ABBOT DOM GASQUET
COMING TO CAPITAL
Head of Committee Named by
Pope to Revise VuIgate,
Reached New York Today.

Washington Knights of Columbus are
awaiting with interest the forthcoming
visit of Abbot Dom Gasquet. president
Of the English Benedictines and chair
man Of the committee appointed by
Pope Plus X to revise the Latin Bible.
or vulgate. a work that will require
about fifty years to complete. Abbot
Gasquet arrived in New York on the
George Washington this morning
to start on a tour OF the larger cities
and explain the progress made by his
commission In the last Ave years. The
date for his Washington visit has not
been set and Il has not been fully de-
termined whether his visit here shall be
before or after he makes a trip to the
Western cities.
This Is the first time since the year
81. when 81. Jerome completed the first
revision Of the Latin Vulgate. that the
work has been undertaken In such
way that II will be carried to compile
tion.
The work of Abbot Gasquet has at
tracted interest since II was begun in
1907 because Of the extensive search
through the archives Of European and
Asiatic countries for Biblical manu-
script. Since ST. Jerome's time there
have been several paruai reyfsfons
made, but II was not until 154S that a
revision was ordered by the Council OF
Trent This revision was not made
until 1890, and II was so unsatisfactory
that the edition was later withdrawn,
and now only forty-one copies are in
existence.
More Than Three Centuries.
The following year. 1881. new COM
mission was appointed and published
it's edition In 1892. II is this Latin text
that is in use today. It Is called the
Clementine Bible, after the Pope.
From the time of the publishing OF
this Bible Catholic scholars have held
that II was not complete and would
have to be revised some day. 1t was
more than three centuries later, how
ever, before the work was taken UP.
Able Gasquet and other members Of
the commission were given instructions
to determine the wording of the text
of st. Jerome's Latin translation Of
the year 81. Scholars were sent to
search the archives and libraries Of Eu-
rope. In all 1900 Biblical manuscripts,
containing 5000 pages, were brought to
light.
As the commission could not borrow
these, nor could they be bought at any

PACIFIC LOGGING CONGRESS

The Pacific Logging congress con-
venes at Spokane September Gath
and 25th in it's fifth annual session.
The purpose Of the congress is to ad-
vance the science of logging engineer
ing, applying steam and electricity
to the work of moving timber on the
ground where it grew, in all the var
ious contours of hill, canyon, gulch
and level forest.
More than half of the standing
timber in the United States is on the
Pacific slope, and is being cut at the
rate of eleven billion feet annually.
The great improvements made in the
mechanical devices for farming, min
ing, railroading and other industries
are not exceeded by those in the log
ging industry, and the slow OK team
dragging logs by chain are as much
out of date now in the active lumber
industry as are the wooden plows of
the Egyptians compared to the plows
of American manufacture today.

HOGS ON SMALL FARM.

Usually the man who has but a
small farm considers live stock out
of the question. But the farm is a
factory, be it large or small, and as
as factory it should be handled so as
to turn out as much finished product
as possible. The small farmer ca.
keep limited number of hogs econo-
mically. Even on the very small
farms of the irrigated sections of the
west few Lcgs are kept with sue
cess.
| During the past few years the sup
ply of hogs in this country has not
been equal to the demand, hence the
sustained high prices for hogs and
hog products. On great many med
ium-sized and large farms some are
making the mistake of breeding no
hogs at all, purchasing few breed
ers every year for their home meat
supply. One reason, of course, for
this is that of widespread hog losses
by cholera, yet this disease can prac-
tically be avoided by the serum treat
ment and cleaner methods in general
with the animals. Keep hogs from
infested grounds; keep them free
from lice and worms; keep them
from stagnant and polluted water,
and they will remain healthy.
The small farmer is in better
position to grow a limited number
of good hogs than the man, who cul-
tivates a large farm. He has more
| time to give them better care. Con-
ditions on the small farm are particu-
larly favorable for the breeding and
handling of pure-bred swine for sale.
The man who has less land to look
after has more time for other things.
Time and regular attention are very
necessary for the breeding and prop
er handling of choice animals of any
kind. Seldom the large farmer has
enough time to spare from other du-
ties to give good animals the atten-
tion they require and deserve.
Recently small farmer in small
farming section where few hogs are
kept decided to venture in the hog
business on, small scale. He made
up his mind to begin with the best.
Accordingly he purchased pure
bred young sow that farrowed sixteen
choice pigs in two litters the first
year. These pigs, being purebred
and eligible to registry. were offered
/ for sale to neighboring farmers, and
found ready sale at SIS each after
weaving. During the first year he
made clear profit on his young SOW
of nearly 5000, an had two pigs left
For the small farmer with time to
spare, there is good money to be
made in keeping, breeding and SELL
/ ing pure-bred hogs. There is an ac-
tive, wide demand for choice breed
ing hogs at present. The field is
wide and interesting. Still, if you
! do not care to keep pure bred hogs

