VALUE OF PEDIGREES.
70 Obtain Best Results I'm Breeding
PedfefsxS Must be Studied
IntellisSntly. y

Only by the intelligent use of the
knowledge of pedigrees have the best
results in breeding been obtained,
and yet nothing has been. attended
with such disastrous results as the
pedigree craze. It seems quite i'm
possible for the average breeder to
know just how far TO 60 with the use
Of the pedigree.
He learns to study pedigree so as
TO derive the information he wants In
regard to what it means, and to note
the effect of blood lines in crossing,
and to determine what might reason
ably be expected from an animal after
the proper study of its ancestors.
Having attained somelittle success
along this line, a breeder is almost
sure to become intoxicated with the
pedigree craze, and then comes the
disaster, both in financial way and
in the breeding results.
No man ever yet made a success
who bred for pedigree alone; and, on
the other hand, no man has ever made
n permanent success who disregarded
1t. A pedigree should be valuable for
the purpose of showing the comming-
ling Of the blood which produces GER
tain results.
A well posted breeder soon learns
that certain families have peculiar
characteristics, and he may desire
just those characteristics, or he may
desire equally to avoid them. 1t is
unfortunate, however, that the study
Of pedigree frequently leads to the
use of an animal simply because it is,
well-bred. In no way is it more pos
sible to perpetuate certain undesira-
BILE qualities than by the use of WELL
bred, or so-called well-bred scrubs. A
thorough knowledge of families win
enable breeder to foresee certain re-
suits Of development in an animal
that is of great advantage in deter
mining its value.-Midland Farmer.

THEY'LL HAVE TO TRY AGAIN.
The TEXAS Boil Weevil Exterminatins
Reward Act Will Have to BE
RemOde1ed.

Entomologists and others, are max
Ing sport of the Texas legislature for
appropriating $4,000 as reward. for
any person who will discover a meth
cd for exterminating boil weevils.
There il good ground for criticism of
this act for the reason that it is pal
pably impossible for any person or
persons to earn the reward, though
there may be hundreds of claimants,
none Of whom can by any possibility
establish q valid claim. The reward,
remember, is not for exterminating
the weevils on an acre, or in garden,
farm, Justices precinct or even a
county, but for DISCRIMINATING the
boil weevil." No human agency has
yet been able to exterminate any in
sect that has become numerous and
naturalized. Natural canses may BAN
ish them from locality, and may in
the course of centuries exterminate
entire families of insects, but for
human effort to directly accomplish
such result would require the pro-
longed and active effort of every man,
woman and child in an the infested
district, which would be manifestly
impossible. If by means of the inven-
ton all the weevils had disappeared
from one entire county, and a single
pair should be known to exist hun
dreds Of miles away, the weevils
would not be exterminated. 1t is alb
solutely inconceivable that every boil
weevil on earth, or even in Texas can
be exterminated. except by some
change in natural conditions inimical
to their existence. The proffered re-
ward should have been for . success

Peruna has done for me.

brought on hysteria and made me

who advised me to try Peruna, and
promised good results If / would
persist and take it regularly. I
thought this was the least could
do and procured a bottle. / knew
as soon as / began taking it that 1t
was affecting me differently from

Earthworms Are Valuable.

Earthworms are valuable aids to
the farmer, as they work over good
deal Of soil. Every time a worm lie
driven by dry weather, or any other
cause, to descend deep, it brings to
the surface, when it empties the con-
tents of its body, a few PARTICLES Of
fresh earth. At the same time it fer.
tilizes the subsoil by opening up pas.
sages, which enable the roots OF
plants to penetrate deeper, these pas
sages being lined with excreted mat
ter, which provides store of nour.
fshment for the roots. On meadow
land Darwin found these worm-casts
to amount annually to is tons an
acre, and on good arabic land ia
about ten tons.-Midland Farmer.

for domestic consumption in the form
of compound lard, oleomargarine

ticles of food into which go the
products of the oil mills. This does
not take into consideration the fer.
