TUESDAY EVENING, JAN. %. II.

WHILE the many admirers Of Senator
Tillman's bold course and honesty in
representiog the southern section Of this
country see nothing in the South Caro-
altman to warrant q revision Of the
opinion that be is the right man 10 the
right place, they are aware Of the fact
that he urges no claims to infallibi'ity
end Is therefore liable 10 mistakes as
other MORALS. The standpoint be took
yesterday in answering Senator Spooners
unwarranted attack upon him few days
ego was proper, snd while his language
WAS bold and defiant, it was doubt
less iustifable. Had he stopped at
ibis point hoSeyer, and allowed the
smoke from his columbiads 20 have
settled over his assailant, all would
have been well, but, unfortunately,
be essayed another role for which nature
seems not 10 have intended him. Car
toouists are born, not manufactured,
and when he likened Senators to burnt
cork artists he struck a frost, and later
the doors were closed in order that the
world might not witne" unfortunate
scenes In such an august body as tho
United States Senate. Later Senstor
TilIman, honest man as he ia, apoiogized
for his figures of speech. II was sad, to
asy the least. But the illustrious South
Carolina Senator is not the only truly
great man who has made similar mis-
lakes. Macaalay in his "1ite of Fred
erick the Great gives many of the de-
details Of tho intimacy which at one
time existed bewteen the Prussiau mon
arch and Voltaire. Frederick was en-
dowed with all the powers of a Statesman
and was natural-born leader ofmep. The
Ffenchmau was equally as great 10 his
line "a a poet aud wit But, strange TO
cay. both imagined their weak points
their Gibraltar Frederick believed he
had been favored By the Musfs and was
so Inspired poet. Voltsire, on the other
haad, dreamed that he possessed the
ability Necessary to ststecraft and that
he could handle the ribbons of an en-
pife. These two great men finally part
C ! company dsgusted with each others
weaknesses. But long before either
Frederick or Voltaire flouIished Ksop,
a Greek sage, 6rote fable TO Illustrate
the abaurdily Of attempting TO I'LL parts
10 life for which nature has not intend
cd us. A wolfhsd captured q goat, and
was about to devcur the capricorn when
ihe latter requested the lupus to play
pire in order that IFS victim might dance
and be merry before being devouNd.
The wolf consented, and while IL was
making ludicrcus attempts to extract
music from the pipe the attention OF
hunters vas attracted and they appeared
On the scene. 10 the ptnic which fol-
loved the goat escaped. The volt in
its flight is represented "a saying, {"

The moral has been applicable in sll ages.

The new enterprise. (Madison, Fla.) 1901-1908, 1907-09-05

With this issue the New En-
terprise enters upon its seventh
year Of existence. While we
have no great kick coming be-
cause of hard times in the past
we have a feeling that the year
just opening before us is to
prove the very best and most
prosperous of our newspaper
life. The people of Madison
and Madison county have been
good to US duridg the six years
in which we have served them
but we expect them to be better
because we confidently believe
that with new industries and
consequent increased prosperity
they will be better enabled to
show their appreciation OF the
efforts which we shall at all
times pat forth in their behalf.
We feel that we can say with
out egotism that the New En-
terprise has been a decided fac
tor in the progress and prosperi-
ty OF Madison town and county
since its first issue six years
ago to-day, and we are de-
termined that in the years to
come it shall prove of even
greater benefit to our people
than it has been in the past. To
make us strong we need your
cooperation and sympathy.
The paper is at all times as
good as the people make it.
Your united support will insure
you a paper second to none in
all the State.

to be very profitable TO the
farmers. The tobacco is IN good
demand. Leon county's acreage
this year was doubled and pros,
poets point to still larger
production next season. Over
200 acres are under shade,
which will produce from 600 to
900 pounds to the acre. Farm
ers look for prices from 60 to 50
cents and even 300. The crop
in Gadsden, Jackson and Madi-
son counties is also heavy, and
the farmers are in very pros
porous condition. T ob a c c o
lands have risen in value, sell
ing at anywhere from $25 to
500 an acre"

William Jennings Bryan has
written to a close personal and
political friend to the effect
that he will not seek the demo-

leaders Of the party are oppos
ed to him. If the people really
want you for the standard bear

nominee, the leaders to the
contrary notwithstanding

THE DAIRY COW.
State Dairy Commissioner, e. X.
Slater Discusses Barns, Feed, Care !,
and other Important Subjects.

much of the good educational
matter contained in bulletins issued
by experimental stations is wasted on
the casual reader because he feels
that it is impossible for him to work
out the same results under the con-
ditions which confront him. We have
often heard the statement made by
farmers that they can't get good re-
suits from their cows because they
haven't the facilities for caring for
them, and that the results given out
by the experimental station are of no
benefit to them because these results
were not obtained under farm con-
ditions.
snow this is trae to certain ex =
tent, but whose fault is it? What has
the experiment station to offer in the
way of caring for the cow that can
be offered by the farm? The cow can
only be made comfortable and be fed
the right kind of rations. Supposing
her barn happens to have cement
floor instead of plank floor or even
Mother Earth? II it is dry and warm
and well bedded do you suppose for
minute that the old cow cares? We
don't. And il she happens to be in q
straw shed instead of a brick barn do
you suppose she is going worry about
that providing she is warm and COM
Portable? Not bit of it.
"Then there is the question of feed.
When the bulletin from the expert
mental station begins to discuss ball
anced rations, oil meal, ensilage,
gluten meal, pea meal etc., the read
or becomes frightened and discourag-
ed. While study of these matters is
good for him, if he so chooses he may
take the common grains produced on
the farm and get very satisfactory re-
suits. Prof. Hacker, of the Minnesota
station, has demonstrated by natural
tests that the common cow will pro-
duce 100 pounds more butter year
on the farm grown grains when pro-
perly cared for, than she is in the
habit Of doing on the average farm.
A ration of ground corn, oats and
bafIeysin equal parts, together with a
