The Bulloch Herald. OFFICIAL ORGAN OF 1/E COUNTY. ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR. PUBLISHED FRIDAYS. DAVID B. TURNER. Emtob A\n Proprietor. Entered at the postifflce at Statesboro, Ga., as second-class mall matter. Statesboro, Ga., May n, 1900 . Persia is said to be the original home of the plum tnd the peach, as well as tho hoochee-coochee. The chances are that the Phil¬ ippines may shortly be pacified, Gen. Otis having left the island. There is a good d^al of talk now as to whether platforms are made to stand on, or simply to get in on. A philosopher declares that ev¬ ery woman who is old enough to get married is old enough to know better. Suppose the populists should put their man Towue on a ticket with Bryan, and expect us to en¬ dorse him I IVill we do it? The postoflice department con¬ siders faith cure and divine heal¬ ing illegitimate, and will hereafter debar them from the use of the mails. At a Methodist conference in Chicago the doors wore not thrown I pen to dancing, buf it was de ded that it is unnecessary to TCI ueel at prayer. A woman in Philadelphia fasted thirty-five days for rheumatism, and died. It is how a mooted ques¬ tion whether she died of starvation or rheumatism. Statistics now being issued re¬ garding the probable size of the coming Florida orange crop, are particularly encouraging. The es¬ timate is for 1,000,000 boxes. - One consoling feature of the scramble for the democratic nom¬ inations for solicitors and judges of the superior court, is that the elections only come once in four years. It is said that civilization in the Philippines is making rapid strides •—half the space in the Manila Pipers being taken up with adver tisemei/s of American beer and whiskey. j|Jf Dewey exports to have a show at the Kansas City convention, he would better be doing gone talking lest, under the adage tha ‘ silence is golden,” he be branded as the rankest of gold bugs. A New York millionaire ran three-quarters of ipeight TffWx’raje? -trci a wager and won $5, 090. There are a hundred boys in Statesboro who would run it in half tho time for a dollar. Some democrats are censuring McKinley for his not vetoing m< re bills during his term of office. They are probably the same set who condemned Cleveland for ex¬ ercising his veto too much. The populists having nominated Bryan and with the certainty that the democrats will tjo so, it only reniMffS'fcrrdriiH-to do a little elec¬ tioneering among the republicans for their nomination, and he will be all solid. An old saying, generally accept¬ ed as true, is that “figures don’t lie.” But the time is near at hand they will be found very con¬ tradictory. For instance, the re¬ publicans claim to be sure of 260 electoral votes this fall, whilo the democrats only allow them 168. Somebody’s figures are wrong. What Alabama lacks of rivaling Kentucky for political muddles, aint much. After fifteen shots had been fired and tho smoke had cleared away, it was found that one man had been seriously wounded and a set of McKinley delegates elected by the Fifth Dis¬ trict republican convention at Dadeville, Ala , ou last Saturday. The At'antacity council is after Mayor Woodwaid again for the too free use of the elixir of jags. I will be recalled that a few months ago that dignitary was about to be impeached on account of over indulgence in that bever¬ age, but upon his pcomise lo re twgti if it occurred again, he was let off. It has occurred again, and he still wants a chance to prove his manhood. Better turn iiim off! Wants a t iianp' of Face. | One frequently hears themeta phorical expression “a two-faced man, and an occasion s! pun 18 made on the expression. For in stance, in Kalamazoo there is a gentleman who is noted more for his good humor than Iiis good looks. An intimate acquaintance complimented him for not being a two-faced man, and when the J young man expressed thanks for; the compliment, the joker added, j “I know if you had two you w f, nld I wear the other one.’' But however hard-favored a man may be, you rarely hear of one who is willing to exchange hie physiognomy for that of another. I The first instance of which we have hevrd is that of a young man in Wilmington, Del., who is tired of his face, and is willing to expend $250 and undergo any necessary amount of pain in order to secure a new one. There isn’t anything the matter with the face except that it bears a resemblance to an¬ other person who is intensely dis¬ liked by the owner of it and his mother. The face, according to its owner, is a close counterpart of the face of his mother’s step-fath¬ er, who cruelly mistreated her when she was a little girl. Every time bis mother looks at him she is remineded of tho cruel step¬ father, and every lime the young imtu himself looks into a mirror he feels a strong resentment to¬ ward the face that looks back at him. He went to Philadelphia the other day and endeavored to per¬ suade a surgeon to remodel the face for him, expressing perfect willingness to accept cheerfully any style if beauty, or even Of ugliness, which the doctor might lie successful in evolving from the old face. The doctor declined. If the young man is really in earnest, lot him tickle the hind legs of a mule with a short switch, and he will soon have a changed face. Some Silly Assertions. Public writers and public speak¬ ers sometimes find themselves at a loss for something sensational to write or say, and in such emer¬ gencies they not infrequently give utterance to assertions