The white men here, holding as
 as they all do, clerical and ex- ecutive places, are 25 to 100 per-
 cent better paid than they would
 be in the states. Most appoint ments are made through the Civil Service Commission, and no one should come direct to the
 Isthmus to hunt job.
 The climate, which most people
 dread so greatly, is not at all bad.
 Average temperature about 80 in the shade-very damp and rainy at this season, but the sea
 breezes keep Colon Hospital cool enough to be comfortable. Sum- stroke. so common in American cities in summer, is rare here. I have not yet heard of d case. This is prob ably because the people take things very easily, do not stir around much at mid- day and are sparing in the use of liquors. Everyone eats fruit largey, and fortunately, oranges, lines, cocoanuts, bananas and pineapp'es are cheap and abund- ant, as they are grown here on the Isthmus. The orange and banana crops were about the most interesting things I saw on a recent trip across to Panama via the Panama Railroad. Health in general is very good now. Hardly any diseases exist excedt malaria, and it affects the whites bat very little. I myself have excellent health so far, and look forward to spending one or two years on the Isthmus very pleasantly aud profitably.

Letter to Mir. M. V. Lightburn
 Green Forest, Ark,

Dear Sir: Here's a story showing the results of having good paint and a good painter.
 E. F. Mcfarland of Normal, Ills,, wishing to paint his house, bought 15 gallons of Devoe lead- and-zinc Paint; and got his brother, a first class painter, to put it on.
 They used about haly the paint and returned the balance.
 L. J. Jackson Of Piper City, IlIs., painted his farm house this year. Bought IT gallons of Devoe lead -and zine, and hired Wm. Brown, painter, to put it on. Returned 4 gallons; good job. s. D. Culbertson & Son, dealers.
 Mrs. Lee of New Holland, 1lls., hired James Hughes. painter, to paint her house; got 15 gallons of Devoe lead -and zinc Paint; used only nine.
 Devoe is economy.

Panama, is still larger, being
 headquarters for Col. Gorgas and
 his staff, and there are smaller
 hospitals at five or six of the large
 canal towns. Culebra, one of the
 largest of the interior settlements and the headquarters for the Chief Engineer, is built on two rather steep hills-and the grades and curves of it's streets remind one of Eureka Springs. It is the highest point along the Canal.
 There are about 25,0OO colored laborers in the work here, most of them from Barbados and Jamaica; and they live in tents and camphouses, having left their families, most of them, at home. Their lot is perhaps not very pleasant but they have to work only eight hours a day, are not forced to work hard at that, and they get just as much as was promised them when they left home. MT. Poultney Bigelow, in the September and October cosmopolitan, states that the laborers were brought here with the expectation of receiving $1 60 per day in U. s. money. But I am informed by creditable people who saw the advertisement post ed ia Barba los, that the con = tractors offered them only SLIGO silver, or 80 gold. They are paid altogether in Panamanian silver coins, the largest having the value 50 cents, and being about the size of a silver dollar. They are called "silver'' dollars and the money of this place furnishes a strong argu- ment against silver as standard of value. American money, whether paper or copper is good anywhere. Panama dollars are not taken by any ship that comes to this harbor.
 The population of the Isthmus is varied-Chinese, Spaniards, Frenchmen, Germans, Jama ican negroes, Americans and natives. Colored people outnumber the whites, and in many places the color line is very faintly drawn, or entirely disregarded. The negroes, however, are courteous, good natured, and most of them religious. Not a few are educated to an extent which would be a credit to many settlements in Ark ansas. A great many places of trust ear filled by colored men and they compare most favorably with the whites in honesty and courtesy, if not in efficiency.

 WRITES OF PANAMA,

In response to request for an article about the Panama Canal and the Panama country, Dr. J. A. Warrington, who is in the government service on the Isth- mus has furnished us the follow ing interesting write up:
 Regarding Panama aud the Canal Zone, it is with much hesi- tation that try to put my impress sions in writing, as you kindly invited me to do. Much is now being published in the Magazines about the Canal, there is much interest being taken, and very properly, for a great work is be- ing done here. The Saturday Evening Pest of September 8 contains an article by Alfred H. Lewis, which should be read by every one interested in the Isth- milan Canal. There some main facts regarding the Canal are in- tsrestingly by set forth Briefly, the length of the waterway is 45 1-2 miles from Colon to Panama. Width and depth are sufficient to accommodate the very largest vessels, 150 by 45 feet at least Only about 15 miles are level canal, the remainder is elevated by three sets of locks, the highest being about 90 feet above the sea level, where the canal passes the divide at Culebra. Here the original hill was $50 feet high. About 15 miles of the route will be, when finished, a large arti- ficial lake to be formed by damning the Chagres River at a place 12 m l e s inland from Colon.
 : I have seen very little of the ac- tual construction and excavation work, and can only say that only negro laborers, so far, are being used. Of course, the en- gineers are using the latest labor saving devices, steam shovels and railway trains in excavating the cuts, and immense steam dredges for the part of the canal which is sea level. could say much, and nothing good, of Colon, the Spanish town near which this Hospital is located. Though in the Canal Zone, this town is under the native government, and it must have been 8 sorry sight when the Americans first took this region in hand. Even now, after our sanitary of tIcers, building contractors and street paving gangs have been at work on the place for over year, the purely native part of the town is filthy, overcrowded, poorly lighted district, like the neglected slums of large city in the states. In Cristobal, the American town, everything is quite different. Well built houses, c can macadamized drive, and walks, rows of fine cocoanut palms, and the close proximity of the bay with the sea breezes, made this a pleasant place indeed. Here are located a great many well to do Ameri- cans, with their families, and the towns of Panama, Gorgora, Culebra and Empire, all in the Canal Zone, are similarly built

Startinu Pure-Bred Herd.

There are apparently many pur-
chasers in the field, who contemplate
entering into the pure-bred swine busl-
ness and who ask about the best way
to get start. There are two distinct
methods and many warm advocates
for each. Some recommend that gifts
or young sows be purchased with a
boar for mating with them, and the
others that bred aows be purchased.
Both methods have advantages. Young
gifts that are sold as such are usually
the most growthy of the herds from
which they come. If they are not Sc
lected by the purchaser, the breeder
naturally sells the best first. The pro-
portion of good individuals that have
these fast growing qualities therefore
is likely to be largely in the young
Gilt group than in the lot sold as bred
sows. In buying open gifts, the mating
can be controlled. Bears OF such
conformation as would be calculated
to best mate with the sows should be
purchased. This is a very important
feature where one understands breed
ing swine, but otherwise this point Is
probably not of so much weight, as
results would perhaps be equally good
if the gifts were bred by the breeder
of them.
Many gifts are selected and pur-
chased when rather young and left
with the owner to be bred at the prop
er time. This gives the buyer the adj
vantage of getting the best gifts in the
herd and also at price which as a
rule, is not far from that of the open
gilt. Some men prefer to develop

with one that las never been handled,
that it will be almost play to teach
him to drive A sucking colt is a
vastly easier proposition to do any
thing with than a wild yearling, or 2
year-old, and not only does he learn
more quickly and more easily at that
time but there is also much less dan
ger of injuring him than there is when
one attempts to give the first lessons
to a colt after he has become strong
enough to make a tiresome fight
against restraint.

their own gifts to maturity and breed
them, but for the man who must
count his cash, letting the breeder de-
velop and breed them is usually the
cheaper way. Sows that are selected
after they are bred are better develop
ed as a rule and one can see what he
is getting. However, where gifts are
well grown when selected one is not
often deceived.
