If the cow does her part of the work of the family, the master must first do his, after deter mining by the methods usual in selecting good cows, first as to breed, then as to individual qualities, the master must see As the that she is properly fed. king had no right to expect his ^ subjects to “make brick without straw as the farmer cannot grow crops without soil, neither can the cow make butter with out food. As every man cannot make brick with straw, so ev ery cow will not make butter with feed. When we make brick wo hire skilled men ; when we want butter wo buy a “skilled” cow. Skill can he de- termiced only by testing. Profit demands the best yield under the least expense. To determine these conditions, ft will bo necessary to make frequent tests; to begin, the food given each cow, for a limited time, should he accurately weighed and estimated. The milk should then ho weighed and tested in the cream gauge to determine its richness. A thorough system of testing ac curately settles the facts ; guess work settles nothing. These tests as to quantity and richness should be made under varying conditions of food, weather and management, and the best con ditions giving the most favora ble results should be finally set tled upon. When results are finally obtained the poor cows can he sent to the slaughter, and only the good ones retained. Test the cows. On The Right Line. Quitmuin (Ga) 7Vf eye single to the good of the party and the good of the State. So much, however, was said during the campaign about the evils of the King rule and the desperate condition to which the people of South Carolina had been reduced that, perhaps, it will not be inappropriate at this distance from the commotion and excitement of the campaign to note what has been done in Charleston under the new Ad ministration to clear out the! Augean stables, so to speak, and to place within the hands of the people the right to adminis ter their own local affairs in their own way. The King has been smashed; there is not a piece of it left, and the offices are now in the control of the men who have hitherto render ed the best service to the party. In Stormonth’s English Dic tionary a “King” is defined as a “circle,” “anything in the form of a circle.” This is the mean ing commonly attributed to the word, hut we have no doubt that future lexicographers will explain that sometimes a King is not round. Perhaps this will appear more clearly when we describe the shape of the King which has so long dominated Charleston, and imposed upon the suffrages of its free and independent people. As we have already stated, the Ring has been broken up, and it is proper to inquire what the Charleston King was. It is generally believed that it was Mr. Bolger, Trial Justice Bolger. the Hon. H. L. P. Bolger. We take it for granted, at any rate, that ho was the King, for un doubtedly the King has been broken, ami is no longer in power; and, so far as we have been able to discover. Mr. Bol ger is the only one of our prom inent fellow-citizens who lias been remandejl to the shades of private life during the pas*. Likes the Combination. A close observer tells us that when a woman on horseback passes, the Frenchman looks first at the woman, the English man first at the horse; the Amer ican looks at both together. Our countryman is quick to appre ciate the complimentary rela tions of both. It is this broad perspective that leads the Amei- i an to prepare his medicine, a complimentary mixture, one in gredient enhancing the medici nal qualities of the other. It is in this way that nature has an ally in furthering the curative power of her remedies for man's ailments. Dr. Westmoreland's ( ’Leviiv Calisaya Tonic is the ernhodi- ' * ’ ment of the latest and best known of these, compounded according to a formula most ex- /A,,,, tensively endorsed. It has v/Ur XhllLllG stood the tests of many years' trial. General debility, loss of Children S appetite, enervated faculties and dyspepsia are entirely cured by | its use.

The County Alliance of’De Kalb county, Georgia, in March 1890 adopted -a cleancut and sound platform which commends itself to every patriot and true Allianceman: “Whereas,The Allianeemoi ment js pot designed to advance I tumults of applause that come the interest of unu man, ora few l*ke echoes upon the mention of men, but of doing the greatest j V s uame, testify to tln> strength, number; and, ‘Whereas, It is not apolitical Fhe great point, however, is that the Charleston Ring is broken and that Mr. Bolger is no longer a menace to the rights of his fellow-citizens and to theii full exercise of the duties and responsibilities of self-govern ment.
