IDLE FARM ACRES
ARE IMPROBABLE.
Man Must Have Clean Sweep
Across Fields If He Is After
the Greatest Profit.
(By r. B. RUSHING)

In travelling over the country l see
fields that are claimed to be worth
from 500 o 500 per acre, with a pile
of stones lying here and there and sew
eral scrawny, half-dead trees standing
about over this land and perhaps with
a swale running across.
Have you any such on your farm
that are not yielding profit, perhaps
scarcely paying taxes?
These acres are loafing, and what is
worse, not only loating but costing
the farmer hard earned money every
time he sends man into the fields to
work. Time wasted in turning around
distractions is very great and time is
money these days.
With the modern machinery that
we want to use and to cultivate and
harvest our produce, a man must have
a clean sweep across the land if he
is after the greatest profit.
Often a few dollars would remove
these worthless piles of stones, and
those old, half-dead trees which are
juNt in the way. Then the land would
be available for use.
By putting In an underdrain q
worthless swale may be transformed
into fertile field. Stones and trees
are all right in their places, but the
best place for the stones is in max
ing dam at the lower end of some
low place to help catch the wash, and
the best place for the trees is in a
clump by themselves or very near the
fence and not scattered all over an
otherwise profitable field.
1t is very common thing to see
large strips of land that are not In
shape to be cultivated; loafing in
weeds and brush between fields, sim
ply because the farmer has not the
ambition to fence them in
If you have such land that cannot
be put under cultivation with profit it
should be fenced and turned into
pasture, or If you desire to grow
trees, and OF course you should grow
some, set out useful variety, but be
sure and not allow the land to loaf
away your profit by growing absolute

MAKE FALL PIGS PROFITABLE
lIt VIII Be Found That Even Under
Favorable Conditions Much Feed
VIII Be Required.

II the farmer has plenty of cheap
feed, such as milk, for which there
Is little use. he may be justified
In keeping and grodwing fall pigs.
Cheap feed OF some sort he must
have. as 1t will be found that
even under favorable conditions
It Will require quite an amount to pro-
duce a pound of gain. When one has
the feed, he can perhaps arrange for
some warm place in which to house
the pigs.
In 9. Barn behind steers is good
place for them, but the percentage of
farmers feeding steers is small SO this
would scarcely answer the purpose for
the majority. Some, Of course, have
warm pig barns. Those who intend to
grow fall pigs for some years might
invest in some little low cots for them.
These should be not more than three
feet high on one side and two feet on
the other.
The slope roof which covers them
should be on hinges. SO that 1t may be
lifted up and bedding put in. A gunny
sack will constitute the door. In one
of these low houses, with plenty OF
clean straw for bedding, the pigs will
huddle together and keep nice and
warm. Such houses may be con.
structed at slight cost; yet the man
who intends to grow pigs for only a
year or 80 would scarcely be war
ranted in putting money into them
Those who have fall pigs, especially
small sized ones, ought to study the
situation we'll before taking a step
one way or the other. There are as
many different circumstances as there
are individuals, and what is wisdom
for one would be folly for another.
Any farmer who is willing to give
intelligent and thoughtful considera-
ton to the matter, and who will con-
suit with others who have had expert
ence In winter feeding can settle the
problem for himself better than any
outsider can possibly do; but, as
matter of fact. many who are selling
are doing 80 simply because they hap
pen to be, and those who are retain
ing pigs are retaining them for no
more substantial reason. This is all
wrong.

rev years ago IN this section you
might drive miles and not see flock
OF sheep. Today they are appearing
in numbers upon the farms-even up
on 40 and 60-acre farms.
The reason Is that many farmers are
beginning to realize the need of sheep
upon the farm. Mutton is becoming
q popular meat. There is demand
for good lambs. Sheep grow into
money faster than most other animals
They are cleansers of the farm when

Good Bedding for Horses.

