The PinhoOker.

Tobacco growers commonly believe

can get better price for tobacco on ths
loose leaf market than the grower.
themselves obtain, says the CynthiAnI
Democrat. This is Of course ridiculous.
The buyers do not know in the vast ma
jority of cases who owns the tobacco on
which they bid They do not see the
tags except in occasional instances. fol
they have no interest in knowing the
ownership OF the basket. To them own
ership makes no difference whatever.
They want the tobacco and go after it if
it is of the quality their house demands.
The Pinhooker will buy, however, only
the best crops as rule, and he natural
ly seeks to get them at the lowest figure
possible. II he understands his busi-
ness he knows how to sort the baskets
to the best advantage, and in that has
the best of the average grower. Crops
on adjoining farms will differ widely
but usually each farmer thinks his crop
is as good as his neighbor's and ought
to bring as much money. The Pinhook-
er knows differently, and will buy the
best Of any two if he ican. The
grower across the road who puts his
crop on the market will believe there is
collusion between the buyer and the
Pinkooker when the latter gets the most
money. But the grower has one great
consolation; the Pinkooker will surely
go broke ii he stays at the business

Fighting by Southern Fed
erals"

We acknowledge with thanks the re
ceipt Of handsome volume of 400 pag-
es with the above title. It is by Mr.
Charles c. Anderson, Of Richmond, Va +,
who makes valuable contribution to
Civil War histoay and shows how great
the odds were against the Confederacy
whose courage and endurance were sub
lime.
The object Of the book is to show that
almost as many Southern men fought
in the Union as in the Confederate ar
mics. After an exhaustive research.
requiring much time and great labor,
Mr.. Anderson reaches the conclusion
that while less than a million Southern
ers composed the armies of the Confed-
eracy, 296, SO white soldiers living in
the South. 137, ,676 negro soldiers and ap-
proximately 200, 900 Southern born men
living in the North, aggregating 634, 255
Southern soldiers fought for the preser-
walton of the Union. These were in
large part from Maryland, Kentucky
and Missouri and East Tennessee, tho
the mountains of North and South Car
olina, Georgia and Alabama made con-
siderable constitutions. Kentucky fur
nirhed more Federal soldiers than the
State of Maine, her number being 75,-
200, which was greater than the enlist
ments from Connecticut, New Hamp-
shire, Vermont, Minnesota or Rhode Is
land.
There were 160 Southern Federal
generals and their achievements are
told of in volumes. Kentucky, as usual.
bore off many of the honors. The prin-
cipal battles of the war are described
with reference to the part these South
ern Federals played. and the book is
unique, interesting and instructive. The

What One Potato Will Do.

A lad in the outside Of Albany, N Y,
and only IL years Of age, has made a
world record. The State Board offered
prize for the largest yield from one
seed potato. Each contestant was fur
nished one potato Of special and unu-
sual variety in bis part Of the State.
Eugene Duraud raised and exhibited
6S5 pounds of potatoes, IL bushels Of
contest quality and size, and left at
homs unweighed about two bushels oil
exhibitable ones. So far as known. thi'
is fully twice the yield ever before
known from one potato.
The potato had ii eyes. Each OF these
was planted in a hotbed. When thu
sprout was about three inches high HI
cut il off and placed it in sand, where it
took root. Durand thea SET it out in a
soil adapted to potatoes. The sprouts
kept on growing and he kept on roofing
them and then transplanting them and

How to Judge People.

To get along with your neighbors, to
be on felicitous terms with your rela-
tiveS, 10 enjoy the organizations Of
society, such as churches and parties,
and 10 succeed in business, it is impor-
tant to te good judge OF men. Here
are few hints:
To judge men correctly you have 10
like them. You can never rely upon
your estimate Of any one you dislike.
If, therefore, certain person irritates,
angers or disgusts you, be careful to
form no judgment at all of him, for it
is sure to be wrong.
This is a very vital point. There is
no insight into character without love.
Just learn that truth by heart, please;
because it is about the truest truth
there is
To judge men justly you must be in
dependent of them. Your opinion Of
any one from whom you expect favors
or fear harm is not worth cent.
Vanity, pride, egotism and all such
forms of sensitiveness of self, are fatal
TO correct judgment.-Dr. Frank Crane.

HOG CHOLERA
IS AbA1ING

Fargo, N. D., Oct. 2s.-The hog chol-
era epidemic has apparently spent It's
force in this state. Hundreds Of farmers
rave lost practically their entire herds.
In some Instances every pig on the places
died, while in others u few remained. In
this county many farmers lost from 100
to 500 hogs. D..
In Empire township, around Absaraga.
only two farmers had less than fifty pigs
and some several hundred. The loss was
80 per cent. Former Speaker Twicheil
had several hundred and lost all but thir
teen.
Despite the heavy losses the farmers
are not dismayed. Many Of them are
disinfecting their pens or rebuilding
and will secure another lot of hogs
and try it again. Hog raising was nat
urally following the increased corn
acreage and the combination was work
ing as a certain source Of revenue. The
spread Of the disease In this state is
traced to shipments of newly-purchased
hogs from states TO the south and from
exhibiting hogs at fairs.
a few farmers had what are known
as the mule foot hogs, without the
split in the hoofs. This type, it is said,
withstood the disease much better than
othre varitles and as o result are greatly
i ndemand. Some breeders are switching
entirely to that variety.

The whole contention hinges on the

an unfair loss to him to be forced to
rebuild the same.
