There is a story of the kind re>orters call "human interest" behind he requisition made by Governor ^.nsel upon Governor White of New fork for Anthony Burgess, colored, rented in Clarendon for the alleged nurder last January 22 of his soiin-law. The New World tells the tory as follows: "Many years ago old black Anhony Burgess used to nurse and care or L. R. Mcintosh on the plantation lown at Manning, S. C. Yesterday hat same L. R. Mcintosh appeared ?ith requisition papers and Sheriff S. B. Gamble'of Clarendon county md started back to Manning with he old negro, who will have to stand rial on the charge of murdering his on-in-law. "The negro was arrested a week igo on description sent by Sheriff lamble, but he refused to admit his lame or that he was the man wantid. Yesterday when * Mr. Mcintosh ippeared at police headquarters and Lnthony was brought before him, he aid: " 'It's all right; I knows that man, os I nussed him when he was a >aby and I knowed his father befo' dm. They's gentlemen, and I won't ?ut no gentlemen to bother on my iccount.' "When asked if he were willing o return with the officers from South >outh Carolina, the old man said: " Til do anything they wants me o do. I've made enough trouble low. I run away cos I was afraid f what the negroes down there might lo to me. I wasn't afraid of the whites, cos they're gentlemen. I'll ;o back and if they clear me all ight, and if they don't?why that'll >e all right, too.' "And Mcintosh slipped his arm hrough that of Anthony and said: Come along, uncle.' To a reporter le said: 'My father's last dollar pill be spent, if need be, to clear the ild nigger.' "Burgess is charged with killing lis son-in-law on January 22 last by hooting. The old man maintains hat five weeks before that the man :illed his daughter by mistreatment. "Anthony had but one regret at eaving New York, and that was that he Baptist mission church, where he tad acted as janitor, owed him $1 or services. He hoped Pastor Wilon would hear of< his predicament ind forward the money to him in are of Sheriff Gamble." ?7 Care of the Daily Cow.* As dairy products have for a long ime, been popular as human foods '"il om (LovfLnaiL Lft romnin fin in leflnitely, it is surprising that so ittle attention has been given to the production and especially is this true n our Southern States. It is safe o say that there are no articles so ommonly used in our diet about rhich there is such a lack of accuate knowledge and such oxtrc vaant methods of production as is the ase in the production of milk, ream, butter, or cheese. With our peculiar advantages uch as climatic conditions insuring ong seasons for crop growing and liminating the necessity for expenive housing of cattle, the State of outh Carolina should figure largely ,s an exporter of dairy products intead of relying on other States to upply a considerable portion of our Leeds in this respect. It is not for a moment assumed hat every farmer could profitably ngage in the dairy business, but it 3 certain that there is room for many aore and that many of those already ngaged in it could add materially o their profits by a better undertanding of the underlying principles, 'he first important question to be deided in starting a dairy is that of hoosing the kind of cows to be kept. Without entering here into a disussion as to the relative merits of ertain dairy breeds it is sufficient o say that there are certain characeristics which distinguish the proftable dairy cow from the profitable eef producer; that these characterstics are especially found in such reeds as Jerseys, Guernseys, Holteins and Ayrshires and that the trictly beef type of cattle are, as a ule, unprofitable in the dairy Not every man can profitably hanlle the pure breeds at the start, but ;ood grades of the above are very atisfactory. No matter how good a tart has been made in the selection if the cow there still remains the mportant question of the proper andling and feeding. It is a mater of common observation that luring the season when the pastures re providing an abundant supply of eed, succulent and nutritious, it is n easy matter to keep up the milk low; hence we cannot do better than o substitute, as far as possible, these latural conditions at other seasons of he year. This' means that during the winter t is necessary to supply some feed hat is succulent or juicy; this again neans ensilage, and right here is a ;ood place to say that for herds of If A BUSINESS El 19 THINK WHAT Rucerton's Business ( H XMAS SCHOLARSH 5 * young; man or young; | * era this advertisemei jgS plete training; in eitt 95 keeping Free.

Yot I first to answer from I am one of the next first ten, yo ! receipt on a scholarship and a re< ten or twelve head and over the sil is a profitable investment Corn ei silage is, however, not in itself ric enough for a complete ration an should therefore be supplemente with some concentrate and in thi section cotton seed meal should h used as a basis for the concentrate portion of the feed. A fairly goo ration for a cow weighing 90 pounds and giving thirty-two quart of milk daily would be forty pound corn ensilage; four pounds cotto seed meal; two pounds corn meal and two and a half pounds whes bran along with about six pound good, bright stover or mixed sorghui and pea vine hay. The corn meal may frequently b profitably replaced by dried bee pulp which is giving very good r< suits as a dairy feed and can gene rally be obtained here for much les than corn meal. Salt should be give regularly, preferably on the fee< say about a small table spoon fu sprinkled on food twice daily. For best results the cows shoul be kept warm and comfortabl housed in winter and, chiefly becaus feeding and watering should be don at regular intervals, it is best t supply water in the stable. Th .dairy cow is a very sensitive crea ure and quickly resents ill treatmen so that all roilgh treatment shoul be absolutely abolished in the dair barn. Treated in this manner th dairy cow will go on complacentl chewing her cud, generously pourin out the milk, and scarcely, noting th difference between summer and wii ter. Fed on such a ration as abov described, which is only one of man .good ones, the cost to keep t market prices for the feed for a co1 giving 750 to 900 gallons of mil would be from $50 to $60 per yeai j Figure out the profits from such [business for yourself( and whe through do not forget that in a shoi time after establishing a small dair herd the per acre yield of cotton an other crops may be doubled and trel bled; in short there is no more idet method of building up a farm tha by establishing a dairy herd on i When properly handled the losse from diseases in a dairy herd ar comparatively rare though some c the common diseases, will be deal with in a subsequent artiele. j It is saf^ to say that the dairy coi is destined to piay an important pai in the building up of many of ou so-called worn out farms.
