Must Have Good Care.

Many farmers object to the Jer.
sey or Guersey or to any breed
of dairy cattle because "they are
not good rustlers." What they
really mean is that they will not
bear neglect, cold and poor care,
and still give generous flow of
milk. That is true. No man
ever saw a cow or breed of cows,
that will give the most profitable
returns and have to rustic" for
feed and care. Even the beef
breeds do not make fine beef in
that way. But this comparing
things that differ is the bane of
the average farmers judgment
Measuring a dairy cow, her needs
and what she should do to sup.
ply those needs, by what he knows
about scrub cattle is altogether
too common a thing. That is the
reason so many farmers are
keeping poor cows and keeping
them poorly at that. That Is the
reason why we see so many un.
dairy soables, so much poor judg.
ment in curing forage, in adapt
ing grain feed, in the herdtoi
cows is handled. Give the dairy
bred cow the treatment allaround
that belongs to her and she will
respond with the highest profit of
any cattle.-Hoard's Dairyman.

storm, when it seemed as if every
thing would be drowned. The
captain assured him there was no
danger yet, "for," said he, "you
can hear the sailors cursing.-
When real danger comes they
will stop that" The minister
made a visit to the part of the
ship where the sailors were at
work and returned with the re-
port" THANK God, they are still
cursing." The old ship of state
is still afioat, and the law is still
triumphant.

Columbia Record: Gen. Robert
T. Lee, the peerless christian of
the Confederate armies, was born
January 10th, 1907, and next
January will see the one hun
dredth anniversary of his birth.
, The suggestion has been made
that there should be fitting eel
ebration all over the South. The
suggestion has been we'll received
here and the local patriotic soci-
cites will shortly commence lay
ing plans to that end.
Geperel Lee was the greatest
of all military leaders of his
country, the general without q
peer, and by the strength of his
moral character proved himselfa
leader no less in peace than in
war. The people of the North
give him just praise now, as well
as the people of his own section,
and his position in the annals of
history as one Of the great men of
the world ls unalterably fixed.-
His Is figure that commands
universal admiration and his life
has impressed all who knew of it
with its beauty.
1t is hoped that here. as we'll as
in every other city and hamlet of
the South he loved, his anniver-
sary will be fittingly celebrated
next January.

Meaning of Indian Summer.

Spartanburg cor. the News and
Courier: "According to tradi-
ton Indian summer is a warm.
hazy spell of weather that fol-
lows the first snow. 1t is said
the first settlers farther north
felt that they were safe from In
dian attacks when snow came.
The Indians knowing that the
whites felt secure made their
most savage Incursions after the
first snow had melted and the
weather had turned warmer.
Hence the name Indian summer.
1t is not often that we have a
condition of weather here corre-
spending to that. During this
month there may be a warm spell
after this cold weather, which is
a fair imitation of the Indian
summer"

