Fall Calves.

Many persons provide for fall calves
so as to have plenty of milk for the
family during winter. But if the calf
sucks part of the milk, or is fed on
new milk, it will be very expensive
animal, and the family will have but
little benefit from the cow. How will
you raise the calf (ror when there is
such a demand for stock no calves
should be killed.? Let the calf suck
one or two days, so as to get
thoroughly physicked by its mother $
milk. Then take it from the COW, ard
put it in some comfortable quarters.
Learn it to drink milk, when it can be
easily done. Give it new, warm milk
for ten or twelve days. Then substl-
tute warm skinned milk. with spoon
full of oil meal in each feed. Increase
the oil meal gradually, until three
tablespoonsful can be safely given.
So soon as possible learn it to eat
shelled com When it will eat pint OF
corn at a feed, the oil meal can be dis
pensed with, except little every two
or three days. When two months old
it will have learned 10 eat sweet tim
othy hay. 1t can now have less milk,
but add a quart of wheat bran with
corn and oil meal. Carefully fed and
housed, in this way a calf at SIX
months old can be made to weigh
400 pounds, and will be worth as
much in the spring as calves one year
old, which have had ordinary rough
treatment through the winter.

Pigs for Next Year.

At this time when farmers are de
termining what nogs they will fatten,
is the proper season to determine what
to do for The next years crop of pigs.
Too many faVten all the sows which
mad pigs this season, and depend up
on thus years pigs for breeders mex
spring. But it is not the best policy
to kill any SOW which has proven her
self 10 be a good breeder and safe
sucker. Trouble and defeat Of the
whole years crop of pigs often occur
by relying on young and reckless sows
And there is another good reason why
good and SAFE breeding sows should
be saved another and probably several
years. They bring stronger and bet
ter pigs, which start off better, and
keep ahead in the race of fattening.
The price of good SOW, which has
been we'll tried, is small matter in
comparison to two large and thrifty
littlers of pigs per year.
1t is not time yet to breed sows, but
it is time to prepare for good lot Of
breeding sows for next years crop
The farmer ought to raise all his own
pigs, calves, sheep, and colts. This
is the legitimate, safe, and sure pro-
cess of farming. If the farmer has,
warm and comfortable quarters
for his sows, he can safely
breed them in the month of No
vember, . that they will farrow in the
month of March. But if sows are ex-
pected to try their luck by running in
pastures of wood>lots, at such time
they should not be bred until the mid
die of January. 1t pays well to have
the most ample preparation for brood
sows. If they have hitler in March
they can have another hitler in Au
gust or early in September. But i
they farrow the last of April or first
of May, it is almost impossible e
raise another brood in time before The
cold weather. A SOW will have pigs
six days less than four months from
the time s is bred. Every farmer
should know the exact time when his
sows are to farrow, then he can make
preparations accordingly. They
should be put in their apartments a
least week before narrowing so tina
they will get reconciled with thei
quarters. Cut the straw fine for thei
bedding. Do not disturb her for I
day or two, for when she wants fooC
or drink she will get up and call 70
them. She will appreciate kind treat
ment. Increase her food graduall'
Tor five or SIX days, then give her al
the rich food she will eat. Learn tn
pigs to eat as soon as possible. Pusl
them by all reasonable means, an
make them weight $50, pounds at 81.
months. Then sell. This is the SAT
way. No time for cholera. No tim
for idle al cital. No time for the Off
Ger to harass. Ia fact there is no DANCE
of an officer being after man who pc
pares his pigs for market in six months

fortune. He worked for others until he
had something laid by, when he went
to Virginia City, New, and commenced
a start for himself by constructing
tunnel north of the Ohpir mine. Here
he lost all he had made, and was glad
to get work again at 81 day as tim
herman in the Mexican mine.
He worked faithfully, early and late.
The acme of his ambition in those days
was to make S25, 900; sum with which
he hoped to make comfortable the de-
clining years of a beloved mother. In
1868 he became associated with j. Nj.
Walker, a brother of Governor Walker,
of Virginia, and then made his first
substantial start. In the next year
Messrs. Flood and O'Brien joined the
partnership, which continued for four
years, when Mr.. Fair took the place of
Mr. Walker.
The first few hundred thousand dol
lars of the firm were made during their
control of the Hale and NOrcross mine
in the three years of '65, '66 and 20.
Becoming the possessors of great wealth,
they purchased more and more territory
in the district known as the Comstock
lode in which they were satisfied vast
wealth was located. Their efforts here re-
suited in the opening of the Consolidated
Virginia and California, known as the
"BOnanZa ~ mines, from which up to
date there has been taken sos, 100000.
OF this, S73,000,000 has been clear
profit. How great have been the opera
tons of this firm is shown in the fact
that before these mines were discovered
and proftably developed, S500,O was
spent in prospecting, and that, too,
1920 feet under ground.
The lesson taught is that while much
luck has attended Mackay in his efforts,
his success is principally due to perse-
vering effort in one direction, in one To-
cality, instead of floating, as do the ma
jority of miners, from one part of the
country to another, as reports come OF
new discoveries. While Mr.. Mackay
remains most of his time at Virginia
CITY, much of the time 1000 feet under
ground, in the sweltering, dripping
mines, he owns beautiful residence in
Paris, where his wife at present resides,
and where his two children are being
educated. As no one can tell the extent
and richness of his mines, so Mr.. Mac
KAY does not himself know the amount
of his wealth. 1t is probably up be-
tween twenty and forty millions.

Eggs FOR WINTER UsE.-It is fool
ish plan, says the american Stoc6man,
to be seeking the best methods for put
ting down eggs for the winter use. This
used to be one of the first tests of thrifty
housekeeping. But it is better and just
as easy to have hens lay all the year
around. If hens have warm house
and enough to eat, and of the right kind,
they will lay in winter as well as in
summer. Farmers always expect to
feed some grain to the fowls; then if
they would save all of the waste meat
and scraps that accumulate from the ia
bic, and feed it to the hens in winter,
they would be repaid in fresh eggs. 1t
is also a good plan to hatch out some
early and some late chickens, as in that
way the late ones will be laying when
the older ones want to set.
