Other men located in the same community and living under the same condi tions, as far as we are able to see, say there is nothing in hogs for them. It is the man instead of the herd of hogs or the con dition of climate, soil, or markets that makes the difference be tween profit and loss in the hog business as well as in every other business. V T . ,ia isine men out oi ten win suc ceed in any line if their whole hearts are in the work, no mat' ter if they haven't the best prac tical knowledge of the business, while on the other hand about one in ten win succeed in any business if he is fairly driven in to that business because of the necessity of making a living from it. I sometimes think the best answer I could give to the hun dreds of young farmers who write to me concerning the live stock business would be to simply enclose as my reply a card on which is printed: "1. Learn to love your business "2, Let it be your ambition to be the best live stock farmer in the State. "3. Give the closest attention to the small uetails of your busi ness. "4. Remember that good breed good feed, and good feed are the main essentials, and that anyone of these is as important as any other.' - - : j A successful hog business can be built ud anywhere in the South if the above advice is fol lowed. The breeding of the foundation stock is necessary be cause men through many gener ations of work, built up the quality of these animals through good breed and good feed, and it is folly for any one man to throw away the work these builders have accomplished by neglecting to use the results of their labors. Then good breed and good feed are equally important to him be cause it is the law of nature that deterioration begins as soon as building stops. But in the selec tion of our breeding animals we should keep ever in mind that it is the utility hog we are after, not the fat freak of some im practical breeder who in his breeding operations has lost sight of the fact that economical pork production's is the whole end and aim of the hog. Breeders are human the same as other people. Some have suc ceeded in building up a greater usefulness the animal under their charge, others have bred their stock down hill. The profitable breeding sow will combine size, good back, broad hams, deep sides, with good disposition and great nurs ing qualities. This sort of a sow, to be given a chance to do good work, must be allowed to live twelve months of the year right down on mo ther earth. She must have plen ty of green food at all times of the year, urass, ciover, cow- peas, soja beans, which ever comes most handy, must . make her summer feed with some corn when she is nnrsing pigs. Dur ing the winter, grass., ensilage, crimson clover, oats, rye and the leaves of the pea vine or clo ver hay will keep her in good condition to bring good strong spring litters, and when the pigs come let her have in addition to the above feeds, a small slop of shipstuff or tankage along with a little corn. A good time for the pigs to ar rive is just time the grass is springing green, when the little fellows can romp and fight in the sunshine and dip their saucv noses down into the warm earth Never let a pig get stunted. They will pay 80 cencs to $1.00 per bushel for a light feed of soaked corn each day on grass until early peas and soft corn are ready for them. Spray the bunch about twice per month with the coal oil emul sion and see that their bedding is changed as often as it gets dirty or wet. Hogs handled after this fash ion we have found to pay us and they will pay vou. HUMAN BAIB TRADE. George T Angell. Rarely is full credit given to the living for their vircues. Men's names that are dear to our hearts testify to this. Washington had his enemies who would have dragged him to their own level could they have done so. Jeffer son was assailed bitterly, and Lin coln was a target for invective. All these are now honored names throughout the world even among the semi-civilized. Geo. T. An gell, living.has never been a tar get for cruel shafts, but he has never been accorded the honor that will be leaped upon his mem ory when his capacity for its en joyment shall have ceased. For nearly half a century Mr. Angell has given his entire en ergy and his fortune for the "pre vention of cruelty to animals." He is the father of the thousands of . humane- societies jthat, Jwiy e given a world-wide significance to the word "mercy." He has awakened in the conscience of humanity a sense of duty and of responsibility that has elevated mankind to a higher sphere than has before been attained by the race, and he has written in im perishable words 'kindness, jus tice and mercy to every living creature," on a million scrolls. The progress of civilzation has been marked by cruelty. Much of this may have been justified by necessity; but there is no jus tification for the common cruel ties inflicted upon dumb animals. To torture or maltreat the help less and defenseless is shameful and cowardlv, as well as cruel. There is no better index to noble ness of character than the mani festation of kindness toward the dumb animals that by every rule of fairness are entitled to our protection, and speed the day when cruelty shall be looked up on as so dishonorable that no one will care to wear its contumelious sign. Speed the day, too, when the humane society shall have a missionary, young or old, at every island fireside, and when "Bands of Mercv" shall enroll the boys and girls of the isles beautiful, that the work of George T: An gell may be borne to victorious conclusions, to make for the world of our bovs and girls, nobler men and women.

In 1907 all the hair was stored before shipment, but m. 1908 the demand was so much greater, and importers were so anxious to get the hair to ' the United States, that a heavy pro portion of the shipments were fumigated and disinfected in stead of being stored. it is also interesting to note in pass- II I can lend A strong hand to the fallen, or defend The right against asingle envious strain My life, though bare.

Monday water from the woods South of the farm was still running into the field, and the crops still covered. The corn will have to be olanted over. About a mile and a half of the Montgomery Lumber Co's rail road was washed up, causing sus pension of work in the lumber woods for several davs. Several of the County bridges were washed away, or upset so as to prevent travel for day or two.

Many True Greatness. (Christian Work and Evangelist.) Gentleness is not weakness. A mind that is addicted only to fawning and flattery will never honor truth and duty by an alle giance based on principle and adorned by true nobleness of spirit. Such an unsubstantial character can no more be made to assume the aspects of real po liteness than a sponge or a fun gus of any sort can be polished like a diamond or gold. Lead may be heavy enough for many useful purposes, but it is too un substantial and worthless to be coined into the currency of a na tion; and so of the public men it symbolizes they are too stupid to be trusted, and too uncouth to be admired. True greatness is always sympathetic and gener ous. Magoon. Could Xot lie Better. H No one has ever made a salve, oiut ment. lotion or balm to compare with Bucklen's Arnica Salve. Its the one perfect healer of Cut'. Corns, Burns, Bruises, SoJes, Scalds, Boils, Ulcers, be referred to the various church es for action. Every clergyman and all other Christians are or should be deeply concerned about church attendance. Church mem bers should be the first to set the example of going and every mem ber should be a home missionaiy to bring others to help fill the empty pews. All churches should welcome strangers, which is not always done. It is possible iy hearty, systematic cooperation between pastors and people to double the attendance at everv church within a few months. But merely opening the church doors at stated hours will not do it. If a church is made and kept at tracted and enough invitations are personally given every week there will be no falling off in the size of the congregations. The Gospel of Jesus Christ still has power to hold men if they can be induced to hear it. Every church should earnestly discuss this prob lemand then get to work! Eczema, Salt Rheum.

President Taft may not be an orator, but the speech he made at Charlotte pleased everybody except his particular friends, the "referees." The press not only praises it, but every one who heard it. It is strange but in reading it one gets it into his head that Mr. Taft is somewhat like Vance, and strange to say those who heard him said the same thing. He is open and frank like Vance; sees and ap preciates local conditions like Vance and still like him, wht he says is plain and hits the nail on the head. In appearance' he is not unlike the late senator and his nature appears to be like him. But aside from all this his Charlotte speech was a great one; so was the one delivered at Pe tersburg on Wednesday. He im presses one with the idea that he is not after applause, but seeks to do the right, regardless of what happens. He is a Republi can, but a man hrst; in other words, politics is not his God bv a long shot. Of course his ref erence to the appointment of Democrats to offjee was hailed with delight bv partizans of that creed, but with Mr. Taft his acts are only a means to an end. Back of it is the fact that he wants the best men to hold the offices and while he was a bit slow in moving he has been "goirgsome since he got off, "as the man said about the face horse.
