Send * CO., Totedo, O. ,or « Clemson CoUege, Feb. 20.—The profit to be made from a dairy herd depends largely upon the selection of gtod dairy cows to start with. It requires from 50 to 75 percent of the feed a cow is capable of consum ing to maintain her body. It » therefore much cheaper to produce say 30 gallons of milk with ten cows than fifteen cows, says P. P. La Master, chief of the 9 dairy di vision. A good dairy cow is one which, first, is well bred and carries that inherent tendency to convert feed in to milk and butter fat; that is, she comes from s breed and family of heavy producers. Her owner should know something about her history. Second, the dairy cow should be angular, cleancut, of medium length and with a feminine appearance. Third, she should have a strong con stitution and be rather largc.indi- csting that she can consume and di gest large quantities of. feed, especi ally roughages, (Which make the cheapest milk). Fourth, she should have a large pliable udder, teats of good size and well placed, and large long, crooked milk veins. Fifth, she should appear alert and energe tic. Sixth, she should have a mel low loose skin of medium thick ness and soft silky hair, a clean • *. fine bone, and should appear free from beefiness throughout. A dairy cow which produces 300 pounds► o f butter fat in one year makes three tiipes as much prifit as one which produces 150 pounds. MASTER’S SALE. State of South Carol ingy County of Barnwell.

CALHOUN COUNTY STRONG FOR JIMMY BYRNES The Allendale paper announces that J. Miles Riley of Hampton County has “about decided” to op pose J. K. Byrnes for Congress from the 2nd district. It is out of our district and none of our rat kill ing but, somehow, we have form ed a rather high opinion of that young fellow . Byrnes as a Con gressman. He makes the impres sion of being keen witted, alert, active, efficient and unafraid. In a rough and tumble fight with the Rebublieans he is never at a dis advantage. For a -young man he was rather too personal with “Uncle Joe” Fordney but the old man was whipped, lost his temper, and became very exasperating. The chances are that Byrnes will be ] hard to beat.
