EXPERIENCE WITH A HOG.

A Bee county mana newcomer
planting an orange orchard-called at
the Southwestern Farmer office a few
days ago. We asked him about his
plans and progress to date. lie said
the fact that had impressed him most
forcibly was his experience with
hog Ten months ago" he said, Il
bought a Duroc-Jersey pig, about as
big as your hat. for 81, to aceommo
date a neghbor. Today my pig
weighs 300 pounds, and hasn't cost
me a cent 70 make We fed him the
slops from the house, that otherwise
would have been wasted, with the run
of a little piece of pasture. That hog
that cost me 81 ten months ago is
worth S22 at the farm today. His
value has increased a thousand per
cent in ten months, at no cost TO me.
I'm going to get some sows and begin
breeding hogs, along with the oranges
The quick money returns from hogs
will certainly be acceptable while we
are waiting Tor the oranges to come
in. Southwestern Farmer

THE MODERN FARMER.

The farmer Of today is no more like
his progenitor than is the modern city
like the troglodyte. With his soil test
ing and his seed testing, his knowledge
of chemistry and bacteriology, his gas
oline engines and electric appliances,
his automobiles and his telephones,
the farmer of today is more truly a
scientific manufacturer than many OF
the men who are the heads of institu-
tons filed with intricate machinery.
The modern farmer plants and reaps
with an exactitule of purpose and a
certainty Of result that admits OF no
DISPUTE. He breeds his grains and
grasses. his fruits and flowers just as
he breeds his farm animals, and with
the sole purpose of continually I'M
proving the strain, increasing the yield
and advancing the general result
If the farmers position and impor-
lance to society has been misunder-
stood by the poor city toiler it is not
the farmers fault. 1t is time, however,
for the city man to wake up to an I'M
realization of the fact
that the farmer of today is a scientific
gentleman of such quality that he
rightly holds his position fairly at the
head of our wealth producers.-O

A HAPPY MAN.

1t is not often that one meets a real
philosopher man who, having sufi-
cient for the needs of the day, gives
himself over to the enjoyment of the
things he has, rather than to worry
over the things he has not. But real
philosopher dropped into the Signal
office a few days since. He is
farmer, and lives in Fannin county.
Nobody would think of calling him
rich. yet he is as rich as man can be,
for he has all he needs or desires. In

DYNAMITE IN AGRICULTURE.

Verify, the agricultural world is

what is said proves to be an improve

Science has added many things to
the farm. 1t is now asserted that
dynamite is adding its assistance TO
the better cultivation of the soil. And
why should it not?
The man who has piece of soil
with almost impenetrable subsoil or
hard pan, can, it is said, use a few
sticks OF dynamite per acre and shat.

penetrable to roots and eventually a

will be able to shatter the earth below

that it will thereafter put forth more
energy above the ground, not having
to exert so much below

if his land lies in low places, set out a
row of dynamite sticks and with one

WIRELESS TELEGRAPH
MANAGER COMING.

Secretary Hewitt, of the Commercial
Club, received telegram today from
the Texas manager of the Collins
Wireless Telegraph Company asking
for an audience with the people Of
Bryan next Friday night with regard
to locating a wireless station in this
city. After consultation with the pres
ident of the club and other citizens, it
was decided to ask him to come. and
Mr. Hewitt wired him this afternoon to
come.
The meeting will be at Carnegie hall
at 1880 o'clock Friday night, and it
is desired that a large and representa-
tive gathering of the citizens be pres
ent and hear the proposition. Bryan
is right up-to-now in everything, and
while these wireless stations are being
established in the leading cities OF
Texas, Bryan should certainly get one.

FRANK PUTNAM'S OPINION.

Wall street controls both the repub
lican and democratic national party
machines. There won't be any real
deep downward revision of robber tar
ifs until the socialist party casts a
million votes for its presidential
ticket. That will take place in 1912.
And that big vote for genuinely
democratic principles will throw such
a scare into the tariff thieves that
they will be glad to make some good
sized concessions.
