Agitation is education. Education is the salvation of the WAREHOUSE POPLAR STREET, MACON, GA. Cotton 5S£?>-'«= On the farm of Haining Mains, on the estate of the Duke of Port land, for some months past a new milking machine, invented by Mr. WiUiam Murchland, sanitary engi neer of Kilmarnock, has been in operation. The apparatus, as installed at Haining Mains, is of a very simple character. An ordinary iron pipe, one inch in diameter, is carried round the cow house at a conven ient height above the' shoulders of the cows. It communicates with a hand pump, whereby the air is drawn from the pipe, a circular tank connected with a shallow well of water serving as a regulator of the vacuum. From the iron pipe , project connections, one opposite the space between every pair of animals, each connection being furnished with a stop cock. To any one of these connections is fitted a length of India-rubber tubing, the other end being attached to a noz zle near the top of the milk pail, which is of special construction. The pail is cylindrical in form, with a truncated conical top. Its opening, which is four inches wide, is closed by means of a thick glass disk, which rests inside flush with the outer rim of the pail, support ed by a thick rubber band, held in place by a projecting ledge under neath. On one side of the shoul der of the pail is the nozzle which has been referred to and on the op posite side are four smaller noz zles, all of which are like the small connections upon the iron pipe. The solitery nozzle is for attach ment to the long flexible tube from the iron pipe; the other four are for short lengths of tubing con nected in their turn with specially constructed teat cups, each of which receives a teat of the cow under operation. The cups, like the pail, are made of tinned iron, . and each one is provided with a tap or stop cock. The milk pail has, in addition to its handle, a couple of hooks, by means of which it is suspended a little in front of the cow’s udder, a broad band of girting being laid across the ani mal’s loins for the purpose. The modus operaudi is very sim ple. When all is ready, the pump is worked by a lad, and the air is thus exhausted from the iron pipe. Then a pail, with its cups attached, is adjusted under the cow, the long tube is joined to one of the connections overhead, the stop cock is opened, and a partial vacu um is established within the pail. Next one of the cups is moistened and placed so as to embrace a teat; the stop nock of the cup is then opened, the teat is thus brought under the influence of the vacuum, and the greater external atmos pheric pressure at once causes the milk to flow. After all four cups have been thus adjusted, four jets of milk can be seen flowing into the can immediately beneath the glass cover. In from eight to ten min utes the cow is milked “dry.” The animals submit very quietly to this novel method of milking, and after the first time they appear to be scarcely conscious that they are being deprived-of their milk. The apparatus, indeed, promises to relieve cows of much of the dis tress which, under existing cir cumstances, seems inevitable. Its use will obviate the excrusiating pain that animals with chapped or swollen teats must necessarily suf fer when milked by hand. More over! its employment will insure much greater cleanliness in the operation of milking, a benefit of at least as much importance to the consumer as to the producer. One attendant can conveniently keep half a dozen cows going. By the time the adjustment has been made for the sixth cow the first cow will about have finished milking, and her pail can be taken for the sev enth cow, and so on. - To maintain the vacuum a few strokes at the pump occasionally are necessary. The southward movement of men and money is strikingly shown in the long special trains filled with northern'’ capitalists that are-now almost daily seen en all southern railroads that reach the great min eral belt of this section. From Virginia to Alabama, the country is crowded with men of money from the north looking for invest ments in the manufacturing enter prises, jn mineral and timber lands, in the development of new towns, and the development of new railroads. The activity in all these lines surpasses anything ever seen in this country. Fortunately the claims so long made by the Manu facturers’ Record as to the resour ces of the south, and to the won derful industrial future that awaits it, are more than sustained by all who investigate for themselyes,and unite in saying that the half has not been told. Even the foreign iron and steel makers who are now in the south, express their amaze ment at the vastuess of the south’s mineral wealth, which far surpass es anything that they have expect ed to find. The development of this wealth is creating new towns all through the mineral regions, and hundreds more will be started to become prosperous centers of industrial life and activity. Dur ing the last ten days or two weeks, many great enterprises have been projected, and many more will soon be made public. If We Only Knew Chicago Herald. How few people know when to stop. If the preacher knew when to stop preaching how much more satisfactory the result * of his ser mons might be.

Some days ago the pain was greatly increased, and while he was moving about the house the bullet fell to the floor, since which he has been greatly relieved. It is a large, old-fashioned bullet, and shows to have been made by the old mold process, ■ ■hi** S'X’OZESZE! What oxygen is to the air cheer fulness is to the-home. One--of the easiest things in the woVld is to he mistaken. You just bring a couple of little quarrels into your family and they’ll breed like sparrows. Ignorance is not disgraceful if one is trying his best to learn,, but, like poverty, it js very inconven ient. Let us be of good cheer, remem bering that the misfortunes hard est to bear are those which never come. Study is the bane of boyhood, the ailment of youth, the indul gence of manhood, and the restor ative of age. If we did but know how little some enjoy the great things that they possess there would not be much envy in the Aiorld. An old philosopher asked to say he never once regretted having held his tongue, but very often felt sorry for having spoken. Positiveness is a most .absurd foible; if yon are in the right it lessens your triumph, if in the wrong it adds shame to yonr defeat The true student is never afraid or ashamed to say “I don’t know.” The fool would sooner guess at it and miss it, than to acknowledge ignorance. Rich people often have the sim plest of habits, and wise people never make a display of their knowledge. Educated people use simple and direct language. These attibutes of the rich, the wise and the educated, are exactly the ones which the opposite class do not copy.
