THIS NEW FISH HAS FUR.
Polar Trout Is Discovered In Far
North by Explorer.

The polar trout, the only fur-bear-
ing fish known to natural history, is
the latest contribution Of the arctic
regions, according to John Bunker,
OF Northwood Center, n. H., who re-
turned to Boston recently after a
two months exploring trip in Green
land. He brought photographs and
specimens Of a strange fish, which he
has called a polar trout.
This peculiar denizen Of the polar
seas resembles a square tail trout in
shape and gamenesS and attains ten
to fifteen pounds in weight. The
skin is covered with fine brownish
fur, resembling the texture of mole
skin. This fur is lightly spotted with
white.
Bunker caught three specimens.
two in a river and one in small
headwater pond about 200 miles
north Of BafIin Bay

or no practical results. The evil is
probably the worst that afflicts a GER
tain class of American citizens, and
nothing short of q vigorous national
campaign against it will ever accom-
plish much. The gathering of sta
tistjCs as to the users and vendors
will accomplish more, doubtless, than
any other method looking to the ex-
termination of the evil. The vendor
is a viOlator Of law and subject to
heavy penalty if convicted; the user
is Invariably ashamed OF his practice
unless he has gone so far with the
drug that he has lost all self-respect
and even the semblance of manhood.
With the national governments
forces aligned in work Of eXtermi-
nation Of the narcotic drug evil,
there is hope OF saving many from
themselves. The work by States o.
local government is a hopeless task.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition Of the mucous lin

this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
liammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;

Plot Was Carefully Laid.

Managua, Nicaragua, Nov. 6.-The
frustrated plot to asassinate Presi-
dent Adolfo Diaz, of Nicaragua, and
all his cabinet ministers on October
goth, was laid with remarkable care,
according to details published here.
The plotters are members Of the
Liberal parties. They divided them
selves into three groups. The first
group was to kill the President and
two cabinet members; the second
was to assassinate the Vice President
and minister of foreign affairs, and
the third was to hurl dynamite into
the chamber Of deputies. The dis
covery of the conspirators when they
were holding a meeting to arrange
the final details was entirely acci-
dental. Nearly all the conspirators
have been lodged in Jail.

WALI!ALIIA, s. c.:

AND Still NO LIGHTS.

Another hope of lights has gone!
At least for the present it seems that
there is nothing in store for the peo-
pie OF Walhalla and community in
the way Of modern lighting Of streets
and homes. And why? lGvCry Citi-
zen who has even a small amount Of

own satisfaction. A few years ago
The north side Of Euclid avenue, be-

streets, installed a block Of ornamen-

magical. That side Of the street was
crowded, the other side deserted.
Real estate values increased on the
illuminated and decreased on the
dark side. Not until both sides were
equally well lighted was CONNER
cial equilibrium established on that
particular section of Euclid avenue
similarly, Minnesota street, between
4th and 9TH streets. in st. Paul, was
transformed from a gloomy thor
oughfarc, tlanked by dilapiiated
structures, into a prosperous street
in which new buildings took the place
of the old--a result accomplished en-
tirely by street lighting.
Three hundred cities in the Uni
ted States and Canada have tried or
namental street lighting and have
found that it pays as a municipal in

Five Years Experience With Fall
Flowing.

