warm Notes.
Feed the grain to hogs and cattle.
Pork and beef markets are promising.
Hold your grain IL you can. When
everybody Is rushing grain into the
market, 1t is no time to sell.
The man who is out of debt will live
longer than the man who is not II
possible try to outlive the mortgage.
Buffalo raised about 1900 bushels
OF potatoes and 5000 worth Of other
crops on her Pingree potato patches
this summer, and II is estimated that
the returns will be about IS for ev-
cry dollar invested.
Over-feeding is as wastful rs under
feeding, and mischief usually follows
having feet constantly In the trough.
MoveOver such a trough becomes stale
and uninviting even to a hog, and that
figures not little in his growth.
There are gain and profit both In sys-
tenn and regularity Of feeding.
Rye is a more paying crop on poor
land than when sown on that which
is rich. We do not yet prize fully the
value of rye for hogs. 1t Is through
rye and clover and hogs that many Of
our exhausted regions Of country are
yet to be reclaimed and rebuilt. It
has been demonstrated.
One of the great virtues Of rye Of .
food for hogs Is that 1t Is a grain pos
sessing more Of the elements of
growth rather than fattening pro-
perties, and the people now demand
a bacon hog. The day OF large fat
hogs is over, and there Is call for
lighter and better developed pigs Of
but 200 pound weight.
We must grind the rye for our pigs
but it Is not wise to feed 1t dry. 1t is
too sticky to eat with comfort, and
there is danger Of choking. 1t is
doubtful IL 1t is q wise thing to feed
any young stock on dry food. Make
a slop and have the pig take good
"belly stretcher'' ration every time,
remembering. too. he can be over fed.
Give the young pigs a fair start In
life by feeding the SOW upon milk pro-
ducing rations. There is nothing
much better than skim milk mixed
with shorts. Mangolds are excellent,
having a cooling effect upon the sys-
tenn, and stimulating the milk glands.
After weaving give the pigs a trough
OF their own.
The farmers who take pride in their
work. and read. study and systematiZe
are the class who will win. The poet
ry of farming has settled down to a
NOR. beautiful prose. The genii Of old
which accomplished so much In sin
gle day have become materialiZed. and
they take the form of II sulky plow.

Getting Grass ON Poor Lnn

If you have a patch Of poor land
that you wish to get into grass. seed
it to rye this fall, as this grain -four
ishes better than wheat on inferior
soils. In the spring SOW the clover
or mixture of clover and timothy,
and when the frost is out of the
ground and it has settled, go over the
field with a smoothing harrow. This
will do the rye no harm and will givc
the grasses such a depth Of root that
they will not be as easily killed by
dry weather as those sowed on the top
of the ground. Careful seeding in tho
case of grasses and clovers is Just as
important az with small grains.-Or-
ange Judd Farmer.

Protecting straw berries.

A correspondent writes us that .
good protector for strawberry plants
Is an earthen saucer, a foot in dame
ter, with hole in the center for the
plant to grow through. The advan-
tage claimed for its use are as fol-
lows: A much larger crop can be rails
ed and the berries will be much finer.
clean and free from dust or dirt Of
any kind. 1t acts as mulch to keep
the soil from drying out. and the rain
that falls, soaks into the soil directly
about the roots of the plants. 1t saves
time in cultivating because no weeds
can grow next to the plants, and the
berries are easier to pick. II the sau-
GERS are Inverted over the plants in
the winter they act AS n protection to
them.
We see nothing against this sau-
Ger, and should think that they would
be a very good thing for the purpose.

COttOnseed Feeding,

The Texas experiment station has
reached the following conclusions rela-
tive to experiments on the effect of
cottonseed feeding:
1. Cottonseed Increases and main
tains the milk flow.
2. 1t maintains the per cent Of fat In
milk
3. 1t enables churning to be done at
higher temperature, thus largely tax
ing the place Of ice.
4. Renders the butter harder to col
or, salt evenly and print satisfactorily.
5. 1t gives the butter more greasy
appearance, stiffy, waxy consistence
and a fat and somewhat tallowy taste.
6. These defects, however, are not
marked, and have been highly cxag-
gerated by many, and since cottonseed
and its products are so cheap and val
liable as food for dairy cattle 1t Is poor
economy not to use 1t more freely.
These seem wise conclusions. and
using Judgment always In the amount
fed not to inJure the dairy product, 1t
should be worked into the ration as
much as the traffic will bear" or az
the cow will assimilate to the best ad-
vantage and protit.-Dairy World.

Talking Freight Rates.

Chicago. Nov. 15-The western
freight agents are still struggling with
the question OF rates to Utah points to
meet the rates of the Southern Pacific
from the Pacific coast. and 1t may be

TO take any action. They were work

IL VIII BE Interesting.

Washington. Nov. 15.-The report OF
Secretary Smith will be one OF the
most interesting that has been made
by a secretary OF the interior for years.
There are several features which will
be an innovation In this department.
More interest centers around the rec
concentrations the secretary will make
for the settlement OF the Pacific rail-
way debts than anything else. 1t is
known Mr.. Smith believes In a contin-
uous line Of Pacific roads from Omaha
to the Pacific ocean and that he thinks
such a line can be operated to an ad-
vantage. Some time ago the secretary
held up all patents OF lands to the Pa
cinc railways which were bond aided.
amounting 10 100000 acres. Whether
this Is an indication that he intends TO
make some rather radical recommend
atlons to congress Is not known. but IL
Is a fact that the secretary has been
securing statistics relative to the earn
ings OF the roads and their capacity TO
earn enough to pay a moderate interest
upon the present indebtedness. II Is
expected that congress win undertake
TO legislate upon the subject OF Pacific
railroad Indebtedness during the CON-
ing session and the secretary will no
doubt recommend plan OF settlement

Inverness. Fla. Nov. 15.-The arrest
of Adolphus Snowden. near Folxston.
Ga, yesterday. is the sequel TO a re-
markable elopement. Ten days ago
Snowden eloped from this place with
Mrs. Mary Burelson. Mrs. Sallie Snow
den and Mrs. Alice Snowden, the two
latter being the Lothario's sisters-in-
law. Snowden is 10 years old and in
significant looking. while the women
are about 80 years old and handsome.
Each of the women. besides a husband.
left several children and comfortable
home.
On Saturday the elopers were located
near Folkston. Ga. where Snowden
was living with the women. One of the
women he represented as his wife, an
other his sister and the third as his
aunt Yesterday the deserted husbands
went TO Folkston and procured Snow
denis arrest. While the women were
in the boys presence they were COM
pletely dominated by him. but when
the officers removed him they broke
down, and weeping. begged their hus-
bands to take them back.
They claimed Snowden exercised
some strange power over them which
they were powerless TO resist, and said
he compelled them against their wills
to go with him. Snowden's physician
here says the bow Is an unconscious
hypnotist and by this power led the
women away. The husbands have not
decided what to do with their erring
wives
