New Home Project.

Probably the biggest proposition
which will come before the grand lodge
will be the disposition of the report of
the committee on the EIks Home, now
located at Bedford City. Va. The COM
mittee will report i'm favor of aband-
oning this location and will also sub
nit n number of alternative PROPOSE
tions. but until some action is taken
on the report the campaigns being
conducted by various cities to secure
the home simply serves to befuddle
the issue. 1t is conceded that the
present home should either be aband-
oned or extensively remodeled and the
issue will come on these two PROPOSE
tions. At the present time there are
46 residents in the home.

HOG DEMONSTRATION
A New Feature of Enterprise by the
V. S. & P. Railway.

The Caucasian has received from
Frank P. Stubbs Jr., division counsel of
the Viclsburg, Shreveport and Pacific
railway, circular i'll which it is an
nounced that the Vicksburg, Shreve-
port and Pacific Railway Company, in
conjunction with the Fort Worth Stock
Yards Company of Fort Worth, Texas,
is considering the operation of a hog
demonstration car over the line of the
former company between Shreveport
and Delta.
The purpose of the operation of the
car is the stimulation of interest in hog
raising in North Louisiana, and the
demonstration of the natural advantages
of this section for and the material ben
.ehts, i'll a financial way, to be derived
from the industry The car will carry
"a corps of experienced hog raisers and
lecturers, and will also exhibit types Of
hogs suitable for market purposes and
adapted to successful breeding in the
territory adjacent to the line of the
Vicksburg, Shreveport and Pacific.
The expense Of the car will be
borne by our company, and its operation
will be without cost and free to the
public You will understand however,
that the management would not care to
incur the expense and labor incident to
+1,n G Al -
reasonable assurance of the cooperation
on the part of the farmers and stock
raisers generally along its line through
out North Louisiana.
The car will stop and remain several
hours, if not all day, at central and CON
venient points Of access in the different
parishes, and | have taken the liberty
of addressing you in order that the
matter may be brought to the attention
of your people, and an expression OBJ
tanned from them as to the desirability
of the operation Of the car, and their
opinion as to whether any practical and
substantial benefits will accrue to them
thereby.
Therefore, after canvassing the sit
uation with the people who are inter
.ested, will you be good enough to let
me have the concensus of their views
in the premises
The success of this demonstration
must rest with those .4ho are directly
interested in raising hogs. There should
be dates fixed for such demonstration
When?

standpafters can, but who IS to blame
if the democrats win? The standpatters
and they alone. They have caused the
revolt in their own party and have Civ
en- new hope to the democrats. If the
democrats put party success above their
interest in the country they mught hope
to see the insurgents routed by the stand
patters, for victory for the standpat-
ters would encourage the predatory in
terests to more arrogant demands. But
the democrats want reforms more than
they want a partisan advantage, there
fore they hope to see the reform element
in the republican party successful in the
primaries. With the reform element in
both parties in charge of the party Or
carnations, the people will be sure of
some reform even if the republicans win
and more if the democrats are victor
iOus.

THE HOG QUESTION.


Richland Democrat c. c. French,
travelling solicitor for the Fort Worth
Stock Yards Company, spent Saturday
in our town. The object of the gentle
mans visit was to get acquainted with
conditions in this section and report to
his company the outlook for getting our
people to go into the hog industry on
a large scale He said to the scribe:
The country is now 5,o3e,ooo hogs
short from November I6, 1909. to De
=cember 25, 1900 At Fort WDrth there
is a shortage of over 10000 head since
January /, 1910, and there is demand
for 10000 hogs every market day in the
week
Il regard this part of the country as
the best hog country in the United
States, owing largely to the fact that
you can have green food all the year
round.
when the same attention is given to
breeding and care Of hogs as is given to
hogs in Iowa, this country will produce
the very highest grade of hogs

GENERAL LEES HOME
How Arlington Became United States
Property.

Confederate Veteran for July: Gen. R.
E. Lee married in the drawing at
Arlington the daughter Of George
Washington Parke Curtis, a grandson of
Mrs. Martha Washington by her first
marriage. At this time all the lnagnifi-
fcent Arlington estate was owned by
Mr.. Curtis, and on his death it devolved
upon Mrs. Lee, and here all the happiest
years Of General Leee's life were spent
and here his children were born.
When General Lee went to the front
in the cause of the Confederacy, he left
his family at Arlington; and possibly
they could have remained in undisturbed
possession of the place, but Mrs. Lee,
alarmed by the rumors that the FEEDER
ais were coming and would take posses
sion of her home, abandoned Arlington,
and with her children went we'll within
the Southern line. Some time after this
the abandoned home was taken as a
hospital and the first person buried here
was Confederate soldier who died at
this hospital. About this time breast
works were thrown up to prevent the
Confederates occupying such vantage
point, as from these heights Washington
was practically at the mercy of a heavy
battery and bomb throwing mortar.
Niether Genreal Lee nor his wife
made any attempt to recover Arlington; !;
but in 1877 George Washington Gusts
Lee, their son, brought suit for this pur-
pose; and his claim being SO clear, the
United States settled with him for
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and
the Arlington grounds were turned in
Ito a national cemetery OF the sixteen
thousand who sleep in the beautiful
grounds, many are Confederates, and
there are some women also. Any Off.
Ger in the regular army or who served
as a volunteer IN either war may have
d LOT assigned to him by application to"
the quartermaster general, and his fam
ily may be inferred in it.

