postolllco, making a total of $00,000
for the federal building and lot.

The late Judge Charles Q. Dant/.lcr

THE Til OL LEY LINK SCHEME.
The fact must be recognized by the
citizens of Laurcns and surrounding
towns directly interested in the plans:
formulating and apparently rapidly'
erystnlizing in the movement to se
cure the trolley extension, that oppor
tunity is again knocking at our door.
Laurcns has some strong and Influen.
tial friends, but they will need the
support of every business man in this
section in order to (arty the issue
through, If it be possible to accom
plish it at all now.
Things look very encouraging in
view of reient developments, and
thost In position to know express
themselves as being very sanguine
OVOr the situation. If the line can be
brought through to Clinton.'it is pos
sible dial Newborry and Columbia
avIII become interested in the effort
to carry the system to those towns, j
In this connection the following ed
itorial article is reproduced from
the Columbia state. V
The business men of Lauretta and
Clinton are actively at work to induce
the building front Greenville of an
intcrurhan trolley line, one of the cot
ton mill Companies at I,aureus, opera
ting 43,200 spindles, having offered to
subscribe on a basis of 2."> cents a
spindle, which would make its suh
HCrlption something more than $10,
000 to tho proposed line.
Information comes to The State
that these towns are eager to have
Columbia cooperate with them, with
the object of obtaining an electric
road from Greenville with Columbia
at its Soulhern terminus. They say
That sooner or later such a line must
be opened and that it is to Columbia's
interest to work actively for it now.
Whon arrangements for electric rail
road "oim tract Ion in the Piedmont re-'
gions seems to be taking shape.
Columbia, of course, ihould not and
will not neglect any opportunity to
promote the proposed enterprise; trol
ley connection with the t'p-couniry
would he of Immense common Inl
benefit and this city could not afford
to he idle j| the slightest chance of
Obtaining it should appear.

RIGHTS or ItUKAL POLICE.
'Die Advertiser is in reclpt of a com
munication from one of the rural po
'ice ollicers of the county in which
Objection is raised to the manner a
certain case was recently conducted in
the magistrate's court at Mountvllle
by the attorney for the defense.
Without going into the details of the
matter, as somewhat elaborated by
our correspondent, it appears that the
rural policeman was prosecuthig a
negro whom he had arrested at a
Church gathering, charged With some
misdemeanor and resisting arrest.
At the hearing before the magistrate,
our correspondent complains that de
fendant's counsel questioned the right
of said officer in going to the church
authority as a peace officer, saying Iiis
autorlty as a poace officer, saying ills
"uniform didn't prove that he was an
officer."
The Act provided for rural police
officers for Laurens county was pass
ed nf Hie last ?'???-??i! of the general
assembly, and in accordance with its
provisions two men were appointed for
this county. The officers, we believe,
have been doing their full duty and
acting at all times within the province
of their Mgh commission. They are
discreet, experienced officers, and we
do not wonder that they feel discour
aged when an effort is made to belittle
them as officers of the law and ques
tion their rights In the premises.
However, The Advertiser is con
strained to believe that the alleged
language of the attorney referred to,
who has himself taken a solemn obli
gation to uphold the majesty of the
law. was not intended as inllainatory
and to that extent was misinterpreted.
Tin- rural police law is on the statute
hooks of the State and it Is the duty
of all to assist in carrying out its
provisions. If it proves Ineffective
and unpopular, it may he repealed,
hut it is now in full force.
As to the purport " the act and the
riKhts of the officers opcatlng undot
its provisions, the following ?.\, .
from the text of the Act are here giv
en :
Sec. 3. That it shall he the du'v oi

CLEMSON EXTENSION WORK
Much of the butter that is now be
ing produced on the farms of this
State is of very poor quality. This is
not due to the lack of good materials
to work with, but is due to the methods
practiced. It must be remembered
that the Hist essential in making good
butter is to have good cream. By
good cream we mean cream that bus
been obtained from the milk gotten
from healthy cows and drawn in a
cleanly manner. The udders of the
! cows must be washed and dried be
fore each milking and the milkers
I should milk with clean and dry hands,
lud in such a way that as little dirt as
I possible will get into the milk.
As soon as the milk is brought into
the house strain it through not less
than three thicknesses of cheese cloth.
? This will get out all tine dirt and hairs.
I Strain into pans or bowls that have
i been well washed and sunned and
! place in the refrigerator or the cold
est spot possible. 'At the end of twen
ty-four hours all the cream will have
risen and my be taken off in any con
venient manner. If the milk has been
kept cool enough it will still he sweet,
but under usual conditions, where no
Ice is used, it will very probably have
j clabbered. If the milk has not clab
bered, ti will be more convenient to
1 put the cream where it may be kept
cold and hold it until a large churn
ing may be made. If. however, the
l milk has clabbered when the cream Is
'taken off. it will he hest to churn at
once, ('ream that is very sour never
makes a good quality of butter.
The quality of butter is due largely
to tlu? following points:
1. Temperature at which the cream
is churned.
2. Acidity of cream.
:!. How the butter is washed.
I. Working and salting.
These points will now he taken up
in their order. The churn should al
ways he scalded out with water be
fore il is used. After scalding rinse
out with cold water so as to bring the
temperature of the cUUril to that ot
the cream that is to be ''I""""".! The
temperature of time ream should be
such that the butter will come in from
thirty-live to forty.live minutes. If it
Comes in less time than thirty-live
minutes, there will he too much butter
left in the butter milk and the butter
is harder to wash clean. The churn
ing should stop when the granules ot
butter are the size of grains of wheat.
At this stage all of the butter has come
and it is easy to wash, for each grain
stands out so that the water can get
to it. If the (burning continues un
til the butter gathers into lumps the
size of hen's eggs or larger, it will be
impossible to wash the butter well, as
only the outsides of the lumps are ex
| posed to the water.
I When the butter has come draw off
the butter milk and add enough wa
iter to Moat the butter. The tempera
ture of the wash water should be
slightly below the temperature of the
cream when it was placed in the churn.
After adding the water shake the churn
so that every grain of the butter will
come in contact with the water. It is
best to wash the butter twice. The pur
pose of the washing is to get out the
butter milk. Too much washing will
destroy the flavor.
After the second wash water has i
been drawn off, take the buttjr out of
the churn and put on worker. While
It is still in the granular form add one
once of the best grade of line salt to
every pound of butter. Work salt in
With paddle or lever of worker, hut
never with the hands. The object of j
working is to bet out the excess water
and to distribute* the salt. Work un
til! the butter has a waxy appearance.
Too much wiking will ruin the grain
and cause the butter to look greasy. At
this season of the year very little if
any color need he used, but if color is
to he added, it should be put Into the
Churn after the cream.
