only slightly more than half as much
as that of the common dairy ration
now fed in this State:
8. Our good results in the exolu-
sive feeding of cotton seed meal and
corn silage as dairy ration are un-
doubtedly largely attributable to the
fact that the corn silage was made
from we'll matured corn rich in grair,
making it especially rich in oarbo-
hydrates. Unless silage is especially
rich in grain, ration consisting en-.
tirely of corn silsge and cotton seed
meal will lack in non- heterogeneous
matter.
9. With cotton seed meal furnish
ing an unusually cheap protein sup
ply, and with the great yields of
corn possible in this State, we feel
confident that milk can be produced
as cheaply, if not more oheaply, in
South Carolina than in any other
portion of the world.

Wireless Telegraphy Established.

London, August S.--Wireless telegra-
ply is at last an established faot, both
scientifically and commercially.
A director Of the Amalgamated Radio.
Telegraphy Company told an Express
representative yesterday that his con. !,
pany is ready to take orders for the in
stallation of wireless telephony system
to cover q distance up to twenty-five
miles, over fairly fat land or over water.
"Last Monday" he said, "I spoke in
our laboratory at Berlin to temporary
laboratory which we have erected some
seven miles away from that city, and
that was not under the best conditions,
because the aerial Tor wire) at the tenn
porary station was suspended between
two factory shafts instead OF tue usual
masts.
From experiments which we have
been conducting in Berlin, we ere able
to guarantee perfect communication by
wireless telephony over twenty-five miles
of not too hilly country.
"The inventor of the continuous un..
damped wave, by which means only is
wireless telephony made possible, was
M. Valdemar Poulsen, noted Danish
electrical engineer. About eight months
ago we bought NJ. Poulsen's invention,
together with all his plant and expert
mental stations, and we have secured
patents for the whole world with the
exception of the United States.

ut Oxford and Cambridge into wireless
telephony stations on the Fouisen sys.

which will probably be in six weeks
time, we shall begin to experiment there.
am confident that we shall be success
full in establishing rireless telephonio
communication ov,r the sixty miles
which separate the two university towns,
and do not hesitate - cypress my con-
viction that in few years. time we shall
be able to speak across the Atlantic"

How Grant Met Criticism.

Among the most interesting remi.
nesoences in Gen. Lew Wallace's Auto
biography, few are of deeper interest
than the following story concerning Gen.
Grant:
cat City Point, in 1854, was Gen.
Grants guest by special invitation, and
witnessed q scene of rare interest.
'It was announced at supper that the
general would receive q delegation OF
citizens from Philadelphia, coming with
an unknown purpose.
I" We must be there said Dowers, the
assistant adjutant general, tand you must
watch Grant when it comes time for him
to reply. If he's little stumped, and
wants moment to think, he always gets
1t by striking matches, pretending lie
can't get one to burn. Sometimes he'll
spoil o bowlful; but when he has his
idea clear, the trouble is over"
"The meeting took place in the little
box the general called his Office. We
were all there; so was the delegation.
The spokesman took the floor and de-
livered speech.
"'Gen. Grant, we represent the bust
ness men of Philadelphia and have been
charged to tell you frankly that you
must do something decisive Immediately
In the South and along the Mississippi
everybody is active. Sherman is thun.
dering away in the heart of the South.
You alone are doing nothing. We have
come to implore you to wake up
Grant turned to the mantel, on which
there was bowlful of matches and a
box OF cigars. Taking fresh oigar, he
struck matcn after match without avail ;
1t looked as if the supply would all 90.
Minutes passed; at last he struck fire.
Gentlemen the general said, you
urge me to move, and have been at pains
to come and tell mo that Sherman will
shortly shut me out of pablo attention
If l don't hurry and head him off. WeIp
-he stopped and whitfield moment
Sherman is acting by order, and I am
waiting on him. Just as soon as hear
that he Is on the sea coast, then, the
Mississippi river being secured for our
boats, will take Richmond. We're TO
move now Lee would evacuate Rich
mond, taking his army somewhere South,
and 1 would have to follow him to keep
him from jumping on Sherman. That
would be very inconvenient to me, as it
would compel me to haul supplies in
wagons over unknown dirt roads to an
unknown distance. hope, gentlemen,
you will report to your constituents how
much / am obliged to Gen. Lee for stay
ing where he is, and be careful, please,
to tell them that jealousy between Gen.
Sherman and mo is impossible. Please
smoke with NO."

Best Ration for Cows.

The agricultural experiment sta
ton at Clemson College has just
completed quite an important series
of tests looking to the disclosure OF
what would seem to be the best
ration for COWS. The tests covered
a period of five months, and the con-
clusions are summarized in Bulletin
No. 131 as follows:
l. Good cotton seed meal, when
fed in conjunction with good corn
silage, may be fed to the extent OF
from five to six pounds per COW
daily without affecting the health OF
the animals. Indeed, such ration
appears to keep COWS in an unusually
good state of health.
2. A ration consisting of cotton
seed meal and good corn silage is
consumed by COWS with great relish,
which is in no way lessened when
the feeding of such ration is con.
tinued for period of five months.
Z 8. No bad effects ever noticeable
from the practice of feeding cotton
seed meal and corn silage separately,
On the contrary, such a practice ap-
pears to have distinct advantages
over the common practice of mixing
the meal with the roughness. Our
results, therefore, tend to disprove
the prevailing belief that heavy con-
centrates like cotton seed meal will
act detrimentally on the health of
COWS when fed unmixed with more
bulky feeds.
Cows fed exclusively on cotton
seed meal and corn silage for a
period of five months exhibited no
craving for dry roughage, but always
preferred silage to good hay.
s. According to the herd records,
the COWS yielded more milk and but
ter.fat during the experiment than
during any corresponding period in
previous years.
6. Cotton seed meal and rich,
well matured corn silage constitute
an excellent ration for COWS yielding
from twenty to thirty pounds OF
milk daily.
Z. Cotton seed meal and corn
silage form by far the cheapest
dairy feeds available to our dairy
men. The cost Of such a ration is

