94 THE SOUTHEEN" PLANTEE. [January, from want of medical attention, because they could not look on any man's face or have a doctor. Women doctors are now sent out to them, and hospitals are erected by various charities for even the poor outcast, who was formerly dragged to the temple to be scourged for her soul's health if she complained of suffering. Even to-day there is no hint nor trace of any high-caste woman to be seen abroad. We sometimes saw car riages entirely covered by draperies, in which the purdah ladies were riding, but, for the most part, they prefer being prisoners in their home land garden to this sort of airing.

, to I 1908.] THE SOUTHERN PLANTER. 95 BOOKS. Practical Farming. A plain book on treatment of the soil and crop production, especially designed for the every-day use of farmers and agricultural students. By W. F. Massey. Published by The Outing Publishing Co., New York. Price, $1.50. This is a book of 320 pages, as full of information of the most valuable character for the farmers as an egg is full of meat. It is written in Professor Massey's well-known, plain, forcible manner, and is devoid of technicalities, so that even the plain, ordinary, every-day farmer can understand it thoroughly and apply its teachings to his daily work. It brings science down to the comprehension of even those of very limited education and will en able every farmer who reads ana studies it to apply science in his calling. There is not a farmer in the land who cannot derive profit from reading this book and we hope to see it in every farmer's home. We can supply it at the published price, but to induce farmers to take and read it, we will give a year's subscription to The Planter to every one who orders the book from us and sends $1.50, the price of the book alone. The Horse Book. A practical treat ise on the American Horse Breeding Industry, as allied to the farm. By J. H .S. Johnstone, Assistant Editor of the Breeders' Gazette. Published by Sanders Publishing Co., Chicago. Price, $2.00 postpaid. We can supply the book at this price. In "The Horse Book," written by J. H. S. Johnstone, and just off the presses of the Sanders Publishing Co., the whole career of the horse is traced in the plainest of language and in convincing style. The author has had more practical experience with horses of all sorts than most men of his years and whatever he has set down he learned in that proverbially hard school which experience con- ducts. He has sought in every page eliminate the mysterious and make plain the path which those must tread who would learn about the horse. The story is told from beginning to end in a way that holds the interest of the reader, yet nails down convincingly the truths which is has been sought S to illuminate. MAGAZINES. Though the January issue of The Century is a "fiction number," the chief point of interest is the first two reproductions in color made in America from the new color photographs by the Lumiere process, the work of Eduard J. Steichen—transcriptions admirably indicating the subtlety, range and beauty of the process, which is the subject of an article by J. Nilsen Laurvik. The text as well as the pictures will interest not only professional photographers, but ama- INDRUROID RUBBER ROOFING The best and cheapest Roofing made ; absolutely Water- Proof ; practically Fire-Proof; climatic changes do not affect it ; strong and tough ; light in weight ; needs no paint ; easily applied ; any workman can put it on.
