A Living From An Acre.

The South Carolina Agricultur-
al College tells of a man who
makes living from one acre of
land. He is a former mill hand
who was forced to give up that
work because of i'll health.
College demonstration work got
him interested in farming, and
now for nine years the little acre
tract about his home has been
made to yield a living for him
self and family.
He has a cow for which he
raises all the rough feed, seven
peach trees, five grape vines,
three Himilaya berries, five fig
bushes, and a few raspberry
bushes and strawberry plants.
One of the remarkable things
about this little farm" is the in
come from butter beans. They
are planted only around the fence
and for shade on trellises at the
doors and windows. Yet from
this limited area, last season $15
worth of fresh butter beans and
S33. 60 worth of dry beans were
sold.
Some of us might copy this
profitable little economy along
our own garden fences, and the
success of this man should be an
inspiration to everyone. journal

Five Cents a Minute.

A Minnesota man has figured
out that he was paid 5 cents a
minute for the time he spent last
year on 100 pigs, amounting in
all to 365 hours. We haven'tgot
this mans figures, but we have
an outline of his system, the
main point of which is that the
hogs harvest their own feed.
Rape and alfalfa pasture are
provided for spring and summer.
About eight acres are required
for the 100 pigs that are raised
each year. In the fall the pigs
are turned into a l5.acre field of
corn, beside which is a four-acre
field of rape. When this is har-
vested the hogs are marketed.
Sows that are kept over winter
to provide next seasons pigs are
allowed to clean up the waste.
A mans time is worth vastly
more than a hogs so why har-
vest corn and feed it out to The
hogs when the hogs can do this
work themselves, and make just
as good or better gains? That
they do has been shown by
numerous experiments, and by
the successful experience of many
farmers who have tried this
method.
"Hogging down corn may look
shiftless," one of our friends
writes, but one year witt
another, it gives me a dollar 1
bushel for my crop. lcan'taver
age that much by husking it out
so why shouldn't / hog it DOWN.
There doesn't seem to be any
good reason why not-nor any
reason why more of us SHOULD
not profit by the same system. 30

Profits May Drop After War but

The new era following the lay.

have to rest content with profits
way below those on "war

get will not be soaked in human

WILL CALL EXTRA SESSION.

From Frankfort it is given out authortativey that
Governor Stanley will call special session of the General
Assembly to convene within the next fortnight. When
this article goes to press the CALL if the report is true will
have been made and will be surprise to those who
have kept in touch with the trend of affairs at Frankfort
Governor Stanley intended all the time to call special
session to pass the called tax law framed by commission
ersof his selection, and which, as understand,
meets with his unqualified approval.
Of course the members of the General Assembly all
favor special session, that's natural. That working
majority of them ready to do the bidding of their chief
there is but little doubt They will meet. They will
main in session long public sentiment will permit
They will pass the substantially as framed by the
commissioners If it is amended at all it will be amended
to the liking of the corporations and moned interests
and to the detrmen of the individual and the land
owner.
1t will be sad day for the farmers of Kentucky when
this measure becomes law if it ever does There is not
single provision in the bill that gives the agricultural
class one ray Of hope of relief Among other things it
provides that all appeals from the action of the County
Board of Supervisors shall be made direct to the Central
Tax Commission at Frankfort Under the present law if
taxpayer feels that he has not gotten justice at the hands
of the Board of Supervisors he can appeal to the County
Court of his county Under the proposed law if appeal
is taken the appellant will be compelled to 90 to Frankfort
and prosecute his appeal before the Central Tax Commits
son This provision alone ought to cause every farmer in
the State to vote against the adoption of the new law after
passed by the Legislature and referred to the people,
The expense of prosecuting appeal would be far greater
than the amount involved thus leaving the people pract
cally without redress.
AS we said before the Legislature will meet in special
session. 1t will remain in session long as possible 1t
will add another small item of $780, 900 or 900 to Ken
tuckys indebtedness, which is now in excess of $3OOO
O00 for the expense of the extra session. 1t will pass the
proposed tax law which provides for the appointment of
three Commissions at salary of $4,000 year each and
some $4,000 or $4,000 a year for expenses. And
Governor Stanley will be very discriminating in the select
ion of the members of the Central Tax Commission The
members of the special Commission which framed the
law will probably have first CALL but it safe bet that
the whiskey interests will be well represented

years in India, says he would
sooner risk a railway accident
than meet an elephant with a
toothache.
1t appears that a toothache
effects an elephant in a more
severe manner than it does any
other animal. Elephants have
very sensitive nerves, and a touch
of toothache often brings on mad
ness.
Providing you are able to chain
down an elephant and draw out
the offending tooth the brute is
certain to be affectionate to you
afterward. Here is an instance:
An elephant in Bengal, India,
became affected with toothache,
but the keepers managed to Sc
cure it while a dentist drew a de-
cayed tooth-the cause of the
trouble. After a time the ele-
plant seemed to understand that
the dentist was trying to do some
thing for his pain, and he gave
every evidence of approaching
the attention. When the oper.
alton was over he frisked around
the dentist like young lamb. =

Most Accurate Timepiece.

The most accurate timekeeper
in the world is said to be the
electric clock in the basement of
the Berlin observatory. 1t is in

of two or three months with an
average daily deviation of only
fifteen one thousandths of a Sec

satisfied even with this, and
efforts are continually being made
to secure ideal conditions for a
clock by keeping it not only in an
air tight case, but in an under
ground vault where changes
neither of temperature nor of
barometric pressure shall ever
effect it. Exchange.
