The small tIrnip-rooted radishes are
the best for early use, preference be-
ing given to either red or white; the
olive-colored ones are usually less crisp
and tender, as well as less inviting
in appearance.
Among the peas we have found no
other early ones so good or so produc-
tive as the Gradus. So many Of the
early varieties are exceedingly dwarf
in size and in habit of the peas.

Gambling Between Acts.

1t would be difficult to imagine any
thing more incongruous than the pro
duction of NJ Maeterlinck's great
sacred drama of Mary Magdalen at
Nice. It is a remarkable play, full Of
grand conception and real religious
spirit. The Saviour is never seen in
this passion play, but his presence is
keenly felt. Nine. Maeterlinck, the
wife Of the poet, played the part of
Mary Magdalen with wonderful sym
pathy and conviction. But the in
congruity of it all lay in the fact that
between the acts the audience lost

ground until 1t Is warm and dry
enough, so that the earth will crumble

But peas, onions, lettuce, and rad
ishes will stand quite an amount OF

be planted very early, with the assur-
ance that while they may not prove

everything in rows. Then then pos.

Farmers Should Raise Hogs.

Because Of his saving qualities he ha:
been dominated as "The gentleman
that pays the rent for the householder
thelmortgage litter for the farmer"
In the past he was adopted by the
farmers Of the corn and hof belt as the
only feasible way Of marketing the
corn crop. Being turned into the field
and fattened, this was known as "hog-
ging the corn," thus saving jail Of the
labor of gathering, storing and feeding
out again.
AT times, when the crop was an over
production and the prices were below
the 5O-cent mark at the farm, the hog
was used to market wheat.
He has done his part in converting
the bi-products Of the dairy and cream
cry into a merchantable article through
his stomach. He takes care of the BIZ
product Of distilleries, beet sugar
plants, Of the garbage the cities and of
many other factories where food pro-

In Texas and several southern states

corn, letting the pigs do their own
picking or digging, as you choose to
call it. The hogs can convert kafir
corn, milo maize, now [peas and soy
beans into choice pork that can be
cashed every day in the year.
Then again, he is forager; he can
grow on alfalfa and clover and several
other kinds Of pasture, but especially
is he adapted to converting alfalfa into
lean pork, which when balanced
makes one of the ideal feeds
for pork production at the cheapest
possible cost.
Then, again, while the sheep, cows
and horses will increase from 60 to 100
per cent annually, the hog will increase
from 500 to 1000 per cent annual. He
can be turned into the market as
a crop Of grain.
These are some of the reasons why
we claim that the hog is the greatest
of the fam animals.

THE FORESTRY BOARD.

The principal problem of the peo-
pie of the United States in the past
has been TO subdue the things OF
nature so that they may be used 10
the best advantage. So far this work
has been ruthless. especially in re-
gard to our timber lands. We Amer
leans have been so intent on our own
plans as TO give little thought 10 fu-
ture generations. Now we are wax
ing up.
The establishment of a state board
of forestry would be a good thing
in that it would tend to protect our
timber resources. IL is our timber
lands that have suffered the most at
the hands of ruthless and selfish men.
A board of this kind would show
these men what is right and what is
wrong in matters OF this sort.
The money spent for the state for
ester and his secretary would be
small compared TO the value OF our
timber lands. If he could aid three
or four men. each of whom owned
1000 acres of timber land, his sal
airy would be paid.

VIEWPOINTS
Change the Name.

Editor the Missourian: Confusion
resulting from the similarity in names
of two of Columbia's streets sent the
fire department to one place when
the fire was in another. AS it hap
pened, the fire was put out with lit
tie trouble despite the non-appearance
of the fire wagon.
The blaze was at 209 Christian Col
lege avenue and the call to the de-
partment said 209 College avenue. If
it had been a large fire, the house
probably would have been destroyer
before the department could have
reached it. Such a thing may never
occur again, but no chances should
be taken.
Tenth street north of Walnut street
is called Christian College avenue.
The street here does not turn nor
swerve. and there is no reason why
it could not be known as North Tenth.
Then such a mistake would not be
repeated. HI. NJ.
