SAFETY ONLY in VIGILANCE.
Care Necessary in the Production
of Good MIX.

Care Necessary in the Production
of Good Milk.
| A few days ago Dairy Inspector Dus-
tan was called upon to apply the tuber-
cnlan test to valuable COW purchased
subject to test, by local dairyman.
! The test showed that the animal was
affected by tuberculosis. The herd
from which she came was then tested
and four out of five were found to be
diseased, and had to be killed, the
state authorities paying one-half of
the appraised value of the cows. This
makes eight cows killed within a short
time owing to the vigilance of the in
! spector.
Few users of milk realize how cheap
a comodity it is compared with other
articles and the amount of labor and
care necessary to put it into their
homes in proper condition. In fact,
but for milk production being a side
issue on some large farms the price
would be much higher than at present.
"The Independent Republican" of
Goshen, N. Y, says in regard to the
matter:
| "The western farmer is selling his
wheat for dollar a bushel, his corn
for sixty cents or more, and his oats
for fifty cents.
THE farmer who devotes his land
to fruit has been able to dispose OF his
crop at topnotch prices, and the
farmer who raises potatoes, onions,
celery or almost any other product Of
the soil is marketing, his crops at
prices far above those that prevailed
a few years ago.
1.-The farmer who produces milk
finds not only that the price of that
article remains virtually unchanged
but he also has discovered to his sor.
row that the various mill feeds which
he considers necessary to keep his
stock in condition to achieve the best
results in production have practically
doubled in price. Feeds that a few
years ago could be bought for SIG OF
$1S a ton now cost $50 or S32 a ton
so while his receipts for the milk ht
sells are no larger than formerly hi,
bills for feed consumed have doubled
Just now he is turning all of hi;
earnings over to his feed dealer anC
actually selling his milk at about the
cost of production-in some cases less
than its cost.

The burning of sugar in the sick

many Of our physicians smile when il

SAD ACCIDENT.
Fourteen-Year-0 Irene Wade Run
Over and Killed by Freight
Train at Greenwood.

Greenwood. February l6.-Irene,
the little 14year-od daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. P. D. Wade, Of this place,
was run over by a freight on the Sou
thern here this morning, and so bad
ly crushed and mangled that she died
about three hours after the terrible
accident.
The little girl, with younger Sis
ter, aged about 8, was on her way to
school from their home, on Lee street,
and were in the act of crossing THE
railroad tracks at the lower end of
Hampton avenue, near Beaudrot s
shoop. A freight train on the Char
lesion and Western Carolina was
coming in as they began crossing, and
the two little girls were watching
that. They were directly behind the
caboose of Southern freight 66, which
had few minutes before come in
from Greenville. This freight sud-
denly moved back, and without warm
ing the little girl was pushed down,
run over and mangled. Her left leg
was practically crushed off above the
knee. Her left. hand was run over
and also crushed off.
The girls screams attracted I'M
mediate attention. DIR. }. B. Owens,
who lives very near. was the first to
reach her. Messrs. Geo. Anderson,
Beaudrct, and Ed. Hunter. were also
quickly at hand, and the little suffer-
er was carried crushed and mangled
to her home, from whence she had on
" a short while before left happy and
content. Her mother was away from
home, attending the Sunday school
convention in Orangeburg. Her faith
er, superintendent Of the Greenwood
Cotton Mills, was in the mill. He was
soon at home. The best surgical skill
was rendered her. but she never sur
vived the terrible shock. She died
about noon.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wade have been liv-
ing here only a few months. They
came from Pelzer, where Mr.. Wade
was superintendent of one Of the mills
there. The Southern train was in
charge Of Conductor FAINT. The TRACE
dy has deeply stirred the community.
Anything Of the sort happening to
child is peculiarly sad and peculiarly
affecting. Parents gaze with fonder
and more slender eyes on their own
children, and their hearts go out in
inexpressible sympathy to the bereav-
I'd father and mother Of little Irene
Wade.
