Alcohol and Tobacco.

While the passion for alcohol burns
more strongly in the savage than the
civilized naD, the foudness for tobac-
90 seen,s to be equally shared by
both. The tranqu'Iizlng effects Of
smoking are chiefly concentrated
upon the musculomotor and the Cir
culatory functions. 1t depresses. in
fact, those qualities of the organism
which arc Of least immediate impro,
lance to the student Or the votary of
any sedentary pursuit; and if by a
vice we mean a habit which initiates
against the social usefulness of the
individual, then smoking must be
regarded as more of "a vice in the
savage than in the civilized man, in
the hunter or warrior than in the poet
or philosopher. The moderate use of
tobacco is certainly less injurious
than that of alcohol unfortunately,
excess in The former is less immed-
lately productive of disagreeable or
dangerous effects than excess in the
latter. Hence the limits Of Mo,lcra.
ton can not be so easily assigned.
DR.. Parkes allows that smoking may
occasionally be of use,thoagh never
really necessary, to the healthy
adult. Dr. Richardson condemns it
utterly.--Lonlon Academy.

The first large importation of Span

States was made by the Hon. VIM.
Jarvis, our consul at Lisbon, in 1909
and 1910.
Sixty bushels of corn aud four tons
per acre of clover hay, were among
the products of IL farm in Tangipahoa
parish during the season of 1876, and
this by an amateur farmer. Seventy

butter from Jersey cows, at the same
place.
The planting Of cane by small
farmers in Louisiana and Mississippi,
has become 80 general, that IN many
railroad towns molasses of an excel.

cents per gallon. The sugar produc-
ed by the same persons has been 20

The old slipshod fashion of allow.
ing cattle to starve in the woods, has
not proved very profitable to our
farmers during the past winter. Stock

ny have fallen victims to the extreme
cold, or starved to death. Moral !:
Keep less cattle and better ones, aud
feed them.
Goats are the poor mans cattle.
They cost nothiBs to keep, while
they afford u bountiful supply Of
meat, milk and excellent fertilizer.
A friend writes that he intends

Orange growing is being carried on
