KENTUCKY FARMERS WIN.

Through Combination They Have
Beaten the Tobacco Trust.
Farmers in Kentucky have received
very recently the highest prices ever
paid for tobacco. The result is due
chiefly to the pools formed by the
Kentucky farmers to fight the Amer
lean Tobacco Company and many
other large manufacturing concerns
which for years had bought TOBACCO
at practically their own prices, leaving
the farmer a bare subsistence.
The public remembers chiefly the
night-riding that in some localities at
tended this movement, but as tobacco
is raised on 100000 farms in Kentucky
the percentage of violence was small.
The movement has been attended by
complete success and there is probably
no other instance on so large scale
in which farmers have banded to-
gether, have maintained their organ
ization and have compelled great cor
porations to come to their terms. The
result would have been the same had
there been no night-riding. The inval-
liable ally of the farmers was the
country storekeeper, who in the first
stages of the fight carried their &C
counts for as much as two or three
years
Kentucky is now raising 400,000,00O
pounds of tobacco annually. The
farmers are now receiving about twice
as much for their tobacco as before
they began their great fight

A Republican Crisis.

Western voters win be glad to know
that President Taft and his advisers
have decided that the Republican
party must stand or fall in the com.
ing Congressional election according
as it has fulfilled the pledges made in
the presidential campaign by enacting
them into law
Notwithstanding the presidents APP
proval of Senator Aldrich and the AL
drich-Taft tariff. the western mind is
satisfied that the pledge which brought
Judge Taft most OF his western vote
was not fulfilled by that tariff.
The insurgency" of western con-
gressmen against the Aldrich tariff
bill was inspired by the attitude of
western voters, who voted for Mr..
Taft because he had promised them
tariff reduction, but who will vote
against his candidates Cor congress
this fall because the promise has not
been carried out.
President Taft's action in withhold
ing patronage from congressman who
refuse to betray their constituents and
accept the yoke of eastern mill bosses
and captains of finance makes the is
sue strikingly clear The revolt of
western voters against Aldriehism and
all that it signifies will surprise him,
but he can blame no one but those
whose advice has blinded him to facts
and whose anxiety to serve the eastern
trusts exceeds their regard for Mr.
Taft or the Republican party.

Feeding and Bedding Hogs.

Contrary to common belief. swine
have some habits which raise them
above other domestic animals from the
standpoint of cleanliness. Unless COM
PEELED to do so they will not sleep in
their own filth. If part of the floor of
the house is kept well bedded with
straw, while the rest is not, the excre-
ment will be left on the Embedded por-
ton of the floor, and the bed itself
will always be clean
In order to obtain the best results
from the feed, 1t is necessary that all
the pigs should get equal rations.
When the pigs are hungry and the
feed is such as they like, 1t is i'm
possible to prevent some from get
ting more than their share If fed In
a plain trough with either a fat or
V-shaped bottom.
Feed troughs should be with cross
bars dividing them into sections, SO
that the largest and greediest pigs are
prevented from getting them and also
from pushing along down the trough,
with their mouths In 1t, showing the
smaller pigs aside. Make the troughs
in different sizes to suit the size Of
hogs fed therefrom.

FILIPINO WOMEN.
Their Cares Begin Early, and They
Win Husbands by Hard Work.

Their Cares Begin EARLY, and They
Win Husbands by Hard Work.
Filipino women know how to win
husbands says an American woman
who is living at Manila. 1T is a COM
mon thing in the islands to see girl
young and brown and strong, crushing
rice with heavy wooden mallet, while
around her sit number of admiring
SWANS, looking on, but never dreaming
of offering to help. And the girl does
mt expect it, She pounds cheerfully
away, and by and by her reward comes
in husband to work for.
Life accustoms the Filipino woman
to labor at a very early age. AS a
tiny girl" quotes the New York Press,
"she is rarely seen without an append
age in the shape of a baby brother
or sister perched on her little brown
hip. When she grows few inches
taller and few degrees stronger she
is pressed into service as water car
rier, bearing heavy jars of water
poised gracefully on her head from
the river to her home. Now, too, she
works in the fields, and a vivid bit
of color she makes in her short kilt
ed scarlet skirt When she becomes a
woman-and she is woman at fifteen
or before-she may have small shoD
to tend, and there is the rice to beat
and much other work to do.
Marriage brings no vacation She
is pretty sure to have many children
to care for She tends the fields, cooks
ard frequently has stall in the mar
ket for several hours a day. But when
the women are really old then their
rest time comes. They sit quietly by
looking on as life goes past them, but
taking part no more. In spite of the
hard labor they have had there is gen.
orally a very peaceful look in the
brown, wrinkled faces of these old
women"

DOUBLE RURAL MAIL SERVICE
GOOD ROAD MOVEMENT GAINS
Amount of Matter Handled in Year
Is SO Per Cent Greater than
in Year 1905.

An increase of 81 per cent in the
amount of mail handled on rural deliv-
cry routes during the fiscal year end
ed June 80 last over the fiscal year of
1905 is shown in the annual report of
the fourth assistant postmaster. P. ".
De Graw. Commenting upon this fact
Mr. De Graw says:
This remarkable. increase is con-
elusive evidence that the institution
Of rural delivery has enlarged the
amount of the mails handled, and
therefore increased the revenue. This
Is true, although 45 per cent of the
bulk of mail ON rural routes is second
class matter, as the increase applies
to all classes of matter, especially to
letters and postal cards, the latter
due to the enormous use Of souvenir
Or picture postal cards
The report shows that during the
last year 1876 petitions for rural de-
livery service of mail were filed with
the department. OF this number 361
were pending on June 80, 1909. OF
the 3,515 petitions disposed of, 907.
or 81 per cent, were rejected. and 2,10S
petitions were accepted for investiga-
ton.
There has been unprecedented i'm
provement of the condition of roads
traversed by rural carriers the re-
port says, "dre to the intelligent and
well directed interest of postmasters
and carriers"
