Because there is no limit to knowl-
edge, there will be no limit to desire
in the human heart; consequently,
extravaganza is bound to grow more
and more with the whole people, and
the only disadvantage in this is when
desire for the trivial outweighs the
power and desire to produce the real

we acquire the feanCy. we are not
satisfied with the simple necessities
of life; indeed. things which were
thought luxurious by our fathers and
mothers have become necessities to
us.
The man who longs for something
outside the limits of his daily life and
proceeds to get it is extravagant. He
was satisfied with what he had until
he knew better.
1t has been said that the laborer
wants the best cuts of beef; he wants
his children to wear good clothes.

things mean. He knows they are

pitcher that had been left outside all

to go before the general knowledge
of their menace, to be replaced by
the most sanitary equipment. OF
course, this is as it should be, but
it necessarily adds to the cost of the
milk; someone must pay for the time
and trouble.
In every department of life this

that there are higher standards of

SMITH STUCK TOIT
While New York was joyously cele-
brating the marvellous progress in
navigation following the launching of
Fulton's "Clermont, one of the most
influential men in the history of
steamships, justly called the father of
Transatlantic steam navigation, re-
ceived not a word of commentator.
His name was Junius Smith, he was
born in Connecticut, and received the
degree of LID. from Yale College.
For thirty-one years after the "Cler-
mont" steamed up the Hudson river
little steam craft piled along the
rivers and occasionally along the
coasts. Junius Smith conceived the
idea that a steamship could cross the
ocean. 1t was met with derision. The
most learned men of the day agreed
that it was ridiculous to suppose that
steam, however practical it might be
in pushing a little craft from one
river port to another, could .propel an
ocean-going vessel against the ter
rible storms that swept the Atlantic.
Smith endeavored to charter a
vessel without success. He tried to
organize company, but not single
share of stock was subscribed. 1t
took six years Of untiring effort be-
fore the idea of the young American
was realized and the Sirius" in 1888
proceeded from the harbor of Cork
for America, or, as the newspapers of
the day had it, ito its destruction,
The Sirius, nineteen days later,
steamed into New York harbor safe
and sound and the era of Transatlan-
tic navigation by steam was begun. f

 The railroad accident at North Haven on September ?, imposed a heavy task upon those charged with the responsibility for the recovery of the personal property lest as a result of the accident. How great was the task involved in this case may be gathered from the fact that the spe- cial agents and claims department of the railroad now estimates that there has been recovered and returned to the proper persons personal property amounting in value to between S40,- 900 and s50.o00.

PYTHON HAD HAD FULL MEkL
No Less Than Six Ducks Taken From Stomach of Snake Shot by Hunt
 CTS in Bombay.

The Journal of the Bombay Ma tional Historical Society published the following account of the voracity of python. by Mir P R. Cadell, l. c. S: "On Nov. 10, 1912, during the Dewall holidays. while shooting at Popaturan near Yalva, in the Ahmedabad dis trict. l was walking after snipe in company with Mir l. H. E. Tupper, | c. &. when one of the beaters call ed out that there was a big snake. We found that it was a large python, lying torpid We proceeded to shoot it. and as it was lying half coiled up, it's body was naturally good deal in- jured in the process. Seeing a feath- CT sticking out of a wound, we told one of our men to extract the bird to which it belonged. He pulled a duck out of the wound. and took out five others. one after the other, six ducks in all. They were ali quite. or recent ly fresh. their feathers being com plete and none far gone in digestion. They looked as if they had all been swallowed at about the same time. There were gadwall md spotbill among the ducks. but We did not note the description of all the ducks. All had been swallowed head foremost. The python, when stretched out and roughly measured. was fully eight feet long. Is not this an unusually heavy meal for a python to make? shortly after. while wading in the water after a wounded duck. l saw a snake swimming near me. It made little attempt to avoid me. and shot 1t through the head. It was a py- thou about six feet in length

