arated and kept in a cool place and
delivered to the creamery or shipped
once or twice week with no appra-
ciable increased amount Of labor re-
quired. From the sale of cream
from few cows on the farm the
average farmer should be able to get
In cash enough to practically meet
every need Of the farm and family
for current expenses. Skim milk or
clabber Is most excellent poultry
feed, as every woman in the South
knows, and where the skim milk IS
utilized in feeding poultry the sales
from butter fat may be supplemented
considerably by sales of poultry and
eggs. In many cases throughout tho
South during the spring Of 1921
farmers wives with two or rnree or
four extra cows and the flock Of
chickens little better ctEed for were
able to finance the farm and meet
the situation that would have other
wise been most unfortunate.

Products Which Arc Being Standard
lied by Homo Demonstration
Women.

one or the most significant pieces
Of marketing work being done in
South Carolina is tho large sale Of
4.H butter, which product is being
sold through the South Carolina
Home Producers Association. Most
Of this butter is being handled by the
Palace Market, Taylor street, Colum-
bia, S.! G. 1t is shipped in from the
different counties and inspected be-
fore 1t is put on the market. 1t is
made by the Home Demonstration
Club women, who have taken dairy
work under the supervision Of the
home demonstration dairy specialist.
I'm the beginning only very small
shipments were made. These ship
ments rapidly became larger as the
demand became greater, until last
week, when shipments totalled 1873
pounds. One customer said that
since she had been buying 4-H but
ter she could not keep any in the
house. She laughed and remarked,
1T is too good to keep
The Home Demonstration Depart
ment is trying to develop every pos
sible home enterprise which will fur
nish paying products to market. In
commenting on this feature of our
work, o. B. Martin, Of the Washing
ton Department, recently said: "We
are just beginning to develop the re-
sources Of the farms and farmsteads.
When the agents, the colleges and
the department focus their attention
on standardizing the products which
may be sold in winter as we'll as in
summer, the club markets Of the
State will be busy throughout the
year, I am confident that there Is
much yet to do in standardizing the
packing vegetables, fruits, meats and
many other things which our people
buy on the markets within the State"

,s TO CASH INCOME FARMING.
Dairy Cows, Poultry and Pigs viii
Turn tho Trick.
(ClemSOn Bulletin,)


1t Is a fact that should lend much
encouragement to the people of this
section in the matter of the develop
nlent Of the dairy industry that the
largest vacuum in the matter Of but
ter supply in this country, and pro-
badly in the world, Is here in the
southeastern part Of the United
Btates. Practically the same thing
may be said with reference 10 the
supplies Of poultry and eggs, cheese,
pork products, and beef. The enor-
, nous demand in the South for these
products at the present time is be-
Ing filled from the northwest princi-
pally, and the butter and cheese and
poultry products, pork, beef, etc.,
which are now being shipped into
the South from other sections of the
country are simply grain, grass and
forage that have been converted into
the form Of butter, poultry products,
and beef upon the farms Of farmers
In States that are much more pros
porous than we are.
The most urgent present feed Of
Southern agriculture is for a system
Of farming tina. will give the farmer
a cash income from month to month
throughput the year, thus enabling
him to proceed upon a cash basis,
getting away entirely from the neces-
sity Of going into debt for supplies
upon which to go while making the
crop. The keeping Of few COWS on
every farm and The sale Of sour
cream to the creamery, the feeding
OF skim milk to the farm poultry
flocks and to well-bred brood sows
and pigs, will meet this urgent need
and at the same time will solve the
farmers problem Of marketing such
products as corn, oats, hay, velvet
beans, etc. This program will enable
the farmer to get away from the
problem Of selling country butter and
at the same time will relieve the
housewife Of much work in connec-
tion With caring for the milk, churn-
ing and making butter, and insure
the market price for the product,
whereas the price for country butter
Is practically always much below that
OF creamery butter. In fact, the sale
Of country butter at. anything like
the market value Of the butter is i'm
possible except upon the basis Of
personal relation. Mrs. Smith may
live in the country and have an ac-
quaintance with Mrs. Jones who lives
in town. They are friends, and Of
course Mrs. Jones will be glad to get
pound or so Of butter each week
from Mrs. Smith, but the very min
ute the butter Of Mrs. Smith loses
its. identity and appears on the coun-
ter Of the grocery store as country
butter, the value falls to IL to Is to
20 cents per pound, whereas when
the butterfat is sold to a creamery 1t
brings the price Of standard butter as
quoted on the Chicago market, which
Is usually almost double tho price
received for country butter.
One beauty about this type of
dairying Is that 1t may be carried on
upon tho average farm without ir
any way upsetting the farm labor
situation. 1t may be made one OF
the phases Of the farm operation, and

