1t is one of the chief difficulties OF
farming on q small acreage that tie

while there is not sufficient work to

horses soon eat more than their 10
Dor during q small part of the year
is worth. Yet the small farmer who
relies on hiring teap work done is
always handicapped by finding it i'm
possible to hire teams when he most
needs them. The only other re-
course is to change the methods of
farming. Put on more labor aad
capital per acre, and thus grow crops
which will keep the teams busy most

If there are days when no market

employed just az proftably in draw
q small farm will make it necessary

the teams eat. This is what market
gardeners almost inva iably do They
cannot afford to grow hay or grain
OF land that will produce five and
perhaps ten times as valuable a crop
in something else. Buying all their
feed they know just what it costs
them, and are less likely to lose by
keeping teams idle. The chief diff
fculty with many farmers in making
their farming pay is not recognizing
that the feed which they grow and
feed is worth its market value, and
that whatever eats such feed must
return at least what it has cost and
can be sold for. Unless this is at
tended to, the losses from non paying
stock will eat the profits that can be
made otherwise. American Guilt

Poultry for Women.

There are, without a doubt, more
women engaged in poultry breeding
in the West than in any other part
of the United States. And these
women, as q rule, are farmers wires
and daughters, who have SO much
other work to attend to on the farm
and IN the household, they cannot
give much time to the care of poul-
try, and for that reason must nee
essarily confne themselves to small
flocks. An exchange says. 1t will
pay ali such far better to keep strictly
pure bred fowls. and. in addition to
marketing the poultry, advertise the
eggs for sale for Matching purposes.
1t would be far better for them to
sell what eggs they could in this way
and hatch the remainder. A small
incubator would prove valuable 10
get out the stock, where eggs are
more plentiful than setting hens.
But stick to one breed, and give that
your time and attention 1t will pay
you best.

A Wonderful Girl

Sandow, the strong man, will have
to look out for his laurels. 1t is said
that there is 9.year-old girl living
near Huntsville, Ala, who bids fair
soon to eclipse his grandest feats o..
strength. She weighs 1862 pounds,
aud it is said that she lifts with ease
an anvil weighing 225 pounds. She
thinks nothing at all of picking up
and carrying about her father, q
blacksmith, who weighs $50 pounds
Her features are regular and hand
some, and she has extremely long ant
abundant hair.

In beating whites of eggs for
meringue or frosting do not add the

Individual salt.cellers are again in

They come in glass, silver and china,

A ESase Results Funny.

A fire in museum at Passaic, n
j., last week, caused panic among
the freaks. The "three-legged man.
in making his escape forgot his third
leg. The principal damage done was
to the complexion OF the tattooed

rescue some of her belongings, and
the fremen inadvertently turned tho
hose on her. with the result that most

Pork Pointers.

A damp, musty pile of straw does
not make hogs good bed.
Mouldy corn is not Gust as good"
for the hogs as sound corn.
Don't use scrub boar. The money
spent on a full-blood will soon come
back.
Dish water does not quench the
thirst as good supply of pure cold
water will.
If the boys have an interest in the
hogs, they will not grumble If they
have to feed them.
Dirty pens, and anything which
comes handy for feed, will never
bring hog to a profitable market.
All is not accomplished when you
get pure breed and popular strain,
though this is essential to begin
with.
There is little use of procuring the
best unless one recognizes the fact
that good care has as much bearing
on success with them as it has with
beef cattle or dairy COWS.

One OF the cardinal principles Of Demo
cracY is that tho people should support
the government and not the government
support the people, and Secretary Morton
is evidently thorough Democrat; in the
language of the street, he is on to his
Job. Recently Gov. Shortridge wrote
him complaining letter over the fail
ure of the agriculture lal department to
rid the Northwest OF the Russia thistle.
Secretary Morton, in letter Of some
length to the North Dakota governor,
calls attention to the failure of congress
to pass the S1,O00,OOO appropriation bill
for that purpose and concluded with this
very pertinent bit of Democracy.
Legislation providing money with
which TO weed farms in North Dakota by
taxinge armers in Kansas. Maine or Cali

NOT seem to have sufficient strength to
get into the statute books Of the United
States. When the weedless farms are
taxed to benefit the weedy ones, when
those who weed ther own farms are bur.
dened by the raising Of money with
which to clean the farms owned by peo-
pie not selffeltaht enough to weed them
themselves, it win be time to merge this
Republic into absolute paternalism and
elect somebody to act Us caretaking

The horse world was set on fire last
week by the phenomenal performance
Of Robert in pacing a heat in 2:O211a

be able to beat Robert out at the wire
by something like $50. We shall be

1t is generally understood of course that
these wells were put down under the
old artesian well law, now. repealed,
whercbythe county pays part, the town

property holders directly benefited. OF
the ten wells named only one was a
failure-the Willow Lake well-but the
Ola we'll has not been accepted-making
two the county will have to pay for il
the property holders specially taxed
choose to resist the assessment. Both
wells are flowing water to more or less
extent. The total cost of the ten wells
foots up s43.99S.59 an average of about
$4,4O0 for each we'll. The Grand View
and Torrey Lake weels are 8 inches in
diameter. all the rest are 6-inch wells
except that in Pleasant Grove, which is
4 inches. This explains in part the diff,
ference in cost Of the wells. The discrep-
ancy in the cost OF the wells OF the same
size is due in part to the way the con
tracts were made, and there Is room
still for vast improvement. In addition

Chamberlain has two and three others
