A remarkable story which has lately attracted great sympathy in Cape Colony, is that of a man named Aprosk's. who. after having been confined Robben Island for eight years as a person suspected of having leprosy, was recently allowed to return to his family as non-afflicted. He was formerly a shipwrecked sailor who took a farm at the Cape, married and pros, pored exceedingly. Mosquito bites were mistaken for leprosy by a fieldcornet, who sent him to Robben Island. He returned home broken in apirit and financially ruined, his property having been sold for the upkeep of his children. Bugs Pressed Into Cakes. That questionable epicurean tidbit, t^e snail, has a rival in Mexico la a species of bugs known popularly as "water boatmen." These aquatic . bisects are gathered in large numbers on the large lakes near the city ( - of Mexica, and when dried are much prized S3 an article of diet by the natives. The immense numbers in t which they are foand on these lakes Is indicated by the fact that they are now being gathered extensively for export, for use as bird and fish foods, at a price of less than 10 cents a pound. A food much relished by trout I Is made by passing the dry "water boatmen" through a coffeo mill, grinding them as finely as desired, ?fter which scalding water is poured over them to soften them. They are then mixed with 20 per cent, of mush, producing what is stated by the Bureau of Fisheries to be the best food for small fish that has been discovered during their many years ot ex [perience in this line of work. Caged birds, it is asserted, are equally fond of this aquatic tid bit. The detection of the false is often tfte first step toward the discovery of ; the true.

No dairyman has answered this question to my satisfaction, nor have I answered it myself. There are so many costs to count, it seems impossible to sot to the exact cost. My estimate is made by dividing the total outlay of labor, feed bought, interest on investment, taxes and depreciation, into the total milk yield for one year, again for three years, and again for five years. After trials of this kind, I find that with forty or more cows I can produce milk at about one and one-third cents per quart, and land valued at $73 per acre. This has been the hardest mathematical problem I have ever tried to work. opa ca monr looL*c whnrp flip turn is between loss or gain. If in feeding forty cows daily, there is a waste of feed of one cent daily for each cow, there is a loss of $150 in twelve months. And so it Is with the whole work; the little details make or break the enterprise. With all the confinement, early hours, and other objectionable features of dairy work. I believe it the most interesting and profitable branch of farm occupation.?Address of C. C. Moore, Charlotte. X. C., before Farmers' State Convention, Raleigh. Milk and Milking. The Milk.?The milk of a healthy cow is entirely free from germs when it leaves the udder and it would remain unchanged for an indefinite period without the use of any preservative, if it were kept protected from bacterial germs. In actual practice it is impracticable to thus entirely protect it, but it is desirable to do so as nearly as possible without incurving undue expense or labor. Hence, all the surroundings ? the hands, the clothing, the vessels, the floor and the stalls and the atmosphere itself? should be as clean as possible. In spite of all ordinary precautions the milk rapidly becomes infected with different species, or kinds, of bacteria ?some helpful, harmful and some indifferent. The helpful kinds are indispensable to the proper ripening of the milk. The harmful ones cause bad flavored milk, cream and butter. The needed helpful kinds predominate over the other kinds when all the utensils, surroundings, etc., are sweet and i clean, sweet and wholesome. Offensive odors are mainly due to bacteria, and these odors or the bacteria that cause them, will be quickly absorbed by milk, resulting in bad smelling milk and cream, and ill-flavored butter. -i- i Lime and Pea* Make Soil*. i The educated farmer can yearly increase the capacity of his lands by sowing peas, and in the fall applying twenty-five to fifty bushels of lime per acre. The application of lime can be made by burning the rock on the farm or near it. Lime is the basis from which the rich soils of middle Tennessee have acquired their strength. Lime increases the warmth of the soil and hastens the maturity of the crops grown thereon. Lime assists fertilizers by neutralizing the acids in the soil, while nearly all plants use lime as food. It is not only plant food, but exerts a chemical effect on the soil, which brings into use other materials which are beyond the capacity of plants to reduce. When green food is turned under, lime will be found a valuable adjunct, as it neutralizes the acids produced by fermentation, and combines with them. It is a heavy substance and has a tendency to go down, hence, if broadcasted on the surface of a field, it will sooner or later be within the reach of plants. Stone lime that has been air slaked until It is fine is excellent, though some farmers nse shell lime. Foundation of Farming. A one-crop system of farming can not be a success for any length of time. No matter how rich the soil may be, it will soon become exhausted in certain elements when only a single crop is grown year after year. Dairying is the foundation of successful diversified agriculture. The feeding and . care of the animals takes but little , time each day and does not interfere ' with other work. In ascertaining the profits of dairy- ' ing, the fertilizer value of the manure , Biiuum uc lacvtru juiu irv/iiamriaiiuu. I Barnyard manure makes (he cheapest , aurl best general fertilizer, anil 110 land can 1)0 brought into a high state of fee- ( tility without it. It would pay to keep 1 a few cows on every farm, even though no profit resulted from the sale of milk and butter. Crops grown on land where barnyard manure has been applied suffer much less during a dry season from a lack of moisture than \ would otherwise be the case. i No IIooKtcr Wanted. 1 Fresh eggs are always wanted when 1 News of the Day.

