There is no other food on which young
pigs thrive so well rs on skinned milk

fond of whey, and do well on it prov
dad they have liberal allowance of In

whey alone is "a great waste OF fool and

SKINNED milk the fat forming material
which has been removed ia the butter,

The LATEST Man In the Country

One of the LATEST men in the ,f,ouu-
,ry is John Curtis, who is serving n
three years sentence in thf State
prison at Salem, Oregon. Curtis
worked in the foundry and ab4 tut three
months ago took off his boots on the
plea that they hurt him. ard then
burned his foot SO severely that lie was
laid up. When the burn wH : healed
he put vinegar on it, and nSSravated
it to prevent its getting weli. The
prison physician treated him, and
managed to cure the wound. Curtis
was set at work again. He worked
four days, and then with 2 hatchct cut
off hi , left hand. 1t took two blows.
One cut through the fieshy part of the
hand, the other clean through the
wrist joint. He confessed tha. ho did
il to avoid work. .-Ntn York IIorld.

HORSES GET TOO MUCH HAY.

When boy on n farm, says write
in Colman's Rural WOTid, / remember it
was standing rule to rake down little
hay into the horses rack every time any
one went into the stable. The result was
the horses would keep their grinders
going nearly all the time, and become
pot-bellicd, unsiehtly animals. Horses
fed in this way become mere machines,
or hay cutters the nutrition of the hay
is not assimi'atcd, and n large portion Of
it is wasted. BY such stuiiing, every
organ in the body is intcrferrCd with, and
when put on the road or to work on the
farm horse SO fed cannot move with any
comfort until relieved Of the supcrabuud-
ancc of feed. The disease known as
heavcs is generally due to o"cr- driving
when the stomach is full of hay. Bulk
in feeding is necessary, but when the food
is nearly all bulk an extreme has been
reached, aud it is time 20 change. Hay
should he fed with rs much care as grain
is fed. Different horses require differ
ent qualities, and in feeding Il now horse
it becomes IL matter of experiment until
his wants are asCcrtaipcd.

TICKS on SHEEP.

The English mutton herds Of sheep
ard their grades anil crosses are much
more liable To he troubled by ticks than
Mcrinos, says Joseph Harris in the .imeri-
can AgricuitHrid. Every English farmer
dips his sheep two or three times year
to Kill ticks. Scores Of preparations are
sold for this purpose, and men go round
from farm to farm with a convenient ap-
paratus for dipping the sheep, and do the
work at SO mach Il head.
AS to the relative merits Cf mutton
sheep and Mcrnos, much may he said.
But that is not our purpose ut this time :;
what we wish to say now is, if you arc
keeping any opcn-wooled sheep of any
kind and have not dipped them this fall,
do not let another week pass without
doing so. 1t is cruel to the sheep and Il

The World recently sent out reporter ~
n number OF the big breweries of New York
city to see If there was any truth in the woG<
derful stories told Of the drinking habits of
brewery employees, and IT claims that tho
widest stories are not eSaB seratcd. Brewery
hands are generally furnished, free gratis,
with all thu beer they can drink, and the
World man says that they take advantage OF
this privilege often to the extent of from
forty to ono hundred glasses daily. One
monumental beer. .2nzzler, who tips the scalc
nt30 pounds, has n record of l40 glasses in 4
single day. "Our men," said one brewer,
drink twenty to thirty glasses n day"
Another declared: ''Thc nverag, number OF
glasses drunk by our people during n day Is
seventy FIVE apiece, each glass holding half n
pint. We have few brilliant stars who con-
slider 100 glasses per diem to be only ordinary
exercise But what stars Six of them
weighed l52O pounds. Ii men were to be val.

to constitute excellence in hogs, no doubt all
the prizes at any exhibition of hnmnn an
imals would be carried Off by some of these
brewery hands. Their only competitors
would be some of their hest customers.
