Corn Is not the best food for young
hogs. yet as IL is more generally grown
than any other. and Is the cheapest
grain feed. II is the staple ration. A
diet OF peas is much better for making
growth. As the peas can be sown
broadcast. they need no cultivating.
and the crop may even be harvested
by turning the pigs In and letting them
eat what they will We know farmer
who every year grows three to FIVE
acres OF field peas. He gets the seed
from Canada to avoid the pea bug. but
In localities where few peas have been
grown the pea bug has so far disap-
peared for lack OF its favorite food
that the pea can be grown for several
years without any trouble from this
source. Our farmer usually gets % 70
30 bushels per acre. and says tie peas
cost less per busbel than the same
amount OF corn. He has the peas
ground with oats and corn. aud keeps
some OF this mixture to feed his pigs

grain feed does much more good than
II will In cold weather.-American Cul-

There Is nothing more essential 10 the
success Of a business man than the good
health OF himself and his family. This
is especially true OF the farmer. who
must give personal attention TO every
part OF his business and whose family
is closely connected with his work.
Anything that interferes with the use
fulness OF any one in the average farm
home is a serious hindrance. For bust
ness reasons. therefore. the farmer
cannot afford to have sickness In his
household. One OF the most common
causes Of sickness in the country is over
work. Many women especially suffer
from this cause and do not seem to real
lie II, nor do their households. Another
common cause OF sickness is neglect OF
sanitary precautions. The country
home is usually well situated to avoid
trouble OF this kind. but so often have
we seen surroundings that invited dis.
ease that we have thought a country
health inspector would not be out OF
place. II should not be difficult to pre-.
vent the pollution of air, water or food
In the country. and II these are all pure
there need be little fear of trouble.

the knowledge, that so many forms OF

Moose In New Brunswick.

The future of the moose, Oldest and
noblest of the game animals on this
continent, is a matter that has interested
a good many people. Mr.. Braithwaite,
who has lived among these animals all
his life, says there is no danger of their
diminution in New Brunswick. They
shed their antlers before the snow be-
comes deep in winter, and the sports
man who endeavors to carry away a
hornless moose is always roughly dealt
with by the magistrates down in the
settlements. The only relentless enemy
of the moose is the lumberman, who in
the depth of winter can make good use
of the meat. But in the region which is
the subject of this article there is little
lumber, and so there are few lumber
men. The degenerate Indians of the vii
lagos seldom trouble themselves to hunt,
and the few moose killed by hunters are
as nothing compared with the young
ones destroyed by the bears. Bruin gets
trapped because his coat will average
$40 to his captor. There are no wolves
i'll this wilderness, so the prospects for
the moose are getting better instead of
worse. And if there are thousands of
moose, there are tens of thousands of
caribou. -Frederick Irland in Serb

plows, which it cats itself OF carries to
its nest as food for the young robins.
The robin prefers smooth coated worms,

such food is scarce it does not disdain
the fuzzy caterpillar. 1t is an evil day
for the caterpillar when robin strikes
it. The robin picks it up and shakes it
and shakes it until it shakes the spines
