Two Typical New Englanders.

Thomas W. Small, of Winnegance,
Me-, is without doubt, the oldest man
in the state who has worked in the
bayfield, day in and day out this season.
He was 95 years old the 10Th of March,
He cut the grass on over three acres
Of his farm, in the orchard and along
the lodges and creek, with a hand
scythe, and there was not a load hauled
to the barn that he did not in some way
assist in making. He did up the loads
while the boys were hauling in. He
had a crop of 43 loads.
Nelson E. HOLSTER, who owns
farm in the Allentown district, few
miles from Bristol Center, Conn, is
hale and hearty at 80 years and says
that hard work never did him any
harm. He did his haying this year
without the assistance of any outside
help. He moved II acres of grass
himself, shook the hay, loaded it on a
cart and put it into barn all by him
self. He says that he isn't any the
worse for the work and next year when
haying comes around hopes to do
more.-New England Farmer.

community are always subserved when
law and order are carefully observed
in the righting of it's wrongs Fire
arms are always more or less question
able and dangerous resorts which
should not be used except in extreme
cases. A hasty shot, fired without
cool consideration, has often brought
lifelong remorse We do not counsel
the "whizzing charge of cold lead" un-
til all other remedies have been vainly
applied.
Let the farmers of New England
who have a majority voice in the sew
era1 state legislatures if they choose
to raise it, make up their minds to
have prompt and adequate legal pro-
lection for this reviving industry which
promises SO much general good. Let
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1906-10-31

them show their determination in their
town meetings so that their representa-
tives shall fully understand what is
expected of them along this line. The
right man will know what to do and
will do his part. But if the legislatures
are filled up with lawyers who make
their living on individual and COM
munity difficulties how can we look for
laws which shall tend to harmonic and
untangle?
The legislatures of New England
have shown their willingness to pro-
tect wild animals for the sportsmen;
the right kind of legislatures, approach
ed in the right way, will not refuse to
protect and promote, by any legiti-
mate measures, an industry which may
mean so much for all Our people.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1906-10-31

will be much appreciated and sought
after when better known.
The ever increasing love for these
gorgeous flowers should lead to a
good, impartial trial of varieties, and
the selections of the best and most dis
tinct sorts should be made known, in
stead of legion of confusing names
and descriptions, with only few very
ing shades of color.

legitimate Means First.

We have persistently advocated the
keeping of Sheep both for profit, which
may be derived from the wool and the
increase, and also as a source Of sup
ply Of fresh meat. The greatest draw
back in the way of sheep raising are
the innumerable worthless ours which
infest the land. Dogs which show
plainly that they are half starved all
the time. If one of them gets taste
of mutton, he will not forget it and
soon teaches others to follow his ex-
ample. The New England Farmer
prints an article which shows that they
have the same trouble in that part of
the United States No doubt the
editor is correct in advising legitimate
means in preference to shot gun, but
there are times and places where no
other remedy will answer the purpose
A New Hampshire correspondent,
writing to commend the attitude of the
New England Farmer on the subject
of sheep killing dogs, adds: "A good
remedy which has proved most reliable
in our town, and which has caused
several dogs to abandon their destruc-
tive pastime is this a whizzing charge
of cold lead somewhere among their
vltals. Best time to administer, while
they are doing mischief"
Following this rather savage utter
ance, as if to justify it, come reports
from Maine, New Hampshire, YER
mont and Massachusetts of further
fearful slaughter of sheep by dogs. At
the Maine state fair, prominent sheep
breeders declared that the dog is the
very worst foe of sheep and that un-
less something is done to check his
ravages, the whole industry in the state
will be ruined. Sheep raisers all over
the country are awaking to the same
truth, and in some states laws are be-
ing enacted for the preservation of this
important industry.
We can fully appreciate the state of
mind indicated by our correspondent
grim advice; but the New England
Farmer believes the best interests of

overcrowd each other and thus suffer.
From pots they may be transferred to
the open ground, being previously
hardened off somewhat by being placed
in cool frame for short period and
as soon as possible in spring.
Many and numerous are the named
varieties now offered by various firms,
but none seems SO taking to the Amer
lean public, as far as my experience
goes, as the old dark-howered form of
Oriental. There are many and various
shades of this type, but the deep dark
scarlet seems to be the one most in de-
mand, with P. bracteatum a good
second
Some years ago I saw flower of P.
o. var. Mrs. Marsh very distinctly
feathered and blotched with white on
each petal on rich crimson scarlet
ground On securing plants from the
same source and Towering them for
three successive years they turned out
each time nothing but good types of
P. bracteatum; and yet I was assured
last summer, in England, by one of the
foremost growers of hardy plants, that
the true type was to be had, but often
the first year it did not show it's real
character
Papaver orientale var. Mahony rails
ed in Holland, is very deep mahogany
colored flower, of good size and sub
stance, and as free Towering as the
type; and where a distinct change of
color is wanted this can be highly
recommended as really good and
mer1tor1ous variety, if such stock has
been propagated from root-cuttings or
divisions
T. o. Princess Louise Victoria. as
seen growing last summer, is also
very decided acquisition, very free and
late Towering, perhaps not so large
lowered as some; but it's freedom of
bloom and its beautiful rose-colored
flowers make it both attractive and de-
sirab1e.
Another very distinct form which i'm
pressed me very much, was P. O. Ladv
Roscoe, with attractive orange or terra

DR.. Pierce's All Healing Salve is
cleansing and pain relieving. 1t de-

The 0All-Healing Salve is superior
dressing for all open, running, or sup

open wounds, cuts and scratches it is
unsurpassed.

30 cents in postage stamps to DR.. R. V.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y, and you will
receive it by return post.
In treating all open sores, or ulcers,
boils carbuncles and other swellings, it
Is important that DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery be taken persistently
to purify the blood and thereby remove
the cause of the trouble. It is in the
blood that the great battle of health has
to be fought. The ulcer and the sore
are simply the scarlet flowers of disease,
with roots running down into the blood.
These roots must be eradicated or the
disease will break out afresh. vGolden

of all foul and poisonous accumulations,
pushes out the dead and waste matter,
and thus purifes the entire life current.

GOVERNOR SWANSON

The elevation Of the Hon.ClHude
A. Swanson to the governorship OF
Virginia is the happy ful6llmeni
of long-cherished desire on the
part of the present Chief Execu-
tive of the old Commonwealth.
Mr.. Swanson while sanvassing the
State for this high honor, repeat
edly stated that in early life, while
yet a young boy on his fathers
farm, he conceived the laudable
ambition of one day becoming the
Governor of Virginia. Through
out the struggles incident to a
circumscribed youth he pursued
the path laid out for himself, and
though privations and labor and
suffering attended him, he never
lost heart, but followed always the
headings CT noble ambition.
For years Mr.. Swanson repre-
sented a Virginia constituency IL
the National House Of Repressn'
tative. His record is known and
read Of men, and his fidelity tt
his people in that position 10 bu
an earnest Of his larger usefulness
in the exalted position he~nov
occupies. That he will adorn thu
Governors Office is not questioned
and that he will give the people
elem and business administrator
is equally certain.
