A Righteous Protest.
Mr.. Fielder showed how after the
letter Of Goodman written in August,
1904. Ullman & Co. got large order,
whereas before that time they had
received nothing. and this called
forth protest frcm the chairman Of
the board, Mr.. II. H. Evans. This
was put in evidence by Mr.. Fielder,
who presented it as q remarkable
document, a righteous protest, set
forth in eight orderly paragraphs
conveying his indignation to the peo-
pie cf South Carolina. -
Protest Of H. H. Evans. Chairman
of the State Board of Directors for
the South Carolina dispensary:
/. Because the legislature of South
Carolina has by resolution required
the directors Of the South Carolina
dispensarv to carry and have only
100000 in stock and liability.
2. Because when the purchases
were made on the 18th day Of Sep
tember, 1904, there were 1900 cases
Of LIQUOR of previous purchase, to
wit: In the months of March, April,
May or June unordered out by the
commissioners ana were and are held
by the sellers of said liquors yet
available to the commissioner Of said
dispensary, subject to said commis-
sioner's order.
3. Because notwithstanding the
previous purchases, and notwithstan l.
ING the commissioner did not make
a requisitioin for the purchase OF
said new liquors which we're bought
by the majority the said board Of d.
reetors on September II, 1904, when
said new goods could Only be handled
as Introductory liquors.
4. Because the dispensary has
debts past due and unpaid.
5. Because taking the law of thu
legislature and all Of the aforesaid
into consideration the purchase made
of new goods on the 18th day Of
September, 1904, was unwarrantec
and without precedent in the past
management Of said dspensary, and
in addition it is in my judgmen
clearly unwise and unsound bushes:

Orchard Work.

A good test of mans Christianity
is to examine his apple barrel from
top to bottom.
A man may be good woodchopper,
but that is no sign that he knows how
to prune trees.
An ak and saw in the hands of al
ignorant man cause more damage to
the fruit crops of this land than all the
birds that are hatched.
Fruit sells best when properly grad
ed. The best will bring a better price
and the lower grades will generally
bring as good price as the entire lot
would If mixed.
For summer pruning of trees the besl
time is from the 18th Of June to the
10th Of July, just when the sap is run
ming freely. When the tree Is In leaf
you can tell better what to cut out.
Some people imagine that all that IL
necessary to have good orchard is to
plant variety of good trees and "let
'em rip" 1t generally takes years to
discover their mistake, bui they finally
discover it.

Feeding Cows on Grass.

Professors Stewart and Atwood, of
the West Virginia Experiment Station,
last year conducted some careful tests
to determine whether it is profitable to
feed milk cows grain on grass. With
out going into the details of these ex-
periments we quote the conclusions as
follows:
This experiment clearly shows that
there was no direct financial gain in
feeding the grain to the cows while at
pasture. 1t Is true that the cows
which received grain were uniformly
in somewhat better flesh than those
that did not receive grain, but as far
as the milk yield was concerned the
increased flow was produced at an ac-
tual loss" Data obtained In similar
experiments at other stations are sum-
married., and from these In comparison
with their own Investigations the au-
thors conclude 'that unless dairy prod
ucts are especially high in price 1t is
not a profitable practice to feed grain
to cows at pasture. 1t is true that more
milk is obtained and the cows hold up
their yield better an1 remain in better
flesh when receiving the grain rations,
but under ordinary circumstances there
is no direct profit from the grain feed
ing, as the increased production usual
ly costs more than it can be sold for

Hogs that Make Meat.

The hog raisers of Kansas station
made test to show what kind of a
hog grows the best meet The weights
of hams in the test were as follows:
Berkshire hams, 231a pounds; Du-
roc-Jersey, 241a pounds; Poland
Chinas, 251s pounds. These hogs in
size were as near the same weight as
possible to get them. The shoulders
Of the Berkshires weighed 211a
pounds; Duroc-Jerseys, 1917 pounds
and Poland-Chinas, 1914 pounds. The
Berkshires have larger shoulders than
the other breeds.
The butcher who saw the hogA
slaughtered thought the Duroc-Jersey
had the most fat on the back; the Po-
land-China next, then the Berkshire,
The Berkshire ham showed more lean
and less fat than the Poland-China.
The butchers considered the breed of
hogs that had the most fat the most
profitable hog, both for the farmer and
the butcher.

UtiIixine waxte timber.

The wood chemistry section Of the
Forestry Bureau has been giving some
attention to the subject of production
of turpentine from yellow pine waste
1t Is stated that for the recovery of
turpentine from waste wood the steam
distillation process is far superior to
destructive dlstillation. making more
uniform crude turpentine, and usually a
higher grade refined product. The
wastage from the yellow pine cut each
year would yield as much turpentine as
the entire present annual output in
this country, with a value of $4,000
600. At the present rate of cutting the
supply Of long-leaf yellow pine In the

twenty years, but that the methods of
exploitation now in use convert only

Leg Weakness.

Leg weakness is due to chicks be-
coming heavy rapidly, SO that the
weight of their body is too much for
their legs. This is not always an alarm
ing condition, for it denotes that the
chicks are growing fast, and If careful
ly guarded and fed properly they will
pull through all right. The cause
arises from heavy feeding and forcing,
which carries the chicks forward so
rapidly as to cause the legs to fail.
Change the food to light diet of veg
etables and feed bone meal In the food.
They should also be well protected
against the dampness, and the difficult
ty will soon pass away. Leg weakness
is nearly always due to rapid growth of
the body or from lack Of uniformity of
heat In brooders, if the chicks are small
enough to be kept in brooder. Crowd
ing and pressing together to keep warm
at night is main cause of little chicks
having leg weakness. No great alarm
need be entertained unless the trouble
continues for too long time, but
change the food and keep the birds
dry,
