PROFIT. IN TIE MILK BUSINESS
No. 4.

In common with a wide circle of Bee subscribers, who are milk pro- ducers. We read with interest the statements of Neighbors Ioveil and Fairchild, in The Bee issues of May their sentiments. In the many other things" with which Brother Lowell closes his statement, it seems to me are found some of the great
 drawbacks to making milk success fully. To begin with, if Farmer Lowell hires a mechanic, be he a blacksmith, mason, painter, carpent- CT, paper-hanger or what not, he will expect to pay him from soc to 5Oc all hour for his time, and this artisan has invested in his business a few months, or at most two or three years in learning his trade: any where from $5 to $100, perhaps, in tools with which to do the work. Mir Lowell put his time in as dairyman at 15c an hour; 1 venture to say that
 Mir Lowell served his time in years instead of months in learning how to handle herd of cows, to reach the high standard he has attained as a milk producer, with a cash invest ment running we'll up into the thousands. It goes without saying that to make miIk would be greatly simplifled if COW was an automatic machine, SC that once having good herd in your stables, one could be sure that it would always do as well as when at its best, Trouble and plenty of it awaits the farmer who does know his cows as individuals;
 indiscriminate feeding, not noting the capacity Of each COW, soon re- suits in cows ruined with garget or the numerous other ills that befall stall fed COWS. Plenty of good herds haze been partially ruiued by con tagious abortion and rlany d farmer has bought high priced, big milkers,

TOWN TOPICS. THE MILK QUESTION. R. c. Mitchell's Experience.

MT Editor: I am glad to see the milk question agitated in your paper
 It is certainly hopeful sign when
 the farmers begin to sit up and take
 notice. The milk business seems to
 be somewhat out of balance at the present time, owing to the fact that price of milk has not advanced in proportion to the price of feeds, help, provisions and other operating ex- penses. l am inclined to believe that | if the farmers were better organized, either through the orange or milk producers associations, great benefits could be derived from an exchange of opinions. One of the great draw back with many dairies is the num- Der of boarders in it. It is safe to say there are hundreds of cows in this state that do not produce any more than enough mix to pay for their feed. No dairyman can afford to keep such cows. You want the milk scales to find them. I will give the average cost of grain and amount received per COW for the years 1907- I190S. In addition to the grain the cows were fed ensilage mornings, hay at noon and dry stalks, cut, at might. In 1907: cost of grain $z9.52; received $127.71. In 1908: cost of grain $37.71, received s12S.35. l Twill not attempt to say what proror- tion of the cost of help should be charged to the dairy as the help that cares for the dairy grows tobacco and potatoes for money crops and kthere are some days when I take hold Epretty well myself. Every dairyman E should have plenty of oats and peas land sweet corn to feed green; it is better than grain to feed during the late summer and early fall. But for flour acres of sweet com I would have kbeen put out of business last fall. FTry small piece of alfalfa. It Will grow all right here if you get the conditions right. I started one acre last August. It looks fine now. l ! will gladly tell any one interested ! Enow I did the trick. If it can be grown sncces ;fu''y it will redu,e the cost of producing milk. From exist ing conditions it would seem almost certain that our f;lrmels must charge their methods. They must grow more crops, buy less feed,and raise more stock and the profit will be greater. I cannot make it appear as the proper time to be discouraged. Farms are increasing in value and everything produced on the farm, with the eX- 'ception of milk, brings a good price. The conclusion of the matter is that to produce milk at profit you must have the best of cows, the best ot care and good judgment in feeding.

 There is art ir making bread,

MARTINA BOLONIA
 SHOOTS HIMSELF
SUFFERING FROM PECULIAR IN SANITY, TUSCALOOSA RESTAU- RANT KEEPER MAKES ATTEMPT ON LIFE.

Tuscaloosa, February 3.-(Special 1.-The well known restaurant man, Martinia Bolonia, in a fit of insanity yesterday afternoon shot himself in the head and now lies in a very precarious condition at the Tuscaloosa infirmary. Martinia was apparently in good health and spirits yesterday morning. but was seized with an insane deluson toward the middle of the day, fancying that officers were on his track to put him in prison.
 He had that morning sold some meat to a man in the city and this was the of fense for which he thought he was being pursued. The man was sent for and attempted to pacify the unfortunate man. and did so temporarily. Mayor Faulk stayed with him some time in an effort to get his mind in a normal condition However, after reaching his home he became worse under the stress of his fear and got a pistol, begging his moth er-in-law to shoot him. Under a pre- text the pistol was taken away from him and he was quieted, though only lit tie later to grow worse. when he again found the pistol and shot himself in the head
 The ball went in under the right jaw and passed upward through the front part of the brain. An operation was performed as soon as he reached the in- firmary, but his condition still remains very grave. Martina Is well known citizen of this place. having lived here for 15 or 20 years, and owns some prop erty here. He came here from his home in southern Italy.

Montgomery, February 13.-(Special.)- the flood of appointments that have come recently from the office of the governor, there is yet talk of the race Tor governor at the next primaries, in relation To the attitude that former Chief Justice 5. D. Weakley will occupy to it. There are astute politicians who think that his re- fusal of the chief justiceship is certain indication that he will run for the high est office, and there are others, equally as astute, who see in it determination to seek the head of the court by the votes of the people only.
 Into this has come another interesting element. It has been understood that Judge J. R. Dowdell now chief justice, had no intention to make the race for another term as associate justice. But the report is current that he will seek election as chief justice two years hence, even though he once had an idea of re- tirng, The judge himself has had noth- ing to say about it to the public, but a number of friends have been looking into the situation and seem to be certain in the statement that ne Will run 1oi lhc office the governor has seen fit to honor him with by appointment.
 Many appear to see complications in this situation. If it is the intention of Judge Weakley to make the race for the head of the court the governor has put a tenacious obstacle in his way in the event of Judge Dowdell aspiring for the full term. It is no fiattery to say that Judge Dowdell is very strong and com mapds a large following. Since the re- tirement of Judge Tyson as chief jus tice and from the race for reelection it has been conceded that Judge Weakley can get the place easily if he makes the effort. Just how much more difficult the entry of Judge Dowdell would make is A matter of conjecture.

 All of which lends color to the belief that Judge Weakley, who is regarded
