and Wales we are again in London

A stormy Voyage.
We crossed the channel at Stranraer,
landing at Larne, Twas night and storm
ing, and the boat rolled like a bucket and
for couple of hours there was very little
conversation. After landing at LaTne We
had forty-fve minutes on a train to Belfast
and the little cars wriggled about like a
cork on the Irish sea. so that when we were
at our hotel there were reasons for being
thankful
We liked Belfast. II is clean and a brisk
business city, representing the industries Of
Ireland. The distilleries are very extensive
and well worth visit; the rope works, the
greatest anywhere-and wonderful; the
linen weaving and manufacture of muslin
and wooden prints is very interesting, and
the embroideries and lace very artistic. and
all alive and going ahead with quickened
interest, which is an indication OF Ireland's
progress.
The fine embroideries are done almost
wholly IN the homes, and under conditions
that would dishearten an American girl who
had her living 10 make. for the little
"shacks' In which most OF Ireland's poor
abide have none OF the necessities. not TO
speak OF comforts OF home. from an Amer
lean standpoint. The wonder of Il all is
that such beautiful work can be done IN
der such adverse conditions. But, thanks
10 some OF England's most noble women,
there are movements on foot TO improve
these conditions. Schools are being estab-
lishel all through the east and south OF the
island. where the girls can be more properly
taught and may do their work under more
favorable circumstances.
Life in Dublin.
Dublin Is a sort Of Washington city for
Ireland. and when Parliament Is in session
II gathers together there it's beauty and
its chivalry.' and II is said that gaelty
neigns supreme. During our stay We turned
our attention to the city itself and found
Il satisfactory. The river Liffey cuts the
town In two. and The public buildings, which
compare favorably with any In the King
dom. are on either side OF the stream Tha

lost, except the number Of the motor car.
When we were fairly out of the hill I'VE

a smiling colleen" and were soon on our
way to Cork.
Activity of Cork.
The county OF Cork certainly lives up to
ones expectations of Il and seems to be
rolling in plenty and improving in many
ways. The whole county OF Cork is under
one government the city of Cork being the
center and the lord mayor the head of the
town council 1t is the best lighted town
In the kingdom and has a splendid street
car service, from which we concluded that
the two members of Parliament from Cork
represented their constituency tolerably

date town. Queens college, overlooking the
sea. has an imposing situation. The build

reference to their religion. and embraces.

An Irish Kitchen.
We drove out TO Blarnev, and while
others OF the party explored the castle and
sought the far-famed stone. l walked about
the village and sought an opportunity TO
get a look into a real typical Irish kitchen,
which is the whole thing when one speaks
OF an Irish home.

highly educated and also knew from
their ancestry before them how to
conduct farm and household, includ-
ing meat preserving. but they are
also educated enough to show a
readiness to try new ways and adopt
new plans if perchance some might
be found better than the old ones.
My friend said, "Come and see my
new cold storage cellar" We walked
out some two hundred yards from
the house to a small bluff on a
spring branch where he showed me a
room some sixteen feet square in the
bank and some five or six feet under
ground. The side and top walls are
lined with inch plank, and so is the
hall or passageway some six feet
long out to the front completely
ceiled and saw-dust packed behind,
and having an outer and inner door,
both close-fitting. In this room was
pumpkins, squashes, apples, Irish
potatoes and sweet potatoes, etc.
Now, if we would all provide similar
cold preserving rooms, there would
be cooperation in providing plenty
to eat for home use and some things
to sell. They believe that the farm
err should scientifically understand
his business, and that he should take

and meats for family use end enjoy

How to Hold Cotton.