it where it might grow. In this way
nature hired the birds to scatter cherry
seeds wherever they took the seeds to en-
Joy them. But men have so increased
the amount and quality of the pulp in
the cherry that people have become in
terested in carrying them all over the
world and scattering species themselves.
The same principle applies to other fruits
and to melons, tomatoes, corn potatoes
and numberless other products of the
farm and garden. Rhubarb or pieplant
was small plant with juicy stalk the
size of straw, and when people found
that it was mild tonic and had food val
ues, it was bred up and improved in size
and quality until now it forms a delicious
article of food especially suited for use in
the spring when the coming of warm
weather makes people relish the tonic it
contains.
Your mother can't afford to spend her
time peeling pieplant stalks the size of
straws when you, can raise them almost
as big as ball bat If you are fooling
along with a kind of pieplant that grows
only as large as lead pencils or as long
as your thumb or the size of the poker it
is time for you TO wake up and get some
thing better.
The same principle applies to every
thing grown on the farm, whether n
the fruit line OF the vegetable or amin !
kingdom, and it is for you to wake uo
orce a year at fair time Arl 60 whe"e
they are all assembled and see what yol
can find that will yield yeu better re-
turns than the ones you have been rails
ing. There is as much difference in hogs
and cattle as there is in rhubarb, and if
you look about you may find that you
are throwing feed into rat hole by rails
ing the lead pencil size or variety.
Your seed potatoes may have been the
best in their day, but their day is so short
you might better get new start.
When you 60 to the fair next week
will be good time for you to study these
matters and to resolve that you are 60
ing to get the best there is in the lines you
are going to grow, and make them do
their best. If you follow this resolution
earnestly year after year you will find
that success is attending your efforts.

Farming has always been the best bus
iness on earth, and banking close sec
ond. If you fail as farmer you might
try banking, but learn first how to farm,
and give it fair test. The men who
succeed best are those who get the best
seeds and the best breeds, and learn how
best to manage them. The hard part of
success is at the beginning, and if you get
the right start, all you have to do is to
keep trying and success follows
More has been done within the past
century, to make it easy for the boy to
start right, than was done in thousand
years before that, and we want to tell
you some thing about it.
A little over hundred years ago, Ma
poleon and his aides developed the sugar
beet They took it as mere root with
a trace of sweet in it, and by careful cul-
tivation and breeding, got it to yield FIVE
or six percent sugar. 1t has now reach
ed development of seventeen percent
sugar in the best tests, and this improve
ment is due to intelligent treatment of
the beet stock. You may be able to in
crease this to twenty-five percent if you
study the question and try carefully, and
that would mean new fortunes in the su-
gar business.
Most of the fruits and vegetables we
have today, have been developed from
something of little value; the apple was
mere bulb protecting clump of seeds,
and it was strong and unfit for food ex-
cept under the most favorable circum-
stances.
The peach was only a big seed covered
with thick fuzzy skin, but the skin was
encouraged to grow into delicious pulp
with fine coat.
The plum was merely tree seed with
bitter rind and little packing between
it and the seed, but it was cultivated I'M
til the packing became the main part of it,
and as the acid or bitter part was bred
out, the sweet wholesome parts were bred
in.
The cherry was a tree seed with pull
py coating, and when the seed was ripe
and ready to be carried away and planted
somewhere, there was mere speck of
sweet Juice in the pulp that served to re-
pay some bird for carrying it and leaving

you can grow annually few common
or grade hogs on the small farm WIN
scarcely missing the time and feedt
Every farm has waste products tnat
no animals but hogs can turn INTO
money. These consist of kitchen Stops
cull fruits and vegetables, and small
pasture lots. An acre or two OF
ground in alfalfa, clover, rape or
similar forage will support from ten
to twenty pigs for the growing sea-
son. with small amount of grain ana
concentrates What the pigs make on
pasture and waste products will be
almost clear gain. Some profit can
be made from the grain used. Even
large farmers and live stock grow
erspurchase grain for their hogs ana
other animals. 1t is claimed tnat IL
makes no difference in final profits
with hogs whether you grow or pur-
chase grain feed. The use of pur-
chased grain and concentrates Is q
means of turning your waste products
to account through the hogs. The
small farmer at least can grow his
own pork at from 3 to 4 cents a
pound, which is many times cheaper
than purchasing meat at the stores.
Here where alfalfa is grown more
cheaply than in most sections, hogs
can be raised with greater pront.
There is no cholera here unless in
fected hogs are shipped in from the
middle west. Southern Idaho farm
ers are rapidly learning about the
profits of the business as is evident,
from the fact that the outgoing ship
ments have more than quadrupled in
one year. 4
The Twin Falls tract, where alfal-
ia is very cheap, has in one years
time grown to be an important pro-
ducer of hogs. The Boise Valley q
few years ago, did not grow enough
hogs to supply the local market now
car after car is sent to the Portland
market.
Barley and wheat have proved al
most as good as corn for fattening
purposes after hogs have been grown
on alfalfa.

A PLACE FOR SHEEP
ON THE IDAHO FARM

In the central and far eastern states
small flocks of sheep are found on a
large percentage Of the farms. It has
been found that ewes and lambs on
the farm will make use of and do we'll
on some farm wastes and feed MATER
ial unsuited to other animals that
seep consume and keep down 80 per
cent of the various farm weeds and
help in holding down brush and under
growth, will make good returns from
rough and unproductive land and re-
turn the farmer fleece worth 81 to
$2.25 and a lamb that can be sold at
from SO to 81 in late summer or fall.
And the farmer does not miss the
feed stuffs that go to produce these
readily valuable products.
There is a similar field for small
hocks in Idaho and other northwest
ern states. In the northern and CEN
trail parts of the state, summer fallow,
full with weeds Guild be cleaned up and
made to yield profit through sheep.
Lanes, rough lands, aftermath follow
ing the hay crop and waists of the
grain fields are often of little value,
but could be utilized to great advan-
tage by sheep. Roughage for keep
in a small band of ewes over winter
is ordinarily abundant. Great areas
in these sections do not grow enough
mutton to enable the local butcher to
depend for even reasonable percent
age of his necessary supply.
In southern Idaho are grain and
hay fields to be cleaned up, sugar beet
