In Persia my lady rides on a gayly

A NEW DRUNK CURE.

Mayor Pngree, of Detroit, discovered
in potato culture a cure for poverty,
and now some other genius has dis
covered that the esculent tllber is a
much simpler and cheaper antidote
for dipping than the Kelley cure and
equally efficaclous. The Buffalo
Courier relates the case of man who
had signed the pledge. and after nd.
staining for awhile felt an irresistible
craving for whisky. He told friend
of his condition and fear that he would
be obliged to Violate his pledge. The
friend said: You need not drink.

dee water and raw potato. Peel the
potato and cut down one end Of It 70
a size convenient TO take in the mouth.
Dip the potatc in the ice water and
suck it every time you think you must
have whisky"
The man did as he was advised. lie

potato and placed them on the table
Mt the head of his bed, dipped The
potato in the water and placed It he

SUMMER FOOD FOR HOGS.


While There is difference of opinion
among pracvical breeders as to the
economy Of full feeding all CLASSES of
cattle and sheep during summer, there
iS more general agreement that, as a
rule, II is wise to feed both pigs and
older hogs literally all through the
season. The great value of some
green food fol hogs is aiso generally
recognized. Good clover pasture is one
of the best places for both brood sows
and their pigs. "A mixture of grass is
desirable rather than otherwise. OF
all the grasses, perhaps, blue grass rs
best liked by the llcgs. Orchard grass
has advantages from lbs early and lux
ur4iant growth, and because of its UNI
usual rapfdity of growth after being
cut or eaten off even In dry weather
when blue grass grows slowly or
scarcely at all
We much like rye for spring pastur-
age of sows aIId pigs. 1T starts its
growth very early in spring and is
quite palatable to the hogs. When NO
other provision has been made III wiz
be worth while to try early sowing of
spring rye with clover. This cannot
be pastured so early as that sown in
the fall. but often gives a good lot of
food. Some leave THE fail sown rye to
mature after pasturing, and allow the
hogs to harvest the grain.

much liked by good many hog
raisers. The peas generally do better
in fairly northern latiuudes than
farther south, but wherever garden
peas do we'll it ought to be possible TO
get fair results from the field varieties.
1t is usually recommended TO cover
the peas three or four Inches. When
the land has been prepared they may
be sown with a grain drill. In many
cases good results have come from
sowing them broadcast at the rate Of
two or three bushels per acre, then
plowlng them under, sowing the oats
on the plowed surface and narrowing
/ Them in.
The MIXED crop may he cut and fed
green, or the hogs may be turned into
! the field or lot. There is much waste
when this is done while the crop is
green, unless the lot lis divided. As a
means of saving labor some good hog
growers leave the crop until nearly
mature; then turn the hogs in, renaoy'
ing them if rains enough come to make
the ground muddy, turning in again
after the ground has dried.
Even If it be Thought best not to try
the peas, good deal of good food Is
cheaply supplied to the hogs by oats
alone.

ers that after July LIST. the Montana
:Sprospector must a dig hole at least 10
feet deep in solid formation, must
have at least one defined wall. and
NEST stake his ground SO that the
stakes can be found. The notice of
location must be placed conspicuously
at the discovery shaft, where 1t can be
seen-not on the stump of tree in
the neighborhood. He is allowed 80
days In which to do this work. If he
relocates an old prospect hole he is
required to sink it 10 feet deeper than
when he first found it. and takes and
records it the same as though it was
an original discovery. If he runs a
tunnel it must be at least 10 feet
long, so as to determine the fact that