Messrs. Editors 1t seems to me
that every cotton planter should sign
and obligGte himself to sell his cot
ton through an agency composed of
stockholders in every county. Let
the gin be the place for storing the
cotton, and every man who stores
one or more bags of cotton be a
stakeholder. Allow every man who
wants to sell his cotton to sell to this
agency at the ruling price at the
time of sale, or to store and borrow
money as he chooses, but in no case
to allow a bale to leave the gin cX-
cept through this agency.
There are usually enough farmers
at every 2,in who can carry all the
cotton rinned 1T that gin with their
cCtt.'n as a margin; and, If they
ned help. these arc the mon who
can always get it. The cinncrs and
merchants (the ginners especially
should take stock in this and those
who arc able to hold are compelled
to carry those who are not able to
hold.
And what will pay better than this?
Surely every man who makes a bale
of cotton will agree to put his cot
ton into this agency, or to sell to it
for the same price that he could get
outside. Then the combination would
only be the agencies or gins. and we
could get an exact report of what
we had, and if all was not taken. we
could cut so much per cent at every
gin and hold over the balance on
next crop. The cotton can be stored
and insured at the gin cheaper than
anywhere else, and then we would
have all the cotton and would be no
risk at all. and there could be no
market outside.
I know this can be done. I think
it would pay now to carry the cotton
on hand back to the gin and act on
this plan. These are my views; |
have not seen them EXPRESSED: SO
you can publish them if you think
they are worth publishing.

A Little Talk About Cooperation.

~ ANob "SSN I'LL DuSlH0SS |
with a neighbor not many miles from
my home, and on driving up to his
mansion, L found him busy storing
his pork meat away. Having about
forty head fattened this fall, it will
be see that neither his family nor
those who work for him expect to de-
pend on Chicago fat-back" meat
this year. While we talked by the |
clubhouse used for butchering and |
storage purposes, his wife appeared |
at the door, and after kindly greet
ing, suggested hat / was "just in
time to help with the sausage" Step
ping into the meat apartment I was
surprised to see rows of shoulders
and hams and sides nicely trimmed
into form and cut into shape for
"fat-back," breakfast bacon, ETC., in
clearinghouse style. as | could see,
for l have viewed the process of
handling hogs, cattle and sheep from
the pens clear through the process
to the shipping room of the pack
ing plants at Kansas City, ST. Louis
and Chicago where the cured meat
starts off to the consumers, and have
tried to practice at home what /
learned there.
Here was the pile for sausage
meat and a helper turning the cut
ter. and beyond this the fireplace, a
| big kettle and another helper dry
ing out the lard and preparing the
feet for "pickled pigs feet" The
barrel was ready for the picked pork
| and the salt and sugar for packing
the joints.
After awhile the woman, whose
hands were greasy-the lady of this
household-took up a paper and,
reading. gave directions for weights
of meat. salt and seasoning which
made the work intellingently easy.
I~nnocently | asked, "What paper is
| that. Farm and Home!" She said.
"No. sir. it's The Progressive Farm
er. and we often see your articles
in it." This brought to my mind
the article on "killing Hogs for Ba-
con-" by T. X. Bruner, Secretary
North Carolina Board of Agricul-
ture. in The Farmer and Cotton
Plant. November 10Th. / remember
ed it as being elegantly written,
plain and exhaustive on the pork
curing subject. l viewed the work
going on here and thought how many
families may be benefited by that
same article and how much good 1T
may do. There is truly enough in
it TO remunerate a whole years sub
scription to the paper.
1t is indeed intellectual co-opera-
ton, and this is the first step to "all-
round" cooperative business. The
intellect must imbibe correct infor-
nation about things, and that Paves
the way for the will of the industri-
Gus to carry out work in harmony
with such acquired knowledge. Fol-
example, if the article referred to

BASEBALL.

teen-Inning Game--Prides Beaten by
St. Thomas--other Notes of

the Diamond
The most interesting game that has
| been played here since the reign Of the
old Donaldsonville Prides was wit
messed at Cleveland Park last Sunday
when the Pelicans of Donaldsonville,
and Jefferson College team, of Con-
vent, tied up in thirteen-inning con-
test. The locals were first up and
crossed the plate twice on a hit and
couple of errors. The college boys
put one across in the second, another
in the fourth and added one in
the sixth. The birds managed TO tie
the score in the eighth and then there
was nothing doing. The locals had
beautiful chance to win in the
twelfth inning when there were two
men on bases and nobody out, but
the necessary hit was not forthcoming.
In the thirteenth, Nargassans, pitcher
for Jefferson College. got one TO his
liking and raped it out for homer,
bringing in man from third and
winning his own game. Another
collegian crossed the plate after
wards, bringing the score up to six.
The birds tried hard to do some
thing in their half, but the odds were
against them and the game went to the
college boys. It was a pitchers bat
tile from beginning to end and while
the support accorded them was not
errorless it was all that could be rea-
sonably expected of amateurs and no.
body had any reason to kick for the
lack of interest in the game.
