Important Decision by Judge Prince.

Judge Geo. e. Prince, of the Circuit
Court, has rendered decision in case
fhich will be of general interest and
considerable Importance. He holds that
the Act of the Legislature which oxompts
Confederate veterans from the payment
of license taxes is unconstitutional.
The case came before him on an appeal
from the mayors court of the city of
Laurens. John Wade Anderson was the
appellant. Anderson is a Confederate
veteran. He undertook to do business
in the city of Laurens without the pay
ment of license taxes, and the mayor
imposed fine, holding that the law OK
empting veterans from the payment of
the license taxes was unconstitutional.
Anderson appealed to the Circuit Court
and Judge Prince has just rendered his
decision.
The decision is very lengthy one,
covering several pages of legal cap paper.
The review of the case, with the law
bearing on the points at issue, are very
carefully and thoroughly reviewed. An

"a chicken is chicken the world


over" is no more true than ga pint is
a pound the world around" For
the man who raises birds to sell as
frying chickens in the market wants
one kind of fowl and the egg man
should have another. Perhaps there
is no chicken which gets himself
ready for the market 30 soon as the
Plymouth Rock, and of that tribe
there are four fine families, the
barred, buff, white and black. For
very heavy fowls the White Brabma
comes first, followed closely by his
dark brother and the Buff Cochin.
But the Brahmas and Cochins do not
get ready for market 30 soon as the
Plymouth Rocks, owing to their
heavy feathering.
For those desiring chicken feath-
ers there is no breed 30 fine as White
Brahmas, which have light, soft,
white feathers.
But for eggs the Leghorn comes
first, and of that tribe there are seve-
raj families. The most common,
perhaps, are the white and brown.
But the Minorca, Java, Polish and
Spanish are fine for laying purposes.
If fowl is desired for beauty
there is perhaps no chicken so beau
tiful al the White Crested Black
Polish. This breed is not common
in the South, and perhaps there is
not one in Oconee county. They are
greenish black except q fine cluster
of long white feathers on the top OF
the head, which makes fine con-
trast with the greenish black feath-
ers of the body. This crest some
times measures thirteen inches across
on the rooster's head. The beauty
of my yard is "Pomroy," fine cook
of this variety.
Then certainly it pays to decide
whether one wants to raise chickens
to sell as fryers, as grown in winter,
or to get eggs from, or for beauty OF
for his own use. Then it is folly not
to select breed accordingly, and
keep the breed up and the scrubs
and kin out.
In American Poultry Journal OF
January there appeared the follow.
ing note from the Morgan Poultry
Farm, of Beloit, Wis: zone pure
bred hen, costing say 81, will in sea.
son lay thirteen eggs in as many
days. These eggs are worth at leas,
81 for Matching. Results One pure
bred hen pays for herself in thirteen
days.
zone mongrel hen, costing say 7t
cents, lays rs eggs in $50 days (tha,
being liberal to the mongrel) They
can't be sold for Matching, 80 they &C
to the market at one cent apiece
The result is: One mongrel hen pays
for herself in $50 days.

aox Senator Tlllman VIII Run Campaign.


Washington, February 22.-"It is
up to the people now," says Senator
Tillman concerning the dispensary
situation, "and there will be hot
time next summer" he declares.
The Senator, who has been i'll for
the past several days, got out of bed
this morning, contrary to advice, and
went to the capitol. He seemed to
be loaded up, not on the product of
the dispensary and the distilleries,
but on the subject of both, for be
actually got up in the Senate during
Il 4ure food discussion and gave a
lecture on good whiskey and bad
whiskey, how to make it and how to
secure it's blessings to ourselves and
our children. But it was in mis-
Office that ne talked very freely aud
with his usual FIRE and vim upon the
South Carolina situation.
"The campaign will be three cor
nered," says he. "There will be
three distinct elements--at least I
propose to make it that way if l can
and 1 think it will have to be that
way. There will be the advocates
of the State dispensary and these, of
course, want the Brice law repealed.
There will be those who want local
option of either county dispensary
or prohibition. Then there will be
those who want third option, either
dispensary, prohibition or high Ii
cense."
"And where do you stand?"
"I stand" he answered severely,
"just where | have always stood,
squarely for the dispensary, for the
State dispensary, but if any county
does not want dispensary, if the
majority of people vote against hav-
ing one, am not in favor of forcing
one on them and never have been
only this, or anybody else who be-
lieves in having things done honestly
and squarely don't want any such
law as the Brice law, which disfran-
chises one-third of the people,"
The Senator was asked how the
issue would be 30 narrowly defined.
"Why every man who offers him.
self for the Legislature ought to be
forced, and he will be forced, TO
come out squarely and declare him
self one way or another and, mind
you, when he does declare himself !
want him to stick to it like man
and like an honest man. If he is a
prohibitionist and wants to down
the dispensary, let him stand up for
his convictions and not be entering
into dirty bargains with high license
men; and vice versa, if he is high
license man. l respect high Ii.
cense man if he is honest and open
and above board, but let him stick
out for high license and not be dick
ering with prohibitionists. l want
some straightforward, honest, open
and above board politics in South
Carolina and l want the people to
decide this matter themselves"

