Hogs

Grass makes thrifty hogs and
cheap pork.
Heavy feeding rarely Injuries
a hog. but feeding too much of
one grain may be injurious.
Avoid both coarseness and too
small bones in hogs. Neither is
necessary and both are objection
able.
Have good stock and give it
good care. 1t is meat, not fast
running, that makes a hog val.
liable.
Don't be satisfied to let hogs
have only grass to eat. Raise
other crops, such as peanuts, for
them. They will, make quick
and cheap growth.
Every Southern state could
have a strong swine breeders
association. If the owners of
various breeds OF hogs ere also
organized it would be good.
Hog breeders will prosper for
many years if they employ bus
mess ability in their work. More
hogs and better ones are sure to
be found in the South soon, aud
somebody will have TO supply the
breeding stock.

1900 per Cent. Profit

At a recent Cotton Association
meeting held in Starkville,
Miss, ID. a. Saunders told of a

ones shcared for 80 cents. five of

The new tangled style of spelling
 may cut an important figure in the
 new national campaign says a Wash ington writer. Communications go-
 ing from the president and executive departments to congress spelled pho
 netically, and when they are printed
 by order of congress. in the Record or otherwise, they will reappear in old fashioned English. The public printer cannot do the printing of con- gress in the Carnegie-Roosevelt style unless congress by resolution so directs. It is not to be doubted that some zealous friends of the adminis- tration's will introduce in senate or house such a resolution. Then Pan dora's box will be open, and there will be a debate fit for the gods and the laughter of nations. Imagine the smooth. oily. stinging. biting sarcasm of John Sharp Williams; think of the javelin thrusts and hammer blows of Ben Tillman; look forward to the pondorous arguments of Joe Bailey as to the constitutionality of through or thru. And when you think Of these things, does the suggestion that phonetism may become an issue be- tween the parties sound so shocking ly out of place? And if Williams and Tillman and Bailey attack the presi- dents spelling reform. will not Lodge and Knox and Spooner rush to Its defense? And what else. pray you, is required to create a political issue, than the giants of one party arguing for and the giants of the other party arguing against a thing.

Speaker Cannon's candidacy for the presidency is not taken seriously at Washington. The speaker is rec ognized as too wise a politician to risk his chances so far in advance of possible fruitlon, when he knows that many things may happen in the next year and half that, to man in his position, would wreck all possibility of success. Of course, he has an or ganization throughout the country which will come to his assistance at the moment it is needed, but his near est friends in Washington do not re- gard the action of the Illinois con- vention as anything more than com plimentary. If things go we'll for "Uncle Joe' in the next eighteen months, then he may permit some thing to be doing that will mean business. but otherwise he will be content to be the speaker of the house of representatives.

HOME RULE IS COMING.
Student Campbell Writes Interesting. ly of Affairs Across the Water.

London, Sept 1.-The quiescence
 of the Irish party in the house of
 commons since the overwhelming de- feat of the unionist party and the as- sumption of power by the liberals has been a remarkable and signifi-
 cant feature of the political situa- tion. Remarkable because 1t is difi- cult to keep your Irish member still
 when there is any game afoot, and
 significant because there has been plenty of good hunting.
 One thing is as certain as anything
 can be in politics: the Irish party
 has won a victory for Ireland. But
 the battle was fought and won at
 the psychological moment. This was
 when Sir Henry Campbell-Banner-
 man was campaigning in 1905. It is
 quite an open secret now that John Redmond at that time received an
 absolute promise from the present premier. Just what that promise was Redmond has never revealed, even to his intimates, but he has told enough to keep his followers quiet and make it possible for me to announce that within the next twelve months modified form of home rule" will be in effect in Ireland.
 This phrase, modified form of home rule," has become somewhat hackneyed, and is used quite ire Quently by political prognosticators who don't know what they are talk ing about. The fact is that control of Ireland's domestic affairs will be placed in the hands of Irishmen- elected by Irish votes. In a sense, this will be a parliament; in fact, 1t will be board, or commission. The ques- tion of the church will be eliminated, and 1t is hoped that educational Ques- tions will be arranged between Prot estants and Roman Catholics so as to effectually prevent that religious clash that has so far prevented any thing that bore even the semblance of peace and good will among men in Ireland.
 l am, in fact, informed that the agreement has already been reached, and that the Roman Catholics have promised to keep hands of, receiving in return certain concessions. At any rate, the new day has dawned for and country that has been cursed by discontent and confused by the haze of misrepresentation will become the best part of the United Estates that have run down through neglect and poverty will be restored. and the Irish people | who have left their own land to seek l their fortunes in the west will turn their faces once more to the little | green island where the sun of pros- perity is shining.

Full Qddll ly president of the United States should devote the re- sources of the government to the pre- cipitate, indeed peremptory promul- gation of a new form of etymology Is, we confess, something that we were not prepared for.-New York Sun.
 It looks like a piece of ingratitude to a distinguished publicist that no sooner should Calvo be dead than the doctrine of which he was, if not the inventor, the foremost expositor and advocate in the international forum. should begin to be known by the name of another. It may be true that the adoption of the doctrine by the Argentine minister of foreign affairs, Senor Drago, gives it an international standing which it had not before. But that is no reason why the prior claims of Senor Calvo should be ig- nored.-New York Times.