A good way to keep a horse clean
in the stable is to clean out all dirt,
etc, and then cover the floor about
three or four inches thick with dry
sawdust, as far back In the stall as
the horse usually stands, then cover
that you may use. The sawdust will
absorb the moisture, and therefore
make the other bedding last longer

good place to mix the grain intended
for the cows. emptying first the light,

these out nve or six inches thick,
Then begin at one edge. shovel the

FUNSTON CONFIRMS STORY
OF ARREST OF URRuTiA

Washington. May 19.-Briga der
General Funston, in a report to the
war department today confirmed the
stories of the arrest of DR.. Aureliano
Urrutia upon his arrival at Vera. Cruz
from Mexico City and added that he
would be kept under guard until he
goes aboard his ship. General Funs-
ton did not say when DR.. CTrutia in
tends to embark or whittier he is
bound. He added that Antonio de la
Tore editor of FL DiCtamen and lead
er of the demonstration against DR..
Urrutia would be released from Gus
tody.
Vera Cruz May 1S-Dr. AureIiauo
Urrutia- ex minister of the interior,
declared that he left the capital be-
the belief that q revolt would shortly
occur in the city OF Mexico.
Il left the capital he said, for two
reasons. The first was a knowledge
OF a plot among General Huerta's
close political supporters to assass
nate me, they saying I knew too much.
Second there has been planned a gen
eral revolt of the people and the army.
II would not be surprised to re-
celVe ow at any minute news or an
uprising against Huerta, of whom the
people and the army are tired and of
termined to rid themselves. I did not
want to be in Mexico City when this
occurred"
Twice arrested and hustled through
the streets by American soldiers and
Kissed and threatened by his country
men, DR.. Urrutia was forced to face
yesterday some of the indignities to
which he subjected others while he
was high IN power at the capital. He
expects to sail for Europe at the first
opportunity.
In spite Of the sentiments OF the
crowd which stood before his hotel
and shouted let us witness that Am
erican justice be done" General Funs-
ton has been asked to order Or. Jr-
rutias detention until such time as
they have at Mexico City a new gov
eminent and new judiciary before
whom charges against the ex-minister
can De filed for alleged crimes per-

while he was minister OF the inter
ior.
There appears little likelihood that
DR.. Urrutia Will be held. At one time
General Funston did tell him 10 leave
as soon as possible, but relenting, he
sent word to him he might remain
in Vera Cruz temporarily.
DR.. Urrutia professed that his only
desire was TO remain here under pro-
lection Of the Americans, that he had
no object in going to Europe and that

however, he had decided that he would
not stay.
This decision was due to the attitude
Of his own people rather than to lack
OF hospitality on the part OF the Am
orleans. After he had been taken to
a hotel from the police station where
he was detained after his arrival. he
crossed the street with his family
consisting of his wife and eight chill
dren to lunch at cafe. American
soldiers accompanied him. They stood
In the dining room near his table and
outside other soldiers were busy pre-
venting the intrusion of angry natives
who muttered their threats and OPEN

of FL D1ctamen. who was the leader of
demonstration against DR.. Urru-
tia, still is held at police headquar-
ters charged with disturbing the
peace. He has become a popular
hero.
The Urrutta incidents have served
TO demonstrate in a striking manner
the widespread anti Huerta sentiment
in Vera Cruz, Most fugttfves from
the capital ara welcomed by the resi-
dents Of Vera Cruz but they found it
difficult to separate Urrutta from the

DR.. Urrut5a referred to an incident
at a dinner at Chapultepsc last fall
when Querido Moheno and jose Maria

drank the health of Huerta, styling
ing him as being even greater than

At that time, Dir. Urrutia said he

A noteworthy feature of the meeting
was the report Of q special committee
I consisting of DR.. c. E. Hutchinson,
Mr. NJ J. Elkan and Building Inspector
e. Z. Shacxleford, who had just made
an extensive investigation of the
physical condition of grammar school
The committee were unanimous that
the building should be torn down and
replaced with q modern structure. Mr..
ShackIeford stated that he would re-
guire. extensive repairs that the build
sing conform to the building laws.
In order to procure funds for the
re- building Of No l. Mr. Elkan sug-
gested that the legislature be petit
toned to appropriate S10,0OO,000 for
the development of the schools of the
state and that the various bodies OF
Home and School Leagues, Boards of
Public Instruction, etc, cooperate TO
secure the needed legislation.
Rev. J. II. Brown called the atten-
tion of the council that the matter
of rebuilding Scnool No. /, brought up
. y
ard suggested that before building,
thlt the plan Of the public school com
mission be looked into. The council
then voted to call upon the public
school commission to summarize its
findings ana publish them in the local
papers.
Information was had that the board
of public instruction was intending to
repair and paint school No. l, and the
council was Of the opinion thar not
more should he done to No. I. than alb
soEteGy necessary, but that the Coun-
oil would co operate in every way pos
sihle to secure for Pensacola a special

law would permit the city to raise an
additional amount of money for better
