FREMATUR.E OBSEQUIES.
About 300 years ago lived and reign
ed Charles V.. the greatest monarch
of his time. He was emperor of Ger
many, king of Spain aud of the
Netherlands. He ruled a vaster em
pire than any other man bad bad since
the days of Charlemagne. Ue was an
able statesman and a great general,
but not a good man. for be iersecut
ed without mercy those of bis sub
jects who were not of hue own re- j
Ugloa
After reigning many years Charles
abdicated bis powers Into tbe hands
of his brothers and retired to a re
ligious retreat
There, shortly before his death, be
felt that the curtain was closing ou a
career that had held much of glory
and much cl sorrow, and he conceived
the grotesqie idea of witnessing bis
own funeral Accordingly be bad all
the preparations mude for the event
as though be had really passed away;
bad the ceremonies rehearsed and even
went to the length of having himself
adjusted In his coffin.
It is believed that be wanted to im
press tbe spectators with a sense of
tbe transiency of human grandeur.
He. tbe great enieror, ruler of half
of Europe, was become but a corpse
at last!
Others besides Charles V. attend
their own funerals while still living.
They do not. It Is true, pretend that
the obsequies are those of their earth
ly bodies, but they place lu the coffin
and actually bury what is best In
their lives-their hopes, their dreams,
then" visions of the future. They
write "finis" to their lives before the
final chapters are composed.
Let others bury you. Don't inter
yourself!
Tbe body may be wasted by dU-
ease; the spirit lives unimpaired.
Fortune may have departed forever.
There Is still work to be done. "Old
age hath Its opportunities no less than
youth Itself."
The soul may die long before the
body is ready to depart Keep It
alive at whatever cost Don't give
up the ship. Don't yield to tbe despair
which says there Is nothing left that
Is worth while. If there Is nothing In
Immediate sight get out ana stir some
thing up.
Charles V. accomplished a great deal
in statesmanship in his lifetime, but
to the student of history he Is known
chiefly as the man who, at the height
of his grandeur, gave jp his thrones
tod retired. He quit t i fight, and so
Ut was a failure.

aim should he to Increase ecu pro
duction ami the sale of broilers or
other kinds of fancy poultry so that
there will be a profit of F- for each
hen kept This Is to be accomplished
by selecting pullets from the best lay
ing mothers and by breeding up with
full blooded males.
If the cows lu a dairy herd are pay
ing an average of $100 a year, make
an effort to raise It to r.W. Perhaps
the quickest way to gain this end Is
by discarding all animals that fall to
give Ave gallons of milk per day for
the greater part of the year. The stock
may he gradually Improved by selec
tion and breeding. It may be possible
also to sell a part of the milk or cream
to private customers who will pay ,
double tbe wholesale rate.
it Is not necessary that the farmer
should replace all of his grade cows
with high priced, pure bred Holstelns,
Jerseys, Guernseys or Ayrshire.
However, for successful and profitable
dairying It Is absolutely necessary that
be realize the remarkable difference In
productive capacity of tbe Individual
cow In the same herd, though these
cows are cared for by the same man
and are consuming practically the
same amount of feed.
Recently a herd of hogs from the
northwest was sold In one of the cen
tral markets for fSM per 10O pounds.
A herd of similar size from a so called
corn belt state sold In the same mar-1
ket on the same day for ST.Ki. Tbe
northwestern hogs were fed a variety, ;
Including barley, a liberal amount of
alfalfa, a little ground wheat some
corn and some sugar beet sirup. The I
other herd of hogs was fattened al- j
most exclusively on coru. j
Xot only did the northwestern hogs
bring a higher price per 100 pounds,
but they put on flesh more rapidly and
economically than the others and were
In every way more satisfactory. With
the present knowledge of alfalfa grow
ing no farmer, even In the strictly
corn states, cau find a reasonable ex
cuse for not having some of this to
feed his bogs.
Hogs need to run at large in a field
where then is forage. This may be
clover, alfalfa, rape or artichokes. In
this wu." they attain growth und put
on flesh better than they will If pen
ned up. If they can have whey or
skimmed milk once a day this will as
sist the economical production of meat
Tbe aim must be to bring tbe bog op
to 200 or 300 pounds at such a mod
erate cost that there will be a liberal
profit wbeu It Is marketed.
With an abundance of bay and corn
there ought to be a good profit In fat
tening beef animals, few or many, ac
cording to the size of the farm. It
would appear that w ith the Judicious j
selection of feeders, with the careful
handling of the animals while In tbe I
feed lot and with an even break on I
other conditions, cattle feeding ought
to be fairly profitable.
Farmers have come to realize the
value of maintaining soli fertility and
are using manure as liberally as pos
sible. Land, to be made a source of
continuous profit, must be kept fertile.
The proper rotation of crops combined
with the raising of live stock, will con
tribute largely in the maintenance of
soil fertility.

