TO KILL LOG - EAT ? Mt GOATS
Lumber Company Orders Herd Exe
cuted When lt Gets Entirely
Too Ravenous.
Goats are perfect marvels in clear
ing forest lands for cultivation. They
eat the brush down to thc roots, take
the "slash" from lumber operations xor
dessert, and prepare the forest for ag
riculture in a way that no man can
do except at great expense, says the
"Minneapolis Journal. In northern Min
nesota the homesteader or settler who
has a herd of goats is the envy of all
his neighbors. But when the goats
begin to eat sawlogs their usefulness
has passed: they become a menace to
society. This i? the danger that con
fronts northern Minnesota unless
groper precautions ore tullen.
In a semiofficial report to W. T. Cox,
state forester, a district ranger tells
and interesting experience. Finding
that it was somewhat expensive to
burn the "slash" and to carry out the
orders for forest tire prevention the
company decided to obtain a band of
gcats to do the work.
The goats d>J well. They ate all the
brush, all thc slrsh. tho arass and
the shrubbery. The lumber company
was pleased.
But when the grass and shrubbery,
brush and slash were exhausted the
goats tackled the pulpwood and the
logs. Directors of the company de
creed that the goats be slaughtered.
"This will teach lumber companies
not to cut their timber too small." war.
Mr. Cox' comment.
MOSLEMS TO BE RECOGNIZED
Legislation Will Wake Their Religion
Legally Recognized by
Hungary.
The Moslem religion will be legally
recognized in Hungary if a bill intro
duced by the Hungarian minister of
Justice is enacted into law by the Hun
garian diet.
In addition to giving the Moslem
religion every right enjoyed by any
other recognized faith in Hungary, the
proposed law will also permit the
teaching of Mohammedan dogma and
the founding of Moslem religious in
stitutions so far as they are not in
conflict with the existing laws.
While Mohammedans in Hungary
lave in the past enjoyed full liberty
cf conscience, they were as yet de
prived of certain civil rights which
iunctionaries of other recognized
creeds exercised. The bill now before
?the diet effaces some of these inabili
ties automatically, as soon as it be
comes a law, while others are removed
"hy express provisions, as was done in
the case of the Mohammedans of Bos
nia and Herzegovina,
Of Moslem communities in Hungary
the Danube island of Ada Kale, near
Orsova, is the largest, though groups
large enough to form religious com
munities are found in many parts of
the country. -?<- .

v> Richard Harding Davis, the war cor
respondent, said, the other day, in
Pittsburgh:
"The allies are getting together at
last. They are working together. In
their plans we see no moro selfishness.
"They were pretty selfish at first
Their selfishness was typical, in Cai t,

"This wealthy obi fellow, when the
economize-and-save movement vas at
its height, said warmly over a regalia

""Economize, ch? Economize, is lt?
"Well, by Jove, it's incredible hov; ene

"The most astounding extravagance
of the women of America is that we
?pend $10,000,000 each year for
poodles." Mrs. R. L. Barker told thia
to the delegates to tho annual meet
ing of thc Womens International Mis
sionary union recently in describing
kow American wemen make the
money fly. She continued:
"We spend more for ha!- yearly
than it takes to support tho army ar.d

More Horse Power Needed in
the South.
We must have more work stock
per mau to do our farm work
economically. Less work stock per
acre and more per man, so that each
man can cultivate many more acres,
will come as a necessity before the
earnings of the Southern farm will
be such as to produce a prosperous
rural south. We can no more con
tinue the old methods, using single
or one horse implements, than could
toe modern manufacturer use the
old machines and methods employed
in his business 25 years ago.
Some may aay we are using two
horse implements. A few are, but.
two trips through the south, fruin
Georgia to Texas and Oklahoma,
during the last two weeks during
active spring work reveal by actual
count mon* one-horse out lits prepar
ing the land than iwo horse outfits.
The one-horse farmer as indicated
by these observations outnumbers
the two-horse one and a half times.
We ueed more horses, not so
much to increase the acreage culti
vated, although it is important thal
the acreage cultivated per laborer
be increased, but especially lo enable
?each man to do better ami more
economical work. - Progressive
