Something to be Read.

The man who has travelled around
the world has d great advantage over
the one who has always stayed at
home. The travelled man or woman
knows what are the worlds great
scenes and what is the history of each.
He is at home anywhere upon the
globe, because he is familiar with it's
general story. But it so happens that
even in these days of swiftness and
comparative cheapDess of transit there
are Jew of the multitude who can go
abroad. 1t is hard work sometimes
to even make living at home.
1t is no longer necessary, though, to
go abroad to learn all about the world +,
how this place looks or that, and what
has happened anywhere. Modern art
and modern science have reproduced
all scenes. and an appended brief his
tory adds what is necessary to give
to the intelligence what is lacking
after the eye has rested upon scene
One need not go around the world in
the body. The STATESMAN affords
an opportunity to wander all over the
earth with the expenditure OF but d
few cents where otherwise hundreds,
or rather thousands, of dollars would
be required
The STATEsMAN's 800 views issued
in parts of 16 each form of themselves

which We live, at least of its modern
history. They are the best in exist
ence. They form the material fer

1t is worth the time of any reader
to study the advertisement mentioned

Swine Breeders Institute.

THE STATESMAN is i'll receipt OF the
following call for a swine breeders IN
stitute, which should be attended by
every farmer able to get there:
The Texas State Swine Breeders as
ISOLATION will hold its regular spring
meeting at Taylor, Williamson county,
February 10, 1894.
These spring meetings are held an
nually at different places in the state,
the date and place of which is fixed at
the regular fall meeting OF the assocl-
alton, the object being to discuss all
matters connected with the breeding,
raising and marketing of hogs and hog
nrodncts. and matters of interest to
farmers.
These meetings have already. done
mnch tn promote the swine industry
in Texas, and every year the interest
in them and the good they do is in
creasing. Everybody directly or lndl-
rectly interested in hogs is invited TO
attend and participate in the discus
sions.
If all of those who desire to attend
the meeting will send their names TO
the undersigned, designating their rail-,
road station and route, an effort VIII
he made to secure reduced fare.
All papers friendly to the efforts be-,
inr, made to induce the people OF
Texas to produce their own hogs are
requested to copy this article or to
give the time, place and objects OF the
meeting such publicity as they deem
proper. A. A. PTITuC M
Secretary, Dallas, Tex.
Now that Bro. Pittuck is secretary
ot the Swine Breeders association, THE
STATEsMAN's Haysee1 cannot refrain
from telling an ancient joke on him.
A number of years ago his little son,
Buell., was playing on Galveston peach
with some other little shavers. Some
thing was said about horses, when one
little fellow said: my papa knows all

is probably greater when bitten by a
hog than by any other. This is not
because there is an active, poisonous
glanI, with hollow tooth, through
which the poison is pressed. That is
the way rattlesnake bites, or rather
stings. The danget from the bite of a
hog may be vs. great as from rattle,
snake, but it is the danger from blood
poisoning, caused by carrying on the
tushes of the hog some poisonous sa-
Iva with which it's mouth is filled.
We call this saliva poisonous because
the hog is an indiscriminate feeder,
and not careful about getting parti-
Giles of dirt, or even of excrement of
other animals, with its food. It is
poisonous, just as are the scratches
from finger nails, which always leave
an lnflsmed sore, hard to be healed in
proportion to its abrasion of the skin.
This is because with each scratch of
the nail some of the dirt that always
gathers under it is brought into Con-
tact with the blood. A cut with a
clean knife heals more quickly, espe-
cially if treated at once with some
antiseptic and the air is carefully ex-
Guided.

Southern Darky Help ,

Our old time cooks are vanishing
with the education of the race in
other besides culinary arts, and
oftimes our "helps" are hindrances.
There was among our slaves tradi-
ton that "what longs to marse longs
to u.s." tradition, unfortunately, not
exploded with the loss of "marse,"
but well practiced in our stOreroom,
unless with "befo' the wah" regularity
we keep our provisions under lock
and key and deal them by the pound,
etc.
Our help count it relic of slavery
to live with their employer, hence
they have houses of their own, going
to "sarvice place" each morning with
regularity which depends largely
upon a watermelon festival or re-.
vival the night before. If water
melons and revivals are booming
cooks are scarce articles until the hour
of so, that frequently we have a
practical test of how many "beaten
biscuit" may be extracted from o
quart of flour.
Often, too, our maids go on ''scur-
sions,n leaving us the privilege of
homework as well. An experience
has taught us that two maids, with
our assistance are more desirable
than a cook. three kitchen maids, a
butler and a Eouse girl certainly
more economical. [ suppose nowhere
may be found more charming "home
queens" than Southern women and
none with more valuable experience
and intimate acquaintance with
household economy.
The days of "mammy," the days of
our trained and trusted servants are
gone, but difficulties are conquerable
and lack of service with reduced for
tunes is not fatal disaster to brave
Southern women.-New York Herald.

