Comfortable Sod Hnnaaa.

While it is generally the homesteaders
who build the sod houses or dug-outs,
find that many well-to-do people from
the Eastern and Middle States not only
construct them when they first arrive,
but afterwards hold to them because
they are 50 warm and comfortable. Here,
for example, is one upon which we came
this afternoon out OH the prairies near
Silver Creek, Nebraska. The occupants
were an intelligent family from Central
New York, who had first moved to
Indiana and then to this point. They
were as cozy as could be in this sod house,
maintaining that it was better than a
frame one, because warmer in winter and
cooler in summer. Sod houses as out
buildings might do good service in other
portions of the country as well us here in
the Far West.

Suffolk Pigs.

Among the small or middle races Of
English pigs breed occurs which is
close akin to the Essex-somewhat
larger in the body and shorter in the leg,
better haired and harder. A standard
authority thus describes them: "The
Black Sutiolks are short on the leg, long
in the body, well coated with long, silky
hair; the forehead broad, the nose short
and slightly turned up; ears rather short
but broad, with a tendency to droop for
ward; splendid shoulders, great jowls,
body wonderfully symmetrical. The
Suffolk more nearly realizes the theory
of the parallelogram than any other ami
NAL we know Of. The tail is set quite
on level with the hips; the hams are
deep and wide.' This is high praise
They are also praised for the excellence
of their pork, freedom from skin diseases,
and general yigor of constitution. They
resemble the Essex in many points, and
are equally valuable for crossing upon
the larger breeds.
The really careful breeding of pigs,
and the preservation of pedigrees in
England, dates lack but comparatively
few years, Pigs took their names from
the counties in which they were bred,
and breeders oreXhibitors at shows called
their pigs Sufiolks Of Norfolks perhaps,
so it happened that some white pigs that
won prizes at the shows, were imported
to this country under the name of Suf-
folks. The pigs were good and had quite
a run, but when we wanted more, VIC
found that Sufolks as recognized In
England were 5lack, and that the high
bred, small white breed were the small
Yorkshire, which were, so to speak, lik,
those we were familiar with as Suffolks
only more so. There have been occasion
al importations of Black Sufolks, bu
we know of no herd maintained and bret
pure. They probably have been crosse,
with the Essex, which they resemble
and which have a strong hold upon tn
regard ofour people.
