A Pertinent Question.

Business men who complain that
people send their money away from
home for goods that can be had at
home for practically the same money
should remember that they, too, to be
consistent, should patronize home in
dustry and home enterprise. How
many of the business firms of this city
who are asking home people to spend
their money here are guilty of having
their printing done away from Shreve-
port? 1t is fair question. Shreye-
port Times.
And we venture the assertion that
the home papers can do the printing
of its business men as we'll and as
cheap as they can get it done else
where; and further, that they have
done more to boom and build up their
town and attract desirable popula-
ton to it than any other one influence
besides.

LOCAL PRODUCE MARKETS.
How Agricultural Towns Can Assist In
preventing CORNERS" In Produce.

Now and then complaint is heard of
now the large packing houses and
handlers of produce manipulate prices
OF eggs and poultry. These concerns
are enabled to do this through their
facilities for extensively handling
goods and preserving them in their
mammoth cold storage plants. Their
system Is to buy in the lowest market
and hold the produce until the demand
Is such that prices reach the top notch.
IL Is evident that were the business
men OF small towns to follow out to
some extent the plans OF these large
houses, the home market would be ma
terially improved. In the agricultural
towns merchants are the most exten.
sive handlers of farmers produce.
rms business is incidental to the mer-
camille business, and few merchants
nave proper facilities for the storing
and proper care of perishable goods,
therefore, Immediately upon receiving

obtain control OF the markets and to
manipulate prices.

FerreII's Dry Farm.

Gently visited Geo. L. Farrells big dry
farm near there. thus writes about il
in the Logan Republican,
"A sight worth going miles to see.
The dry farm OF ex-bishop Geo. L Far
rels, which lies just across the valley
consisting Of about 1900 acres. Here is
sight that once seen will never be for
gotten. The farm is on a gentle slope
and from the house one can see every
man on the farm at work. The ripen-
ing of the grain and the fields of lucern
present picture that NO pen can fully
describe. and all this without drop of
water, only natural rain fall which we
all know is limited IN this arid country
Ex-bishop Farrell certainly deserves
his untiring energy that has made his
farm what it is. AT first he had many
slumps but he never knew the meaning
of the word failure. He was scoffed at
for trying to raise grain, etc, without
water, every one believing it to be an
utter impossibility, but he proved his
theory and gained his point and has for
many years reaped tine benefits OF his
early and seemingly fruitless expert
ments Mr.. Farrell has just written q
book on successful dry farming, /"
which is now in the hands of the print
er. This work ought to be in the hands
of every landowner in America. We
have not told the tenth of this grand
view, or of the gentleman who helped,
with the aid of nature, to make it, but
we would suggest that every one who
can spare the time pay it a visit. We
are sure it will never be regretted.
The farm is under the management
of Geo Farrell, Jr.. who with his able
assistants. Mr.. and Mrs. Seal, will glad
ly welcome all and show them time.
Lovers of fancy stock will also be more
than pleased. for here can be seen the
pride of Kentucky, and beauties they
are.
Again we say, any one wanting an
enjoyable outing. coupled with worlds
of interest, see this farm,

are unanimous In the conclusion that the
generally accepted limitation of human
life ia many years below the attainment
possible with the advanced knowledge
Of which the race is now possessed. The
critical period, that determines It's dura-

the proper care Of the body during this
decade cannot be too strongly urged;
carelessness then being fatal to longevity.

Western Stock Show.

The premium list and rules for the
third annual exhibition of the Western
Stock Show Association has just been
issued and is being sent out. The next
show will be held in Denver on Janu.
airy 30 % inclusive. The premium list
is the largest ever issued. The associ-
alton is hanging mp $4,000 AMI the
specials amount to nearly as much
more, making very attractive COM
petition for the stockmen. This year
the show is to be national in character
but the association has provided some
special classics in breeding stock for
breeders west of the 102nd degree of
longitude, which is practically the east
erR boundary line Of Colorado.
Among the new classes Is one for the
best fat steer, fed and bred west of the
Goth degree of longitude and which won
first or second premium at any state or
county fair in 1907
Another special is for the best fat
steer under four years Of age owned and
fed by boy under eighteen years of
age, steers to have been the property OF
the boy for at least four months prior
to the show.
A feature of the horse division will
be the introduction of class for car
loads of range horses. Twenty head
will constitute carload and it is Elk
pected that the horses will be sold at
auction after the show.
The Western Stock Show has proven
one of the best educators for western
stockmen and to get full benefit from
it it will pay any stockman to enter the
competition The indications are that
the show next winter will be the great
est ever held in the west and arrange
ments are already being made to take
care of the animals in far better shape
than last year and next year it is ex

structed. Anyone desiring copy OF

pYsr zpTlc CARLYLE.
Physical Condition Which Affected
His Conduct Towards His Friends.

Carlyle, In ad lition to his other
troubles, was suff rGr from dysfep
STA. He was, therefore, anything but
sympathetic In intercourse with his
friends, anything but fir in his essi-
mates of other writer's.
Though Carlyle personally liked
Tennyson. he spoke with impotence
of his "cobbling odos;" dismissed
Jane Austen's novels as dish wash
ings;" Hallen, the historian, as dry
as DUST" and Goldsmith as an Irish
blackguard" Even the writer's of edi-
torials In the press were scored by the
irritable Sage Of Chelsea. What are
these follows doing?" he asked. They
only serve to cancel one another
A characteristic incident illustrates
Carlyles disposition to inflict pain
even on a friend. An artist, who fire.
quented the house of Carlyle, painted
a picture of him in his dressing gown
smoking pipe by the fireside, and
Mrs. Carlyle In an armchair sitting
opposite him. The portrait was hung
at one of the Royal Academy's exhi-
billions, and, though not striking
work of art, was purchased by Lord
Ashburton, Carlyles friend, for R500.
The delighted artist hurried off to
Carlyles. expecting congratulations on
the sale and some manifestation OF
pleasure on their part at having such
value placed on picture of them
selves and their domestic interior. He
delivered his glad tidings, but the only
response he got from Carlyle was:
We'll mon, 500 pounds was just 495
pounds too much"
Browning one day left copy of his
new poems at Carlyle's house. In
speaking OF this action to Tennyson
the next day, Carlyle broke out with
a savage snarl:

door,"
