BEAUFORT COUNTY. In the campttigii which the Division ot iHarket* ia making in Beaufort County, the farmers of the sectiDn Mtottnd Aoror* liave proyen alert to the advantages of organization. Th?^y »cem to be of progressive chariacter and able to. recogniie the good busi ness opportunitiM of organi«i»tion. Th« ide« of. these men is to orguniie not only. for the marketing of one crop but for all crops grown in tho •edion. Cti>ad crops of »>y bwna, corn and potatoes are made in the re gion and itiost of the families have an abundance of chickens for the mark.jf. Such an organization as would be required here will tie(?essitni& the em ployment of a manager throughout the greater part of the year. Every county in the Stale would profit by hiving an organiKation like thiSj but it 15 the most difficuJt of all to mal;e succeed. To hire u manager the year around means a larger expense, and imless ; {rood salary is paid a firsf- (.•lass iruv.i cai! not be sccuml, A mnn- ag-ei; has to have a graat deal of (m=;- iiess ability lo boL-bnie acquainted, with the different markets for the dift'ei’eiii; pwiiucts.

In the experiments conducted it was found that ducks are much easier raised than chickens. They h»ve i low mortality when properly taken care cf and when the parent stock is of (rood vitality. Hie butterntiik cheese (cottage cheese made from buttermiik) fed in the experiments contained 24 per cent of protein. The meat aciap used in the- tesU to give the anima! protein was "Rarva,” which is labelad 85 per cent protein. It was found that throe-quai-ters of j a pound of buttcrmiil; chocse could be ( made from one gallon of buttermilk. One pound from five |U«rts and three | pounds of the cheesie was worth one i pjund of the meat scrap, tf the meat ] meal or scrap was of low^ grade, carry, ing only half of the amount of pro-: tein, then one-half of the amount of ■ buttermilk would r?pre.?ent one pound j of meat meal. I In calcul.ating the rations, this ratio j should give practically equal results j so far as the pratein content from ani-' mad origin is concerned. i If three pounds of iiuttermiik chees,-; 1 is wortli one pound of meat meal from 1 a protein standpoint, then fiftec!, quarts of buttermilk will take the 1 place of fiite pound of meat rnenl, IMS.

The Re publicans and ftogr^ssives are find ing that they can get togetitcr on the anti-Democratic issues. Th« e.ection ! yesterday means plainly the popular condemnation of the present Oetho- jcratic. administration. The .Underwood i Tariff bill has proven a failure as a reveriUe producer. “Taxes undor the Democratic ad ministration are greater than ever and applied to about everything that could 'oe taxed,. Yet the people are getting nothing for it. There is a growing deficit in the National Treasury. Whatever business there is has grown out of the Eiaropean war. ‘ The people realize this is only, temporary and iha thought uppermost in their tninds is: What next, when the war ends? “The happenings of yesterdr.y show that the peopje are thinking seriously of the situation and have reachcd the cinclusioii that the Re- jaibliftin .policies will be safer after the vvar than those we have today.

I was really oii tl^ verge of doing someth..’.g desperate - to ray life, because I could. 't make her bielieve as I did. One night as I si.t in the parlor packing nty hands on tip of each other a huge bug which no doubt providen tially assigned to my ihid-nigl'.t woor ing, came buzzing around the dim light, sawing a. terrible ga.sh in the silence. I made a savage stroke at the rude intruder and missed the bug^ kiiocking off the schpol marm’s wig of red hair which was artificial, leav- ■ ihg her head as bald as a fresh skinv ned tomato. She screamed wth e,\- citement causing both plates of her false teeth to fail out on the flo'jr and break to pieces.