that are extremly silly. One such instance was that where a southern paper recently published tho statement that the foundries of the north had entered into a compact not to sell manu¬ facturing plants in the south here¬ after. The reason given was that the south was making such rapid strides in mantt acturing of late that tho manufacturing north is about to find itself jut of a jb£>, avoid which ca'aminty the northern manufacturers had en¬ tered into the above stated agree¬ ment. No talk could be sillier. Those who manufacture machinery in the north are in the business for the money they can make out of it, and it is ridiculous to suppose that they woul turn down an order from the south simply because some other line of business in the north would be indirectly hurt thereby. You don’t find such in¬ stances of self-denial in the busi¬ ness world. Another proof that the assertion was untrue, is that machinery for cotton mills, etc., is still being sold regularly in the south. In the projecting and promoting of mills for the south, it is noted and commenced upon by the New York Journal of Commerce, men who have ahvnys been identified with cotton milling and made a success of that branch of manufacturing are prominent factors. These men, it is reasonable to assume, foresee clearly that the south is destined to be the cotton manu¬ facturing center of the i nitod States, hence they are taking steps to establish themselves early and firmly in this section. A recent development in the sit¬ uation which promises much is the organization of a company to build cotton mill macninery. The plant will be located m Georgia, and will cost $500,000. It will not make spindles and looms. The most efficient patterns of those machines are protected b\ patents, but the Georgia factory can and will make the supplementary ap¬ paratus for the equipment of fac¬ tories. With tho new machinery factory in operation, it will be possible much to equip utw expeditiously. southern mills more New England capital, by the way, is to a considerable extent inter¬ ested in this enterprise. Love '.'ore- Than Blind. It is an o J saying that “love is i j blind,” and rt might not he far from right to add that in many instances it is “as crazy as a bed bug." When it goes so far as to drive a man into having his bow legs broken and reset, simply for the improved appearance that it will give his pants legs, it is both blind and crazy, A 11 instance of this kind is re ported from I.ogansport, Ind.. when Louis lloen, twenty-five years old, handsome and wealthy, asked the hit. Joseph’s Hospital physicians to break his legs and make th^n straight. He had a pronoun d curvature in both limbs below the knees and was ilc termined to undergo the operation, declaring that if Logansport phy-. r,icia:>s would not accommodate him lie would go elsewhere. A surgeon consented. Hoen was chInformed and placed on th 1 operating table. The fitsli and skin were cut at the points where the breaks were desired and the bones were notched clear around with a chisel, after which they were easily snapped in two. The limbs were placed in plaster of paris casts. The young man suffered intense¬ ly for weeks before the bones be¬ gan to knit. He will be discharg¬ ed soon a full inch taller than when he entered the hospital, the straightening of the bones making that gain in his stature. It is snid that Hoen is to be married soon to a girl who had objected to his bow legs Goats ami Hikes. The Chicago l’imes-Herald re ports that the New Tabernacle Sunday-school, 120 South Western avenue, has offered a live goat or a biblo for fifteen new scholars. For bringing in twenty-five schol¬ ars a “bicycle in good condition” will be given. Nor is this all that may come from ardent efforts on the part of the young. Already there has been got out a card containing the list of inducements, and ai the head stands the announcement thqt nothing within the scope of the purchasing power of money will be denied the workers for the Sunday-school. “The system has only been in¬ augurated,” said Mr Ellsworth, “and we have not begun to get full results from it as yet. You see, the Sunday-school is new, and we wish to get scholars as rapidly as possible. Mr. Harvey conceiv¬ ed the sc heme of rewarding- those beys and girls who induced others to come with them, and I think we are going to be pleased with the idea. Tie first Sunday we had 187 scholars, and on Easter Sun¬ day there were 280.” Juries Sometimes Disagree, As grand as is our system of jury trials, whereby a man is tried By a jury of twelve of his peers, grave mistakes are not infrequent. A striking instance of this lias re¬ cently occurred in Savannah, in which a jury declares a man to be innocent of a crime tor which he had already suffered four years confinement in tho penitentiary. In 18'6 police officer Kearnev killed J. W. vVyness in Savannah, for which he was tried and con¬ victed of murder, and sentenced to life imprisonment. He had en¬ dured three years’ confinement when the widow of Wyueas found it necessary to prove that her hus¬ band was killed by accident, and was not murdered. This necessity was brought about by the fact that Wyness carried an insurance poli¬ cy for $5,000, not payable in cast lie was murdered. A jury had already said that Kearney had killed Wyness—it had been clearly proven. Wheth¬ er the widow of Wyness had helped to convict Kearney is not stated, But*at any rate she had allowed him to be convicted, and his con¬ viction had