Francisco Gorgia, aged 60, a New
York beggar, has stored a fortune in
Rome, having $4,000 in a bank. AL
though living in the greatest squalor, |
he has crossed the sea many times
to place his hoardings in safety. This
fact was brought out by his arrest
for vagrancy.
Jane Adams was aptly characterized
by a Philadelphia judge the other day,

as feels.
The famous surgeon, Sir Henry
Thompson, was called in early in his

applications for similar operations and

SOME INTERESTING FIGURES,


We give below some figures which
should awaken the southern farmer
to the necessity of cattle growing.
In the South Atlantic section, just
where cotton is the principal crop,
the increase is very low, and here we
are making the least progress IN
wealth and prosperity. In the south
central and western divisions the in
crease is 20 and 0j per cent, respec-
lively. And here is where the greatest
prosperity is found.
Study these figures and learn that
there is Llsrey in raising cattle

Chickens are a trouble and nuis-
ance, we all admit that; it is a both.
er to look after a penful Of pigs, to
roam the fields after young turkeys,
to try to keep calves within bounds:
and it is only when we do away with
the trouble and nuisance and bother
for a season that we realize to the
full their value. Two or three hun
dred chickens underfoot are apt to
try ones patience, but those same
two or three hundred chickens,
grown large and plump, adding to
the family, the market output, the
egg producing force of the farm hens,
veXing items of expense. The turkeys
bring their reward from Thanksgiv.
ing to Christmas, and, besides bounti.
full f~easts, yield the farmers wife
ready money which she finds very
convenient, and which causes her to
forget wearisome journeys to search
for stolen nests and to check rowing
propensities. And so with the pigs
and calves and many other things
which may seem a nuisance anC
bother. They are vital parts of the
complex necessities of farm life;
part of the cheerful, changing worl
which is so inviting to every ener
getic person who loves the country. 4

turkeys or calves or colts would b.

Dairy Helps.

L am glad when l see q young
farmers wife ready and willing to
take hold Of the dairy work and learn
the best methods herself, for there
Is nothing that requires scrupuloua
care and neatness more than milk and
butter. To have it good it needs daily
attention. A young house wife MAX
ing her first butter says it some
INES tastes old or peculiar, but that
Nshe is very, very particular and neat
with the milk crooks pans, etc. You are
not the first one, my dear, who has
had this experience. One of the
most noted butter makers in the blue
grass country told me she had this
complaint made to her by one of her
city customers, and after thorough
investigation she found that the trou-
bic lay in her having kept Il e cream
too long and had let the rich cream
get old before churning and it tasted
in the butter. One very excellent idea
sne gave me was that she since then
rinsed her churn, butter, firkins, pad
dies, etc, crooks, pans and all in n
weak solution of borax-water, so il
handled OF touched it could take on
no impurities. 1t kills microbes and
disease germs, disinfects and puri-
fies; hence there is nothing that
needs it more than milk vessels. as
milk and butter take on impurities
quicker than any other product,
Many gallons of cream and pounds OF
butter are spoiled because the churn
etc, are not kept immaeulate.--S. H.

FARMERAND PLANTER.
SHOULD FARMERS ORGANIZE ,


This question has been often an
swered. 1t is always answered in
the affirmative. Every one is willing
to admit that they ought to be organ
lied. Then why are they not organ
lied? No answer can be given to this
except that it is the force of habit
that prevents. They have been so
long pulling each man for himself
that they have learned to stand
alone. When the country was new
and the homes far apart there was
some excuse for this. But now many
changes have come. Population is get
ting denser, and there is necessarily
more dependence upon one another.
Competition is sharper. Opposition is
felt more keenly. The struggle for
existence is getting keener. All other
trades have not only felt the need
for organization, but they have or
ganized. And without intending it,
these organizations all work more or
less against the farmer. Self-preser-
walton and self-protection make this
resIlt.
Manufacturers combine in order t.
sell their goods at higher figures.
Merchants combine so as to buy
cheaper from the farmer and at the
same time sell higher to the farmer.
Now there is but one remedy left
for the farmer, and that is to COM
bine to protect themselves both in
buying and selling. The question of
selling did not use to formerly trou-
BILE the farmer. He was only con-
cerned to produce as much as posi-
bic. But now the selling is as i'm
portant, if not more so, than the pro-
duction. The truth that no man
liyeth unto himself is getting more
and more apparent as the facilities
for trade increase.
There are two great questions
which now confront the farmer
First. How can / produce the cheap
est and the best? Second. How car
l sell to the best advantage? In the
present complexed condition of affairs
no one man can sanely and satisfac
torily answer these. True combined
intelligence all is needed to answei
and keep these questions answered
rightly.
All great organizations are made
of numerous smaller ones. So tn,
only effective way will be for TIL
farmers of each community to ge
up small local clubs, and then thes
clubs must keep in touch with eacl
other. In the local clubs they ca
discuss the local conditions an
needs. They can decide what an
how much to plant so as to avoi
crowding the market with any singl
crop at any particular time. TIL
benefit of constant interchange {
ideas along these lines will be veI
great, and grow as the thing is kel
up. Such clubs. when well conducte
are real schools. Reading, hearin

sources of education. If to the

Property valued at s350,OOO lies
in mass of smouldering ruins at
Guthrie, Oklahoma, as a result OF
fire which visited that city Sun
day.
The fire started at noon in the
basement of the State Capital
printing plant, destroying the en-
tire equipment Of the paper. 1t
then spread rapidly to the Hotel
Capital, the St. James hotel, the
Richew general merchandise store
and the Cammack livery stables,
leaving them in ruins.
Oklahoma City, Perry, King
fisher and other neighboring cities
were called upon for aid, but the
high wind spread the flames with
such rapidity that the damage was
done before help could arrive. 1t
was feared the fire would spread
to another block, but this was pre-
vented by heroic work.
The loss to the. Capital plant
alone is 100000. Nothing but
the mailing lists of the paper was
saved. Work upon a new build
ing will begin at once and pending
its completion the paper will be
issued from the Leader plant.
All the property was fairly well
insured, but individual losses will
be heavy.
