We get our knowledge of perfect
love by glimpses and in fragment
chiehy-tAe rarest only among us
knowing what it is to worship and
caress, reverence and cherish, divide
our bread and mingle our thoughts
at one and the same time, under in
spiration of the same object. Finest
aromas will so often leave the fruits
to which they are native and cling
elsewhere, leaving the fruit empty
of all but it's coarser structure!-

That our American forests abound in
plants which possess the most valua bic
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores Of the most eminent medical
writer's and teachers. Even the untu-
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent Of the white race. This informa-
ton, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have a rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.

Statistics gathered from the federal
governments reports show that the
average prices paid farm labor since
1879 have risen considerably For the
year. or season, the monthly money
rate paid farm labor for the different
census periods was $10.43 in 1879,

No. Of the 1909 annals Of the Ameri-
can Academy of Social Science, speaks
of this wage as follows: THE express

garden plot. Or pasturage for a COW.
or milk for the daily use Of the fam

two. or the use of horse and wagon
for family pleasure on certain DAYS.
Then there Is the low cost of living in
the farm laborer's favor as compared
with the cost which he would find in

rates indicate. This fact. however. has

1t Is only natural that the climate
and soil which will best favor the
production Of any live stock are those
IN which the same stock is found
wild, In his natural state. The hog is
found where vegetation Is abundant
and luxuriant, where he can find shell
ter In winter and shade and plenty
OF water in the summer, writes ]. T.
bridgman, In Orange Judd Farmer.
While he is a heavy feeder and
thrives best where he can find luxur-
liant pastures, roots, etc., he is not a
ranger and cannot endure a great
amount Of travel at one time. AS
hogs are notably affected by extremes
OF cold and heat. the character of
their shelter will have much to do
with their successful rearing. The
above being true, we will naturally
do best with hogs when we have ar
ranged their home and feeding
grounds, to certain extent, at least
such as he would choose for himself

A Fool for Luck
Bv CAROLINE LOCKHART


The smoking lamps in the Dutch
mans at Hermosa were dimmed by
the hot dawn of an Arizona morning
when a red-haired, freckled-faced cow
boy staggered out of the door of the
saloon, laughing boisterously. He
pulled sombrero over his keen gray
eyes and swung himself into the
depths of Gallup cOw-saddle; where

the leg of his rider. This made many
