Strangely enough. there was nothing
Of which this crow stood 90 much in
fear as crows themselves. Often they
would come perilously near and ''csw"
at him. Heltor skelter no would fly to
the house, and his relief was painfully
manifested when he was safe inside the
kitchen. Their wild life evidently had
no charm for him. He was in terror Of
large snakes, too, but small ones he COB
bled up as fast as he could. 1t was
most effeotual way Of preventing them
from frightening him when they grew
bigger.
No attention was given to his educa.
ton, but at last we discovered that he
could repeat word or phrase Of con-
versation he had just heard. He could
laugh like human being and initiate
the cackling of hen. "Stopl' "Hel-
lol" "Hold onl' were favorite express
sions of his, and generally his use Of
them was intelligent He liked to perch
on top of the barn and shout out
"Stopr' at the farmers that went by in
their wagons. II they refined in their
horses, thinking it was some person that
had called them, the success Of his lit

much as to say: Come, now, here's n
good shot Why don't you hit meT'
But Jim was always too quick for them.
No boy ever could hit him. He would
dodge like lightning laughing hoarsely
as the ball flew harmlessly past or broke
In pieces ON the other side of the stump.
Then up he would hop again, with an.
other challenge, ready for the next snow.

of times without having any peroeptible
effect on him. But he was keenly alive
to its danger, and the very moment the
muzzle was pointed at him he lost no
time in getting out of the way.
Jim was very mischievous crow in
deed. When Grace, the baby. was learn
ing to walk, he would seize her slyly
by the dress and cause her to fall. He
would peck at the toes of the barefooted
children that came for water and laugh
heartily as he drove them dismayed
from the yard. Sometimes he would
steal unnoticed down into the cellar.
The blows he could give with his beak
had the force of of a small hammer so
that it was very easy matter for him
to turn the spigot of a barrel. One was
pretty apt to discover after such visit

So far as possible, the fall pigs should
be weaned and be well accustomed to
eating before severe cold weather sets
| in. 1t is difficult, unless more than or
binary care is taken, to wean pigs in
cold weather without stopping the
| growth tn some extent at least and
this is always to he avoided. Then, if
the pigs are not weaDed until late, the
sows cannot be bred to the best advan.
tage for the spring litters On nearly
every farm 1t is quite an item to have a
good supply of pigs for fall feeding, and
IN doing this the fall filters should be
weaned in good season so as to allow
the sows to ecuperate before breeding
again.
1t is best gradually to increase the
feed Of the pigs, commencing about 10
days before weaving, SO that by the
time they are weaned they can be given
all that they will eat up clean. 1t is
usually best to change the quarters Of
the pigs, putting them into new place,
rather than to change the sow, as they
will fret less than if in their accustomed
place. 1t is always best to allow them
to run out in order to afford them q
good opportunity to exercise, as q
healthier growth and development will
be secured if they can run out than if
closely confined.
Under ordinary conditions the separa-
tion can be made complete at once. II
the sow is given dry feed and stinted
ration for two or three days after the
pigs are taken from her, there will rare.
ly be any trouble with her, while the
pigs will not be benefited by allowing
them to suck again.
The pigs must have warm quarters
and be well fed, and at the same time
they must take exercise every day. 1t
may even be necessary to roust them out
of their beds, especially if the weather
Is cold, in order to make them take
exercise enough to keep healthy. A pig
loves warm bed and the more they lie
In it the less inclined they will be to
leave it, and they will get so that they
will refuse to come out to eat But with
little care at the start to keep them
vigorous this may readily be avoided
The aim in feeding is to keep the pigs
thrifty rather than fat, maintaining
steady growth every day, and in the
winter more than ordinary care is neces-
sary. If they can be kept growing rapid.
ly during the winter, fall pigs can usual.
ly he made profitable, but otherwise
they will prove loss. AT this season
they are often so stunted at weaving
that they never fully recover. Cor. st.