silo. He figures that the stoVer pays for raising the corn and that his 2,000 bushels are all clear profit. It means Sl ,500 Of clear profit on the corn if it sells for as much as 75 cents per bu shel. He does not sell it, but feeds it to stock and gets his money in pay for milk and pigs. In mid Massachu. setts man made $50 per acre on his corn.
 It may be thouoht that 1 have been selecting prize corn fields to mention, and 1 have. There is no reason why all corn should not be as good as the prize fields, allowing for different land. The prize fields were the ones that gave the big profits. But let us take an ex- ample that wastnot a prize field; at least was not planted or raised with any idea yf making of it a prize field. A man in western massachusetts, con cluded to blow up a meadow that had not been doing as we'll in grass as he thought il should. He plowed it and planted it ty corn, giving il only or ninary care. Nature was on his side, and in the fall ne found that he actu- ally had a champion field of corn-l23 bushels of shelled dry corn to the acre. His lanoswas not remarkable. He gave it only ordinary treatment. He got the corn that really took a prize, as he entered it after he was all ready to harvest il, and when he had been for some weeks ignorant of p,s progress.
 New England farmers are eo,sing more and more corn each ysSr The almost uniyersaI use of e ensiIaee for feed has promoted J,e raising of corn. For that feed it wax for many years the custom to use green corn, with the ears moi Flown. But after a while ripe ccsEP" became to be used, the ears osfng allowed to nearly ma 'u'e pe being cut into the siIo. Then su'lsSoody discovered that the fodder ssSf dead ripe icorn makes good silage, after the ripaned ears have been taken oti; and somebody discovered that the fodder was worth as much for feediug as the cost of growing the corn, leaV ing all of the corn for profit, which the prudent and thrifty farmes feeds to cows and hogs and takes his pay in milk and pork.
 Corn is fine, clean crop to raise. A l. most all the work may be done from seats of machines. The land can be plowed with a suIky blow, the ma nure put on with spTeader, the har- owing done with harrow, which the farmer rides, the planting done by horse planter, the eullivatiog done the same way, the husking done by a machine. fhout all farmer has lo do with his hands Is To cut the stalks and cart them to the silage cutter.
 There is large amount ef very good corn land in New Englend that is mol now utilized fer that crop. There is money in il, from around so acre up to S65, as we have seen. IL is 6 good business at so, as at that . man with loo acres of medium corn land can lay aside S2, 2,o00 year. Thai is certainly better than getting bare living and drawing upon the capita of the farm every year to pay th' taxes, or the doctors bills. But t' make money raising corn the farme has got lo be something of A bushes man, and go about the work as tn' man does who makes cloth, or shoes or new wsparers.-George French

fail to show any breed uniformly supe. rior to the others in economy o, gains. Pure bred and high grade hogs are, however, admittedly superior to scrub hogs in this respect.
 A snort description of three most popular breeds Of hogs may be of as. sistanee to farmers who are Dur. chasing hogs.
 The Poland China is a highly de. veloped type of fat hog, early matur. ing. medium prolific. usually of good quality and disposition. In selecting breeding stock of this breed special effort should be made to secure pigs from large filters, the greater per cent of which have been raised.
 The Duroc Jerseys belong to the fat hog type They are prolific. medium early maturing, medium as to quality and disposition. In selecting breed. ing stock of this breed. select pigs that are low set, deep bodied and with plenty of width of body.
 Berkshires are prolific, of gooi quality, medium early maturing and medium quiet and mild in disposition The young pigs are rather of bacon type, but we'll fed and finished theF mature into a good type of fat hog It is important to select breeding stock comparatively low-set and show ing good width of middle and hind quarters, and mild disposition.
 Good blood is as important in the case of hogs as in the case of any other class of livestock. and. consid ering the small investment necessary to purchase a pure bred male, or one or more pure bred sows, it will seem sound business wisdom for every hog raiser to breed only pure bred or high grade hogs. The breed chosen Is 0l secondary importance to the type and quality of the individuals.
 Young pigs make the most econom~ ical gains while they are young. The mothers should be fed well before the pigs are weaned and the young pigs be given a liberal ration that Will produce rapid growth as soon as they are weaned. It takes more grain Io' make gains as the pig gets older, SO tha it is important that pigs be m ished for market as early as possible
 Regardless of the breed, hogs, like other classes of stock, thrive besl when they are comfortable. Tne7 need shade and plenty of clean water in the summer, and dry, warm sleep ing quarters in the winter
