AT certain times in the year, ana
particularly a month or two berore tho
CHRISTMAS holidays, books come
lnto newspaper Offices for review ia ster
man any n man can possibly read
ana review them with justice either to
himself OF the books. He glances
through them hastily, unless they are
oy noted authors, gets a salient poirt
mere and there, and WRITES them up,
as best he can. Then he foryets all
about them.
"A friend came to me one day and
expressed his qualification at the way
In which l had written up a new novel
oy a comparatively unknown author"
SAID the literary editor of a Chicago
paper.
''You expressed my idea Of it ex-
actly', he said. 1T is one of the remark.
able books of the year. The plot is alb.
solutely unique, the treatment of it is
bold and original, and the dialogue
crisp and delightful. 1t will make a
great hit

all that, I'll read it"

Butter in the south.

A skilled Northern dairyman who
vent to Georgia some years ago once
wrote that he found that he could
make as good butter there as he made
in Vermont, could make it at a lower
cost and could get a better price for it.
When once the livestock industry is
well established in the South in con-
nection with cotton growing, we will
o 0 hear less of it's taking -four or
five acres to make a bale Of cotton,
for the men who rotate their crops
and feed stock and make manure will
soon put a bale as the minimum per
acre. More pea hay, more corn and
more cattle will do more for the cot
ton farmer than anything else, when
they cease to look on everything but
cotton merely as supplies to enable
them to plant more cotton, for they
will find that the supplies will soon
be as profitable a part of their farm
ing as the cotton.

Varieties of potatoex.

In choosing varieties of potatoes for
spring planting. it is advisable to select
those that have been more re-
Gently produced from seed; provid-
ed, of course. that their quality and
productiveness have been tested and are
generally known. The variety that is
newly produced from seed is gener-
ally more vigorous than it is likely to
be after a few years contest with po-
tato beetles and the blight and rots,
all Of which help to decrease potato
vigor and productiveness. But it Is
not advisable to plant potatoes, how
ever good, which are very unlike stand
ard sorts, and whose qualities are not
generally known. There is so much
difference in potatoes hat the mere
fact that a potato is a potato is not
enough with most consumers to secure
a market for it until after they have
given it q trial.

Discussing pistols as duelinc weap

OF a man who had the reputation of ar

once began to rail at duels with pistols
He could not bear even to speak OF
them. The fact was that he had once
himself at an encounter of that kind
received a ball in the shoulder.

Too Much.

There rome times when the desire
md need for a vacation are quite over
balanced by other things. When Mrs.
Hanson had nursed the children OF
B~erryville through an attack of scarlet
fever. she resisted all suggestions from
grateful parents that she go off for u
months rest at their expense.
NO" she said, with weary firmness,
"Iim obliged to all, out / haven't got
strength. l could either get ready and
stay at home, or I could go without
getting ready but l couldn't do both
anyway in this world"

short Rotation Of Crops.

Every FARMER realizes The value of q
short rotation of crops in maint. l.
ing the fertility of the soil. Yet it
is not at all to seed to timo-
thy and clover and % the field for
three or four consecutive years till
every vestige of clover has disappeared
and nearly all the value of the clover
plant as a renovator of the soil is lost,
says a writer in Ohio Farmer. be-

Hog Cholera.

For fourteen years we lived in. a
sandy portion of northern Nebraska.
At that time We all confidently con-
graduated ourselves on the fact that
hog cholera would never gain much
Roadway on that kind of soil. All the
time we lived there we lost a
hog with cholera. This year reports
from there indicate the loss of a large
per cent of the crop raised, with the
disease still unchecked. 1t seems, after
all, that hog cholera is no respecter of
soil OF climate. No one had better brag
