did, no participant in tho great struggle
expected to soe its principles vindicated
in his duy. The drllerence,
in principle, of the secession of Panama
and the South is that of tweed lndee

Roosevelt, noted for blowing hot and
cold, has dow placed himself in the
purudoxicul position of encouraging
the secession of Panama and representing
at the same time a constituency
that had expended billions in
dollars and millions in men to crush
the South for anticipating his views.
In the recognition of Panama he vindicates

Winnsboro Dairy Project.
Winnsboro, Nov. 27.?Special: Tha
discussion of tho establishment of a
chceso factor}' at this point has
brought forth tho following letter
from Jlr. Nesom, of Clemson College,
which was written in reply to a communication
usking him in regard to
the practicability of such enterprises
in this section :
"1 am delighted to henr that the
prospects for cheese factories in your
section are good. I have frequently
taken occasion to remark that the
principal reason why farms all over
tho South are decreasing in fertility
and value, as they arc in Fairfield
county is that our system of agriculture
forces tho sale of field crop, instead
of animal products. If nil that
will do to feed to animals were fed on
the farms, where it is grown and tho
manure returned to the soil, poor
lands would soon bo a thing of the
past, for it should be remembered
that all clay and sandy lauds in this
section are susceptible to tho highest
state of fertilization. * * *
"For the benefit of the doubters 1
will say that a northern cattlo man
who recently visited this State told
me that cattle could bo grown here
and maintained at half what they
cost in the North. We have the
t hrce requisites for any stock country,
namely, a good soil, a warm
climate and plenty of rainfall. There
i-? no doubt that dairy cattlo are the
most profitable of any class if they
are properly handled and a ready
market is found for their products.
The dairy man near the city, where

most out of the business, while those
iti t he country* und Ht small towns
are forced to resort to tho manufacture
of butter und cheese,
so as ic get I he products in a condensed
foiiuto enable him to transput
them to distant markets at the cheapest
P -:dt'le fitiglit rate. Butter will yhl-l :
ab int hint" as much as the sale of sweet ,
tt.il v, hut when the cheese factory comes ;
a'.oi g, it will pay as much for the milk as
it will icing it made into butler, and
the daiiy man is relieved of all the
t (> .hie of making and uvuketing his
hatter. Experts claim that mil!< in this
rv.i'o will make more cheese and better
eh-1St: than the same amount of milk
will in the North This is no doubt
true, and is possibly due to the fact that
much of the milk here is gotten from
.)t is y and other dairy breeds that give
a i:ch milk to favorable climatic c nidilio.saud
luxuriant feeds. Dairy cattle
in the rural districtsca i only lis made
profitable by using the dairy products in
the manufacture of butter and cuees>,
an I it" they cannot In used it is better to
di-card them altogether, and breed beef
