In 1868 he was appointed division superinten dent of the Southern Express Com pany, for the Eastern division, snd be filled that office most acceptably until 1883, when be was compelled to resign upon account of failing health.

The dairys of Chariotte are unexcelled. ' One of the oldest and most popular is the Spnngdale, owned by Mr. McD Watkins. and located 00 a beautitul farm one mile east of the city. Mr, Watkins yesterday took n News re porter through bis dairy, and it is a pleasure to speak of it The dairy is admirably arranged, and is cer tainly an interesting place to visit The cows are abeliered in winter in two large barns, arranged especially for the .dairy business, and in them the reporter aaw sixty bead of cattle standing in rows of four at the feed troughs. An automatic collar keeps them in position, and while it allows them ample room for eating and resting', it prevents them from goring each other.' The device for keeping the stables dean is a most ingenious and perfect one, The feeding ar rangement is alio a novel thing; the whole herd of sixty cows can be fed in ten minutes. The barns are sup plied with ensilage cells, root cellars, etc The feed is cut by machinery, and hay is luted trom the wagons into the lofts by a pair of machine tongs that lifts half a load at a time and dumps it where wanted. Mr Watkins bought this farm in 1881, partly 00 credit, and commenced business with one cow. He does not deliver his milk in jars, "because. he says, "milk should never be put up in air-tight cans until it is thor oughly cooled, to that the animal neat may escape. There is n greater probability of the milk being tainted when delivered in air-tight jars. His cows are staQ-fed summer and winter, being fed in winter on aflo, the best food known, and are always fat enooirh for beefl "Messrs. Ecdes St Bryan," said Mr. Watkins, "have been taking my milk for more than year at 13 cents per, gallon, in preference to the milk that they were s-etanff at so cents." Mr. Wstkms is also a' good farmer. A good many acres of his bind have netted him from f 30 to 6o per acre in clover. Brick aa4 Terra Carta Warka.