la the need of the
times, with smaller farms and better
cultivation. There should bo the great
est possible ranee of production when
markets are easily reached. Farmers
and their sons and daughters should
aim to produce novelties, or at least
articles w hich are not commonly un
derstood by landou-nera aud for which
good prices are paid.
A few gardeners make a large profit
from salsify, sometimes called vegeta
ble oyster. This Is one of the neglect
ed products for which there Is a quick
salts Many prefer It to the oyster,
whose flavor It has a hint of. with all
the disagreeable features of the bi
valve flavor left out of It.
It can be cooked In many ways. As
a soup, served with bread or crack
ers. It Is delicious. Fried, either by
Itself or In a batter. It is quite as ap
pelating as the real oyster when cook
ed lu that w-ay.
Boiled, sliced lengthwise, when ten
der aud fried In butter, like the par-
np lHH), a favorite.
Especially Is salsify a valuable addi
tion to our somewhat limited list of
winter vegetables, because It can be
dug In the fall and stored In the cellar,
or It can be left lu the ground over
winter and dug In the spring, when It
will be found dellclously fresh aud of
tine flavor.
The culture of this plant Is of the
simplest It lik.-s a rich garden loam
made mellow to the depth of a foot
and a half. Sow It In rows for con
venience In cultivating and keep down
the weeds, if the seed 1 1 tics stand too
thick In the rows thin them out so
that the plants will be at least two
Inches apart. Sow quite early In the
season.
Watch the catalogues of reliable seed
bouses for novelties. The Trophy
marked a new era In tomatoes and
was really the tirst with smooth ei
I terlor and solid Inside. We had had
j smooth tomatoes before, but they had
big seed hollows Inside, and nil that
we had with solid meat were exceed
j Ingly rough, like the mammoth I'blhua
I hua.
Itut the production of the Trophy
wos a success because it put this solid
tomato Inside a smooth sUln. and ever
since It has been the effort of breed
ers to keep It there. The host efforts
of the breeders should now be devoted
to the maintenance of the earllness of
the extra early sorts, with Increased
smoothness. This has been attained
In the Karllaua. Globe, Success und
others.
Then there are the cucumbers of
which every seedsman has his special
strain. Of these I bave found that
there Is uothliiL better than the com
bination of tin- White Spine ami Long

It is lunger und slimmer than the
White Spine and earlier than the Long

Never follow the fall crop of lettuce
with lettuce, for It Is sure to be at
tucked by the w ilt. This crop needs a
change of soil us often ns xisslhle. It
Is ei -y to raise lettuce In tbe winter In
a room that has an even and moderate
temperature. This is better than mid
summer lettuce and sells nt fancy fig
ures. Lettuce Is raised with least trou
ble In spring n.-id full.
When soil can be worked In tbe
spring lettuce, radishes, onions aud
peas should lie planted In the open
garden. All of these can stand con

some early potatoes. Tbe early vege
tables bring big profits.

OPINION OF MANY
That the winter of 1913 II has been
nlie of tbe mildest for the last III
years Is the opinion of a number who
huvn kept tab nn the weather coiull
Hons of tho Willamette valley.
Heed men nMrt that sales of seed
are alsait one month earlier this year
than usual and (hat as far as (hey ran
learn, many crops are planted shnh
were not In the ground until the latter
part of April last y.-ar. A r nt pe
rlisl of bright, sunny weather, lias
broiiKht out the tunls 011 many of the
trees whb h lesve out early In the sea
son. In the southern part of the state
farmers have h.-cn compel.'. I to heat
their orchards by the liberal use of
crude nil to protect the early building
fruit tr.es from tin. frost in the last
few iiIkIus in southern Oregon.
MUCH LOCAL CHEESE
SOLD OUT OF STATE
Wbv rlu.es bss been scarce III Orn
gon for the past two or three months
and Is still In small supply, despite the
fad that enough Is made In 1 lllunioo
in more than take rare of the demnnd,
In this stntn. is explained by the fact
that vastly morn cheese, Is shipped out
of the state during the aeiison than Is
allowed to remain here. Ihla Is the
sole reason advanced by those In a po
Kltlon to know and accounts for the
high prices which havo been prevail
Ing for so long and which am still In
effect.
During the Inst 10 months something
over 60.000 boxes of cheese have been
shipped from Tillamook. (If this
amount approximately 9T.O0 boxes went
to I os Angeles, f.OOO boxes to Heattle,
1K00 to Kan Francisco. 2f.OO lo Tacomu
2000 to San Diego and something over
fcOO boxes lo Han Jose. In addition
large (piuntltles were shipped to Hi-
kHtie, Hncraniento ami other points out
of thn state. From theno figures It Is
shown that considerably morn than
half thn entire make In Tlllamisik
county Is sold outside tho state and the
wide distribution of thn product dur
ing tho season of heavy production Is
held by the makers to bn resisinslble
for Hie pr.-Hcnt shortage.
Wholesale prices today are 20 rents
Tlllamisik for triplets, with Young Am
irlcas selling at 21 rents.
DUE TO WEATHER
While several sheep misers were
planning to begin shearing owing to
the warm weather, the rain of the last
few days has caused a change and It
la now stated they will not begin tak
ing the clip for some time. Mean
while th-re. Is nothing doing In the
line of trading, although some buyers
would make contracts If liven half a
chance. Home of the growers are of
the opinion that higher prices can be
aerured a little later and are refusing
all contract offers.
Price are being fully maintained In
the lioston market, according to the
Commercial Ilulletln, of that city,