MAN OF REAL CULTURE.
THE MOST PROLIFIC SCHOOL is THE
SCHOOL OF DIFFICULTY.
Educated, Not schooled-He Knows How to
Appreciate the Britannica Offer
Of The Statesman.

nThere, u said an honest man yester-
dav as he wrote out instructions for

STATESMAN edition Encyclope ia
Britannica, sit will be one Of the
eventful days in the history of our
household when this library takes its
place as one of the furnishings of our
little home. / have always cove ed

to hope that it might some day be
called my own.

tages OF most mon, having beer taken

ment; 1 guess we won't have to bother
our neighbors go much now"
The speaker was, according to his
own words, a man deprived of school
ing since his 18th year, yet his CONVEX.
sation gave evidence of culture and
practical education not known to some
who have graduated from colleges of
the highest order.
This is but another illustration of
the possibilities of industry, even
when deprived of ordinary advan-
tages, and we are reminded that it is
not those who have enjoyed the ad.
vantages of colleges, museums and
public galleries that have accomplish
ed the most for science and art; nor
have the greatest mechanics and in
ventors been trained in mechanics
institutes. Necessity, 0ftener than
facility, has been the mother of inven
tion; and the most prolific school Of
all has been the school of difficulty.
The opportunity of a college educa-
ton cannot be over estimated, for the
seIf.nurtured desire for knowledge ia
of greater value to any man than the
Inheritance of scholarship in the
best educational institutions of this or
any other land.

Household Economies.

Household economy is ordinarily a
dry morsel, but one which may be
made as palatable, when favored with
strong will and brave spirit, as che
seemingly more attractive dish, house
hold lavishness.
To face life's real battles requires an
everyday hand to hand co1test and
invites heroism, tits true, yet there
are women who posses this virtue to a
wonderful degree, and in none is it
more thoroughly developed than in
IT, 9 women of the South.
A dire contradiction this to the still
prevalent idea that the Southern
women are ladies OF elegant LEISURE"
yet Southern woman declares this
fact, that their former grandeur exists
only in picture and theory, and their
present household economy is prac.
teal and successful part OF the every
day calculations-perhaps the M IRE
successful because of the very difficult
ties which reverses of fortune have
brought them.

Market,

Market.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 2.-McElroy
& Co. say:
Futures-The fact that receipts at
this point for Saturday, Monday and
Tuesday were known to be more than
double the same days last year,
seemed to insure beyond question a
lower market in Liverpool, hence it
was quite surprise to see that market
open rather better and close firm to
1854 higher than Friday:night. a.i srT
Spots were salso fairly Sactive, sales
aggregating 10000. The opening here
was tame enough at an improvement
of 2 to 3 points, but bears were eau
tious in view of the many recent re-
ports of exhaustion at interior points
and there was such an absence of any
disposition to sell that few buying
orders were enough to start an adj
vance, which gathered strength
throughout the day, so that at the
closing we find prices 70 points higher
than Friday.
Spots were very steady and ad-
vanced 1-Sc, with sales of $3.50. The
influence of large movement seems to
have been entirely discounted If we
are to Judge by the temper of all mar
kets; Every one appears convinced
that the interior holds less than at
this time last year, and relying on tina
conviction considerable long interest
has been created.

The Farmers Hand Work.

MANY agricultural writers are dis
cussing the old question whether
farmers of the present day can afford
to do themselves the hard manual
labor needed to be done on every farm.
The old aphorism of Franklin, that he
who would thrive by blowing must
either hold or drive, holds good even
vet. The farmer who either does not
or cannot give any attention to his
business must fail. But he can take
his choice of the work he will 40. Ii
he be a really good farmer he will not
do ANYTHING himself that an employe
can do as well or better.
In such a Job as understanding, Tor
example, the work CT throwing out the
dirt requires manly muscle, which can
be hired cheaper than most farmers
can do it themselves. But leveling
the bottom, fitting the joint and secur-
ing an even fall are points tnat re-
ouire skill and thought. 1t is on
these that the whole value OF the drain
depends. 1t requires skilled labor 10
do this kind of work, and though noC
so severe on the muscles as digging the
ditch it is more apt to be dirty and dls-
agreeable. 1t often also requires near.
ly as much time to bring the bottom OF
the drain to an even fall as 1t does TO
throw out the dirt down to the bot
tom. With each increase OF depth the
difficulty of working also increases;
So. though the farmer chooses what
seems 20 be the easiest labor, he is
pretty sure to be as tired at night as is
the hardest hand worker in his EN-
ploy. It is the same, too, with other
labor on the farm. The direction and
care needed to keep employees at work,
TO market the crops aud to purchase
what is needed to keep work going Is
hired man does. 1t is, however, labor
that has a great variety, and there
ore does not exhaust as does labor
which employs only the MUSCLES
