WHO is THE GREATEST WOMAN?

Two hundred school teachers were
once asked who was the greatest wom-
an in the world One young woman
passed by Queen Victoria, Frances
Willard, Helen Gould and Florence
Nightingale and gave this answer
The wife of farmer of small means
who cooks, washes and irons, brings
up large family of children, and
finds time to improve herself, is the
greatest woman of all history
A farmers profession is greater
than any other profession. l, takes
more brains, more patience and more
religion than any other profession
Some one has said: God made the
farmer and all other professions are
parasites
In no profession is there 50 much
partnership between man and wife as
on the farm. Many women run
farms themselves and many others
aid their husbands in the management
of the farm and attend farmers in
stitutes to study the subject.-Martha

Courtship Class for Jap Girls.

Japan has killed the last doubt as
to it's modern progress by the organi
cation of a class of courtship' for
girls in each of the secondary schools
The Japanese maidens are taught tina
If they should be so unfortunate as
to fall in love before becoming en-
gagged they must conceal the fact
Above all they must remember that
women never propose. Another thing
they are warned that well-bred girls
do not exchange photographs with
their admirers. In Japan until now
there has not been any trouble about
counting, and this is the first evidence
that the Japanese maidens need in,
struction in affairs of the heart
Glasses to the contrary, however, the
point is maintained that there is not
Juliet under the sun who does know
the exact formula for dealing with a
Romeo.

The substitution of steel for wood
goes steadily on Beginning with
January l, or Whereabouts, the Ma
tional Lead Company will pack its
white lead in steel kegs, having de-
cided to abandon the use of wooden
kegs This innovation is made be
cause the company has concluded that
steel kegs will have many advantages
over the wooden kegs. In the first
place, the steel package does not alb
sorb the oil from the lead as porous
wooden packages do. and there is,
therefore, no drying and caking Of
the lead around the edges, making it
possible to remove every particle OF
white lead easily from the steel key
The new steel kegs also will be much
lighter, as well as being stronger than
the wooden ones, and this will effect
a saving in freight charges. Taking
up less room than the wooden kegs
the new steel package also will save
storage space.

TOOK HIS OWN PHOTOGRAPH
Clever Method by Which British
Hunter Got Good Snapshot OF
Lion in Jungle.

Penetrating the wilds of British
East Africa with a camera and cine
matograph, Mr.. Cherry Kearton, the
skilled nature photographer" has
brought back to England some amaz-
ing pictures of strange beasts. Mr..
Kearton had one great disappoint-
ment. The lion eluded him so far as
the cinematograph was concerned. For
week on end, night and day, the pho
tographer fixed his apparatus in a
tree and waited for lion. But he
found the lions extraordinarily wary.
The nearest he ever got to one with
the cinematograph camera in daylight,
was $50 yards. Then the lion, not
the photographer, bolted. At this dis
lance the lion appeared so small upon
the Photographic films that the pic
ture was useless.
But Mr. Kearton had his revenge.
He left a camera shielded in a leather
case near the lion drinking pool
Above it, in tree, was flashl1ght
apparatus From this a thread passed
across the path the lion was known
to tread. In the middle of the night
down came the lion to drink. He
broke the thread, ignited the rhagne-
stun, and took an instantaneous pho
tograph of himself before the brilliant
flash sent him crashing away in alarm
through the forest.

MOSTLY MADE IN TEN YEAR 5
Harrimans immense Fortune Abs D
lutely Without Parallel in History
of Sef-Made Men.

The final appraisal of the late Il.
H. Hartman places it at value of
$149,000,000 This is more than $780,
900 900 over the most liberal estimate
made when it was a matter of specl-
laton. AS a rule, when an appraisal
of an estate of great wealth, which
is much talked of, is made, the public
estimate is found to be greater than
the fact Estates shrink under care
full examination. But in the present
case the contrary has been the fact.
It is much larger than even his init
mates supposed.
The wonder of it is that such a
great estate should have been accum-
ulated in the time it was. Mr. Rocke-
feller's great wealth was built up in a
period covering 40 years; that of Mr..
Carnegie in about the same time.
1t took three generations to build up
the Astor and Vanderbilt fortunes to
their present mammoth proportions.
The Morgan estate was erected on &C
cumulations made in a prior genera
ton and the time in which the great
Hill, Kennedy and Strathcona fortunes
were made was not less than so years.
Yet Mr. Harriman's great accumula-
tions were made within a period of ten
years. 1t is without parallel in the
history of self-made fortunes of huge

GOOD LOGIC.
February ]

The editor of the Mapleton (Kan-
sas) Press says: make your rural
home beautiful. Lay out spacious
grounds around the farm house, plant
SHADE trees, lay gravel roads and
p ant flowers. Don't lay to all your
net earnings for the benefit of your
heirs and lawyers, but spend some
of it in identifying your home. The
f; rmer who always shuts his eyes to
tie aesthetic features of his life and
screws himself down to the task of
making money, loses a large portion,
ard the biggest portion of his exist
ence His home should be an attrac-
ton to himself, his wife and above
ALTO his children"

BERMUDA FOR HOGS.

