of Good MANAGEMENT.

VI SOO0 management
So far as possible everything should
be put in good condition for the win
ter. The COWS should be put In the
stable nights. where they can be better
fed and cared for The stable should
be put in the best condition for use.
both for the comfort Of the COWS or
other animals and convenience in car
ing for them. Have good floors and
stalls and plenty Of light. Put in more
windows when needed and there is
room. Make the stable comfortably
warm. but have sufficient means for
ventilation. so that the air shall not be
close or bad smelling.
The health of the animals should a.
ways be carefully looked after. 4
yearly application Of whitewash will
add to the good looks Of the stable and
is considered a sanitary measure.
There should always be an endeavor
to have everything as convenient as
possible for those having the care OF
the stock, as that means much during
the long months Of winter in time and
labor.
Care of Cows.
Prices for milk, cream and butter
are high, very high for the time OF
the year, and may 60 higher and con-
tinue high through the winter This
prospect should encourage farmers to
do the best possible for their COWS to
keep up good flow Of milk. Keeping
the COWS in the stable on cool nights
and feeding to the most profitable
point or limit should be practiced-
Do not undertake to winter more
stock than can be well kept, as there
is no profit in this. Use plenty OF bed
ding, so that the cows may be kept
clean. Feed the best combination OF
grains, market cost considered, for the
production Of milk along with the well
cured corn fodder, silage and good
hay, advises American Cultvator. Reg
ularity In all Of the work Is also a
necessary condition for the best sue
cess.
Implements and Machines.
With the great scarcity Of help the
farmer finds it necessary to supply the
deficiency so far as possible by the
use Of the best implements and ma
chimes. It costs good deal on the
average sized farm to get. supplied
with these, and they should be made
the best use Of and then well cleaned
and housed. S

SUICIDE IN SUMTER.
Young Married Man Shot Himseif
With Shotgun.

SUMTER, May 1.-Claude Simpson. a
Young white man, 25 years old, shot
himself through the heart about lo
o'clock last night with the intention OF
killing himself.
He was section;master of the North
western railroad. A single barrelled
breach loading gun was used.
According to the statement made by
Mrs. Simpson, wife of the deceased,
Simpson had been drinking all day and
he had said number of times that ne
was going to shoot himself.
He got his gun and asked her to go
out to the pump with him to get some
water and she went. He threw his
arms around her and kissed her and
again told her how much he loved her,
saying again he was going to shoot his
heart out. She became alarmed at his
evident determination and fearing that
he might also shoot her, she went into
the piazza. When she got on the piazza,
she heard the gun fire. Looking around,
she saw her husband reloading his gun,
and in a second or two there was
another report. She ran out to him
and found that he had shot himself.
The wound inflicted was directly over
the heart and death was instantaneous:
There was no reason why he should kill
himself so far as is known.

Letter to A. N. Brabham, Bambers, S. c.

Dear Sir: Here's tale with three or
four tails to it.
Professor Irvine has an Academy,
Mercersburg, Penn. He paints the floors
in summer vacation. It used to take 80
gallons of paint. There were two paint
stores there, and he used to buy Zone
year of one, next year Of the other) 80
gallons year after year.
Now he paints Devoe; 60 gallons; and
the difference is a saving Of $3.50 a year.
H. c.. Fallon was one of those dealers,
good man; but he wouldn't take-up
Devoe; so we turned to the other, J. A.
Boyd. But Fallon has found Unnecessary
to get a good paint to compete with
Devoe. He got one of the eight honest
paints. He has a big hardware store
and is doing an excellent hardware bust
ness; but Boyd, of course, has the run
on paint-he's a little hardware man.
We don't care how little or big man
is, if he wants good paint and is active
and sound.
Yours truly
10 F. w. DEVOE & CO.,
New York.

In conversation with one Of the
most prominent Democrats in this
county a few days ago he expressed
the opinion that magistrates and
other judicial officers should not be
required to run in the primary, be-
cause it was very hard for a justice
to render an opinion against a good
friend and political supporter. No
matter how honest a man may be, his
judgment is likely to be warped on
such an occasion, and for this reason,
.if for no other, we trust that all
judicial officers in this county will be
kept out Of the primary, and appoint
ed by the governor, as the law re-
quires. In fact, putting these offices
in the primary is usurping the pre-
rogatiye of the governor and our
legislative delegation, and we trust a
change will be made this year. We
feel sure it will give greater salts
faction to all concerned. No matter
what sort of man is recommended by
the primary, the delegation must
endorse him and the governor ap-
point. AS it is now they are held res
ponsible and yet have no voice in the
selection of magistrates.

A Windbreak.

A wtndbreak consists Of one or TWO
rows Of trees planted primarily for
the purpose Of checking the force OF
the wind. The term shelter belt Is
applied to larger groups Of trees which
form forest conditions and serve q
protective purpose. Any species which
is ADAPTED to the region may be used
for windbreaks. Where evergreens
will succeed, however, they are more
desirable, since they afford better win
ter protection than deciduous trees. a
windbreak consisting Of single row
should be composed Of densely grow
ing species, with branches close to the
ground.

The Brooklyn Improvement So
ciety will meet this evening in the
Lyceum.
Chief Snagg said to-day he had
not yet decided where he would place
ex-Captain Dunn of the Brooklyn
house. He stated that indications
pointed toward the Leavenworth
street house but he would not decide
definitely until this evening.
A big delegation from Brooklyn
is prepared to go to Bristol to-mor-
row evening to root for the Brook
lyn polo team in the game with the
All Stars of New Britain. 1t is the
first of series of game for a purse
of 500 and the amateur champion
ship of the state. Manager Dunphy
says that all will have plenty of time
to come home from Bristol by trolley
after the game.
In view Of what Judge Burpee
said In the city court this morning
men in Brooklyn who have been max
ing life unpleasant for patrolmen will
have to change their tactics. More
prisoners offer resistance to an officer
in this section than in any other
part of the city. They seem to have
been let off lightly in the past but
it now appears as though a change
has come-a good change for the
partolmen.
II you have to suffer from any
of the ills that flesh is heir to, 1t
