Although the average annual pro-
duction of tobacco in the United
States reaches nearly one billion
pounds, for which the farmer receives
about 100000, 900. the net profit to
the farmer is much smaller than 1t
should be. Among the principal
causes for small profits from such an
Important crop are failure to follow
sound cultural methods. use Of un-
adapted varieties or strains, damage
by insects and diseases, and imper-
feet knowledge Of the principles that
apply to the processes Of curing. fer
menting and handling the leaf. To
remedy these conditions the Depart
ment of Agriculture In 1898 began to
investigate the improvement Of to-
bacco production.
Efforts to introduce the growing of
a high-grade cigar filler leaf from Gu
ban seed in the southern states have
that this industry can
be made a success. A satisfactory
substitute for the imported Sumatra
wrapper leaf has resulted by growing

ROUND DAIRY STABLE
In Many Respects More Desir-
able Than Other Styles.
Among Other Things Has Special Ad-
vantage In Work Of Distributing
Silage to Cows-CIrcuIar Con-
structlon Strongest.
By W. J. FRASER.)

The round barn has a special ad-
vantage In the work Of distributing
silage to the cows. Feeding COM
nences at the chute where it is thrown
down and continued around the circle
ending with the silage cart at chute
again ready for the next feeding.
The same is true In feeding hay and
grain.
AnoSr.- great advantage is the
large LhaSstructed haymow. With
the s.'asU3psSting roof there are no
timbers ynsrs+er obstructing the
NOW, which neans no dragging of
hay around or over posts or Orders.
The hay carrier runs on a circular
track around the NOW, midway be-
tween the silo and the outside wall
and drops the hay at any desired
point, which means the saving of
much labor.
The circular construction is the
strongest because 1t takes advantage
OF the lineal instead Of the breaking
strength OF the lumber. Each row of
boards running around the barn forms
4 hoop that holds the barn together.
Any piece Of timber is many times
stronger on a lineal pull than on a
breaking stress.
All exposed surfaces of a round barn
are circular, as both the sides and
roof are arched. which Is the strong

Newspapers and Literature.

All this over emphasis of the un-
meaning surface is due to a confusion
of newspaper and literary standards,
ends, aims. The word literary has come
to suggest an absence of red-blood;
spinners and knitters in the sun; the
35 cent magazine crowd; this is nom
sensical. of course. In its elemental
meaning literature is at least as stern
a jab as journalism. albeit the inten-
ton and function of the latter is mere
ly to present things that happen, of
the former to volatilize such material

OTHERS KNOW US TOO WELL
Rest Of the World 10 Gener-
ally Too Wise.

Senator Pomerene has a happy
knack Of driving home a statement
with an epigram.
At luncheon Senator Pomerene
described a would-be literateur.
Thanks to whisky and strong
cigars" he said, "the poor fellow has
failed to make good. He earns a pre-
carious living by newspaper work,
but, though he Is so now, none OF the
wondrous novels and thrilling stories
that he used to pirate about have ap-
peared.
And yet, in his shabby apartment,
over a bottle of cheap liquor and
box OF cheap cigars, he will boast by
the hour-poor, gray, wrinkled duffer
of his unfinished MSS. Oh. they
will appear yet! Yes, he will yet H.
iumine the world with the light OF his
genius"
Senator Pomerene sighed and con-
cluded:
"Ah, II we could deceive others as
easily as We deceive ourselves, what
regulations we'd all have, to be sure!"