Bermuda grass is not much used as
a pasture for hogs, but should be
grown more in regions to which it is
adapted. 1t is relatively rich in pro-
tein, is not easily killed out by pastur-
irg. and withstands drought well. 1t
is often used as a soil binder, and
might as we'll be used for hog pasture.
Many hilly farms that are now wash
ing badly could be put in bermuda
grass and pastured to stock, thus saw
ing the land and building up the soil.
Some farmers are beginning to make
u.e of this grass and are fencing it
for hog pasture. 1t withstands heavy
grazing, roofing, trampling and
drought

THE FARMER AND HIS SEED.

At this season of the year farmers
everywhere are preparing for the crop
of the coming season. At the very be-
ginning of this whole process let them
consider more carefully than they con-
slider anything else the character of
the seed they are planting
Determine in your own mind what
kind of crop you want. If you are
raising cotton, whether you want long
OF short staple-early or late. If
corn, consider the corn that is the
most profitable and get seed of the
kind that you want.
The faith of the farmer is every year
to us a matter of admiration. Here
he has his capital in his land. To
that capital he must add labor. He
takes the seed that he has bought and
buries it in the ground, knowing that
there it must rot-disintegrate-be-
fore there can be any possibility of a
return.
But so regular are the processes Of
nature, for so many generations has
the seed planted in the earth brought
forth abundant crops that the farmer
without hesitation invests all he has at
the beginning of the year in the for
tunes of this farm on the basis of this
process of nature.
Faith is good Without it work on
the farm would come to a standstill ;
but add works to faith and direct all
of your labors with intelligence.
Begin, therefore, with the careful
selection of the seed, whatever you are
going to plant Do not trifie with this
important subject. Plant some seed
of your own raising, but it is always
wise to improve your seed by new seed
from other sections, new life, new
strains. In selecting your own seed,
select the very best of your own pro-
ducts. Discard the faulty or defec-
tive. Enough is known now about
breeding with animals to make it pos
sible to improve your dairy cows, your
horsese and your cattle. A like prin-
ciple applies to your seed. 1t is the
principle of intelligent selection

Stanley's Estimate of Leaders.

The civil war only developed two

and Lee, but in the second rank there

opportunities, have rivaled the first

vote of the military class as to which
was the greater of the two greatest
captains OF the war the vote would be
cast for Robert E, Lee. Nevertheless
there was something in Grant which
though not so snowy as the strategy
and dash of Lee, makes me cast my
vote for Grant"

RECORD APPROX
ED.

1t is the consensus of opinion that
the opposition to Governor Donaghey
has spent its force, if it ever had any,
and that now it is only a question of
how great will be his popular ma
iority at the state Democratic pri-
mary on March 30.
With the machine crowd at Little
Rock, who have heretofore engineered
every gubernatorial nomination and
also dictated both the appointments
as well as the policy of the governor,
attempted a year ago to run Cover
nor Donaghey they quickly learned
that at last Arkansas had chief eX-
eeutive who had no affiliations with
ring" politics.
In the eyes of the machine" poll
ticians, Governor Donaghey's chief
crime is that he will not be controlled
by them, and that is the only reason
why Coburn c. Kavanaugh was
brought cut
The Kavanaugh managers have
been allied with machine politics al
ways and in the present farcial cam
paign ring politicians are his chief
advisers.
The same gang is against Donaghey
and his clean government. They have
not been able to use him. nor persuade
him to permit them to do things in an
extravagant manner, and therefore,
they wouldslike their candidate to oc
eupy the governors office.
Governor Donaghey is plain, hon
est business man. He don't know any
thing about professional politics, and
all that he attempts to know about
them is just enough to enable him to
put his foot upon the tricksters when
he discovers them trying to plumber
the taxpayers.
Every campaign Islander that has
been uttered against Donaghey has
fallen of its own falsity. The people
are acquainted with the records of the
Little Rock Ring" and the Caldwell
& Drake gang, which are the chief OPP
ponents of the governor, and in fact
they really stand as the candidate
against Donaghey.
With their unsavory regulations
known to the people in every county
in Arkansas, there is no danger of the
voters permitting them to again put
the state capitol building back into
politics. The taxpayers realize that
Governor Donaghey has rid this veNed
public question of pernicious political
schemers and is completing the build
ing for the people and as economically
as it would be built for a private in
dividual.
Arkansas is not going to step back
ward, and the Southwest American
predicts that the voters will at the
March primary roll up such a grand
majority for good government and
Governor Donaghey that the machine
politicians will never again attempt
to pollute the state government
