Why Not, Tobacco Men,
Editors Progressive Farmer:

Editors Progressive Farmer:
Sure, why not cooperate with to-
bacco users? There are millions of
tobacco users at the North, chewers
and smokers. While you growers are
wailing like a Dutch orchestra about
prices, and President Adams recon-
mends this, and President Graham
advises that, and the Burley men
publish resolutions, and some
else advises planting smaller crops,
and the Trust threatens to buy land
and grow it's own tobacco, and the
smoke of the conflict ascendeth for
ever and ever, the Smoke and Spit
Trust goes on cutting prices to you
and boosting prices to the consumers
and piling up millions wherewith to
subdue both producer and consumer.
Now, why don't you sell your pro-
duct directly to the consumer? Can't
your farm societies, Alliance or
Grange, or others, manufacture the
chewing and smoking tobaccos, and
sell direct to the through
their Alliance, Grange, or other So
cieties?
1t is a poor grade of smoking to-
bacco you get here for 20 cents the
pound, but tons of it are used. The
average farmer here doesn't know
what good smoking tobacco it. Isn't
the natural leaf fit to smoke2 Must

Economy and Good Judgment in Far
ming.
Editors Progressive Farmer:

Editors Progressive Farmer:
Good Judgment is necessary in ev-
orv department of life's work, but
Nowhere is it more so than on the
farm. The old-fashioned shid-shod
methods of farming are fast giving
AWAY. and none too soon. 1t requires
more thought and business judgment
TO conduct a farm successfully, than
almost any other enterprise with the
same amount of capital. Different
seasons require different cultivation
and different treatment, and the far
mer cannot tell what the season will
be. and his wits are often strained
to know just what to do for the best
results. Hence his good judgment
has full play.
Economy also plays ar important
part with the farmer; not only econ
omy of means, but also of time. He
should use all his moments to ad-
vantage. There comes so many frag-
ments of day that a great many
farmers are in the habit of throwing
away. A purpose to s all of these
will amount to a considerable sum
in twelve months. Add to this waste
of time the many things which a
great many farmers let go to waste
that could readily be turned into
money, and yet add to this, the cost
Of useless habits such as smoking.
drinking. ETC., and the amount in
one year would surprise you. And
the difference between these wastes
and care and economy is the differ
ence in a lifetime in poverty and a
competency. Good judgment, econ
omy, industry and poverty does not
go together. You can have one or
the other but you cannot have them
all.

Get Rid of the Mosquito.
Genesee Co., Mich.

The March Bulletin of the North
Carolina Board of Health contains a
very practical article on "The War
Against Mosquitoes" The outlook
for this seasonNis encouraging, it is
there written, on account of the Sc
we're winter just passed, for the rea-
son that usually very few mosquitoes
succeed in getting through the win
ter alive. 1t is a we'll established
fact that mosquitoes innoculate
their victims with the germs of ma
laria, and for hal reason their ex-
termination is important. The fol
lowing extract from this excellent
article will prove of interest and
value:
Gas is alreadyswell known, mosqui-
toes breed only in still waterproof
ably small stagnant pools protected
by grass and underground from the
wind, and free from fish, which prey
upon the larvae. 1t is now also pref
ty generally known that a thin film
of oil upon the surface of such wa
tiers will prevent the laying of the
eggs there, and effectually destroy
any larvae that may have Matched
therein. The problem, therefore, is
a very simple one theoretically, and
in most instances practically also.
1t is summed, up in this sentence a:
Drain, fill up or oil (every ten days
or two weeks) every body of stagnant
water, no matter how small. Empty
all old discarded fruit cans, buckets
and barrels about the premises, and
| put them under shelter or turn them
upside down; drain, if possible (if
not, fill up or oil), all natural pools
open bitches and small wet-weathe1
streams, to permit the running of
and prevent the reformation of the
pools so often found along their
courses. Larger ponds stocked will
fish are not so favorable as breeding
places, for reasons given above, pro
vided no shadows protected by grass
bullrushes, cat-tails, ETC., are permit
ted on their borders. The banks o.
such ponds should be made as clear
and abrupt as possible, so as to ex
pose the entire pond to the wind am
fish. But some man will say: VIII,
take this trouble, when there is
swamp within a mile or half a mil,
of my house? For the reason tina
fortunately mosquitoes rarely eve
fly a mile or even half a mile. If In
stead of laying the mosquitoes on tn
distant swamp the householder woult
make a careful inspection of his i'm
mediate environment, he would near
ly always find the source of suppl
to be within a radius of two or tire
hundred yards of his house-as i
pointed out in DR.. Towards book o
