Secretary Wilson of the department of agriculture lately expressed surprise that some of the farmers of the coun- try had not gone into drug plant culti- vation. The United States last year bought $64.OOOOOO worth of drugs and dyes, and he states that nearly every dollars worth of 1t could have been secured from plants and weeds grown in the United States. Camphor, which is now SIPS per pound and gives prom ise of being $2 next year, is controlled exclusively by Japan. Camphor trees grow and will do well in the warmer sections of the south. Licorice, which is imported to the value of $5OO,OOO to $1,00O000, will grow as far north as Pennsylvania, while paprika pepper, native of Hungary; belladonna, wormseed, poke root, golden seal and a number of other native weeds may be cultivated with greater profit than many of the staple farm crops, as the demand for them Is steady and ccp- stantly increasing.

The postofice department has lately brought to earth in an Illinois town batch of grafters who were getting fat off the sale of dope at dollar q bottle which, they claimed, would pro- duce potatoes without vines at cost of cents bushel by soaking the seed in solution made from it. People who will bite on bait of this kind have been, are and always will be the natural and easy prey of sharks and swindlers. If they don't get skinned with one game they are bound to fall victims of some other just as raw and idiotic.

The state of Minnesota has paid out $500,000 in wolf bounties during a period of thirty-six years, but in spite of this effort on the part of the author ities to protect the live stock interests of the state the number of wolves seem to be increasing rather than diminish ing. The conviction Is growing that, in- stead of serving as an incentive to ex- terminate the pests, the bounty is look ed upon as graft for lot of shiftless woodsmen and hunters, who so manip- ulate matters as to have a steady source of income from the business. It Is thought that if the bounty were removed entirely those suffering the most from the inroads of the animals would undertake the destruction of the brutes without any bounty incentive.

A mellow and golden old age, an estate which we all prize and love and hope some day to attain unto, is merely the harvest time of lifelong cheerful ness, kindness and sympathy. While these, clements are to, an extent inher- ent in the soil of human nature-tem- perament and disposition-the harvest blessing from them can be greatly in creased by painstaking care and culti- vation, a line of endeavor that is at once inspiring and accompanied by most satisfying results.

The department of agriculture annu- ally spends $11,00O,000 to carry on its far reaching and useful work, and with the employees who will be added to its working force under the new meat inspection law the total expenditures are likely to exceed by good deal the figure named. With the employees named, in addition to the increased force required in the work of exter- minating the cattle fever tick and the gypsy and brown tailed moths and the investigation of dry land farming, the department will have a payroll of 6,OOO persons, whose average salary is less than 5000 year. Over 100000 pieces of literature are distributed each year, and this amount will be largely increased as new lines of investigation are taken up. Judging from what 1t has already done in the past and is carrying out in the present, the future work of the department would seem to give promise of possessing a greatly enlarged scope and practical useful

It consists of weed burner carrying long kero- sene torch which extends the entire distance between the rails and to the grass line on either side.

As a people we are only just walk ing to the enormous loss that is annu- ally sustained through hauling products to market over poor roads-a loss that Is none the less real because it is one that is usually taken for granted. A speaker in Missouri good roads con- vention recently made the statement that farmer can get to town over good roads with a thirty dollar load of produce with less wear on horses and wagon than he could with a ten dollar load over poor roads, With good roads he holds that time required for marketing produce would be reduced two thirds.
