In speaking Of this breed the A'ae1caa
AgricAawea says
No breed Of pigs has sser been raised IN
this country which ha, met with such IN
iversal favor a. tho Berks Americans
are good judges "a PORK In all 10 various
forms. and the pig BIAS an important place
on sll our farms. Wherever farming -
cond ucsed on money making principles,
With bus.ness snsp and push, the improved
breeds find there way. We have found
that the Berkshire improves all other
breeds. Crossed with gsunt acorn eaters
and root erubbers Of the woods. their pro-
geny proves scarcely less good a. forsgins
for their own living. while they are larger,
quicker growing. easier kept, and have lar
ger hams and sides Of bacon, while the
fine flavor Of the semi-w wild dana remains.
Crossed with common pigs, the improve
ment is great Crossed upon large sows
Of such breeds - the Reds, Chester Whites

breeders have, il seems never favored par
ticulsrly the very large Berkshirs. They
are not 80 good for The use We have 1.-THE
males. namely, crossing with lower gra--
de OF swine. Still, tendency to breed
small and fine would be mistake. This
breed Is naturally large one. and Should
be maintained Of at least medium size.
Within the memory OF the writer, the
characters Of Berkshiers have greatly
changed. White fecks. splashes. and ev-
en- large spots we're not only admissible,
but almost universal, and red hairs and
spots we're often seen on excellent animals
They had, as . rule, much more white

Of the exhibition pig has diminished con-
siderably, at least at the East. The fact
is, there are better formed breeds than
the Berkshire, but none that combine SUI
oh rare excellence Of flesh with superior
form, strong constitution, and great pre- ;
potency in importing especially fine gu
Atty Of flesh to its offspring, together
with rapid growth and reasonable ecou-
omy in feeding. We think that packers
can afford to pay more for pigs having a
Berkshier cross than for any other on ac-
count OF the quality Of the hams and ba-
con. This is also the general opinion OF
the trade, and numerous resolutions OF
breeders and packers associations have
been passed to that effect, from time to
time. In this connection it is well to bear
In mind that Poland China breed owes
its good qualities chiefly to the Berkshire,
which it so much resembles in color, tex
ture Of hair, length. size Of him, and per

The much talked of Blair edu-
cational bill passed the U. S. Senate
on the 4th instant, by vote of 36
to IL. The political complexion of
the vote was as follows: For the
bill, l6 Democrats, 20 Republicans;
opposed, 8 Democrats, 3 Republi-
cans. The bill goes to the House
with almost certainty of its being
adopted without serious opposition.
1t has been shorn of all objectiona-
BILE features, and all talk about
Federal interference with State
affairs is simple bosh. The amend
ment by which the States were to
submit their text books to the
Secretary of the Interior failed to
go through, and the bill is exactly
what it purports to be, an offer of
aid by the governments to assist
the cause of education in the States,
the boards of education already in
existence In the various States to
have control of the money given
for that purpose. It is to be APP
propriated on the basis of illiteracy,
and as matter of fact the South
will be the recipient of a lions
share of the bounty. A proviso is
made for the distribution of the
funds between white and colored
schools, as has been customary
since the freedom of the slaves,
and In every way we think the bill
will prove acceptable and benefi-
cial to our impoverished people.
Under the stipulations of this bill
will receive for the next
eight years about s95, 900 annually |
tor purposes Of education OF this
we estimate that the aver
age apportionment for Grant parish |
will be about 1897 so each year.

SAUCE FOR THE GOOSE.

/
| Desiring to comment further on
the letter of Auditor Steele to our
sheriff, recommending the post
ponement until June of the sale of
the L. & p. railroad lands for nom
payment of taxes, we asked Sheriff
Goode to let us have the letter for
publication. He declined to let us
have it, on the ground that it was
a private communication and not
proper subject for publication. We
differ most positively with the
sheriff in this matter. If letter
from one official to another official
instructing him to perform an off,
cial act is not proper subject for
publication, then we would like to
be informed at what kind of official
documents the public are entitled
to have squirt Like the great
President of these United States,
we suppose our sheriff has right
to his private papers" but all the
same, we imagine, individual tax
payers will feel aggrieved at being
forced to pay their taxes, while the
individuals composing the railroad
company enjoy comparative i'm
munity.
We understand the Auditors
reason for showing the railroad SO
much favor is that the company
expects to be able to pay up in a
few months, and what the State
wants is money, not lands. In
other words he fears the lands will
be adjudicated to the State for
non-payment of taxes. which will
entail an inroad into the revenues
to pay costs, etc. This is all very
well, looking at it with view to
save the State or the company, but
we are satisfied the Auditor is
wrong both as to the equity of the
case and the protection afforded
the State. In Grant parish there
are dozens of men ready, willing
and anxious to get chance to buy
some of these lands, and every
dollar of the taxes due could be
realized were it ten times as great.
The same thing, we doubt not, is
ihe case in the other parishes. At
my rate the law gives the railroad
40 such respite, and we hold that
n tax collecting what is sauce for
he goose ought to be sauce for
he gander.

The Lake Charles Echo began
it's eighteenth volume last Satur-
day, with the following neat sem
tence: "The changes of time, the
vicissitudes of life, a retrospect of
the past, and the prospects of the
future, all conspire to make this an
opportune time to address our
selves, particularly to those friends
and patrons who have supported
us by words of commentator, ex-
pressions of sympathy and SUBJ
stantial evidences of a hearty
of our efforts in the
past" We hope the friends and
patrons of our confrere will con-
time to "conspire" against him
and his excellent paper until his
pockets become uncomfortably
full of shekels.
