THE F.4RMERS OPPORTUNITY.

The farmers of Mississippi and indeed the entire country never
had a better opportunity in the history of the country, and particu-
lany is this true of the Southern farmer. Everything that is pro-
duced on a farm is now marketable at good prices. There can
scarcely be mentioned any product of the farm that will not now
sell at such prices as will Justify the most careful attention and that
will not yield handsome returns. Our Cotton is King IN the abso-
Lutte sense and if the farmers could keep the wolf from their door
while making cotton at 6 and cents, those who make itt today and
sell it at from II to is cents ought to be exceedingly prosperous.
Aside from agricultural products, the stock raiser never had a
better field and a more golden opportunity. With beef cattle selling
in St Louis at from s to 10 cents on foot and hogs at similar figures.
there should be an awakening among the agricultural classes and
stock raisers that would make every man who owns a home in this
country realize his Independence and make him to know that he
holds the key that will admit him to the door of prosperity and
plenty. The farmers are truly the architects of their own financial
standing today.

Louisiana sugar planters and the New Orleans press are vocfer-
Gus in their pleas not to disturb the tribute the balance of the coun-
try is required to pay to the cane growers of that state and other
parts OF the country. 1t IS time to cease requiring the balance of us
to go down into our pockets to help maintain the sugar growers. If
they have not learned to stand alone in all these years they never
will. The theory of requiring one mar to pay another to carry on
his own business is wrong in principle. There have been few things
that have done more to debauch the moral integrity of the country
than the protective tariff. The time has arrived when the tariff
should be for the purpose of revenue only.

Baked Peas.

Now that it is between times of old
and new vegetables, try this recipe:
Baked peas: One-half pound dried

teaspoonful sugar, pinch of soda, a
generous tablespoon of butter, water.
Soak peas over night, put in bean
crock in the morning with the other
ingredients and cover with water.
Bake six hours or all day in slow oven,
adding water when it evaporates.
When ready to serve remove onion
and carrot. This dish will be found
very nutritious and appetizing.

Mostly Yearlings.
Most OF the elk we are shipping,
said Robert Downey, who is In charge
OF the transportation work, ARE year
lings, averaging from 300 to 500
pounds In weight. The state which Is
to receive the elk is required to pay
all expenses of capture and shipment.
All the elk in the Yellowstone region
are fat and In prime condition this
year. They look much better than
last year. and consequently are In
first-class condition for shipping. The
railroad journey Is hard on them.
Once on their new range, they will be-
come used to changed conditions In.
short time. and they ought to do well
In their new homes"
The scenes in the elk region OF
Wyoming during the last two years
are described as heartrending. The
starving elk, driven to the lOwlands
by the high SHOWS in the mountains
found most of the range fenced in by
ranchers. In many cases they broke
down fences and demolished the hay
stacks of the ranchers. They ate the
willows along the streams, and grad
ually grew weaker and weaker. and
finally sank down to die in the snow.
Immediately they were pounced upon
by magpies and other birds. and their
eyes we're picked out, in many cases
before the elk were dead.
In all, the government has appro-
priated close to 100000 for elk pro
lection The appropriation Is general
ly approved, as it will result in re-
plenishing the depleted elk ranges OF
many states, and will give the fast
disappearing elk Of this country new
lease of life.

Cut glass must be handled very care

will help.
Place In wooden bowl some shaw

these boiling water.
When the water has become luke

glass in second wooden bowl, this

Now dip the glass into third bowl

LIME REQUIRED FOR ONIONS
Soil 10 Made Looser and Therefore
More Productlve-Success At
tributed to Substance.

Much of my success in growing big
onions, many specimens weighing q
pound and half apiece, attribute to
q free application of lime to the land
in spring, says the Farm and Fire
side. Likewise, believe that similar
applications, just before sowing the
seed OF the Portugal onion early in
August have helped me to get re-
markably fine stand and growth.
I have used manures right along,
year after year. The land Is rich. The
fine and almost spontaneous growth
Of clover on any patch that Is left
to itself for while would hardly show
that there is any need Of lime. Yet.
owning perhaps to faulty drainage. the
land often turns up rather soggy, with
close texture. Lime seems to make
It closer, and therefore more produc-
tive.

Compressed sponges.

A compressed sponge is bit Of
toilette daintiness intended specially
for travellers, though it appeals as well
to the stay-at-home who is an ultra
hygienist. The sponge is of COM
pressed absorbent cotton about the
size of twenty-five cent piece, and
half an inch in thickness. Dropped
into water it becomes saturated and
expands to the size of small face
cloth, large enough to wipe the face
free from dust and CRIME.

BENEFICIAL EFFECT OF LIME
Substance Improves Sandy Soils BY
Making Them More Compact and
Retentive Of Moisture.
(By B. II. HITE.)

(By B. II. k111E.J
Nothing in agricultural science OF
practice may be mentioned with more
assurance than the beneficial effect OF
lime on easily puddled stiff clay soils.
This is so nearly a matter of common
knowledge, the wonder is that anyone
will worry along with such soils year
after year, and even from one genera
ton to another, while the possible in
crease in yield in a single year will
often pay for the necessary lime.
Lime may improve loose sandy soils
