HOGS TO QUIT ROOFING.

1t is wonderful how experts do
trouble themselves. One of these in
the east has lately been 'studying''
the hog, and trying to find out for the
benefit of the farmers, whether there
will not be time in the far away
when there will be rootless hog; in
other words, when the hog will be
educated out of the habit of roofing.
He decides that after awhile the hog
will cease to be a rooter, and the
expert" steps out in broad day light
as a great helper of the farmers.
We are sorry the poor man took
upon himself such an arduOus task
purely for the benefit of others. 1t
could not result in any benefit to him
self, for he never raised a hog and
never expects to. But farmers have
known for several years exactly how
to make rootless hogs. A ring or two
properly applied and firmly attached
does the ess.--Up-TO-Date Farm

THE COMMON WOOD LOUISE.

In setting out young pecan trees in
exposed situations where they were
likely to be run over, I have put down
pine stakes near them to serve as
protection. The little tree would make
a good beginning in growth, but in
few months would halt and soon take
on that puny look, noticed in trees
that are preparing to die back. AS
mine were cut back at transplanting
time and had received good attention,
there was no cause for dying back.
Still the tree would die, and on dig
ging it up the roots would be fairly
riddled by wood lice. The end of the
pine stakes that had been in the
ground were in the same condition.
These insects are dearly fond of pine
wood, and the stakes, although sound
when put down had evidently been
their breeding place and starting
point. So it is that steps taken for
the preservation of a tree sometimes
lead to it's destruction.-Farm and

recently published in your

nail on the head. Responses from
your readers from South Carolina to
Texas show that | CHANGED TO send it
forth at the psychological moment.
In length, breath and size, the field
is more inviting than l reckoned it.
A gentleman in South Carolina,
wrote me concerning the blue goat
which was popular in Georgia and
South Carolina in the sos. [ remem-
Der to have seen goats of that variety
of breed in Augustus Dublin
the home of great number of most
sturdy and clever lrishmen.
A very interesting bit Of history
attached to the blue goat. He was
esteemed the best of his race, indeed,
the preferred of all native goats.
My friend, Col. Van Kaub, of Texas,
informs me that he purchased in New
Orleans, some years ago, a fine buck
of the breed. He bred him with great
success. The Georgia blue was placed
at the head of flock of so nannies
some of them blueish in color,
few a light cinnamon, the remainder,
partly gray or the color Of their dam.
When the choice Of the flock were
one year old, they were bred to their
sire The kids were blue except two
which were roam. These three-quart-
er goats were large and vigorous.
A late breeding gave a pure type of
the Georgia blue goat. These goats
proved to be immensely popular. Per-
sons visiting my friends goat farm
and dairy, in search Of milch goats,
were instantly Captivated by the
Georgia Blues. My friend, not being
DESTROYS to part with the breed, ad-
vanCed and then doubled the price,
but visitors would have none other.
One day, a gentleman appeared who
came from California with view to
the purchase of a number Of the
best obtainable mich goats. A good
bunch of the Georgia blues were on
hand. The moment he saw those
goats he wanted them. My friend
thought to run him off, so he said
Il will not take less than 500 a
trio for the Georgia blues. How
many have you?" inquired the Cali
fOrnian. The number was stated.
Il will take the whole bunch at 500
per trio" WhereupOn he reached for
his pocket book. To the discomfort
of my friend, the Californian took
them all.
Now, then, we must get the blue
goat back into Georgia and South
Carolina. In the interest of the peo-
pie, | shall endeavOr in my out Of
work hours to locate a bunch Of the
Georgia blues.
Upon information, perfectly reliable,
I made a statement in my story that
seemed increditable. 1t was a COM
parative statement as to the superior
ity of the milk of the goat over that
of the COW. The statement touched
the subject relatively Here is an
analysis that bears directly on that
point:

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
With the approach of the formal
opening of the new business year
commonly assumed to begin on
Sept. l merchants and fnanciers
are naturally studying the prospects
with a view to making their calcu-
lations and arrangements and revis-
ing their credits Business activity
depends largely on the outcome of
the staple crops of any given section,
and this is particularly true of a
community like New Orleans, where
manufacturing figures but moderate
~ in comparison with the distribu-
ton of agricultural products and
the forwarding of supplies needed
by the people of the interior.
For several years past the cotton
production of. the section tributary
to New Orleans has been materially
cut down by the ravages of the boil
weevll. Louisiana alone, which for
merly produced anywhere from 700,-
600 to 1000, 600 bales, found her
production cut down to barely ESQ.,
600 bales. This shortage in cotton
production represented an enormous
loss to the purchasing power Of the
whole state. Hence, it is not sur
prising that the commerce of New
Orleans felt severely the effects of
this impoverishment of the section
upon which it largely depends for
It's trade. The situation was nearly
as bad in the best districts of Mis-
sissippi, which have always been our
staunch customers.
This year a determined effort has
been made both in Louisiana and
Mississippi not only to replace cot
ton production by other industries,
but also to revive the production of
good cotton crops as we'll. There is
now an excellent promise that the
cotton crop of this state will show a
substantial increase this season and
the prospects for a larger yield in
the boil weevil districts of Missis
sippi will also be realized, This
revival OF the cotton-producing In
dustry in U tributary district is
certain to make business more pros
porous in New Orleans during the
coming winter; especially as the
larger cotton yield is certain to be
supplemented by one of the largest
sugar crops the state haseyer grown.
The rice prospects also point to a
good yield.
With promise Of fine crops and
with business matters Other wise in
healthy shape there is every reason
10 expect q healthy commercial
development in this city during the
looming fall and winter. Money is
sure to be more plentiful in the trib-
utary country, and this prosperity
is certain t. Create an enlarged de-
mand for all forms of supplies and
Injuries. Oar foreign trade, which
has been good despite the draw
backs already mentioned, also