Sow Some Wheat.
Suggestions as to Fertilizing,
Seeding and Avoiding
Cr,,,f

-
Smut.
Progressive Farmer.
A farmer said a few days ago
that he could not afford to make
wheat when he could buy flour
at SIS barrel. If his wife had
been asked about the matter, she
would have said that it was too
often the case that both the $5
and -four were very scare in their
family. In this Piedmont section,
with our rich clay soils abound
ing In potash and phosphoric acid,
farmer cannot afford to fail to
sow wheat. Suppose, with fair
preparation and only So to So
worth of fertilizer, he makes
twelve to fifteen bushels of wheat
to the acre. The cost Of seed, pre-
paration, harvesting, and thresh-
ing should not exceed $6 an acre.
If only twelve bushels are made
there will be Sc clear. Follow
that with peas. The seed sowing,
moving, and curing would not
cost more than So. One ton of
hay would be worth $15, leaving
$12 profit. The nitrogen in the
pea stubble would be worth So to
S. an acre So a farmer cannot
afford to cut the wheat crop out.
DO NOT MAKE SMUT.
We saw a lot of wheat for sale
few days ago in store. Sup
posing it was for seed, we asked
as to variety and price. The mer-
chant said that it was only fit for
chicken or hog feed, as it was full
of smut and the roller mills would
not grind it. That was a careless
farmer. He could have prevent
ed the smut with little trouble. -
There are several preparations
that are effective. The old plan
was to dissolve pound of blue
stone In barrel half full of wa.
ter. Pour the wheat in and see
that the water is sufficient to
cover 1T. Let it remain twelve to
twenty-fCur hours. Take out and
drain water and save it for next
lot, adding more blue.stone. If
the wheat is to be put in with q
drill, dry it by spreading on a
floor. If sown by hand, roll it IN
Stacked lime. Three pounds Of
blue stone will be sufficient for
ten bushels of wheat. Smut,
wheat is sign that a very care
less farmer raised it.
FERTILIZER FOR WHEAT.
No one can give a general pre-
scription for every farmer and
every field. A doctor might as
we'll give one general prescrip.
ton for all his patients. We saw
a lot of land last week intended
for wheat. The pea-vlnes had
just been moved. On portion
of the lot the vines had fallen
and the mower sided over them.
The farmer said that he would
scatter about fifteen to twenty
bushels of cottonseed to the
acre after breaking well. He
would then harrow or drag and
run in 200 pounds of 8-4 or 10
4 acid potash with the seed. If
the pea stubble did not appear
to furnish nitrogen enough, in
March he would apply fifty to
seventy-five pounds of nitrate of
soda to the acre. If the wheat

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. ls-The

were thirty-fve workmen bound for

in the seething breakers on Duxbury

The life-savers are now hurrying to

up survivors. ~
When the Sea Rover reached here to-
day assistance was promptly sent to
those in distress. but with all dispatch
possible no boat can reach the doomed

it is likely that no boat could live near
enough to the reef to be of service.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Although
the present breach Of diplomatic rela.
tions between France and Venezuela is
technically ehargable against the per.
sonaliiy Of n. Taigny. the French
Charge dAffairs a; Caracas. the real Is.
sue a. II Is understood here Is the attack
by President Castro Of the properties
and franchises Of the French Cable
Company. The President has asserted
that the Cable Company had lent &C.
tive assistance TO the Matos rebellion
Therefore he began proceedings in the
Venezuelan courts against the company
on that score. and also complained that
the company had violated the terms OF
its concession in not laying certain
coast lines OF cable especially in cross.
ing the Island OF San Domingo with
land wires subject TO frequent inter.
ruptions In times OF rebellion on that
island. The courts sustained the
Presidents view and in fact practically
took possession Of the company's Offices
at certain points when the French gov.
ernment interviewed. In the absence Of
the regular minister NJ. Taigny present
ed q written protest 10 the Venezuelan
government. President Castro regard.
ed this note as insulting TO his govern
ment and refused TO have anything
more TO do with NJ. Taigny. But the
French government refused to allow the
dispute to be made a personal one, and
declared NJ Taigny In his present
ment had followed precisely the in
struetions from his foreign Office.
Al this point Russell. the American
minister al Caracas intervened In the
interest of peace and after many pa
tient exchanges, II was believed that he
had finally succeeded. But while he
induced President Castro to withdraw,
n note refusing to do business with NJ.
Taigny. which note the French govern
mcnt regarded as offensive, he could not
prevail upon President Castro to re.
sume official relations with the French
Charge dAffairs. The climax came on
New Years day when the French gov
crnment supposing that a satisfactory
settlement had been reached, received
with the usual honors Of the New Year
day reception, the Venezuelan minister
at Paris. only to learn that President
Castro had refused 10 do likewise for
NJ. Taigny at Caracas. This omission
touched the pride Of the French govern.
ment which felt II had been made the
victim of double dealing and deceit,
which fact the French ambassador in
Washington was not slow to eommuni.
cate to the State Department.
Russell realized his failure to effect
settlement thereby making himself
unpopular In Caracas and then came the
notice from the French government
that diplomatic relations with vene-
mela had been completely severed.
There is hint Of punitive measures on
the part Of the French and the situa-
.tion Is regarded as officially very un'
pleasant, with possibilities Of serious
consequences
