THE WORLD NOT so LARGE.
Remarkable Meeting of TWO Men Who
Had Travelled Much.

A noted New York anthropologist
who might write letters enough after
his name to cover half title page
had an experience in dining-car not
long ago which convinced him that
once in while you do find the needle
in the haystack.
The herr doctor-explorer had spent
a long season in Baffin land back in
the SOS. In the course of his work
he made a long journey into the bleak
interior of Cumberland and peninsula.
At the head of one particular toilsome
valley he built little cairn, inclosing
a note.
At the next table in the dining-car
young man was recounting dog
sledge journey in the far North A
familiar Eskimo name soon made the
doctor prick up his ears. The young
man was describing his route and the
succeeding landmarks brought up the
old journey in the listeners memory.
Presently the teller reached the point
in his story of telling how he had
spent three days trying to find a FEAST
BILE pass across a mountain range.
Young man." the doctor broke in,
eff you had taken the narrow valley
on the right, one days journey back,
you'd have come out on the other side
after heavy work"
81 did go back to it at last" the
story teller said when he got his
breath. You don't mean to tell me
you're the man that built the cairn up
there ?"-New York Sun.

The Bacon Idea.

Prof Thomas Shaw: In our judy
ment no more important question con-
fronts the growers of swine to-day.
The operation of breeds is only lit
tie pigmy compared with the gigantic
question of lard and bacon swine. 1t
means more to the country than many
shall ever know. Millions in our judg-
ment are bound up in it, since it
bears directly on the stamina OF swine.
upon their prolificacy, upon correct
methods of feeding swine and also
the soil, and upon providing for man
the kind of pork which is most to his
liking. But do not look for the bacon
idea to prevail in this country, as it
does in Canada or Denmark for many
years to come, if indeed ever, especi-
ally in the corn belt. 1 do not, there
fore, plead for the bacon idea to cap
ture the British bacon market as those
countries have, but rather because Of
what there is in the idea for us. My
contention is that we can grow bacon
pork more cheaply pound for pound
than we can grow lard pork. And
when we do grow 1t we have a super
ior quality of meat. We can grow
bacon more cheaply because swine
thus grown are more prolific, they are
less liable to diseases, and can better
resist disease when it comes. Such
pork is more relished by the consumer
and will eventually command higher
price and the notifications necessary
in growing it will have a beneficent in
f1uence on the industry and on the
maintenance of fertility in land.

Results of Ignorance or Greed.

Natural woodlands are better regu-
lators of water supply than are dams,
reservoirs and bitches, and, besides,
they are much cheaper. Moreover,
intelligently cultivated forests can be
made steady sources of wealth, where
as irrigation works and levees are
perennial causes of expense. There
are men who cannot understand that
more crops can be raised If proper
proportion of land is kept in forest
than if it is cleared and cultivated;
there are others who do understand,
but who prefer quick profits to slower,
though more permanent gains. For
such perversity there is no cure other
than legislative assertion of the great
er rights of the whole community
or the restraint of individual selfish
ness and ignorance by law.-PhiladeL

Bacteria and Flavor.

The great difficulty with most butter
makers is that they do not com
prehend that it is a certain kind OF
bacteria that largely controls the fla
yor. Even cleanliness in every sense
of the word does not always result in
milk souring with the best flavor, as
ALL COWS are usually MIXED in the
stable during the winter months and
in a real warm barn we usually find
that the putrefactive bacteria are
found in abundance. These get into
the milk while milking and contain
mate it before it reaches the cream
ery. A maker cannot tell by the taste
or smell just how the milk is going
to sour.

The Farm Hen.

The farm hen is one of the import
ant factors of the farm, though she is
generally neglected and sometimes
forgotten. The writer knew of one
poor hen that was SO far forgotten
that when an open space under the
house was closed up to keep out the
winter winds biddy was made a pris-
oner. She was not missed from the
flock, or, If missed, was not looked
for. After about six weeks a noise
under the house attracted the atten-
ton of the residents and an investiga-
ton revealed the poor hen, still alive.
but hardly more than skin and bones.
Scattered about were 10 eggs. On
the day of her Imprisonment she had
gone under there to lay, and,
after depositing her egg. had
found the exit closed. She had ap-
parently laid most Of those eggs after
the time of being imprisoned. 1t
seemed almost unbelievable that she
should have lived so long without food
and water. Perhaps she was able to
find a bug now and then, for the pris-
on was not entirely dark. 1t Is
strange, too, that she could and did
recover from her emaciatiOn. This
shows the hen in the role of slayer.
There are few animals on the farm
that can endure the neglect that the
hen gets and still prove profitable.
What will she do if properly taken
care Of? The farm hen is the most
potent factor in the creation OF
poultry products. We read about the
enormous quantity of eggs and fowl
flesh consumed in this country year
by year. Let it not be forgotten that
the farm hen is the chief producer of
these, the hen of the specialist cut
ting a small figure by the side of her. 4
