Some Iowa farmers advocate pigs
As antidotes for dandelions. Just
fence in your lawn and turn a pig
inside. they say, and the dandelions
will soon be gone. No doubt. but
what about the lawn? pigs in clo-
yer" may do little harm. for moving
machines are heavy, enough to trav-
erse hog-wallowed ground. but the or
dinary lawn mower would make slow
progress over a thoroughly rooted
yard. The pigs. we are assured. will
go after the ,dandelions in earnest. be-
cause they like them; they will not
merely nibble on the tops. but go
down Into the soil and get the roots.
That sounds like good thing. But
after getting all the roots OF the dan
delions what then? Possibly a we'll
hammered pig would not molest the
grass. but all pigs are not well-man-
nered. Besides. our city ordinances
are so esthetic regarding the matter
of pig culture in front lawns that an
obstacle seems to arise there. says the
Omaha Bee. 1t may be over-much
skepticism, but somehow there is an
Ill odor Of suspicion about this pig
scheme making good.

Will be the most prosperous year In

900 and cantaloupes $316,O0O, making
Ia total of $S,41S.500. To this will have
to be added the amounts received for
all of the minor crops, no estimate
upon which has been furnished.
In the opinion of well-posted men in
the valley the railroads are going to
experience difficulty in providing
enough box cars to haul the crops

sion is made for their transportation

there are some persons who hold In
contempt the man who does not make
a stir in the world. says the Charles
ton News and Courier. 1t is not al
ways the quality of the work that
counts, but rather Its spectacular ef-

away and leave exposed the rough
surfaces cannot be questioned. and
then 1t is that men turn with conf
dence to the results of the unobtru-

head. In recent article on the sub
ject the writer says of the quiet work
er that he builds for eternity. and
that eternity alone can discover the
fine finish OF his workmanship We
can take piece Of furniture and
paint on 1t as brilliant a gloss as we
wish for, but 1t will not be long be-
fore the cheap brilliancy furnishes and
shows in all its ugliness the painted
wood beneath. On the other hand.
the fine finish which the master work
man gives to the article he is re-
storing is attained only after the most
honest and painstaking efforts, which
he directs not to the attainment of
immediate final results, but to results
which lead gradually to the beautiful
finish which crowns his work.
