and
thus prevent worse ills,
Turnips boiled with cOttonseed is one
Of the best and cheapest milk-produc-
ing feeds that we can use in the South.
They can be produced at cost of five
cents per bushel, easily, but If they
cost three times that sum, they ought
to be largely grown on every farm, es-
pecially for cattle, hogs and sheep.
Horses and mules, too, will be bene-
fted by small feed Of them In the
absence of other green food. The
sulphur that Is in turnips tends to
make them healthy food that purifies
the blood, promoting a healthy appe-
tite. By all means, sow one acre and
see If 500 bushels cannot be made and
very easily, too. Top dress with ma.
nure and the land will be in fine con-
dition for the following crop. =
