spading the Poultry Yard.

The yard should be spaded as often
in the season as possible, in order to
turn under the filth, and also to have
the surface clean and free from weeds,
in order that less dampness may exist
in winter. When the ground is frozen
over IN winter or baked in summer, the
droppings will accumulate in the
yard; but if they are carefully spaded
and raked until the surface is smooth,
the cleaning can be done more easily.
On sandy soils the spading of the
yards loosens the top soil and permits
the rains to carry down much of the
filth that would otherwise remain. A
thorough cleaning up late in the sea-
son, before cold weather sets in, and
good drainage afforded, will greatly
aid in preventing disease in the hoca
Farm and Fireside.

WHEN TO SELL HOGS.
IN September and October the Pig Sup.
ply Usually Short.


While prices for hogs f1uctuate much,
sometimes when it is difficult to see
sufficient reason for change, it has
generally been true that prices have
been relatively higher a few weeks in
September and the early part of Octo-
Der. At this time the supply of fat
hogs is usually small. The spring
pigs are not yet ready for the market.
Comparatively few fall pigs are
dropped. Most farmers prefer to wait
until they can feed the new crop of
corn before beginning full feeding.
If we may judge of the past, it will
be good policy to have any small fall
pigs and brood sows, which it is not
desired to retain for breeding pur-
poses. ready for the market at this
time. For years past we lave thought
the common practice of allowing sows
to become quite thin in flesh while
sucking their filters a mistake. If
they are kept in fair flesh they can be
fattened in a short time after the pigs
are weaned. In several recent years
such sows would have been sold for as
much by the first of October as could
have been obtained for them at any
date notwithstanding their increase in
weight.
The evidence is strong that the sup
ply of good, fairly heavy hogs is now
small 1t is quite probable they will
be in good demand as cool weather
comes on. With present indications as
to prices for corn it would seem gooH
economy to feed with reference to
prompt fattening instead of with the
desire simply of keeping the hogs in
moderate fesh-a plan of doubtful
economy most generally. except for
breeding animals. Prairie Farmer.

LIVE STOCK NOTES.

TRY to improve your stock every
year, and thus add to your profits and
skill.
DON'T let the young pigs get raven
ously hungry, but do not overfeed
them.
If calf is half fed when young it
will never be the most profitable ami
NAL to keep.
GIVE the horses the best feed you
can get. They work hard and should
be we'll treated.
USE pure bred sires always. Pick
the best females for breeders, and
never breed to scrub stock.
EVERY man who practices mixed
farming has just as good a reason for
keeping variety of live stock.
Do YOU ever give the horses a drink
in the morning before feeding them
grain? If not try your own breakfast
that way once.
A YEARLING sheep that. has been
carefully attended to will sell in the
market with as much profit as any
other animal that is kept on the farm.
STOCK that is allowed to fall off in
condition is always kept at more or
less loss, for it costs as much or more
than it originally did to put them
back to the weight they have fallen
from.
Is YOUR horse well shod and does his
harness fit him? If not put on a pair
of boots one size too large or small
and let down one suspender and find
out for yourself how he feels.-Farm

CRATE FOR YOUNG STOCK.

one end, the handles slipped into the
iron sockets at the sides, the crate car
ried to the point desired, and the ami
NAL driven out at the other end. Such
a contrivance is specially valuable in
handling calves, which in many cases
can neither be led, driven or coaxed
along. The crate should be made light
but strong, spruce being the very best
wood for such constructions, as it is
light but exceedingly tough.-Ameri-

4 New Food for Cattle.

Cocoa husks have been found to have
an agricultural value about equal to
that of cotton cake. Trial expert
ments have shown that as cattle food
they are both palatabl and digestible,
and contain 35 per cent. OF nutritive
matter, while the nitrogen, phosphate
and potash they contain render them
valua BILE as manure.

Scranton, Miss,
Cupid Did Il.

Sunday morning last the south bound pass
senger train had on board an clipping couple
determined to be made man and wife, and
when the train arrived here they embarked
and hurriedly made their way to the clerks
office and were soon in possession Of the re-
quired document that would give any person
properly authorized by law authority to tie
the knot that would hold fast and hard the
aforesaid couple in the holy bonds Of matri-
mony. Armed with this edict Of the clerk a
hack was secured and the couple boarded it
and were driven to Moss Point, and going to
the residence Of Ed. l.. N. Brock, pastor Of
the Baptist church, to whom they made known
their desires and the reverend gentlemen soon
had them spliced after the most approved
fashion. Two souls with but a single thought,
two hearts that beat as one until death or the
divorce courts shall separate them.
The only strange feature about the affair is
that the groom on being questioned as to where
they were from talked evasively and only
stated that he was from Escambia county
Alabama, while the bride was q Mississi ppian
The name Of the groom is N. s. Ashley, and
that of the bride, as it appeared on the license
was Miss Eula Mcdonald. They admitted ia
having eloped. He said she was "just eight
Gen." He looked as il he was just thirty-fve
| and here endeth the first act in the drama Of
married life.