AT the second annual meeting of
the South Carolina division of the
Farmers Union, held at Greenwood
July 25-27, about $50 members were
present in executive session.
These men of the farms wore upon
their countenances determined
look that means much" They feel
confident of their ability to maintain
the position they have taken in man
aging their own affairs in their own
way, and their success verifies this
opinion.
National President 9. s. Barrett,
OF Atwater, Ca, addressed the meet
ing at 8 O'Clock for period of two
hours. Among other things, he said
the union was now more harmonious
than any other farmers organization
had ever been in the South before.
The average growth of the union is
now over 5000 members a day.
Some days it reaches 5000 and 5000
new members. The enrolled men,
bership now is over one and a half
million, .., .
None of the State organizations
have any debts and there is more or
less money in the treasury of every
State organization. The national
treasurer has considerable money to
his credit.
One of the most important things
in connection with the Farmers
Union is the tale now current that
the organization is affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor.
Much has been said about this mat.
Iep of affiliation with the general
federation and the attitude of many
good and conservative men on the
outside has been undecided towards
the organization, pending state
ment of it's position. President Bar
rett was asked this question "Js the
Farmers Educational and Co-opera-
tive Union affiliated with the Ameri.
can Federation of Labor?" The
answer was "No," and in his ad-
dress to the meeting here he eau
toned the members to ego slow
about affiliating with any organiza-
tion." He further said. "Why
should we affiliate when the Farmers
Union is now strong enough and
powerful enough to accomplish any
thing that it wants to that is Just
and right2"
The second session of the Farmers
Union opened at 8 o'clock p. m.
Pres. 0. 2. Goodwin called the
meeting to order and introduced
Hon. G. M. Davis, of Atlanta, Ca,
State organizer of the Georgia divi-
Z fsion. Mr.. Davis was the sole speaker
Aof the evening and spoke for about
two hours.S He made good; sound,

that of any other. He spoke of the
harmonious working of the Georgis
union and told of the magnificent
appropriation by the State of Geor.
.gia for agricultural district schools
and nrged that South Carolina take
steps along this same line. He said
"You know everybody Gays the
farmer won't stick, but the farmers
of Georgia who won't stick 70 the
union get stuck" In regard to the
high price Of cotton, he said that
25.oent cotton would ruin the farm
ing interests of the South. 1t would
cause the mill people to quit spin
ming and all 90 to producing cotton.
Speaking of politics and the much
mooted question of politics running
the organization or any organization
that allows politics, Mr.. Davis said !:
"That as the national government
has instituted strict quarantine
against csttle ticks, 30 the Farmers
Union had instituted strict quaran-
tine against politics" At the close
OF his speech the evening meeting
closed.
The first meeting On the second
day was called to order at 9 O'Clock.
The court house was we'll filed.
Hon. T. T. Wakefield, of Ander-
son, president of the Anderson
county union and vice president of
the State division, introduced the
following resolution as the work of
the committee on the operation in
cotton baling, handling and market
ink. The resolution is as follows:
eve favor system of uniform
baling of cotton into packages of "a
inches wide by 36 inches long; that
the cotton be covered neatly and
securely with >any servicable wrap
ping, our preference being given to
cotton wrapper; that we approve
the cotton union system of market
ing cotton"
At II a. NJ, National President
G. 8. Barrett made an address to the
general public in the court house.
He stated, among other things, that
he had talked Farmers Union SC
much that he had about forgotten
everything else he ever knew. He
said the uers' Unions of the
South now and operate 1000
warehouses OF their own. eve do
not own or operate any stores," he
said. The man who doesn't stick
himself is the one Sho is always say
ing the other fellow won't stick. The
old farmer has gotten enough of par
tisan politics. The Farmers Union
stands for more improvement in
rural schools. Only one of the whole
number of the present national off.
cials of the Farmers Union has ever
held any political Office or been in
politics. The following officers were
elected at an executive session in the
President, o. P. Goodwin,9 Lau-
rens.
Vice president, II. II. Wakefield,
Secretary-treasurer, B. F. Earle,
Chaplain, A. B. Black, Greenville.
A State organizer is to be elected
by the executive committee at a
later date. Quite number of dele.
gates have expressed their desire for
the Georgia organizer, Mr.. Davis,
and it is probable that an effort will
be made to secure his services in this
State. The other officers are: H. T.
Campbell, doorkeeper; s. w. Wide
man, conductor; j. Wade Dickson
and w. E. Hopkins, sergeants- at
arms; executive committeeman, j.
