THE BEST REMEDY.

While there is much about the sub
ject of tuberculosis that is not yet
known, enough has been learned to
prove beyond doubt that the malady
is in many cases induced or aggrava-
ted by the close confinement of human
beings and animals in stuffy and i'll
ventilated houses and stables. Pure
fresh air, which may be had for the
breathing, is natures great antitoxin
for pulmonary complaints, and thou
sands of cases of the malady have been
permanently cured through the pa
tients being in the open every posi-
bic moment of their waking and sleep
ing hours. Time was when there was
class of people who were as afraid
as death of pure fresh air and would
as soon think of exposing themselves
to contagious disease as leave VIM
dow up in the sleeping room. While
a person of this type may be found
here and there, the class israpidly di-
minishing, the fear of fresh air being
a relic of bygone times that should be
dispensed with along with cupping,
bleeding and cauterizing with hot
irops.

DIVERSITY FARMER Is WISE
Yet in This Age Specialization Along Some Line Is an Essential to
 Highest Success.

We frequently hear the old proVerb about the danger of carrying all your
 eggs in one basket advanced as req son for following diversified rather than specialized farming, but recently a noted agricultural authority has sounded warning against the danger of carrying too many baskets, says American Agriculturist. To those who are true economists the last men toned warning appears to have the truer ring. There is undoubtedly an element of safety in a diversity of in terests, but the man who divides his energies between several different lines of business is likely to find all
 of them suffering as a consequence.
 Each is limited by all the others, and the benefits to be derived from vol
 ume of business are enjoyed by none of these lines. The same thing is true to no small degree in farming. The man who specializes in nothing hard ly finds it profitable to provide special equipment for any of the lines of pro- duction followed and in the end is
 more than likely to sacrifice actual
 profit from his business to secure the
 additional element of safety which he fancies to be derived from a diversi- fled production. So while we are ready to concede that degree of diversity is wise, yet in this age spe- cialiZation along some line is an es- sential to the highest success, and
 the man who in this sense carries the larger proportion of his eggs in one
 basket is more likely to succeed than the man who carries the weight of a
 multitude of baskets which are nearly
 empty.
 In practically every farm neighbor-
 hood it will be observed that the most
 successful farmers are specialists along some line. They are dairymen,
 fruit growers, stock breeders or feed
 CTS, or make speciality of some one
 cash crop, and employ the other or
 diversified branches of production in
 a secondary way as they best fit in
 with their special line. In this there is an object lesson which might be
 made profitable subject of observa- tion and study by their neighbors. But such observations should not be
 hastily made, nor conclusions there from hastily drawn. Many farmers
 make this mistake, and not finding
 the speciality upon which they decide as immediately profitable to them as it is to their neighbors who have had years of experience in that line and
 who have established in it reputa-
 tion for themselves and their product,
 they turn to something else with the same result Thus our business is one
 for constant study and observation
 and out plan cannot be successfully
 made offhand each year just before
 the fall seeding is done or the spring
 crops planted. Farming is com
 plicated business, which demands con-
 stant application if the many problems
 which it presents to each of us are to
 be successfully and profitably solved
 Nearly every farmer will find it profit
 able to specialize along some line,
 which should be selected with care
 and with view to his personal tastes
 and inclinations, as we'll as to the
 conditions under which he must work

MAKE EXPERIMENT FARMS PAY
Scientists Can Demonstrate Their Ability by Making State lnsti-
 tutions Profitable.

We have bunch of scientists run. ming our Texas experiment station;
 but no man can say that there is a practical farmer in the crowd unless they can take a farm and run it so that it will pay profit on the invest ment. The best way the Texas experi- ment station staff can convince the people that they are authorities on ag- riculture is to show us they can farm as well as experiment. for one think that the value of such a demon stration would be greater in educa- tional benefits than announcing to the world the benefit of scientific findings. writes J. B. Wright in Farm and Ranch. And I have no objection to their scientific research. A model farm run by the state on the same lines as a private farm would do more toward making the farmers of Texas believe in the findings Of the expert. ment station. Unless the state can prove out on its findings by practical application so as to save money, then what's the use of the experiments?

 And this gentleman" murmured Mr Hopkins, eyeing Donati with awe. With his beard gone, wrapped in his flowing cloak, and seated, he in no wise resembled the voluble little man of yesterday.

 "Are-are you Michael Angelo Raphael?" asked MT. Hopkins.

C1.r OsUn Solomon
By w. D. NES8iT.

