Imnraetieabllity.

This thing of doing In Rome as the
Romans do is not always the best
plan, says the Popular Magazine. II
you don't believe 1t Miss Jane Adams,
the famous sociological worker Of Chi
cago, will tell you a story to prove 1t.
Miss Adams knew a wealthy wom-
an who delighted In doing works Of
charity, such as sending missionaries
to foreign fields and on one occasion
she put up the money to send a mis-
sionary to the Caroline Islands. Soon
after his arrival on the scene Of his
activities the religious man sent his
benefactress a photograph Of himself
and his wife.
Whereupon the rich woman wrote
the man OF God a letter, suggesting
that his wife, in order to win the con-
fidence of the natives, should throw
away her fine clothes and wear the
costume of the islands. Two months
later she received this answer:
Enclosed Is the complete costume
worn by native women. My wife
awaits further word from you before
adopting It,"
The native dress consisted OF
piece of woven straw, two inches wida
and eight inches long.

Harry was a faithful servant OF

after a day in town, the mules hitched

of the plantation, with Harry pros

wagon. Here one Of his numerous
progeny, boy named Job, discovered
him. and unable to awaken his father,
or to secure any assistance from Har-
rvs disguised wife. he appealed to the
planter. who had the mules unhitched,
covered Harry with blanket and with
his own hands dragged the wagon UNI

Next morning Harry woke hazily
and sat up, rubbing his eyes. "Job!"
he cried aloud; ''hurrah here. Job!"
and when Job had come under the

Job sulkily explained how 1t had

BURN OUT THE BOIL WEEvIL
Chief Object Of Destruction Of Cotton
Stalks In Fall ls to Deprive
Insects Of Feed.

In the fight against the boil weevil
1t should always be remembered that
comparatively few Of the boil weevils
that are present in the fall live
through the winter and attack the
cotton in the spring. The earlier the
food of the weevils, which Is cotton
and only cotton, is destroyed in the
fall, the smaller the number of wee
wills that win live until spring.
From the fact that the weevils mi
CRATE chiefly in the fall when food
becomes scarce. and the further fact
that the earlier their food is de-
stroyed that and the only thing in
that that win perish during the winter.
says Progressive Farmer. it becomes
apparent that the chief object In the
destruction of the cotton stalks In
the fall is to deprive the boil weevils
of their food.
II has been stated that burning tn
stalks has In some cases destroyed
81 per cent. of the boil weevils. This
can, at best. be nothing more than a
random guess, but II II were true, It
makes little difference whether the
weevils are burned or starve to
death. Just so long as they die. The
important fact to be kept in mind
is the early destruction of the food
Of the weevils. There is no late or
top crop. for the weevils have de
stroyed that, and only one thing IN
the way of an early destruction Of
the cotton stalks is the picking Of
the crop made early In the season
There is no need Of destroying the
cotton stalks unless It is done early

You may breed the other to a first
class, sound. pure bred sire of excel

ing 1850 or 1000 pounds. the service
fee of which we will say costs you
500. The two mares are worked side
by side while carrying the colts. Inc
food cost of the one is the same as
the food cost Of the other, barring the
slight difference in individuality,
which always exists; the cost OF look
ing after the one colt at the time OF
birth is the same as the cost OF
looking after the other. The 1000
cost required to bring one colt to as
full development as is possible al
three years of age will differ but III
tie from the food cost Of the other. II
has been found that It costs. approx
imately, $3.50 to rear first-class draft
colt to three years Of age. This al
lows for a $40 service fee, for the
purchase of all food stuffs at market
prices for liberal feeding from birth
until three years of age. 1t is safe to
say that the cost of growing the
inferior colt and bringing him to as
full development as can be obtained
at three years of age. will be no less
than s120, counting in IS service fee.
This means, gentlemen, that you VIII
have a difference Of not more than $50
In the cost of rearing first-class colt
and a decidedly inferior colt, to three
years of age, even. taking into con-
sideration the difference In service
fee. These figures are extremely con-
bservative.
The colt from first-class draft sire
will weigh around 100 to 1.76C
pounds and will (unless the cross
proves a violent one) be OF such type
and soundness as to be worth at least
SIS more than the colt from the In
ferior, understood grade sire. II
many cases the difference would be al
least $50.

DRAFT HORSES NEEDED
Majority of Southern Animals Of

Farmer Must Secure Pure Bred slrcs
to Build Up Present Understood

ment Stations.
By WAYNE D1NsMoRE.)

1t Is necessary that you should have
a good supply of good pure bred draft
horses, If you are to produce grade
draft mares OF suitable size and con-
formation for farm work and mule pro-
duction. You cannot go into the north
and west and buy such grade draft
mares as cheaply as you can rear them,
for the farmers of the north and west
are not sufficiently supplied them
selves with mares of the right weight
and type.
Grade draft mares have been sell
ing on the open market at from $500
to $500 per head and have been taken
up with avidity by buyers who have
been distributing them to farmers who
cannot buy such animals in their own
communities.
You must have pure bred draft

mares. From what / have been able
