EMINENT NEGRO AUTHORS.
Reasons Why Negroes Should Read
Their Own Literature.

Their Own Literature.
John q. Bruce Grit Of Yonkers. N.
Y, whose book entitled Biography OF
Eminent Negroes" is nearing compile
ton, gives eight reasons why Negroes
should read the literature Of their own
race and in the last count says the
best history of race is written by
the men Of that race. No other race
historian will preserve all the tradi-
tions and facts relating to another
race as truthfully and accurately as
our own historians. Race pride Is the
incentive that spurs all historians to
write Of their race and its achieve
ments, and historians of other races
seldom tell the whole truth about q
race which is striving to equal their
own race.

best gains should be made We
would feed them in this way: Let
the pigs run on the clover, cowpeas,
peanuts or soy beans. Night and
morning give them all the shorts and
milk, mixed in the proportion of
about 8 pounds of milk to one pound
of shorts, they will eat up clean and
want just little more, and then
feed them a few roasting ears or
little dry corn at noon.
eff green feed is cut for them, give
them this before feeding the other
feeds and let them eat it some time
before feeding grain or concentrated
feeds. If nothing but green feed and
corn is available or can be had, then
try and buy some dried blood or d.
gester tankage to mix with the slops
from the house. If dried blood is
used, one part of blood to 10 or 10
of corn is sufficient; but if tankage,
one part to s or 10 of corn should
be fed

Since the time for exhibiting your

following information kindly furnish
nished by DR.. TAFT Butler, Editor of
The Progressive Farmer and Gazette,
upon my request, will be timely and

1.-THE important points in feeding
the pig are, CD that he receive some
green or succulent feed; CD that
there be variety Of feeds he likes,
and CD that the ration contain suf-
ficient bone and matchmaking ma
terials.
For green or succulent feed the
clovers, cowpeas, peanuts, soy beans
or other legumes are the best. If
these can not be had. then green
corn, sorghum, or any other green
stuff he will eat. In order to obtain
variety, at least two other feeds will
probably be found necessary, in ad-
dition to the green feed. If fed care
fully and not in too large quantity,
roasting ears produce rapid and
good gains.
"In addition, some feed rich in
protein will be necessary. The best
OF these for pigs is skinned milk.
With clover, cowpeas, peanuts or soy
beans for pasture, and roasting ears
and milk and wheat shorts, the very

New Plan Expected to End Ar

of Collecting Fee.

George w. Miles of Syracuse, the
new state fish and game commission
er, purposes to employ different
methods from those followed bv
Commissioner Sweeny in protecting
the fish and game from poachers in
the state. Instead of paying wardens
on the commission plan he will place
them on a stipulated salary and hold
them responsible for the protection
of their several districts. The COM
missioner will also endeavor to cult
vate the friendship and cooperation
of land owners and people in small
towns, and villages and in this way
stimulate sentiment in favor of fish
and game protection. The plan seems
to be good in that it will place the
work of the department on a better
basis than that which offered q pre-
MUM for the detection of offenders
and led to many arrests for trivial
causes and at the same time interest

that is of more vital Importance

Extinction OF Race.

According to a recent dispatch
from Washington, census officials
say the rate of increase of the native
born people of this country has fall
en- in ten years from q to 6 percent
They prophesy that by the time an
other national census is taken, this
native population will probably show
an actual falling off. In other words,
we must depend upon immigration
for future numerical.
If the report is correct, the condi-
ton is grave one, more grave than
the problem that confronts France.
France must maintain itself against
armed forces but We must maintain
ourselves and our traditions against
immigrating hordes that come to
steal away our very national individ-
uality. The reasons for the existing
state of things are too obvious to
need discussion. Irrational growth of
cities, increasing love of luxury in
creasing wealth, increasing frivolity,
are some of the principal ones.

the house Mrs. Osborn gave
the alarm, but he had disappeared.
