The farmer who looks after the com
fort of his stock should now direct his
attention to the winter quarters for his
swine. As a rule, no class of live stock
have so little attention given to their
and no other stock on
the farm shows a greater appreciation
of comfortable quarters. Any place or
ANYTHING is good enough for the hogs,
is the prevailing idea among farmers
Hogs are invariably kept for the profit
there is in them. The money returns
are what farmer sees when he buys
or breeds swine. This being true there
are two incentives for making the pig
pens and feed-lots as convenient and
pleasant as possible. First, for the
better returns for the amount OF feed.
Second, for the comfort of the hogs and
the pleasure there is in knowing that
your stock is being treated humanely.
A little planning now and a few hours
work may be of much value TO you
during the coming winter.-National
Stockman and Farmer.

litter measure has perhaps not seri-

-, rumored yesterday that q. strong
lament. composed for the most part OF

The extremists wanted a measure

hem that such law is bv no means

bssD induced to cooperate in a move

excessive license is one thing they
r,r,jcularly desire and then expect to
Be able to secure law which will re-
move gambling from first floors, and

There is so far as is known no clamor

ode Of Phoenix and il is dOub tiul ii any

d,he territory. For this reason 1t was
Intended to secure If possible the pas
sge OF an act which would effect this
civ and allow other cities and towns to
do as they please with the custom.
Such law ls OF course an impOsSlbllity
under the Harrison act unless it could
Be 50 framed that the power oil
sDpying it to the regulation OF
gambling could be left to the
llea governments o. towns. Although
WIN, has been done has been done
quietly the gamblers have not be n
caught asleep; to use an expression OF
their own they have "coppered" the
movement and are complacently await

They don't pretend TO have fixed the
cards, bot they say that such a turn a.
the antj-gamblers are looking for is
naturally contrary to the law OF chances

Anyway there is likely to be stub

gambling not in point of morality, but

we can get it, aid us greatly in carrying

the cash for labor and material, we
Will, If you have not got the money to
pay, accept produce of any kind, such
as wheat, corn, oats, fruit, potatoes,
wood, chickens, lard, in fact anything
we can use in any way. All we ask is
what is due us as a recompense for our
labor We have sent out a collector
this week with a number of bills, and
hope that when he calls you will be
prepared to settle, and that no n viii!
take offense at the presentation of the
bills. Help us now, friends. and we
promise you a good paper in the future
and one fully worth all we ask for it.
We will furnish the Herald and Trib-
une and American Farmer and Farm
News for one dollar a year, to all who
pay in advance. This is a good chance
to secure your county paper and a first
class agricultural paper for a small
amount, and none should neglect the
