In compliance with the provisions of
Chapter 2S2, of the Public Laws of 1903,
the State land agent is sending notices
to parties in Washington and Hancock
counties, who are holding permits to
pick blueberries on public lots, that
such permits are cancelled. The law
provides that the language timber and
grass" as relates to the public lots, So
called, in unorganized townships in the
State of Maine is hereby construed to
mean all growth of every description on
said lots. This law was approved,
March 90, and Immediately went into
effect. Heretofore the land agent has
been issuing permits to gather blue
berries on those lots, but he can do so
no more.
The BURBERRY pickers must now pay
tribute to the holders of the permits TO
cut timber and grass and cannot secure
the right to go on as they have done
under special permits from the State.

An Appreciated Correc
ton.
An

In the splendid special edition
of the New Orleans Daily States
recently issued, an inadvertent
omission was made of our Indus
trial Institute. That il was ar
oversight we arc persuaded by
the following editorial mention
in that paper OF Tuesday Ia t.:
Nor can we explain how it hap
pened that the Southwestern In
dustrial Institute at Lafayette
came to be omitted from among
the educational institutions of the
State. That institution is the re-
suit of Louisiana $ latest and ri
pest efforts at educational devel-
opment: it is located in the midst
of the richest and most pro
gressive section of the State: its
work is not eXcelled by any sim
liar institution in the South, and
it's opportunities for doing good
are practically bOundleSS. We
consider that no institution in the
whole country has u more magni-
ficent mission to perform, and
certainly none are going about it
with more earnest and Intelligent
zeal than characterizeS the work
of President Stephens and his
able faculty. In work of such
magnitude as that required in
getting out the late special edi-
ton mistakes and omissions are
inevitable, but it is greatly to be
regretted that such important adj
junct to the States progress
have been the victim.''

Lafayette, La, Jan. 20, 1903.
Editor Lafayette Gazeite:
In your last weeks issue, I
noticed that you have touched the
question of the old pond in Mills
addition. Not enough has been
said about it, because you could
not say too much.
Not later than Yesterday l
made an eye survey of the drain
age, and for hardly any cost it
could be done, removing a great
danger to the public health. Not
only the water stays in stagna-
ton, but all garbage is dumped
there, which makes it very sickly
even dead animals are seen
floating On the water.
Our City Fathers are doing
good work in town: let them not
stop, let them keep things going,
and a little attention in the direc-
ton OF that pond will make them
act.
We, citizens of that neighbour
hood are paying taxes for water
works and electric lights, and
neither we have, so for a little
consideration of few dollars in
work on the drainage Of that pond
will satisfy every one and all in
that neighborhoOd.
Thanking you for the space
given me in your columns.

HOW TO MAKE HOGS PAY.

The pigs should have dry, clean bed,
free from dust and filth.
The hog should find a place in the
economical management of every farm.
A SOW should never be confined to a
dry lot barren of all grasses and other
forage.
No difference how plentiful the sup
ply of Stops, the hogs should have fresh
water daily.
While dust in the bed Is injurious, more
may be said against dampness, which is
fatal to thrift.
Sows during CESSATION should have
plenty of opportunity for exercise to Sc
cure healthy pigs.
Before narrowing sows are the better
for an abundance of exercise; let them
have all they will take.
The hog to thrive best must be given
food that will build up the system even
ly. The bone, muscle and fat must main
tain Just proportions.
1t is hardly good economy to condemn
a sow for bringing a small litter of pigs
at first narrowing, as she may thereafter
always bring goodly number.
There is no advantage in especially
large litters of pigs. Eight or ten good
thrifty pigs from any sow will be of better
size and quality than a larger number
and she can suckle them better.-Farm

THE WORD OF GOD.
why the Bible Speaks with Authority
to the Christian Heart-A
Reasonable Faith.

Charles Darwin, being asked, In his
latter DAYS. whether science supported
the Christian faith in the beingof God,
replied that science presented PROBABLE
tiles both for and against it. and that he
deciding vote" had to be given by each
individual, according to his personal
makeup. Neither the being OF COD nor
the inspiration of Scripture, says the
Chicago Interior, can be proven as one
proves a problem in geometry. Moral
ratiocination starts not with axioms,
but with postulates; not with premises
which it is impossible to deny, but with
assumptions which men of exemplary
life are bound to accept. What il is inn
possible to prove to a scoundrel. it is I'M
necessary to prove to saint. The nor
NAL soul has its perceptions as truly as
the normal body. You DO not need ii to
demonstrate the beauty of the rainbow
to the unclouded eye, or the obligations
of virtue to the Heavenly mind.
To the Christian the Word is living
presence, from which he cannot escape.
1t speaks to him with voice exceeding
in authority that of any earthly state or
sovereign. 1t restraints his passions,
q GURUS HIS dDp0Nllto, lION6l ats MS WI
duct, forbids indulgeuces, and proffers
I satisfactions which are most real and
most vital experiences. He may not be
able even to define inspiration. but be re-
spends to 1t. He is not expert in ques-
tions of canonicity. but he knows the
flower by its honey. What be is, the
Bible has made him. 1t found him in
.'the slippery paths of youth" pursuin 6
pleasure, as Addison says, with heed
less feet" and it arrested him, turned
him about, and brought him up to
man."
He believes in the Word of God. more
over, because men he abhors Go not be-
lieve in it. He knows it to be the Word
of God, because the minions of the pit
hate it. He gives II the place of honor
in his home because il is licked out of
the saloon; he sends it forth with his
blessing because the gambler curses IL /;
he pillows his dying head upon its prom
ises because in every age every son of
Belial has FASTENED TO consign il to the
flames. Against faith so founded
raves of adverse criticism beat In vain.
Fhe Word of God rests not. upon tradi-
zion, but upon our hearts.
