fact that green peas can not be cxceled

Putting Up Wool.

Put Il up in good. honest shape
That is the only way for the produces
to put up any thing that he sends to the
market. There is no profit in putting
poor fruit at the bottom and handsome
fruit at the top of the package. We
tell you that there's 20 profit in il.
however much any belly may think
differently. There is NO profit In put
ting up wool in dishonest practices. IL
is "A solemn fact that there is no profit
in it. A writer of a red-hot article in
a contemporary on the subject closes
by saying that there is line OF
honesty for wool-growers that should
be demanded by themselves because it
is right. And the fact that WOOL
buyers pay a premium on badly put up
woods, does not make il fair and foncst.
The manufacturer is the injured party.
and what damages him damages the
wool-growcr more. The wool-buycr
is an irresponsible shark, a parasite
upon the wool-grower's business. Adj
nit he is a sort of necessary evil. ii he
stands in the way of common honesty,
as between the grower and manufact-
urer OF wool. he is a nuisance and both
parties should understand the situation
and agree upon a remedy-a basis OF
clean wool and direct dealing with each
other in an honest, Straightforward
manner. There are honest wool
growers and there are honest wooden
manufacturers. and they can certainly
meet each other on this basis satisfac-
torily. One thing is sure: this dishon-
est way of putting up wool is damaging
to wool-growers and ought to find a
remedy. and that remedy has to come
from honest methods and fair and
square open transactions. They are
possible, reasonable and right.
Then instead of classifying from re-
gions known 10 be clean and free OF
sand. or from regions notorious for
heavy wool by reason of a peculiar
soil, sand-storm. etc, it might be upon
the honesty and care of the grower.
His trademark would be known in the
market and sell accordingly. Any
man that would pat his name
on his wool sacks or sack would
sell better than without it. And three
or four years of such marking would
give him a reputation worth something
in the market. Such move with even
one sack of wool would stand out
mighty quick from the ordinary, and
he be paid for his carefulncss. not by
the average wOol-buyer but by the
honest manufacturer. Try it once, and
again, and again and see. Try it with
the manufacturer. not tho country
wool-buyer. He has nothing to gain
or lose often, at least he has a way OF
averaging the good and the bad to suit
himself, and the careless against the
honest wool-growcr. Honesty is the
best policy, and if we can't see it We
are surely beginning to feel it with
much force. National Lice Stock Jour.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

To enrich land thatts poor. We
must have manure or its Equivalent In
vegetable matter. or apply plant food
in some shape to induce the growth Of
vegetation.
"A good force-pump. with which
the orchardist may apply insecticides
early In the season and thus prevent
loss from insects. is one of the requi-
sites of the reniunerativc fruit farm.
For growing stock. clover is better
than grain. Clover contains moro lime
for the production of bone and more
nitrogen for the production Of flesh
than corn. A liberal allowance Of
bulky food is always best for young
growing stock. Grain should only Ike
given once day. and sparingly. oats

Strawberry Pie.-Pick over and
cap the berries. arrange in layers in a
she'll of pastry. and sprinkle with n
good coating Of sugar. Fill the shell
very full. rs strawberries shrink very
much in cooking. Cover with crust
and bake. Other berry pies can Ike
made in the same way. using sugar &C
cording to the sweetness ssf the berry.
Except for bects and mangels,
which thrive in hot weather. no heating
manure should be used for root crops.
Turnips. carrots and parsnips are bet

WATER FOR PIGS

ious Or Contagious Diseases.
Investigations Of the swine plague
show that. of all farm animals. swine
more than any other should have pure
water from = well. The micrObc pro.
ducins the dread disease Of swine
plague may be carried in stream OF
water; hence it is unwisc to allow hogs
to drink from a stream. though fed by
springs. if hogs. are kept under bad
conditions anywhere above on the
stream. The microbe may lie in moist
matter for months without having its
vitality impaired. hence it is folly to
allow hogs to drink from stream when
disease has prevailed within some
months among hogs anywhere on the
land from which water enters the
stream above. The danger is SO great.
and may SO suddenly or unawares make
its appearance. that it IS never wise to
allow hogs to drink from stream. The
danger from stagnant water il rs great.
While the microbes can find their way
into it from only limited territory.
such water always contains organic
matter. making conditions favorable
to the life Of the microbes. and they
may exist in it, with evil power unim-
paired. for weeks or months Aside
from this. stagnant water is unfit to be
drunk; pools, ponds, ETC.. are far
oftener an injury than benefit

face water is allowed to enter it, theirs
is as good a chance of its being tainted
as there is Of pool being tainted. Nor
will the passage Of the water through
few feet of loose soil filter out the
disease germs. '.Seep" wells are oftc n
the unsuspe cted cause of disease; there
are many cases of their being proven

we'll. to be safe. must be fed by an un.
