Lien Always Foe of Men. • The lion Is an implacable foe of men and has been as far back as his­ tory records. Born in captivity, never having known freedom, trained for years by one man and apparently either fearing or admiring his trainer, a Hon may turn on his trainer at any time and kill him as cruelly as he does in the Jungle.

Some day all states will require it by law as a few of them do now.—Na­ tional Stockman and Farmer, THE PEACH TREE BORER. On* of ths Most Destructive Enemies of tHe Orchard! Among tho numerous Insect pests' that attack fruit trees' the peach free borer is oue of tho most destructive At this time of the year this denizen of the orchnrd is in the lnrval stage and will he found at work under the bark at Or bjelow the surface of the gi'i.'iiml. Tho cggBare deposited by the adult In spring and early summer ou the trunk of the .trees. In time the eggs are hatched, and the larvae begin their work of destruction. None of the trees are immune from tho ravages of tlilsTnsect, because this pfest has been widely disseminated, there being no section entirely free from Its attack. The only effective remedy that is recommended is tp dig them out This work should be done in early winter or sOme time before growth liegiqs In spring. Secure competent labor, ex­ ercising cafe not to Injure the bark toy more than necessary. Itemovo tin soil from around the trunk and with a sharp knife" or rasp scrape off the gummy exudation and cut out all in­ jured tissue, destroying tho larvae as, they are found. Trees that are badly infected should be gone over several times, •once In torly winter and again In spring. Aft­ er the spring “worming" mound the earth about the trunks. This Jg much cheaper and is to be recommended in preference to the wrapping of the trees with paper or painting with some coal tar preparation,—C. J. Hayden, Missis. 3ippi Station. _______ Convenient Chicken Trap. . A simple device to aid in catching chickens that get-out of the-yard, says a contributor to the Farm Progress, is rigged'as follows; Attach a strip of chicken, netting five feet Jong and two feet wide to the outer, side of tho fence by tying at intervalsof fourInch­ es through tho vertical center, Secure tho ends to stakes driven out about five inches from the fence. 'When n chicken escapes it naturally ruus he side the wire, trying to get In with its mutes. It then enters one of the angles in the device, when It may be readily caught. I breed one of the tninll and spry varieties, and have been put to much trouble by “bronchy” chicks until after arranging this de­ vice. Now I actually enjoy having them “break Jail,” it is so' easy to, catpb them. _____ __ LIVE STOCK AND DAIRY. Oat straw makes a good roughage for idle horses when it is well saved, but feed a little liay along with it. To groom the horse well after hard work does not only clean the skin, but prevents varioas parasitic diseases of the skin. A horse that is MtlcUound will be benefited If given a little oilmcal (tin seed meal). This must be begun In doses of not more Until u tnbtespoonful at a feed and gradually increased to nearly a pint with the other food three times per day* In feeding aged steers quality and type are not so essential as in feeding calves provided-the purchase price Is proportionate. The busy bacteria gets busy in the milk almost at the moment It is drawn from the cow. . As a rule, a largo flow of trillk is as* soclated with a low per cent Of fat, while q, small flow shows a higher test. No man is in a better position to build Up his soil than a dairyman If he nses wisely the forces at his command. The,calf that is expected to develop into a strong nnd profitable cow should lie given nil tho chance possible during Its early period of growth. It is a source of satisfaction to the progressive dairyman to tie 'able to sum up at the end of the year just ex­ actly what every cow has done.

Why should women vote? That is tho question that Is ringing from ocean to oceanand reverberating from the Canadian boundary to the Mexi­ can border. It is the mission of a newpaper to give the news^and the action of the Texas Farmers' Union in opposing woman'* suffrage when that question waa recently before the Texas legislature is significant bb representing the 'attitude of the or­ ganized plowmen* We reproduce in part the argument presented by Hon. W, D. Lewis, president of tho Texas Farmers’ Union, In opposing the bill: .“It is gratifying to note that it Is not the farmer’s wife who Is clamoring for the ballot. She is too busy trying to make happier homes, mold­ ing the minds of future citizens and Sharing with her husband the cares of life to indulge In political gossip. The ballot will give her no relief from drudgery, give no assistance in cloth­ ing the children or bring to the homo additional .comforts, conveniences or opportunities in life. It 1 b , as a rule, the city woman promoted to.Jdleness by prosperity, who Is leading the suf­ fragette movembht, “From many standpoints, perhaps a woman has as much right to vote as sL man. So has she as much Tight to plow as a man;.she has as much right to work in a factory as a man; she has as muepi right to shoulder'a musket as a man, hut we would rather she would not do .so from choice and we regret- thaj^ecessity ofttimea compels her to earn a living1by en­ gaging in gainful; occupations. We do not consider misfortune .a qualifica­ tion for suffrage or a -business acci­ dent a reason for granting franchise. We are opposed to, woman at the ballot box the ianje as we are op­ posed to woman in the field, in the factory or in tho army and for the self-same reasons. We had rather Seeher plant flowers than, sow wheat; gather bouquets tiiah pick cotton and rear children, thaii raise political .Is­ sues, although aha"may have as much right to do oue as the cither. Opposed to Uhsexinfl Humanity. “Sex qualification for 'suffrage may have Its apparent inconsistencies. Np general rule adJSata Itself perfectly to all conditions,' It is a favoritear gurnent advanced by tho proponents o; woman's suffrage thatmany cultivated and, noble women are far more capa­ ble of intelligently exercising -sov­ ereignty than a worthless negro, but the^South never was anftous for negro suffrage, and while culture and refinement, and oven morality, are' desirable virtues, they are not the only qualification# for franchise. ''The primary-tnhgrent and insep­ arable fitness,fo# suffrage is support­ ing a family, The plow handle, the forge and the struggle for bread" af­ ford experience necessary to property mark the-ballot.- Government is a great big business and civilization from the very beginning, assigned woman tho home and man the busi­ ness affairs of life. , “There has beep much freakish leg­ islation enacted during the past de­ cade that no doubt appeals towoman's love for the ridiculous, but to under­ take to unsex the human race by law; is^the height of legislative folly and a tragedy to mankind. "We are opposed to the equal rights of woman—we want'her to ever re­ main our superior. We considor woman’s desire to seek man’B level the yellow peril of Twentieth Century civilization. ’Woman is the medium through which angels Whisper their messages to mankind; it Is her hand that plants thoughts in the intellectual vineyard; it is through her heart that hope, love and sympathy Overflow and bless man­ kind. Christ—the liberator of woman­ kind—was satisfied to teachthe lessons of life and He was a man. He chose to rule over human hearts and re­ fused worldly powerandmen followed after Him, women washed His feet, little children climbed upon His knees and the Ruler of the universe said that in Him He was well pleased. Can woman And a higher calling?” TH&M ISTOCL&S When T*hetplstocles was .asked by hla host at a dinner party to enter­ tain the guests by playing the lute, he replied that he could not play the fiddle, but that he could make a small town a great" city. We have In this nation many politicians who are good ’’fiddlers/’ but they Cannot make a small town a great city, We are over­ run with orators who can play" upon, the passl&nS of the people, but they Can’t put brick and mortar together. We, need builders," Let those Who hunger and thirst for power- understand that the highest glory of a statesman is to construct, and that it Is better for a man that lie should build a public highway than that he should become Governor of a state, and that he start a plow than that he become the author of a law. The true test of statesmanship is the plow and the hammer, so let those Who would' govern, first build'. s a s a i is s m o .K lM CS OurAnnual JulySale STARTS .