Hens will lay as many eggs without the rooster as they will when mated. This may be a new thought to most of the patrons of the Southern Agriculturist, but it is a fact. Any farmer growing eggs for market should have the hens in separate enclosures from their roosters. Eggs that are to be preserved should be from hens that have no male birds running with them. The reason for this is that a fertile egg has within it the life germ which begin to develop at a temperature of ninety degrees, and once this development has begun the eggs decay rapidly under th.' best conditions. Eggs will keep pure and fresh much longer when the hens have not come in contact with the male. The egg is better for eating that has not been fertilized, and it will remain sound much louger than the fertilized egg. Lice in Poultry Home*. If the poultry houses have been oe cujm'u ui mgui uunu? iut? MUXJUILT UJ . the fowls, who have been on the range j during the day, they need a thorough j cleansing before the winter laying birds are permitted to occupy them. All roosts should be built so that they l may be easily removed. Take them ' into the open and scrub them with kerosene oil in full strength. With \ a brush go into the crotches in which | the ends of the roosts rest and cover well with kerosene; all other corners should be treated in the same manner. J The next day make a heavy white* wash and thoroughly cover the sides I of the house, the nest boxes and the J roosts; then scatter some unslaked lime over the floor. Arrange new material for nests, and j after putting a little clean sand in the i bottom of each nest, sprinkle the sand liberally with insect powder before ! putting in the straw or buy. The next thing is the dust box or boxes, and this is important, for if the dust box is kept in usable condition the poultry j will do much toward freeing themselves from lice. Road dust is a good material iUl lut? uuat w.\, aim <uiu II may be mixed about one-third its bulk of fine, unslaked lime. Every three or four weeks remove some of the mater- i lal and put in fresh. Take care of the lice problem in the way indicated, and there will be more laying heus in the dock. Selecting a Herd. Only the best colts should be so- | cured with which to form a dairy herd. Starting with ten cows, a dairyman, by selection and breeding, is able to have a herd of thirty or forty select cows in three or four years. It should be remembered that a good bull constitutes one-half of the herd. "The bull should always be pure-bred and selected from a family from which the cows are of established dairy excellence." From time to time the poor cows?that i3, those whose milk contains but a small percentage of butter fat, as shown by the Babcock testshould be sold for beef. A scrub animal of any kind consumes practically the same amount of feed as does the better animal, and a dairyman should know what each animal is doing so iL-i U U. 1,1a mill ue way utr auie lu uuim uy ma herd only from the best cows. I Cow Pent For Poultry. Cow peas for food for poultry wero harvested after maturity, stored in dry lofts and thrown to the fowls in ! scratching pens, where they were scratched over and searched for during the day. After a few days the egg supply very visibly increased, and within a few weeks almost doubled that from an equal number of hens kept in separate quarters and fed on other grains. The hens seemed to like the small branches and leaves, and would eat every particle except the hard, stiff stems. The general health of the flock was excellent, and not a single hen > showed the least symptom of ailment during the winter season.?Southern ! Agriculturist. Growing Railroad Tien.

Catawba Junction, S. C., Special.? Five dead and several in a dying condition is the result of the catastrophe which took place at six minutes past 1 o'clock Friday morning, when the Seaj board passenger train No. 41 sped ! across a sinking bridge 300 yards south cf the Catawba river and two miles | from Catawba Junction, and then plunged from the tracks down a steep embankment about 30 feet high, only to be followed by an extra freight engine, No. 654, with a caboose attached, mingling the two flyers in a mass of wood, steel and iron with about 40 pieces of human cargo. There was not a single soul among them that escaped unhurt. It was said by trainmen of long experience that a more complete demolishment of railroad equipment could scarcely be imagined. So thoroughly ruined were the engines and the coaches that the trainmen were on the point of setting Are to the debris, but the authorities of York county stopped them. The scene at the bridge beggars description. The engines lie overturned?huge. shapeless monsters of iron, with their helmet-shaped sand boxes and other parts scattered within a radius of 100 feet. The coaches are like crushed wooden shells, with their red plush seats in indescribable confusion; trucks, wrenched loose from the bottom of the cars, are scattered around; about the only part or parcel of the railroad equipment remaining intact are the two red lanterns swinging from the rear of the Pullman. There were many theories advanced as to the cause of the accident. The railroad men fell in line with the opinion of Mr. George S. Fitzwater. chief detective of the Seaboard Air Line, that the collapse of the bridge, and the tearing loose of the right hand rails, were the result of the work of some malicious person or persons. Mr. Fitzwater Bhowed six spikes and several anglebars which he picked up near the wrack J tKo monlro of t'.XJU BillU Liiai uir/ uuic mc 1UUI i\o Vk having been tampered with. Upon this theory, it was concluded that the pas' eenger train had struck weakened spots on the lower half of the bridge. A speed cf 40 miles an hour had enabled the train to carry itself almost over the sinking structure, but the rails had widened; the Pullman, which did not quite clear the chasm, acted as a drawback. the engine careened, tearing from their fastenings the rails on the right hand side going south, causing the train to be hurled over the embankment. What motive there could be for anyone to bring about such slaughter. and who the guilty persons might be. neither Mr. Fitzwater, nor the other railroad men attempted to explain. A close examination of the rails, ties, road-bed and bridge was not productive of much light on the subject; all appeared to be sound and solid. The rails on the side where the train toDpled to destruction were twisted to an arc shape. The track is not in a curve in the vicinity; it stretches straightway for perhaps a mile. mutr nsin ivn wmrvnrcn The killed are: / ENGINEER E. Y. BARKSDALE, Abbeville. S. C.
