William L. Curtis Tells Story of Port

Half way down the Red Sea, on tho

where the pilgrims for Mecca. who
come by sea, land. 1t Is distant about
siXty-fve miles from the sacred city
of the Mohammedans, has population
of about 10000, an imposing and at
tractive appearance from the sea and
is surrounded by funny looking Dutch
windmllls. which pump water from
the artesian basin under the sand.
But the moment you land on the shore
the illusion is destroyed. The streets
are narrow dirty and full of all kinds

Jiddah is of particular interest to us

where she was buried. but it is com

relatives to know that she was $40 feet
tall-a very large woman to be Gre
atcd from n single rib. According to
the tradition OF tie Moslems, when
our first parents fell from Paradise
Adam landed on mountain in Ceylon
and Eve was unfortunate enough to

When Eve died Adam buried her
at Jiddah. Her tomb is a cenotaph
40 feet long, built of masonry about
four feet high and narrowing to a
point at the top. 1t is white washed
and kept quite clean. Pilgrims place
flowers upon it and reverenly kiss

Sturfe Pigs.

Sometimes these are caused by an
inherited disability to make use of
the food given them, but probably
more often by conditions after birth
If they are watched it will be found
that the other pigs are driving them
from the tcats and later from the
trough, says Farmers Review. Having
once become weakened they are less
able than the other pigs to fight for
their food and have to be satisfied
with short rations. 1t is evidently a
part of the plan of nature to eliminate
the weakling as a breeder. However
these same pigs, if given a chance al
the teats and the trough, often deyel-
OPP into good sized hogs and prove
profitable. We would not, however.
advise using such an animal as q
breeder. The hint that nature has
given us should be taken. We agree
with her in wanting for breeders only
the most vigorous.

Some Of these may be very profit
ably taken UP by farmers as we'll rs
gardeners, advises Rural New Yorker.
In some localities the farmers follow
this course to such an extent that it is
hard to tell just when farming leaves
of and gardening begins. 1t is a good
practice, and the small farmers are
often able to turn as much clear money
mtwo or three acres of sweet corn, cab
bage, horseradish or like crops as from
their entire regular crops. 1t would
he time we'll spent for many farmers
fayorably located to plan for some of
these crops. There is easily SO to
800 In an acre of sweet corn proper
" managed, and more than that in
horseradish. With the latter crop
nearby markets are not so much of an
object, as it will stand storing for
high prices and hauling or shipping
to any distance. The sweet corn, how
ever, is an entirely different matter,
and without easily accessible markets
at the canning factories or the larger
cities for immediate supply the grower
viii very likely get caught. Cabbage
also is worthy of attention as it may
De easily stored to await favorable
market opportunities or long shipment
If necessary. So there is no reason
