When to Sell Hogs.-As ruls, write
H. B. Wilson in Practical Farmer. tho
best time to sell hogs is at six or eight
months of age. which is very easily
done II they are fed all the muscle
forming food they will eat after being
weaned, which should be when eight or
nine weeks old. The object should be
to keep the pig growing. When the pig
stops growing. he is losing money for
his owner. When four months old
their ration may be part corn. The
last four weeks before selling. the feed
may be almest entirely corn. They must
have plenty Of water at all times. Hogs
that are on full feed ought to have
ashes and charcoal at least twice .

wishes to conserve the moisture in the

important reason why crops should be
cultivated after each irrigation. The
roots of plants require air quite "a

was brought to light this morning. W. E.
Burt, a member OF one of the best and
most respectable families of the city, muir
dered his wife and two children, aged two
and four, last Friday night and placed the
dead bodies in cistern. The bodies of his
victims were found this morning in the
cistern on the premises occupied by the
Burt family up to Saturday last. Burt is
a brother of Roscoe and Silas Burt. prom
inent shoe dealers.
Early last week Burt told his brothers
he was going to Dallas to live Saturday
he sold his household goods, and on the
same night called on his brothers to in
form them that he would leave on the mid

children with his mother, who lives in a

not there, and yesterday the matter was
put into the hands of detective. who

daughters body, with those of the two
children. were found as stated. The heads
had been crushed and after death they
were thrown into the cistern. The body of
Mrs. Burt was carefully wrapped in a
blanket, which was tied with rope coiled

ankles. Burt evidently committee the ter
rible crime on Friday night as that was
the last time his victims were seen alive.

brothers succeeded In getting him out of
the trouble. The Governor this afternoon
offered reward of $500 for his arrest. His
