MIKE YOTR OWN MEAT-

Practical testimony in behalf of the
wisdom of THE GAzETTE's agitation Of
the profit in hog raising is not wanting,
and it cannot be out of place to repro
duce the testimony of a well-known citI-
zen who knows whereof he speaks:
MI. J. D. Farmer, leading farmer and stock
raiser in this county, in conversation with a GA
zErTE reporter yesterday, talking of stock gen
orally, stated that his brother and himself had
raised hogs in this county for years, and had
met with the greatest success.
CAS- to making Bacon said he, 81 did not
know what Northern bacon was up to five years
ago, but made all my own and some to sell
nv neighbors on my farm. I have never
had bad luck with it, and have cured my meat
by the old-fashion sailing and smoking process.
1 find that meat cured by that process much
sweeter and superior in every particular to the
meat that is shipped in here from the North.
have now 100 fine, fat hogs on my place, and in
tend to make all my bacon and lard
next winter. l have now at home canned meats
that are as good, If not better, as can be had
anywhere. find by sad experience in cattle
that for the capital invested that there is more
in hogs than there is in cattle. I am surprised
that the farmers in this state do not raise their
own hogs and make their own bacon. have
been offered within the last week s.. 70 per hun
dred for my hogs, but I viii not takeit. prefer
TO hold them until fall, when I viii have no
trouble in getting s. for them"
"What is the best hogs for this climate?''
asked the reporter.
~ have three breeds on my place, - said Mr..
Farmer, 1.-the Berkshire. the Poland China and
the Jersey Red. I find that they all do well, but
1 am inclined to the opinion that a cross between
the Berkshire and the Poland China is the best.
The Berkshire is the best rustler that can be
found. and the Poland China is one Of the best
fesh-producers 10 be found. The cross partakes
OF the good qualities of both and none of the
bad, If they have any bad qualities, and are
easily fattened. -
''What feed is the best for theme

to all other It natures a hog quicker and gives
a better flesh than anything else I have tried
TIE GAZETTE is right in agitating this question

THE recorders court has daily oppor-
tunity to purify the moral atmosphere
and elevate the social status of the city,
We are inclined to think that as rule
justice is too lenient-paradOXical
speaking, for, of course, exact justice
can neither be too lenient nor too severe.
Penalties for all the crimes that come
before police courts should always be
ample. 1t IS the police courts that feed
the higher courts, the petty criminal that
develops into the atrocious one. Moth
ing so purifies and cIeanses a city from
lawIessness as stern justice. Recorder
Kerns can do the state and city some SER
vice by innictIon of the severest penalties
upon every violator of the law brought
before him, and public opinion will sus-
tain him in it. The city viii be safer,
better, cleaner and more prosperous, for
drunken Ioafers and evil doors will find it
more congeuial to live elsewhere.

THE Fort Worth GAZETTE says the water at the
mouth of the Brazos ''grows deeper and
deeper" Evidently THE GAZETTE has not
talked recently with the masters of little
vessels that have occasion to use the water at
the Brazos. Perhaps THE GAZETTE does not
want to talk to this sort of witnesses. No; THE
GAZETTE does not want that sort of testimony.
-TGalveston Tribune.
THE GAZETTE certainly would not seek
testimony in Galveston concerning deep
water on the Texas coast. The people
of this state have been officially notified
that it Is Galveston or nothing with
Galveston papers. No; we do not want
your testimony-we want deep water for
Texas.
