The HOG That Is Always Staple.

All admire a good-looRing hog, and
there is no reason why good looks
should not go with the highest useful.
ness. but neither good looks nor fancy
breeding should stand for a moment
in the way of the hog that combines
vigor of constitution, growthiness, and
reasonably early maturity with a form
pleasing to. the eye. When we come
to the final test of beauty, "pretty Is
as pretty does" The prettiest hog,
after all, is the one that is most profit
able: the one that makes the most
and best pounds of gain from a hun
dred pounds of the most inexpensive
drv matter: the one that makes the
largest contribution toward providing
for the family necessities: toward
meeting the interest on the mortgage,
and to paying the mortgage itself; for
the addition to the house, the new
CARPET, the piano or organ, the new
dresses for the girls, or their educa-
ton at school.
If the breeders of any breed depart
from the practical hog they make a
mistake for sooner or later the com
nonsense farmer will demand the
common-sense hog, and will waive any
preference he may have for particu-
lar color of hair, curl Of tail or droop
of ear If breeders Of any breed de-
part from this for any considerable
length of time farmers may say little
about it. but they will buy some other
breed that more nearly meets their

The Cotton Poll WeeviI.

Encouraging results are announced
by the Bureau of Entomology from its
recent careful examination TO deter
mine the present status of the boil
weevil. The bureau examined some
40 localities in the states of Texas,
Louisiana, Mississippi. Arkansas and
Oklahoma, all infected by the cotton
boil weevil. In each locality from
two TO five representative fields were
selected, and in each one of these
fields groups of plants were examined.
Estimating the number of plants to
the acre, it was easy then to compute
the number of weevils to the acre.
This plan has been followed for sew
eral years, so that the comparisons
can now be made with conditions eX-
listing in previous years. The number
of weevils is shown to be much small
err at this time throughout the infected
area than it was at this time last year,
due primarily to the unfavorable
weather last fall, especially the very
early first killing frost. In Eastern
Texas no weevils were found, whereas
last year there were 226 per acre. In
southern Texas the weevils stand 256
now, as against sos last year; in west
ern Texas, II against 10l. In Louis
lana ia of the insects were found as
against against ass last lear In Ok
lahoma no weevils were found. The
figures are for comparison only and
will not, of course. stand for the en-
tire season, as the insects may not
have emerged from Information in
such numbers as to have been detect
ed.

Meiba In Paris,

Nine. Melba has seldom received
such a remarkable ovation as that
which greeted her appearance at the
recent opera gala performance in
Paris. 1t cannot, however. compare
in delirious enthusiasm with one she
received some years ago in st. Peters
burg. On one memorable night, after
the close of the opera, she was called
before the curtain again and again
for more than an hour, until she was
so exhausted that she could scarcely
stand. Her enthusiastic admirers
then followed her carriage to the no.
tel, where they serenaded her, al
though it was a bitterly cold night,
until three o'clock in the morning. On
the following day when she reached
the station to depart the platform was
crowded with hundreds of adoring
music lovers. AS the train was leav-
ing they took the pencil with which
she had written her autograph for
all who could get near her, bit it into
small pieces and passed them around
IS souvenirs.

Bean Culture.

The raising of white beans is q great
industry in many sections and it 10
profitable, because the output Is a.
much staple as wheat or corn. Like
these crops it is a food stuff which
has keeping quality
The bean growing industry has
graVltated to the poorer lands, so that
but little of it is found in the corn
belt. And yet there are places in the
corn belt, and many of them, where
beans might be grown to advantage.
Sandy knobs or worn out fields which
will only make twenty bushels of corn
per acre will return a greater cash
product if planted to beans.
Bean culture was once considered
very laborious, but 1t is not neces.
sarlly so now. BY the use of modern
machinery it is made easy. They may
be planted with two-horse corn plant
er, cultivated with riding plows and
weeders, pulled when ripe, thrashed
and even sorted by machinery.
To make the most of the space the
hills mays be only six inches apart,
but the rows should be wide enough to
permit horse culture When planted
in this way and carefully cultivated il
the ground is free from weeds the
crop may be carried through by horse
power. But if the soil is foul one hand
hoeing will be needed. The crop is
loaded from the puller into hay racks,
and hauled to the barn. Spread upon
the barn floor or loft, it will be ready
for thrashng after two weeks of dry
weather. Before marketing sorting is
absolutely necessary.
The old plan was to get the family
together in the evening about the
kitchen table and each by handfuls
picked out the bad specimens. But
the modern bean sorter is a small ma
chine and cheap, which you may take
into any room. The motion is controll-
ed by treadle and a slowly moving
canvas carrier brings the beans to
your hand as fast as you can look
them over, one spry man doing the
work of five by the old system.

Stopping Washing on HiIIy Land.

Prevention is better than cure, but
there may be others, who, like myself

the ravines or natural run-ways and
found out too late that they never
should have been plowed Sometimes
On billy land a wash-out may start

a dead furrow. These washes leave

tried many ways of stopping a wash
sometimes with success, sometimes
with failure.
If the wash is a small one two or
three feet deep, it can be filled partly
full of brush, then straw on top, then
by blowing, throwing the dirt on the
straw, then sowing rye and June grass
seed, and if the rye gets a good start
before another heavy rain it usually
holds.

made of lumber so tight that there
will be no leakage, cementing it at the

outside. and long enough to extend six
or eight feet over the ditch. first set
ting a long post in the ditch for the
end of the flume to rest on, then NIL
in with brush for the water to dis
charge upon.
Another way we have tried with sue
cess is to thrash straw pie INTO tne
head of the ditch, then make a dam
around the head and down both sides,
seeding with rye and blue grass. IN
this way dividing water and carrying
It down on a well sodded runway
and by sowing rye and grass seed on
the slope of the ditch it may be heio
from getting any worse.
We have tried growing willows on
the bottom and sides of these washes
with but little success
The farmer with hilly land liable 10
wash should pillow and cultivate as
little as possible, keeping the land
in hay and permanent pasture, ana
keeping more COWS and more sheep
