A Texas railroad has conceived a
| brilliant idea and is about to put it
into execution. 1t is to run a "hog
special over it's line.
The average person at once asks
what is "hog special?" 1t is train
designed by the road "for the pur-
pose of encouraging and fostering
| the important work of hog raising in
| East Texas" This train will give a
practical demonstration of all mat
ters connected with the science of
hog raising as perfected so far. Pig
pens will be on the stock cars and
Berkshire, Duroc and Poland China
hogs and other registered breeds.
Accompanying the train will be a
recognized, practical hog expert
This authority will lecture at each
stopping point on the itinerary,
pointing out how big profits are to
be made through the science of
swine raising.
This train is to start on July 5
from Dallas, and is to run to Liberty.
1t is to stop for day at each princi-
pal station between the two points,
in order to enable farmers to hear
the lecture and examine the hogs
and the narrowing pens, in which
will be the mothers and their litters.
The lecture will give full informa-
tion on breeding of hogs, On the best
crops to make hog feed and how to
raise and harvest these crops in the
best and cheapest way, with special
instruction in hog fattening.
1t is said that hogs can be raised
in hn of
ing from 1 IL to cents per pound.
The market price today is 8 to 10
cents per pound. A profit of three
hundred to six hundred per cent is
apparent. 1t is an invitin" field for
every thinking farmer. Cotton may
be high, or it may not be. Food
stuffs have been high for some years,
and there is little prospect of lower
prices. Hogs are today being i'm
ported by the thousand from far-off
China. because of their high price
here and the thoughtlessness Of the
Republican Party in not putting up
a fence in the tariff against them |
The moral of the whole situation is
for the Southern faremr to get busy |
raising hogs, not only for his own |
use, but to sell in the markets
In the meantime would it not be |
a right idea for some Alabama rail-
road or for the state commissioner |
of agriculture to adopt the Texas |
suggestion? If the Texas farmers |
doesn't know all about hog raising,
it is safe to say that many an Ala
bamaian could learn something.

PRODUCTION OF CORN.

In recent discussion of the causes
of the increase in farm values, which
is more noticeable in the Gulf states
and particularly Louisiana, Mr.. Geo.
K. Holmes, chief of the Division of
Foreign Markets, Department of
Agriculture. says that this has been
brought about by improved methods
that have materially increased the
soil production. Very large effects
have been derived from better cul-
rural methods, from the substitution
of profitable crops, by the adoption
of more intensive culture for crops,
by better applied labor, and by add
ed improvements.
Some of the causes that have ma
terially affected the value of lands
in sections of the state have already
been applied, as for instance, the
drainage of extensive areas of rich
soils, the building of better and more
durable roads and the extension of
railroads that enable the farmers to
send their products to markets. But
there is still much to be done before
the values of the lands in the market
can be quoted in comparison with
these of other sections where the
people have found the speciality for
which their lands and location is
adopted.
The recent developments in the
to Louisiana, tend tothe belief that
one of the staple and most profitable
crops should be corn. AS told else
where in this number of the maga-
zine, there is a general increase and
Improvement in this crop all over
the state. But it is not alone in
acreage that an increase is desired.
The land should produce a larger
yield to the acre as well.
The Louisiana Meadows Company,
agricultural world, with reference
which has added to the states wealth
by draining and making available
large tracts of land that will not
need humns for century, has ap-
parently conceived this idea 1t has

ROPINESS OF MILK.

