7 Asst week various aspects of
- plagiarism were under discus
sion in this department. There was
one phase of the matter of which
nothing was said. Sometimes two
writers handle the same idea
against the background of different
nationalities and in different Ian
guages. To illustrate: In Ger
mimic Lacerteux" Jules and Ed
mond de Goncourt took the life of
a woman servant; her passions,
temptations and struggles against
fate. Later, in Esther Waters"
George Moore did what was prac-
tically the same thing, but in an
English environment and with
English characters. 1t is told some-
where probably in the Journal" O;
the De Goncourts, that the idea of
the first named novel came to the
brothers when they made the
chance discovery that the life of an
old family servant had not been so
entirely colorless as her drab per-
sonality suggested, but had been
colored by a wild and unhappy
romance. "a Portrait of George
Moore in a Study of His Work"
written by John Freeman and Just
issued by the Appletons, recalls
that the immediate suggestion of
Esther Waters" was the following
sentence which the author found in
a newspaper: Were always COM
planning of the annoyance that SER
wants occasion US, but we do not
think of the annoyance we occasion
servants"
u ONDERING upon that George
\ Moore first rejected the notion
of a young lady in love with her
footman, the idea with which Field
ing began Joseph Andrews" in a
spirit of burlesque, and imagined a
girl, a kitchen maid, anxious to get
a living. He thought that on four
teen pounds a year she could not
rear her illegitimate child, but
needed sixteen pounds. The life of
human being valued at two
pounds year was the subject. The
story was begun when Moore was
living in the Temple, and continued
when he went to the law courts. In
after life he thought it would have
been better book if he had written
it all in the Temple; for it was
there that his laundress used to tell
him every day of her troubles. and
through her he grew to understand
the lives of poor people. She gave
HIM the atmosphere required for
the book, talk with her while he
was taking his breakfast being an
excellent preparation for the days
writing.

To quote Mr.. Freeman. Esther
Waters has beginning and an
end, and because between all is an
easy, harmonious development,
flowing like water to a stream or
like branches to autumn and win
ter, the quiet end has the beauty
of music and clouds. The story
sinks in the west, clouds are lit

blackbird still sings, Esther Waters,
her son and her mistress stand clear

shadows of departed characters,
William and Randall and Kelley

Making Good Durocs.

At a sale Of Duroc Jerseys held in
Tulsa in November, 1920, j. w. Duke.
who lives one mile south of Skiatook,
purchased three of the highest
priced animals offered. Duke has
made a close study OF the hog bust
ness and is a good feeder, From the
original start made two years ago he
has produced and sold as breeders
a large number OF hogs. He now
has about forty head Of spring pigs
every one Of which looks like a prize
winner. lie has built lots and sheds
so as to make the work of caring for
them as easy as possible and so as
to provide every comfort for his
hogs. Just recently he returned
from a trip 20 Nebraska -ac.a he
purchased az the sale OF Ed Kern
of stanton, Neb.. three extra fine
sows bred TO the world famous boar
Great Orien Sensation. and he also
brought home with him fine young
spring boar sired by Great Orien
Sensation.
Duke Is milking a small herd Of
Holstein COWS and separates the
milk, feeding the skinned milk 10
the pigs and this no doubt has some
thing to do with the extra fine quail
ity Of the hogs he Ia raising. His
fine farm home Is equipped with run

Profit From Black-Eyed Peas.

has 1920 hills Of tomatoes. As soon
as the tomatoes were set out he
planted n row og black-eyed peas be-
tween each row Of tomatoes The
peas were in the green pod stage by
July 10, when he began selling them
Tor snap beans and has averaged
selling from 20 rs bushels per day
ever since. a bushel OF snap beans
weighs from 2j TO 80 pounds and
the price is TO cents per pound as
his daily sales run from $3.50 10 $12
