T. d. Coburn, ex-seeretary of Az
riculture in Kansas. recently deliv-
cred the following paean to the hog
before the Ohio Board Of Agriculture:
Hogs pay the taxes, clothe the fam
lily, send the children TO school and
make possible the development of new
homes. They have provided food for
the Anglo-Saxon race. Without them
Chicago would be a prairie village,
Kansas City barren Hill and Omaha
ferry crossing. Take away the SOW
and our banks would close and the
wheels Of commerce cease to turn.
The pig is a quiet. inoffensive,
Christian sort of animal. symbolic to
2 greater extent Of the peaceful vir-
tues for which our nation is so con-
spieu0us than is the rowing, piratical
eagle. The snout invertino the soil
is a symbol of peace and industry.
The pig is thrifty animal. turning
to good account everything which
comes his way, and far better repre-
sentative of the American character
than the rowing, rohbing eagle.
The hog is a condenser: he is a
manufacturer of hams, hash and head
cheese, lard, Illuminating oils, hair
brushes, liver pudding, tooth brushes,
glue, buttons, bacon. bristles, fertiI-
izers and fats, knife handles, whistles,
soaps, souse, side meat, saddle COW
ers and sausage. He is a mint and
the yellow corn of our country is the
bullion he transmits into golden coin
In the American hog we have an
automatic combined machine for re-
ducing the bulk in corn and enhancing
It's value. 1t puts 10 bushels of corn
In a space of less than a bushel meas
ure and in so doing quadruples the
value of the grain.

This is what old timers call freak
ish winter weather. But the fact is
most years are freakish The weather
might be expected to run along in an
average sort Of way with seasonable
months. But it doesn't, about this
time" the old almanaes used to say,
"look out for moderate rains" But
the chances are that there is food
or drought. Last year the rainfall
was way below normal This year it
acts as if it would break the record
That is what makes life interesting
There are parts Of the world where
the thermometer doesn't vary five
degrees from January to July, and
where you can always depend on
light, short shower at certain hour
in the afternoon But who wants to
live in such humdrum world? The
weather of this part Of Idaho. as
variable and tickle in its moods as a
sehoolgirl, is constant allurcment
and challenge.

Time was when to speak Of children
as kids" was offensive to parents
Perhaps even today, when the word
has an established place in the
American vernacular, "kids" as used
in abiding to somebody's else's chill
dren is far from an endearment. But
just the same "the kid as referred to
by father, in respect to some par
ticular one of his offspring, has come
now to voice a profound and touching
sympathy, deep feeling and love
which will brook no Interference and
tolerate no ridicule. When you hear
man protest that it all depends up
on "the kid as to whether he will do
given thing or not, or go to GER
tain place. it is reasonably safe
wager that he is bound by strings of
gold leading straight from a beloved
child's heart. 1t is that sort of at
tachment which makes men better
and women nobler.

WHY ". Y. KNOTT IS
HIS CANDIDATE.
Hon. Albert Williamson,
Brilliant Editor of Flo
ridian, Gives Reasons.

We are now fully convinced that
William V. Knott has been fairly NOM
mated by the Democratic voters for
Governor of Florida.
We have hesitated or temporized
only on account of the so-caled GER
tifcate GU signed by the Honorable
H. Clay Crawford, secretary of State.
But as a plain matter of fact, the only
instrument of writing that can proper
ly be termed a certificate is the one
mailed to each Board of County Com
missioners in Florida certifying to the
names of the various candidates enti-
tied under the law to be printed on the
official bollots to be voted at the gen.
eral election in November.
When the vote was canvassed by
the State canvassing board last June
Sidney ]. Cats unquestionably had a
plurality Of the first choice votes over
w. V. Knott. But this SECOND
CHOICE vote has made the difference
in the final count, and Mr.. Knott is
clearly proven to be nominee of the
Democratic party.
Had there been no second choice
votes, Mr.. Cats would have been the
nominee but thereby hangs a tale.
That second choice now takes the
place of the second primary. There
is a vast difference between a plural
ity and majority.
The late Governor Broward when
he first ran for the Senate, had in
the first primary a large plurality
over Senator Fletcher, but Senator
Fletcher won out in the second, by a

SWEATING FRUIT
T MAY Violate LAW.
Food and Drugs Act Pre-
Il vents Interstate Ship
ment of SWeated I'M
TX mature Oranges and
Grapefruit.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 25.-Grow
ers and shippers of oranges and
grapefruit are making many inqui-
ries of tie United States Department
of Agriculture in reference to what
action will be taken by the Depart
ment during the coming season to-
ward preventing the shipment into in
ter state commerce of immature CT
trus fruits which have been artificial
ly colored by sweating. The Off
Gals in charge of the enforcement OF
the Food and Drugs Act state they
will be guided in their action by the
position of the Department previous
ly announced, to the effect that the
shipment in interstate commerce OF
immature oranges and grapefruit,
which are sweated either before ship
ment or en- route, is a violation Of the
Food and Drugs Act when the sweat
ing conceals inferiority by making I'M
ripe fruit appear to be ripe. The
sweating process turns the green color
of the unripe fruit to yellow, and
fruit so treated has the appearance Of
being ripe. However, extensive in
vestigations by the Department have
shown that the sweating process does
not ripen the immature fruit.
One of the tests to determine
whether or not an orange is mature
is the so-called "eight-to-one test"
This test is based on the ratio OF the
soluble solids to the acid contained in
the Juice of the orange. The soluble
solids increase as the oranges rlpen,
while the acid decreases. The or
anges are considered immature until
the Juice contains soluble solids equal
to. or in excess of, parts to each part
of acid contained in the juice. Inc
amount of soluble solids in orange
Juice is about equivalent to the
amount of sugar it contains; Inc
ratio of the sugar to the acid IN the
Juice determines the sweetness OF the
orange. In the case of grapefruit,
maturity is indicated by a ratio Of sew
on parts of soluble solids in the juice
to one part of acid. The United
States Department of Agriculture will
send to any grower or shipper, upon
request. specific directions for making
the eight-tO-one test.
If oranges do not meet this teSt
thew are considered immature, and Il
coIored by sweating then it is consld
cred that inferiority is concealed.
The position of the United State
, Department of Agriculture in refer
; ence to the sweating of immature CT
? trus fruit is stated in Food lnspec
ton Decision 1873, and in Service anc
Regulatory Announcements Of the Blu
, reau of Chemistry numbered II ant

nlication to the Department.