Pira,ina EoleY,s Honey and Tar.

and Tar as throat and lung remedy,

many limitations ire offered for the genu-

Chicken Breeding.


Editors Courier: The human fam
lily learned long ago that to marry
kin and raise children from such
unions would weaken the race. The
Jewish law forbade marrying rela-
tives nearer than first cousins.
Now we learn that in Missouri a
man - violator of law if he marries
a kinswoman. And if he goes out of
the State and marries kinswoman
we are told he can never more make
his home in his native State if his
bride was Missouri girl.
We may see young men in 1ndi-
ana who cannot marry in that State
because they do not meet the physi-
cal requirements set down in the
State laws.
The farmer in Illinois is careful
about the kind of blood he intro
duces into his herd of swine. And
the Western man pays fabulous
price for male to head his herd of
cattle. But how careless we are
about the kind and kin of our hens
and roosters.
Chickens are too much inbred.
The man of the house usually cares
nothing for the poultry of his place,
and usually does nothing for them
except TO "chunk them" when they
get in his way. The women care for
the chickens. A setting of eggs are
put under a hen. They are from
the same pair OF fowls and rooster
is saved "to keep" Then he is
mated to his full sisters and the off
spring is selected from in the same
way Now, in five years, a commit
tee of Philadelphia lawyers, with
King Solomon, if he were living, as
chairman, would not be able to
reckon what kin those chicks are.
No wonder they don't lay, nor "grow
off," nor weigh heavy. Where the
wonder comes in is that they are not
every one deaf, dumb, sterile and
blind and all having two toes and a
cripple foot. Avoid inbreeding, and
never have the rooster and hen near
of kin. Exchange with your neigh
Dor and love him as yourself.
If Indiana decides what kind of
men shall be fathers of the next
generation, why should not our farm
ers say "only the best specimen of
fowls shall abide on my chicken
roosts." Like begets like, at least to
some extent, and the man who al
lows shoddy rooster or dwarf hen
to run at large on his place must suf-
fer at the corDcrib, be disappointed
in the dining room, and excelled in
the egg market.
Again, no farmer thinks of keep
ing as many male hogs or kline as
females, and still he doesn't care how
many roos,ers play in his backyard.
Some people do not even consider
how many roosters there should be
for certain number of hens. Let
the man who raises Brahmas or
Cochins keep one rooster to every
seven hens if kept in an enclosure,
and one rooster to every twelve hens
if running at large. For Leghorns,
Spanish and kindred breeds one
rooster should be retained for every
ten hens if kept enclosed, and one
rooster for eighteen or twenty if run
ming at large. This, poultrymen
agree, is best, and, unless followed,
bad or worse results will come.

A Valuable Prescription.

Here Is a simple and valuable recipe
"a medicinal bath for the nervously
worn and those who cannot sleep O.
nights. 1t is the prescription of an
Old physician. Take of sea salt four
ounces, spirits Of ammonia two ounces,
spirits of camphor two ounces, of pure
alcohol eight ounces and sufficient hot
water to. make a full quart of the
liquid. Dissolve the sea salt in the hot
water and let 1t stand until cool. Pour
Into the alcohol the spirits of ammonia
and camphor. Add the salt water, shake
well and bottle for use With soft
sponge dipped in this mixture wet over
the surface of the whole body. Rub
vigorously until the skin CLOVIS. When
nervous or "blue" or wakeful do not
omit this bath. The relief and invigo-
ration that follow will amply repay the
effort required to prepare it.
