To Make Hog Raising Pay.

have been raising hogs Tor several
years, have raised great many, and
have never seen the time when they
did not pay unless they die Farmers
are too easily discouraged. If they
have dozen or two hogs on hand and
crops are bad they will give them away
rather than try to keep them over, and
the following year brings IA big corn
crop and they have no hogs, and rather
than buy enough to feed for their meat
they sell their corn from fifteen to
twenty-five cents per bushel, take the
proceeds from their corn and buy their
meat. This is mistaken idea of farm
ers. They should always try to keep
hogs enough with their other stock to
eat up their corn, as ninety-nine times
out of one hundred you will get better
prices for your corn, besides you have
the manure on your farm.-Swineherd.

FEEDING LIVE STOCK.
Expcriencc, There Is No Doubt, Beats
Theory Every Time.


A correspondent wants us to tell him
how to feed ground linseed cake, and
also wants to know why it is better
than corn or oats. This is all reasona-
BILE enough, but we are reminded that
it is easier to ask questions than an
swer them satisfactorily. There are
hardly two feeders who follow the same
plan. Those who use most of it learned
to use it through practice. We know
one feeder who fattened large bunch
of steers on ground linseed cake and
hay alone and made great success, to
the great surprise of his neighbors.
lie is Scotchman and claimed to be
following the method in vogue where
he came from. Another feeder, who
lives in Iowa, buys steers in the spring
and fattens them on ground linseed
cake, corn and grass, and sells them in
the fall. He winters no cattle, and he
claims to make money that way.
These are extreme cases, and we
would not recommend either to be-
ginner.
A good authority claims that in a
hundred pounds of corn eight pounds
| go to make muscle and bone and seven
| ty-tve pounds to make fat. In q hun
ored pounds of oats eight pounds
| go to muscle and bone and fifty-five
| pounds to fat. But in hundred pounds
of ground linseed cake seventy-five
| pounds go to muscle and bone and forty
pounds to fat. These are probably, at
least approximately, correct 1t seems
| plain, therefore, that if fat alone is
wanted, corn is the best food. But if
muscle and bone are wanted, then the
linsced cake is far ahead. 1t stands to
reason, then, that for young growing
animals the linseed cake is most desira-
ble. We believe, however, that a
mixed ration will give the best results.
1t is claimed for the cake, however, that
even where animals are fed for fatten-
ing, goodly quantity of it can be fed
to advantage, owing to its having the
effect of keeping the stomach in good
condition and causing all food to be
more readily assimilated. The fact is,
the use of linsee6 cake in this country
is yet in its infancy. No one has re.
duced it to set of rules. Those who
have used it most seem to be the best
pleased with the results. Some mix il
up in a slop or mash for pigs and others
feed it dry. 1t does seem, too that
those who feed most of it prefer i,
ground pretty coarse and feed it dry
either by itself or mixed with oats oil
corn, or both. Farmer.

WHEN you have the sprayer on your
back step into the poultry house and
spray it with the Bordeaux mixture.
Spray roof. walls and floor thoroughly.

When this cheap food supply is cut off
from the flock they will appreciate an
occasional ration of meat or cut green

On an exclusive diet of grain is mex
cusable cruelty. A partial diet of grass
and vegetables is vastly better and
cheaper.
EGGS are better and cheaper food
than pork for this hot weather. Farm
srs can raise the price of eggs by using
more of them on their own tables and
promote health at the same time.

depend on n lining of tarred paper to
prevent lice from harboring in IL poul-

whitewash and kerosene inside, and
dry lime or pyrethrum in nests and lice
will not trouble the flock, and the

them. 1t is best after they learn to
eat and fly about to keep them away
from the old birds; they do much bet
ter and do not annoy them when they
are setting on eggs again. The plan
is clearly shown in Fig. and the coop
in Figs l and 5. The former gives an
idea of the construction, the latter the
details of the interior. In order to
make all the room possible on the
ground floor, raise the nests up two
feet from the ground in the darkest
part of the coop. A window and an
entrance form the front, door on the
autside-a place to enter the coop by.
The length of the building is seven
feet, width five and one-half feet,
hight six feet ut top and four feet at
base, giving a good slant to the roof.
Roosts, dust box, water fountain and

Digging Necessary to uenlth.

