n DAIRY BUSINESS.


II 10 we'll for the land fertility that
there 10 much increased interest In the
dairy business. There 10 more inquiry
for good cows now than ever before.

factors In this development:
First. The cooperation In the man.
ufacture OF butter and cheese. Then
there 10 education. including the tnves-
tigation Of the experiment stations
and the instruction contributed by the
dairy press, dairy schools and dairy
instructors. Third. are the results Of
inventive genius-the separator. the
Babcock test, refrigerating cars. silo
and the milking machine. Fourth, the
importation and spread Of p~urs-bred
dairy cattle.
These four factors are in full swing
to-day and win result In still greater
development. But special advance In
the near future will be along the line
Of moro economy In production.
The man who can produce q pound
Of butter fat at the least cost will be
the public bsnefactor. The dairy
farm may hope to produce the dairy
products At less cost by study and a.

Third. Selection Of the COW.

the tin, poured out the cotton seed

keen edge still on his appetite, Jen-

Negro Killed by Officer.

In attempting last week to arrest
Chester Cobb, a young negro twenty
years of age, Deputy Erwin Prince, of
Abbeville county, was forced to shoot
the negro in self-defense. Mr.. Prince
Is an officer for Magistrate Harkness,
of Abbeville county, and early Sun
day morning he met Cobb in the
road, for whom he had a warrant,
and when he attempted to make the
arrest the negro drew a gun and
fired, the deputy firing at about the
same time. The officers bullet went
to the mark while the bullet from the
gun Of the negro missed and as a
result the negro Is now stone dead
and the officer Is still enjoying good
health.
An inquest was held over the dead
body of the negro Sunday afternoon
and the jury returned verdict that
the negro came to his death at the
hands Of officer Prince and that the
killing was justifiable.

BIG PRO. .1Ts IN LIQUOR. ]
County Dispensaries Doing About
Same Business as Old SYSTEM.

During the quarter ending March
81 the county dispensaries In South
CaroliI sold $97O,964.01 worth Of
whlske.r in twenty-foar counties, of
which oho has since gone dry. On
this business an average profit of 80
per cent was made, the total profit
being $26S,941.9S. This is at the
rate OF over one million dollars a
year profit.
According to the statement re-
Gently prepared by Comptroller Gem
eral Jones the State dispensaly dur
ing it's thirteen years of business
paid into the State Treasury for all
purposes the sum of $1,515, ,107.57.
The proportion Of profit paid to the
counties and towns varied at diff
ferent times, but the total profit of
the State dispensary business, even
when there were dispensaries in
forty-one counties, did not reach one
million dollars per year, or thirteen
million dollars in the thirteen years
that 1t was in operation.
According to the report made by
Dispensary Auditor West to Cover
nor Ansel at the close OF the fiscal
year the total amount Of sales by the
county dispensaries during the nine
tllu al lTdCIlOlt HlOHInS Iuey were Ope-
rated in 1907 was $2,691,663.43, on
which the net profit declared was
1896, ,056.61. The business for full
year or twelve months, runs easily
in excess of three million dollars,
which was the high water mark for
the State dispensary, while the profit
Of the county dispensary system for
twelve months runs in excess of one
million dollars, which the State dis
pensary never did attain, though its
founder predicted it would. Though
there are now dispensaries in only
twenty-four counties the profit from
the courty dispensa"y system is pro-
portionaceiy SO much greater than
from the State dispensary, ana 1t is
distributed between the county and
towns, that as revenue producer
the county dispensary is going to
prove more popular than the old
system. and for that reason, If Tor
no other, it Is more difficult to vote
1t out than 1t was to close the coun-
ty dispensaries under the so-called
Brice act under the State dispensary
regime, when prejudices and antag-
onism to the State dispensary had
something to do with the large pro-
hibition vote cast in several counties
of the State.

The human brain Is the most mar

space in proportion to its capabili-
ties than any machine it ever in
vented.
1t sends a special nerve to every
ultimate fiber of some 500 muscles.
to many thousand branching twigs
of arteries, to every pinhead area of
the numerous glands which keep the
machine properly oiled, heated or
cooled; to some sixteen square feet

of its castle, with which complete
ness that the point of a pin cannot
find an area unguarded.
1t possesses special quarters for
the reception and translation of a
constant stream of vibration that re
the product Of all things movable or
still in the outer world. On the ret
ina Of every open eye is a picture of
the outer view, focused imprint Of
every ray Of light and color; and in
the visual chamber of the mental pal
ace stands vibrascope, a magic Ian
tern, that receives the retina picture
in its billion speeding series of light
waves and throws upon them It's r,en-
tai screen as living moving picture

In the chamber Of sound is a vi
braphone. over whose active wires
passes every wave of sound, from the
dripping Of the dew to the orchestral
fortissimo, from the raucous screech
of the locomotive to the signing Of
the wind through the meadow grass.
In the chambers set apart for scent
and taste and touch are the secret
service guards to report upon the air
and food which gives sustenance to
the palace and upon the solid quail

What About q Cook Stove &?

Now that summer time and "dog
days" are just ahead, everybody who
summers" at home, is considering
how to simplify things and get the
most comfort out of an uncomfortable
situation
We interview the ice man, order
thin clothes, plan to ease up here and
relax there, but more than likely for
get the one most important item in
the whole hOt-weather scheme
some means of doing the family
cooking without the insufferable
heat of coal fire in the kitchen.
Every one with experience knows
now tresome 1t is to stay in a stuffy
room to prepare a meal, let alone
ahe doing of big baking. But every
one doesn't know how very easy it
as to change hot kitchen to a cool
one, and do better cooking at the
same time. Just add to your list of
summer conveniences a New Perfec-
tion Wick Blue Flame Oil Cook
Stove and you've done all that any
one can do to lessen hot weather dis
comfort.
Wouldn't it be fine of a summer
morning to step in the kitchen, nut
on the Kettle, broil the steak, bake
The mullins, filter the coffee and give
the breakfast call in one-fourth the
dime you'd take to do it all on a coal
stove?
And wouldn't 1t be fine to be as
cool when the breakfast was pre-
E7ared as when you first entered the
iEitchen?
People. who have tried 1t say that
Uhe New Perfection Oil Stove actually
does everything in the line Of cook
Ang and domestic service without
oVerheetine the room or the Worker.
Undoubtedly the reason is to be
found In the blue flame principle on
which the stove works.
a cyltpd. al cEinney concentrates
fAe heat at he stove top and In this
way prevents surface radiation as in
a coal or wood stove.
1t Is easy to see that this lessons
very much the matter OF personal
discomfort in summer housekeeping.
SO don't forget the New Perfection
OH Stove In your summer plans and
you VIII have a comfortable kitchen
and the best cook stove in the world.
