A hog which is gaining in popularity
is the Hampshire, or thin-rind hog.
This breed is sometimes classed as a
medium between the lard hog and the
bacon hog. although it is generally
considered as belonging to the former,

the meat is very superior. Originally

Mother had been suffering with

One day asked her why she did
not give up coffee, as cousin of mine

But Mother was such slave to coffee
she thought it would be terrible to

Finally, one day. she made the
change to Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morning

BEST BREED OF HOGS
That Which Is Adapted to Meat
Market Demands.
After Making Selection Farmer Should
Stick to II and Endeavor to DE-
veiop II TO Its Most Per-
feet Condition.
By W. H. DALRYMPLE)

The question is often asked. What
Ii the best breed of hogs? In answer
ing this it may be said there is no one
breed of hogs that is best" for every
farmer. That which is best for one
may not be best for another. In q
general way the "best' hog is the one
the farmer likes. provided 1t is what
his market demands. Should his mar
ket want hog of the bacon type. then
one or other OF the breeds OF that
type would be best in his case. On the
other hand. should the most market
able be a fat, or lard hog, then the

best animal for him to raise would be
one or other Of the lard types. This
is a matter which the farmer will have
to decide for himself.
After the farmer has decided upon
the breed which he believes to be the
most profitable for him to raise, how
ever. he should then stick to that
breed and endeavor to develop it to its
most perfect condition. The most
famous individual hogs and the most
famous herds of animals have been
built up, developed and perfected, only
by sticking to the, breed and getting
the most out of 1t.
Take the "razorback." for instance.
Some writer has said that this breed
of hogs has no place in modern agri-
culture" II we consider the razor
back from the standpoint of breed
only, we fully agree with the writer
Just quoted, but even this hog is sus-
ceptible to much Improvement

kinds. on the best toi the native fe
males.
In some parts of the extreme south
the woods are full" OF razorbacks
and the problem there is how to get
rid Of them and at the same time
make the most out OF them. The first
step should be the conversion OF all
native male pigs into barrows. The
second should be the selection Of the

 PROVED TO BE POISON
NEGRESS APPEALS CASE BE. CAUSE VOODOO TESTIMONY
 WAS BARRED.

Little Rock, July 22.-Because the court refused to permit the jury to pass upon the superstition of negroes as to voodoo doctor, an appeal has been taken to the supreme court in the case of Hattie Emmons of Phil lips county, who was convicted of as- sault to murder and sentenced to serve five years in the penitentiary.
 The Emmons woman sent a bottle of whiskey and several bottles of beer from Helena to Ellen Hill, who resid- ed in Elaine. There was a sediment in the liquor which caused it to be ex- amined, instead of being the most at tractlve portion of banquet. The chemist stated that in each bottle was enough poison to kill several people.
 Because the two women had trouble over the husband of the Emmons woman, officers soon placed her under arrest, and it was found she had sent the whiskey and beer to her dusky rival.
 In the trial the attorneys for the Emmons woman undertook to prove that she had purchased love powders whic hshe expected to bring her hus- band back to her, and placed it in the liquor. The court refused to permit any testimony about voodoo doctors and love powders, and the woman was convicted.

SPLENDID CROPS
 ON PEN FARM

Little Rock, July 22.-The Arkan- sas Penitentiary Board held a short conference with Governor J. M. Flu trell regarding pardon and paroles he expects to issue .efore leaving the office, on Monday afternoon.
 The members of the board reported to him that the crop on the farm this year will be one of the best ever rais- ed in the state, and cotton stalks which have been pulled up in the field will average 200 bolls to the stalk. The corn has not done so well as it might, on account of the drouth.
 The board has made preparations to purchase new "gin stand" for use on the farm this year The old gin nlng machinery was so badly worn last year that several bales of cotton were lost because the lint was not closely removed from the seed. Bids have been asked for the gins, and they will be ready for operation by the first of September, by which time the long-staple cotton will be ready for picking