Five Years Experience With Fall
Flowing.
(By c. G. Roberts, Dixon, Miss.)
The question Of fall plowing can
| not be properly settled by simply
stating that it is best to break all
next spring is the best time, because
conditions vary and these conditions
must always be given consideration.
Our mild climate and heavy rain
fall, taken advantage of, with crops
on the land all the time, would in
deed be a valuable agricultural as
set; but this same mild climate and
heavy rainfall not taken advantage
of, with our fields left bare, be-
comes the source Of our agricultural
weakness and poverty.
From experience and observation
the past five years have reached the
following conclusion in regard to fall
plowing: If the land is level or such
that great washing is not likely to
occur and contains a vast amount of
humus, breaking is advisable. This
vegetable matter will add much to
the crops the next year, as it will be
decayed by spring; furthermore, the
preparation can be more easily done.
On the other hand, if the land
washes, you had better let it alone
unless breaking can be done early
OctOber-and a cover crop planted.
This cover crop can take up plan:
food that might be leached out dur
ing the winter rains, especially nitro
gen. The green cover crop will de-
cay when turned in the spring much
easier than the dry matter left from
the previous crop-the old stalks,
grasses and vines. The decay Of the
old crop Of plants plus the green win
ter cover crop and the saving Of nj
trogen makes fall plowing valuable.
v-dL2rmH
My cotton crop OF 1911 demon
strated the value Of fall breaking of
/ land and sowing same to winter
! cover crop, and the saving Of nitro
gen makes fall plowing valuable.
One acre which was broken with
two-horse plow to a depth of six or
seven inches the previous fall and
| seeded to rye gave me an increased
yield Of $12 over the other acres. All
the cotton land grew peas the prev-
Gus year and was practically the
1t Df.
hence a good investment. The labor
and seed cost $3.50 for this acre,
! leaving $3.50 net profit
The only disadvantage | am able
to see in fall plowing is where the
farmer fails to plant a winter crop
on land that easily washes.
A barren soil broken in the fall
which is subject to washing and not
cases prove a detriment to the next
crop. This was demonstrated in this
section few years ago.
! Our deep plowing should be done
in the fall while the subsoil is dry,
with large two-horse plows and left
in the rough, the only exception be-
ing with the Oat crop, which should
have a smooth surface for the benefit
Of the mower. The surface should
! be left-that is, broken broadcast in
stead Of in ridges. A middle burster
| is n good tool with which to turn un-
der large amount Of vegetable mat
ter on ridge land by beginning at the
! lower side Of the field or piece and
! finishing at the upper side.

The Season for Pork.

This is the best time of the year to
eat pork. Warm weather is the worst
time. Then, in fact, pork ought to have
the weather the better is pork 1t is too
digestion to be a good hot-weather dish.
A leg of pork makes the most appetite
ing roast. Choose a young one. Mix a
little ground sage and chopped onion and
spread it over the surface of the pork
with seasoning of pepper and salt.
Roast in hot oven. When it is half
done cash the outer skin, but do not cut
into the flesh. Serve with this sauce:
Heat two cupfuls of milk in a double
boiler with a chopped onion and cupful
of fine, stale breadcrumbs. Cook for ten
minutes and then beat with an eggbeater.
Season with salt, paprika and dash of
mace and two tablespoonful of butter.
Serve cold slaw and apple sauce with
this pork dish.
Here is an old-fashioned recipe for salt
pork with milk gravy-a dish that our
ancestors liked and one that will be
found delicious: Cut salt pork into thin
slices and, If it is too salt. soak it in
cold water for ten minutes. Then drain
1t and cash the rind in three or four
places i'll each slice. Fry the slices
Drown. IN the meantime Dedt Two TABLE
spoonfuls of fat with two of flour and
stir in cupful of milk to make a smooth,
creamy sauce. Serve the pork with the
milk gravy. With baked potatoes and
apple sauce this is delicious.
Pork tenderloins are veritable dainties.
They can be broiled, baked or fried but
must be cooked quickly enough SO that
they are not made dry or tough. To
broil them, have hot flame and broil
them, first on one side, then on the
other, on a creased broiler. Spread them
with butter and season them with pepper
and salt Arrange apple croquettes about
them and garn.Sh with parsley. When
you bake them. put them in buttered
casserole. Moisten them with their own
gravy when they are dished up and serve
with apple sauce. II you try them use
lard or drippings. and turn them con-
stantly until they are cooked through
and well Drowned. Serve with baked
sweet potatoes and fried hominy cakes.
A savory pork roll is made of two parts
Of chopped salt pork and one part of
lean beef, chopped. Press the meat into
shape and brush the outside with very
fine crumbs or flour. Lay a few slices
of thin salt pork over ii and bake 1t
brown in the oven, basting 1t frequently.
Serve with baked onions and apple
sauce.
thoroughly cooked to be most wholesome.
and that to be most appetiZing it must
be served with apples in some form,
baked, made into sauce or fritters or
fried. 1t is always delicious with sweet
potatoes, and hominy is another good
accompaniment to 1t.