The practice of dipping sheep in .he
spring and fall is useful ard hea1thful
in two ways. 1t gets rid of the innu-
merable cutaneous parasites mat infest
the flock and weary them by their con-
tinual biting and the consequent ex-
haustion by the loss of so much blood,
and it is equal to < warm bath, which
so refreshes the owner tired and an
noyed by the constant gathering of un-
wholesome eNcretions from the skin.
This eXcretion Is enormous in the sheep,
and as the yolls and grease which col
lect in so large IL quantity on the sheep
prevent the healthfui perspiration
which would otherwise carry Off inn
pure matter that must necessarily be
got rid of to preserve the animal in
good health, and as this interferes as
every other unhealthful condition with
the growth of the fleece, as well us with
the yigor of the sheep and the pros
perity of the lamb, it will pay to dip
the flock, although there may be no
ticks or scab to make it imperative.

A STORY OF THE WAR.
Interesting Incident In the Army Life
a Connecticut Man.

a Connecticut Man.
A short time ago Postmaster James
Bracken, of Webster, was invited out
to tea, at the residence of an intimate
friend. Al the table were small party
OF friends, and during the pleasant
conversation one of the ladies stated
that she was a native of Baltimore,
Md, and when but miss of ten years
resided in that city, in January, 1864.
The conversation was very interesting
to Mr.. Braclien, who was a veteran of
the war, and he stated to the lady (who,
by the way, made your correspondent
pledge that he would not use her name)
that he was a member of Company H,
First Connecticut cavalry, and in the
winter of 1864 and '65 was doing patrol
duty in that city. 1t was soon dis
covered that the lady and Mr.. Braclien
had now met under different circum-
stances in this unexpected meeting in
the quiet house in Webster twenty
nine years after their first introduction
in the secession city of Baltimore. The
story is as follows:
In January, 1864, the piclsets outside
the city discovered young man run
ming the patrol, having all the appear
ance of a southern spy. They gave
chase, but the fellow got into the city
and eluded the union troops. Word
was sent to Col. French of the First
Connecticut cavalry, who was provost
marshal of the city; and he sent out
several squads to search places well
known to him as being in sympathy
with the south. AS luck would have it,
Mr.. Braclten and five others were or.
dered to the home of Mrs. w. T., Powell,
on Fulton street, o lady who ofttimes
would come out of the house, stand on
the doorstep, when the boys were
watering their horses, and give three
cheers for Jeff Davis" Guards were
stationed at the front and rear en-
frances to the house, while four union
soldiers, one of whom was Comrade
Bracken, entered the house, searching
from cellar to attic for the rebel mail
carrier.
He was not found in the house and
was never heard or seen after in the
city. Mr.. Bracken, at this meeting
with the woman who, twenty-nine
years ago, was but blushing miss, was
informed that the old lady, Mrs.
Powell, then n widow, and her grand
mother, mistrusting that her home
would be searched, put the dashing
wild fellow in the bed between the
straw tick and the feather bed, made
the two girls-this Webster lady and
her cousin, eleven years of age-un-
dress and go to bed, the southern chap
being beneath them. safely hidden
away. The union boys entered the
sleeping chamber, looking under the
bed, into the closets, up the chimney,
but no traces of their hidden man did
they find. He was let out during the
night, the lady said, and after having
| delivered his mail from the south,
thinking it was too warm, went back
to Richmond. His route, averaging
three weeks for trip, was from Balti.

Lambs That Pay Best.

Lambs that grow fast are the ones
that pay, because they reach the mar
ket while prices are high. A difference
of only week in getting lamb to y
marlntable weight may entail loss of
one dllar on its value. That is the
best ieason for using rams of the NUT
ton treeds for producing early lambs
the lambs grow rapidly. An early lamb
is woth more than fall grown sheep

Horrors OF the Field OF Carnage After
the Fighting Has Long Since Ceased.
Only those commanding corps and di-
visions have posts from which to sur
vey battlefield while the fight is on.
If the battle Is furious all along the
line, even the general in command
may not be able to take in over half n
mile in front One may have been in n
dozen battles without witnessing more
than the maneuvers of brigade. Bat
ties usually end in withdrawal and
pursuit. In either case nearly all the
troops on both sides are set in motion,
and SO men who have been fighting all
day march away and see only the dead
and wounded in their front. But very
few wounded are brought in by night,
and the dead can wait for the sun to
rise. To move about on the field at
night is to take your life in your hand.
There are ghouls robbing the dead who
will fire upon you, and there are
wounded men who will treat you as a
foe. There are riderless horses gallop-
ing about, while others, mGddened with
the pain of wounds, will rush at you
opened-mouthed from the darkness.
1t is when morning comes again that
those left behind to bring in the
wounded, bury the dead and collect the
equipments scattered over miles of
ground perhaps can see and fully realize
how fierce and deadly the fighting was.
The dead are not all on the battle lines.