About Ready Made clothina.

1t is one of the changes Of our time
that women purchase ready made or
partly made clothing so much more
than they used TO do, says an English
magazine. Time was when anybody
with pretensions to be "a LADY, would
have snorted with indignation If charg-
ed with wearing ready made clothing.
Now a woman of average figure feels
it neither q disadvantage nor dis
grace to don garments of good fabric
and style, though made by the gross.

THE WEATHER.

Reported by the Weather Bureau:
The weather has been generally fair
over the cotton belt, excepting light or
moderately heavy showers here and
there in some of the eastern and north
eastern sections. Seasonable to above
normal temperatures have generally pre-
vailed, maximum temperatures averag
ing as high as 100 degrees in the Okla

LOCATING THE BLAME

Each morn he perched before the bar
And gulped his liquor down,
And 'twixt each drink he'd say, Il think
The fates upon me frown."
He'd say Dame Fortune passed him by
And made him good jobs lose;
He blamed each day that slipped away
But he never did blame booze.
From off the cool, enticing stein
He'd blow the creamy foam,
And twixt each draught he cursed the
graft
That robbed the kids at home.
MY kids in rags, my wife forlorn,'
He sighed midst many tear,
And I could name the trusts to
blame
But he never blamed the beer.
Here's to you, old pal!' he would ex-
claim
Some seven times an hour,
And 'twixt each drink he'd say, Il think
The trusts are sure in power.
They rob our children of their grub,
Their shoes are torn and thin;
The trusts to blame for all our
shame"
But he never blamed the gin,
"The trusts have got us by the throat"
Full oft I've heard him say:
"They reign in state while we must
wait
Their pleasure every day"
He blamed them for his rotten luck,
He blamed them low and high;
With glass held tight he blamed them
right
But he never blamed the rye.
At home his wife and little ones
In hunger, rags and tears,
Knew well the cause of all things was
The bourbon, gin and beers.
They knew just where to lay the blame
For lack Of food and shoes;
For lack of clothes and hunger's woes
And they just blamed the booze.

Sycamore Hill.

OF August it may first be said, its
name is from Augustus, whom men
have hkened upto Ted, perhaps without
injustice. He made the world 60 round
about as many times a minute, and the
news was always dull without the great
Augustus in it.
He had his Ananias Club for liars and
for takers, and he loved to sail his little
tub among the Roman breakers He
counted peace sort of plague, and new
er did pursue it, but LET it rally at The
Hague, and you couldn't beat him to it.
He preached about the same old things
that Teddy has been preaching, and
most Of Rome's awakenings resulted
from his teaching. He battled hot1y for
the right,a nd valiantly imbued it, and
the stofk could not attempt to light but
what he up and shooed it.
There was, however, one affair to
tell which is to tattle, and that was
where this Roman bear was coming in
from battle. He had, of course, put
everything opposing him to s1umber
and Rome awaited him to sing SINE
laudatory number.
But here the parallel desists. Au-
gastus said them, No, sir! and when
he entered with his lists it might have
been Is grocer for all the greeting that

HOW RED CROSS SEALS FIGHT
CONSUMPTION.

1t would be impossible to tell of
all the good work that the money
received from Red Cross Stamps last
year has done during the past year,
but a few instances may be cited.
In Chicago, a little over $4,000
was realized, and this money for five
months supported eight free tuber-
culosis dispensaries, together with
eleven visiting nurses, 1850 new pa
tients being examined and $3.50 Wis
its made to the clinic. In addition
to this for the same five months the
Central office of the Chicago Tuber-
culosis Institution was supported.
and through this office hundreds of
thousands of people were helped in
that city and throughout the State
of Illinois.
In Brooklyn, the $4,000 taken in
from the stamp sale has gone to sup
port a ferry boat day camp with an
average daily attendance of rs.
Many patients have been restored
to health and usefulness as the re-
suit of this work.
In New York the County Red Cross
Day Camp on the roof of the Van
derbilt Clinic has given a chance for
new health to hundreds of consump-
tives. Similar camps have fought
the fight against tuberculosis in
Kingston, N. Y; Schenectady, N. Y;
Washington, D.. c.; kalamazoo,
Mich; Cleveland, Ohio, and in many
other cities.
Special nurses have been provided
from the Red Gross funds and in
some casAs fuhercuIosie disnensarips
been established. Literature
has been printed and distributed,
lectures given, exhibits conducted,
and legislatures, municipal and
county authorities stirred TO activ-
ity, as the result of the Red Cross
Stamp sale of 1903. Every stamp
has been a real bullet in the fight
against tuberculosis.