caused her the loss of the $5,000 insurance. This loss could only be avoided by the proof that the killing was acci¬ dental, and this the widow set about to do. And she did it to the satisfaction of a jury of twelve. Observe the anomaly! Kearney convicted of accidental murder. The insurance verdict acquitted him. But for that clause in the insurance policy he probably would have ended his day’s iu the penitenti ary. DAIRY COW VS. THE STEER. A Comparative Statement of Their Productive Value and Cost. We have in some of onr recent month iy talks urged the importance of keep ing more and better grades of cattle on the farms of Georgia,with special direct ness to beef cattle. But our state is about as well adapted to the dairying interests as to beef cat¬ tle. The dairy cow has come to stay and every year she grows in favor. We need education along these lines to at tain the highest success, as it takes more watchful care and intelligent search for a young farmer to raise a pound of good creamery butter than a pound of cotton. From a late bulletin issued from the experiment station of the University of Tennessee we glean the following inter¬ esting facts as shown by actual experi¬ ments. One reason why dairying is bound to come more and more into favor is be¬ cause of the increased production of the cow over the steer. Laws & Gilbert, of England, found tho increase of a fat¬ tening steer in one day to be as follows: Per Cent. Ash.... 1.47 Proteiu .7.69 Fat.... 60.2 Water. .24.6 Ou the following ration of 30 pounds ensilage, 4 {rounds cotton seed meal, 4 pounds bran, 4 pounds of corn meal, and 10 pounds mixed hay per 1,000 pounds live weight, a good dairy cow ought to produce 30 pounds of milk, aud a steer should make 2 pounds of gain per day. By reference to the table given below, the returns from each can bo readily ascertained: In 20 pounds cow’s milk— Per Cent. Sugar................ poop Fat ................... Protein....... Ash......... Total...................... 2.60 In 2 pounds increase on steer— Sugar........ . 0.00 Protein...... .......0.15 Ash.......... 0.03 Fat.......... .....1.30 Total 1.48 The cow’s milk contains over 1 per cent more solids than in the 2 pounds gain of the steer. The cow has produced 94 per cent, of sugar against the steer’s nothing, five and one-third times as much protein and over half as much fat, and if the sugar is reduced to its fat equivalent, nearly as much fat as the steer. Practically all of the constituents of milk are digestible and it constitutes the best and most nourishing of foods. It is thus apparent that tho cow is by far tho most economical machine for tho condensing and manufacture of our course fodders and grains into cheap food products. In an experiment conducted at the Ontario Agricultural College one of the group of steers fed ou a ration of 53.60 pounds of ensilage and 9.64 pounds of mixed meal for 150 days gave the follow¬ ing financial results: Cost of steer at commence¬ ment of test, ....$51.92 Cost of food............. .... 19.60 Cost of attendance....... .... 3.13 Total cost....... ......$74.65 Value of steer at close of test.$92.88 Value of manure 6.75 Total value of steer.......$99.63 Net gain $24.98 A good cow fed this same ration for ihe same period, cost of attendance the same as tor steer ought to produce 25 pounds- of milk a day. Assuming the milk to contain 4 per cent of fat and the cow to be worth the first cost of the steer, we have the following financial results for butter dairying: Value of cow.................$51.02 Milk produced (35x150 days) 3,750 pounds.............. Equal to pounds iu butter, 168.75.................... Worth at 25c per ponud...... 42.18 8 ,200 pounds skim milk, at 25c per 100 for feeding purposes 8.00 Value of manure............. 6.75 Total value of cow aud pro¬ duct ...................... $108.65 Net gain of cow over steer... 9.22 This seems to bo a fair eomparisou of the relative value of the cow and steer iu the production of agricultural wealth.— State Agricultural Department. LAYING UP A COMPETENCE. Something: That Practically Any Man Can IJo Through Self Ileninl. “There are some men of genius,” said Mr. Nippingly, “who accumulate great fortunes by great strokes, but by far the greater number of fortunes, including those of moderate dimen¬ sions, and these form tbe great ma¬ jority of all. are made by the very sim¬ ple process of liviug within one’s in¬ come and investing the surplus with more or less wisdom, but always where it will be safe. “The older 1 grow the more amazed I am that more people don’t lay up a competence for themselves, as most anybody can do. by beginning early in life to live within their income and sticking lo that course faithfully. Did I do this myself? No. Am I. how¬ ever. having learned the wisdom of tills course, now making a beginning? I am obliged to say ‘No.’ 1 am still spending all I get and laying by noth¬ ing. “There are some lessons that we nil easily acquire, but never turn to our own advantage. Cue of these Is of the benefits that arise from the exercise of self denial. Wo get from this at once the direct bene tit of what wo save, and self denial nourishes, strengthens and broadens the will and enables a man constantly to do cud to earn more and more, “There’s simply nothing like iself de¬ nial. It is the key to every one of life’s treasures, and every body has one of those golden keys iu his posses¬ sion, eager to help Ului and waiting only for him to bring it in use.”--New York Bun.