Were you ever troubled with ropy
milk? Sometimes you have it and
sometimes you don't. 1t is a mys-
terry to the ordinary dairyman or
the housewife who keeps her one or
two cows. Yet the expert under
stands it. He knows that bacteria
produce rOly milk. There are at
le&G- dozen kinds of bacteria that
AXE tie milk ropy. Mosa of us
VIII never be able to Distinguish the
varieties, and it does not matter if
IS dent. The main thing is to
succeed in avoiding them. This 10
the practical side of it.
The milk that has become ropy
was all right when it came from the
COW. These bacteria got in it after
ward. They made it ropy, just as
other bacteria make other milk sour
The bacteria that make milk sour are
more common, and hence we have
our sour milk. The ropy-milk bac-
terra generally have their origin in
unclean milk vessels, while the sour
milk bacteria drop in from most any
where.
We are told that a Rhode Island
farmer had trouble with rOpy milk.
The milk wasn't always ropy, but
now and then, and often two or
three times week. He went to the
experiment station men with sam
pie, and after examination, they told
him it was caused by bacteria, and
that he must scald his vessels more
carefully. A COW doctor near by
told him disease of the cows udder
caused the trouble. So the man sold
the COW. The experiment station
men bought her with the idea of
finding out the whole truth of the
matter. This they did. There was
nothing the matter with the cows
udder, but they found ropy milk bac-
terra in the strainer cloth, where they
had lodged and not been scalded out.
In such case you ought to scald
everything and dry it in the sun, for
sunlight is death to bacteria. Agains
we ask, Have you ever been troubled
with ropy milk? If you have and
will study this article closely, think
you will be able to track it up and
run it out. 1t is more apt to come
in cool weather, for ropy bacteria
flourish better then. They some
times hide in a little crevice of the
milk pail, and are hard to get rid of.
You cannot be too careful or too
thorough in searching them out and
slaughtering the last one of them

If values of the average northern
land can be increased at this rate
simply by methods indicated it is
only reasonable to suppose that the
same ratio of increase in values will
obtain at Ra eland or anywhere else
in the state when these methods
have been adopted.
The effort of the Louisiana Mea-
dows Company to induce the people
of the Raceland prairies to improve
their corn production, is therefore
worthy of commendation.
The prizes offered are as follows:
For the best ten ears of corn:
First prize, $50; second prize, s25:
third prize, $40.
For the neatest looking door yard:
First prize, $25; second prize SIS;
third prize, $40.
The judges for the best ten ears
OF corn will be any one or three
persons who are government, state
or agricultural college corn experts,
to be chosen by the farmers, and for
the other two sets of prizes by any
three persons, chosen by property
owners, not living in Lafourche par
his or related to any member of the
company Or its employees at Race
land, nor any member or officer of
the company. The prizes will be
awarded early in November.
The conditions of the contest are
sa follows:
l. Best ten ears of corn: This
prize will be awarded for the best
ten ears of corn produced on any one
farm. All the points of corn grad
ing will be taken into consideration.
z. Cleanest and best kept ditch
rs: In awarding this prize every
hitch running through Or along the
line of the farm will be
aiken into consideration and prize
will be awarded to the farmer whose
1itches are the straiohtest and most |
rec from weeds and high grasses
This will also include one-half of |
he used public highway along the |
arm.
3. For the most tidy and best |
ooking door yard: Commencing |
n the center of road in front of |
louse and running back to include |
he barnyard. In awarding prizes
he size, value or architecture of
he house will not be taken into
consideration. Only the cleanliness

THE COW.

The dairy cow, if able to express
herself in way in which the human
family would comprehend, might
well lay claim to being mans best
friend. She might establish such
claim by calling attention to the fact
that from her product and from her
carcass man manufacturers more of
the necessities of life than from any
other similar source. She furnishes
these necessities to him from infancy
until such a time as temporal things
are no longer associated with his ex-
1stence, and she does it ungrudgingly
and constantly.
In addition to contributing to
mans necessity and his pleasure, the
prosperity of an agricultural COM
munlty is more closely identified
with her than with any other of the
domestic animals. The horse is
quite essential in tilling the soil, but
where necessity requires it, the stur-
dy son of the cow can take his place.
as he has done in every agricultural
section on earth. The horse can only
furnish labor and can only return a
proht to his owner when conditions
are right for returning satisfactory
grain crops. 1t is a well-known fact
that the dairy cow is the salvation of
the farmer in times of poor crops as
she is able to convert the rough crops
which are never total failure, into
dairy products, which always have a
cash value
In addition to this, she furnishes
skim milk and butter for the calves,
pigs, and poultry, and fertility for
the soil, without which a farm be-
comes less valuable each year, and
the whole country less prosperous.
The elimination of the dairy COW
would necessitate an almost revolu-
tlonary readjustment of mans tastes
and requirements. 1t would mean
untold suffering and hardship. Of
course. she will not be dispensed
with, but her value can perhaps best
be appreciated by contemplating
such loss.
She will continue to be mans best
friend as long as the human family
exists, and will keep on supplying
him with his greatest needs just as
she has done through all the ages.
