DBIRYING ON TIE INCREASE
Southern Farmers Turn to Cow Tor
Sure Profits.
Department of Agriculture Aids In
Pushing Back to Soil
Movement.

Dairying is growing in popularity
among the farmers OF the Southern
States. They are learning that the dairy
COW can do for the cotton grower or
the South what she has done for the
wheat grower In the North, /. e, in
crease the fertility OF the soil in addition
to making most satisfactory returns for
labor and money expended for feed.
The United States Department of Agri-
culture has been giving particular atten-
ton to this question in the Southern
States the past few years and a great
service has been rendered. a great i'm
petus has been given to the dairy move
ment until now there are thousands of
influential dairymen singing the prises
of the dairy cow and demonstrating by
actual experiments that dairying is the
salvation of that section Of the country.
Certain politicians, in order to create
an issue by which they might retain
office, have greatly retarded the develop
ment of the dairy industry in the cotton
growing States by creating the impress
sion there that the interests of the cot
ton grower are opposed to those of the
dairymen. It has Deea brought about in
this way: Cotton-seed oil is used in the
manufacture of some kinds of oleomar-
garine. This has been used TO prejudice
the cotton producer against any and all
kinds of legislation which in this way
regulates or restricts the sale Of oleo-
margarine
A careful estimate coThpiled from gov
eminent reports shows that through the
sale of cotton-seed oil which was used in
the manufacture of oleomargarine last
year, the cotton growers of the South ac-

w. A. Mcfarland, superintendent of
the District of Columbia Water Depart
ment hopes TO complete the laying of
large trunk water mains out Conduit
road and to Congress Heights before the
weather becomes unfit FOR outdoor opera
lions. The laying of the 1S-inch trunk
main in Conduit road, from Elliot place
near the distributing reservoir, to
Weaver terrace, a distance of approx
mately 5000 feet, was begun about the
middle of September a gang OF me-
chanics and labOrers has vigorously
pushed the work since that date, and it
will be completed early next week In
addition TO this trunk line lateral
mains win be laid in Forty-seventh
place. Ashby street, Edmunds street, and
Sherrier place.
The completion of these mains will
serve as an incentive for the develop
ment of much desirable realty property
lying on both sides of the Conduit road.
A considerable amount of this property
is subdivided and, despite the absence of
water facilities. many attractive homes
have been erected. Now that a supply

Columbia, Oct. 29-The State Supreme
Court has ruled upon the mileage ques-
ton, which has been agitated since the
l.OoO-mile interchangeable books were put
on.
John DesPOTtes, a travelling salesman
well known in this city, by a decision OF
the Supreme Court to-day. loses a YER
diet Of $500, which the Circuit Court gave
him on account OF damages alleged 10
have resulted from his election from a
train of the Southern Railway at Rey-
nolds. 5. c. in November 1908, when he
rendered mileage in payment of fare The
decision of the Supreme Court reverses
the circuit judge and settles the mileage
question in this State. In effect, the rail-
roads win out in the matter, since the
DesPOrtes case was largely in the nature
Of a test Of the mileage contract put in
operation when the railroads of South
Carolina put on the l,00-mile mileage
books, which are expected TO be ex-
changed for tickets for each trip.
Sues for Damages.
Mr.. DesPortes sued for $1,000, alleging
that he got on the train at Denmark, ex-
.-eA-t74+-6 III" At4AANtl 80 AAbAio lBt LlCkGN
TO Blackyille. When nearing BlackvnIe,
Mr.. DesPortes decided to so 10 Wiliston,
and remained aboard the train.
When the conductor came TO Mr.. Des-
Portes he rendered his mileage book for
the distance between Blackville and VII
lston, but the conductor, acting under
the contract contained in the mileage
books refused TO accept the coupons, as
the rule of the company required that
the mileage be exchanged for a ticket
wherever practicable. Mr.. DesPOrtes re-
fusing 10 pay the fare TO Williston, the
conductor had him pat off of the train.
He obtained a private conveyance and
went on 10 his destination.
Hallway Enters Appeal.
Alleging that he lost time and was
Inundated by being elected from the
train, Mr.. DesPortes sued for $1,000. The
Circuit Court found for the plaintiff in
the sum OF $500 The railway appealed.
The important point involved was
whether or not the employee of the rail-
road willfully neglected his duty when
he refused 20 accept the mileage coupons
on the train, and finally the question be-
fore the court resolved itself into whether

company.
In brief, the court holds that a specific
contract is made when the mileage IS pur-
chased The holder must exercise reason
able diligence TO get mileage where practi-
cable. II there is a ticket agent at a sta
ton he must get his ticket for passage
II there be none, or If the agent be alb
sent. then the holder may tender the
mileage
Important Decision.
In the DesPOrtes case the court held
substantially that Mr.. DesPortes could
have gotten out at Blackville and pur-
chased his ticket by exchange for the
mileage.
The Circuit Court is, therefore, reversed
and Mr.. DesPortes loses the case. OF
greater Importance is the legal ruling on
the mileage question, which is OF great
interest to travelling men especially.

as designed by Supt Mcfarland. In
other words, the work TO be done this
winter is simply the beginning Of the
project, and will be Of no practical bene-
fit 10 the property through which the
mains pass until the entire scheme is
completed. Water will be turned into
these mains, but only for the purpose of
tests, and no house connections will be
made. 1t IS certain that Congress will.
at its next session, appropriate sufficient
funds TO complete the project. The need
for an adequate water supply in Con-
gress Heights and vicinity has always
been recognized by Supt. Mcfarland,
but the funds of the water department
have been such that any comprehensive
scheme for permanent relief has been
out of the question. and it is gratifying 10
the District officials that Congress has
been made to see the necessitG for the
work.