There is stiffness in the atmos-
phere-
A sad and weary lay;
4 minor chord peals forth in harsh
ness
Since you went away.
Winter joys have been sadly blighted,
Faded buds Of May;
Fragrant flowers have no sweetness
Since you went away.
All the world looks dark and dreary,
No sun crowns the day;
The moon and stars have lost 1heir
brightness,
But Heaven has been made all the
richer
Since you went away.
The busy bees have ceased their hum
ming,
Bright birds could not stay,
There is no life, or song, or softness,
Since you went away.
But oh, how sweet to say that we
can all be gathered together at Home
on Heavens bright shore!

RELATES CAPTURE OF DAVIS.
Jefferson Davis, President of Confcd
crncy, Captured 81 Years Ago.

crncy, Captured 81 Years Ago.
Spencer, Ohio, May 10. - Fifty
seven years ago to-day Jefferson
Davis, President Of the Confederate
States, was taken prisoner by the
Fourth Michigan Cavalry in an early
morning surprise near Irwinville, Ga.
To-day Thomas Mile Hunter. 73
years-old veteran cs seventy-three
war engagements, sat in an old army
chair on the front porch Of his coun-
try home, two miles from here, and
rocounted eminiscences of that tra-
gic period. He says he Is one Of the
two survivors Of the Fourth Michigan
present at the capture.
The President Of the Confederacy
was not attired in feminine apparel
when the Michigan troopers sur
rounded his little encampment, as
scr.s Veteran Hunter, historical
statements to the contrary &otwith-
standing.
"He wore gentleman's morning
robe over his regular Clothes" said
the aged soldier. "On his mead was
an old striped bonnet. He did not
have on any woman's belongings.
There were not even any strings 20
his bonnet. He was a man sure
enough"
The Michigan troopers, 419 of
them, with ten officers, were prepar-
ing for rest after three days and
nights Of marching from Macon, Sol
der Hunter said, when they espied
q litNb camp secluded amidst clus-
Ger OF sapiings. An advance guard
was SEM on, n few shots were fired,
the entire regiment swooped down,
and the camp was taken.
Jefferson Davis, his wife and four
children; John Fl. Regan, his Post
master General; staff Of aides, SER
wants and some others were found.
Il am the man you are looking
for" the veteran quoted Mr.. Davis
as saying, as soon as he was ap-
preached in his camp.
eve all surrounded him." Mr..
Hunter continued "Col. Pritchard
did the talking for US. We were all
happy and wanted to celebrate. That
made Mr.. Davis mad and he said,
You fellows think you are smart to
capture a camp Of women and chill
d1en. Well, you are not. This is van
dalism'."
The camp was guarded closely that
night, and once the Confederate Pres
ident left his tent and attempted to
walksaway, only to be betrayed by his
spurs as he tripped over a log" Mr..
Hunter said. eve took him to Macon
two days later. Then twenty-five men
escorted him to Washington and sur
rendered him to Major Gen. Miles"
Mr.. Hunter said that the men Of
his regiment were given a $500 bo-
nus for the capture, it being awarded
in 1868, and finally paid nineteen
years later.
Aside from Hunter, Henry Wind
scr, OF Wayne, Mich, is said to be
the only survivor Of the column that
surrounded the Davis camp.
