Publication In Old Rome.

Some publishers in ancient Rome
could turn out books rapidly and
cheaply. A publisher OF the Angus
tan era produced 1000 copies Of the
second book OF Martial in ten hours,
and these sold at about twelve cents
apiece, gave him a profit OF 100 per
cent. This was done by employing
slaves carefully traiDsd to write swift
ly and legibly. Working In patches
OF 100, with an overseer debating the
book In hand. the task was completed
In a very short time. AS soon as the
copies were written they were re-
vised. corrected. rolled up and bound.
Being slaves. the men required only
maintenance from their master, and
thus he could AFFORD to sell the pro-
auctions at a very low rate.

BEST FERTILIZER

Trials Have Proved That Mixture
OF Artificial Manure Produces
Excellent Yields.

Numerous experiments have proved
the high value OF a mixture of arti.

OF four hundredweight OF superphos.
phate and two hundredweight OF sui.
plate OF ammonia and I'VE hundred
weight OF sulphate OF potash per acre.
This dressing should give a good

nure is available, though ten toni
OF that manure per acre Is a valu.
able addition. when the last Ia ap-
piled the sulphate OF ammonia and
potash may be reduced 20 half a
ton each. Trials have proved that
these manures produce their best re-
suits when placed In drills under the
seed potatoes. Growers who plant
only a few rods may have dificulty In
getting locally small quantities OF the
artificial named: but there
are some large town firms who sell
them by the bags. A ready-made po-
tato manure from a firm OF high repu-
tation may answer equally well, al.
though II will cost a little more than
its constituents cost when bought by
the ton. A deep stirring OF the soil,
without bringing the sub-soil to the
top. is a security against drought.

GREEDY HOGS ARE
MOST DESIRABLE
Breeders Might Well Devote
Themselves to Developing
Appetite Instead OF Points.

The Oregon agricultural station has

divided into three lots. the heaviest
eaters In one lot. and the others grad.
ed according to their capacity for con.
Stunning feed.
A hundred hogs like the heaviest
eaters, at the rate OF gain made and
present prices. would make a profit OF
$297.65, or almost exactly SO a head.
A hundred like the poorest feeders
would have made a profit OF 8ll5,65, or
only a little nor than a dollar a
head. They were evenly graded as
TO size and sex. II there is this great
difference between the heavy eating
hogs and the light eaters-and most
hog growers will agree that the breed.
