On good authority soldiers like best
to be officered by gentlemen, but they
have their choice of the type. Of the
right kind was Gen. Crawford, of the
Light Division An incident in his
career during one of the WelIjp gton
wars shows him to have been rich in
that Justice which commands respect
from equals and loyalty from infe-
riors; in word, he kept discipline
without regard to rank. His division
was crossing ford on one of the SPAN
ish marches and an officer, to keep his
breeches dry, rode through on a sol
dier's back. Crawford observed the
thing with disgust, and in minute
was splashing through the water after

shouted. Put him downi 1 desire

The Hog.

II we were to single out the domes-
tic animal most important on the farm
or the one which yields the largest per
cent of p-o1t it would be the hog. He
it is that converts all the waste pred
ucts into a merchantable article with
the greatest despatch and least loss
All through the winter the packers
demand for ordinary pork was steady
at a price that seldom fell below $5
hundred, when cattle and sheep were
selling slow, and though farmers were
sold short, such is the prolific yield Of
good sows there were no fears of the
kind of a shortage in this years crop
that occurs when animals that require
a longer time to mature are sold close.
Yet there is no animal that receives
less attention from the expert investi-
gators who are laboring to advance
agricultural interests, and many of the
problems connected with hog raising
are no nearer a solution than they
were twenty years ago. We know
that hog cholera continues to prevail
in certain sections, which we broadly
term the corn belt, but we have not
learned it's cause, though various
theories have been advanced. one OF
the most popular attributing it to
germs present in the soil of those sec
tions. heterogeneous foods and abund-
ant exercise are supposed to help by
developing a hardy constitution that
will resist disease, but the hogs of the
eastern states, born and bred in pens
with never a taste of pasture and fat
tened on western corn, never have
cholera.
In reviewing the work of the expert
ment stations and of the agricultural
department at Washington, as well as
that of private investigators. one is
struck by what appears to be almost
conspiracy to ignore the hog. The
hen also suffers somewhat from this
unjust discrimination on the part OF
experimenters, but her claims are be-
ing allowed and her fortunes are look
ing up.
Not SO with the hog. He is regard
ed as a gross money maker Of low in
stincts and grovelling habits that en-
tirely unfit him for scientific associa-
tions. Even pedigrees do not help him
much with disinterested observers, for
we are already hearing dire prophesies
about the breeding away of the fine
constitution that characterized the old
razor back.
Can we not find some learned in
vestigator who will make a thorough
study of the everyday market hog
and his needs and not leave us entire
1y to the guidance of hog feeders and
breeders who mean well, but who are
working for immediate results and not
for future generations of hogs? Let's
have more hog instruction from COM
petent advisers.

Instruction in Wax.

About ten years ago Secretary Brack-
ett of the Iowa State Horticultural So
ciety took up the work of modelling fruit
in wax and -coloring it to resemble as
much as possible the natural product
This work attracted the attention OF
the United States Department of Agri-
culture, which soon found opportunity
to place him in Washington at the
same work Since that time he has at
tanned a national reputation, his Work
being very true to nature. The wax
fruits of the department have been on
exhibition at several of the large expo
sitions, and have proven valuable OBJ
ject lessons. They have the advantage
over real fruits in that they retain
their form and freshness. By this
means all varieties of fruit can be
shown at any time of year. This is
especially valuable in relation to early
summer apples, and all the softer
fruits which would soon decay if ex-
hibited in a temperature comfortable
for human beings. This is method of
instruction that will be much used in
the future. The student of pomo1ogy
must have always at hand the pat
terms of that with which he wishes to
become familiar. 1t is probable that
our state societies will find it profita-
BILE to devote each year a small sum
to the accumulation of wax models.
Ultimately, the use of these will pass
beyond the bounds of the horticultural
societies and agricultural fairs, and
will come into use in our high schools,
especially those that are centers of
the rural population. Also the stu
dent that cau afford them will dud O
private collection profitable.

FRAN AND GARDEN.
MATTERS OF INTEREST TO AGRI-
CULTURlSTS.
Some Up-to-Date Hints About Culti-
walton of the Soil and Yields
Observation-Disclosures viticuIture and
Horticulture.
Point. on Tree Planting.

In planning for the arrangement OF
trees and shrubbery we must assume
that space is not limited, that there
are some roods of ground at least,
about the house to devote to the pur-
pose. And first, because comfort is of
primary Importance in the home, let
there be screens and clumps and belts
Of evergreens to the north and west
as shelter from the piercing winds
that blow from those directions. If
the house fronts to the south or east,
these may be quite near and form not
only a needed protection from the chill
ling blasts, but a pleasing background
for small deciduous trees and shrubs.
If, however, the house must face either
west or north their shelter must be
at a greater distance, but there they
should be if possible, and in this case
a thick screen little north of east
may be very desirable, for we all
know how marrow-chilling. catarrh-
producing and mentally depressing an
easterly wind can be. So let US plant
trees, preferably evergreens. upon all
sides except the south. leaving TINS
space open for the free sweep OF south
ern breezes, which are the prevalent
ones in the hottest weather, and so
welcome, especially at night, and which
are mild in cold weather; and also
to give free access to sunlight.
We talk of trees and vines for
shade, but when we stop to think OF
it, there is only a small part of the
year, seldom more than three months,
when sunshine is not a welcome vls-
itor in our houses. Then we will plant
our evergreens on the north, east and
west, leaving the south for the unob-
structed passage of hfe-glv1ng sun
shine and refreshing southern breezes.
Having provided for requisite shell
ter. we may proceed to plant our orna-
mental trees and shrubs; these may
be effectively massed upon the right
la..d left of grounds in front of the
house, leaving an open space for lawn
directly in front, for after all, is there
anything that adds more to the at
tractiveness of a place than a perfectly
graded, well turfed and well KEEP
lawn. The lawn should gradually
widen as it approaches the street, the
shrubbery massed so that the densest
part is near the house. the lighter
narrowest next to the street, which
should of course be bordered with
elms, naples or other trees.
In grouping shrubs be careful to
place the taller, more rapid growing
ones in the background, the smaller in
| foreground, as seen from both street
and lawn. Occasional handsome shrubs
| or we'll cared for flower beds may dot
the lawn, but none should hide the
house or too much obstruct the view
| from the front windows or verandas.

The Potato Crop.


A short time ago the experiment
station at Burlington sent out word
that the potato blight and rot threat
ened to do serious damage in Vermont
this fall. Later reports from the same
source say that the fears of trouble
were all realized, and that there has
been in fact a considerable amount or
loss already to potato growers.
The rot follows the late blight and
comes from the same cause. Those
who have late blight in their fields.
therefore, are bound to have rot; and
in all such cases special care ought to
be taken in sorting and storing the po-
tatoes for winter.
The experiment station still insists
that proper spraying, backed up by
proper cultivation, will protect the po-
tato crop from these diseases. Con-
tinued experiments and practical field
tests covering period of ten years or
more have proved this beyond the pos
sibility of doubt Even now, in the
latter part Of September, when most
potato vines are dead and many fields
of potatoes already dug, the expert
ment station potato fields are as green
and growing as any time in July or
August; and the potato expert claims
that they are making potatoes now at
the rate of rs to 80 bushels a week for
every acre.
Wouldn't it pay potato growers to
look into that matter?-Vermont Ex-
pertinent Station.
