IS " GOOD 10 EAT WELL !?

Some people may he disposed To
laugh at the Boston clergyman who
asserts that the world Is becoming
hOpclcsSly wicked because we have too
many good things to eat. The Boston
dominic. however. Is merely the
evolved product of that dictctic phil
osOphy. fashionable just now, which
teaches that YOU cannot possibly find
anything wholesome to cat--that one
thing will destroy your stomach. an
other will annihilatc your liver and
still another will ruin your kidneys.
\ CONSENSUS of the experts IN this line
would undoubtedly show that our only
resource Is to stnrve to death, since
there Is nothing tit to eat or drink.
The Boston preacher has not got quite
that far along, but he Is in fair way

North Carolina Dairymen Organize.

Messrs. Editors: One of the inter
esting features of the State Farmers
Convention recently held at the A. &
NJ. College, Raleigh, N. O., was the
special session for the dairymen.
From the opening of the meeting
by the chairman, Mr.. @. @. Moore,
until the compile ton of the program,
the close attention accorded the
speakers and the many questions ask
ed, showed the need of a permanent
organization of this kind, where the
subjects of vital interest to the dairy
industry could be discussed. We
have only recently begun to consider
seriously the possibility of dairying
in this State Therefore questions
of handling and shipping dairy prod
ucts and cooperative manufacture
have but recently made themselves
felt.
We have not the space to go into a
discussion of the advantages of an
organization to those interested in
dairying, but we will simply state
that a State Dairymen's Association
was organized under very favorable
circumstances. Mr.. @. @. Moore, of
Charlotte, was elected president and
Mr.. J. @. Kendall, of the A. & M.
College, West Raleigh, was elected
secretary and treasurer.

to twenty minutes. The next step
in the development of the machine
was to replace the series of buckets
by a bowl rotating about a vertical
axis. Then followed the famous dis
covery of De Laval, who just twenty
one years ago--in 1S79-introduced
machine for continuous separation
that is, one into which milk could
be run at a regular rate as long as
desired and separated into cream and
skim milk Great improvements have
been made in the details of machines
since then, but the principle en-
ployed is still the same and always
will be so long as the separation of
the cream and skim milk are effected
by mechanical means.