My son, hearken now, and give ear, And pay attention.
 And consider we'll the story of the golf missionaries and the foozling heather.
 Behold, there was a youth of the name of Lemme Tryit, and he was the son of Diddy Tryit, who was the son of Muddy Tryit, who was a mighty man in his day.
 And there came unto Lemme Tryit certain men who had sunburn on their neck and blisters in their hands.
 And they said unto him: Come with us unto the golf links, where the highball lifteth itself alright and a man may fill himself with ozone and vain hopes."
 What is a golf links, and why should go even there for an highball?"
 And they sorrowed greatly over him, for that he knew not golf, and they said:
 Go to, and come with us, for we will show thee the joys of golf'
 And they took Lemme Tryit by the hand and led him into place that was called the club.
 And upon the veranda sat many men telling one another how they had gone around in 62 and would have made it 60 If that they had not slipped.
 Now they showed also unto Lemme Tryit certain men who were walking across the fields, and they were hit ting ball when they found 1t.
 Tt looketh easy" said Lemme Tryit
 "Verily, easy is no name for it," said one of the men.
 And they brought unto him certain sticks, the which had bunions on the end thereof.
 which looked like unto an overgrown pill.
 And Lemme Tryit said: 'Is it this that you call golf, for a grown man to whack poor little ball like unto this with club that is made of steel and brass and wood?"
 And they said: "It is, if you can hit the ball"
 Then did they show Lemme Tryit how that he was to knock the ball to certain place.
 Aha" said Lemme Tryit. "Only unto that spot. Verify, I shall drive 4a 'oall into the next state"
 And he swung his club and he smote nightly at the ball.
 But the ball moved not.
 Albeit Lemme Tryit said: Tt lodged"
 And so he essayed again to strike
The Green Forest tribune., 1909-09-17

the ball, and this time he drove with his club against the ground and broke the handle of the stick, so pro- digiously had he smitten.
 Now there came unto him an expert who showed him how to hold his hands, and how to stand with his feet unconscious of each other.
 So Lemme Tryit took another club and he smote nightly at the ball and he hit the ball so that it came straightway up from the ground and against his nose and bounded thence t6 eAe yeranda back of him and broke . tootl for the wife of the golf expert. And now did Lemme Tryit grow ex- $ceedingly wroth. And he took many 2sof the balls, and smote one after the Bother so that they went every way xupon the ground.
 N And he followed after them, strik- @ing them
 ' And he knocked them into the vest

SLIPPING AWAY.

Just for day to dream by the river, Just for day of rest In the shade of the trees Where the ghost of breeze
 Plies ever a wandering quest, And the hours fit by With never a sigh
 And never pain or blot, And there's never a tear, Nor grumble to hear
 And the ways of the world are forgot Just for day to lay down the burden Just for a day to be From the toll and the stress And the fight for success
 And the roar of the city set free; To go where bird In matin song heard
 will put gloomy fancies to rout, Where Love creeps to doze In the heart of a rose
 And there's nothing to worry about

ADVICE FROM THE BENCH.

Some years ago farmers along the line of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas railway brought suit against it, and engaged young lawyer named Brown. Judge Can't, who was presid- ing, was compelled to throw many of the cases out of court because they were improperly brought. Brown was mad all over. Swelling with indigna. tion, he arose and said: Your honor, will you please tell me how it is pos, sible in this court to get justice against railroad company"
 Judge Can't quietly ignored the contempt of court shown by the law yer and asked: Do you wish an an swer to that question:"
 Yes, sir," defiantly replied the in d1gnant lawyer; yes, sir, and want to know how a farmer can get his case into this court so that it will be heard"
 Judge Can't smiled and said: Well, first, MT. Brown, I'd advise the farmer to hire a lawyer"

A Genuine Raphael
By H. M. EGBERT.

The little Italian advanced nervously into the majestic presence of MT. Bevis M. Hopkins of Oil City, Missouri, but just now occupying paiatial apartment in the Grand hotel, Flor ence. Placing his right hand upon his heart, he lifted with his left large parcel, securely wrapped in many lay CTS of paper.
 "Ecco, signor," he said. "Ze Raph- ael"
 Open it." said Bevis M. Hopkins.
 With great care the Italian removed the wrappings, exposing to view a picture of a landscape, whereon sev- eral angels were frisking The paint ing was evidently of great antiquity, being cracked all over the surface
 "Hum!" said MT. Hopkins, thought

 By ze great master himself" pro- tested the Italian. Observe, signor, ze style-eet ees his vairy own"
 That's all to the good" MT Hop kins observed. "but you fellows are so darn smart, you can do them pictures better than the original You've got to show me before I pay fifty thousand plunks for that"
 You no buy, signor?" exclaimed the little man, aghast.
 Sure I'll buy, if you can prove it's genuwine," said MT. Hopkins. But you've got to prove it. Get me certi- ficate to say it's genuwine from the di- rector of the art gallery, for instance. I'll buy all genuwine art that comes my way, but you don't unload no cheap truck on me, no sir
 But, signor, how can I bring ze certificate when ze law of Italy for bids people to carry ze work of art out of ze country? If ze police knew zey would take ze picture away and throw me into jail. It Is an heirloom, signor, in my family for years. I am Carlo Donati ze Donati cannot lie."
 That don't cut no ice with me-" said MT. Hopkins. You got to prove that pictures genuwine or don't take it. don't care how you do it, but it's got to be done" And, still protesting, the little man presently found himself out side the door. He returned home frantic.
 "The Yankee pig doubts my word, the word of Donati," he cried to his wife. How can I prove it's genuine If called on the director of the art gallery he would notify the authorities. And it is genuine. Bah! Pig of mil lionaire."
 "He is ignorant?" asked his wife. "He is pig of donkey head"
