Those Who Have Tried Them Pronounca
Them q Great Success.
In order to be successful in wintering
Ewine, both old and young, it becomes
necessary for many hog raisers to give
the question of sleeping quarters more
serious attention. Many lot of nice,
thrifty shoats go into winter quarters
only to come out in the spring having
barely held their own in weight and
growth, and perhaps are somewhat
stuntesd. Wintering hogs in large
droves and around strawstacks is not
conducive to best results. One great
objection to the practice of many
farmers in allowing large numbers to
nest together is that they pile up in
cold weather, in which condition they
generate a good deal of moisture.
What farmer but what has seen the
steam rising from a nest of swine?
When they come forth from such
condition on 4 cold winter morning
they are very apt to take cold. When
they leave the nest wet and warm and
go out into exactly the other extreme

From tl.e Ye,Cs. B,.tehtnso,. kan.

from TIE Ne1Cs, Hutchinson, Kan.
Mrs. Grace Andrew, of Partridge, Kan
sas, IS well known, having lived in Part
ridge for many years. In former years she
was preacher In this locality. She is also
well versed in medicine. Although she
never took out a license as physician, her
advice has long been sought in preference
70 that OF the regular practitioner. For
these accounts she Is wen known as she is
highly respected by a large circle Mrs
Andrew recently gave reporter the fol-
lowing interesting interview.
-Four years ago began suffering from
lumbago and muscular rheumatism, and for
the two years next following grew continu-
ally worse despite the best efforts Of the
leading physicians of the locality. In my
efforts for relief finally tried box of DR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, and
from the first began to improve, and before
had taken two boxes was entirely cured.
! have never been bothered since, but am
enjoying the best of health. The sharp,
piercing pains which were so painful in my
back are felt no more, and all the symptoms
are gone.
81 am always ready to speak good word
for Pink Pills, and nave recommended them
to many of my afflicted friends, who have,
without a single exception, been greatly
benefited or enErely cnred.
I'm one instance a Indy friend had suf-
fered from female weakness for many years,
during which time she was not able to do
any of her homework and was practically
helpless. recommended Pink Pills to her.
She secured box and was soon convinced
of their superior quality and great value.
She is now doing all her own homework
and is strong and healthy, attTibutlng all to
Pink Pills.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
are specific for TROUBLES peculiar to fem ales,
such as supprsssions, Irregularities and all
forms of weakness. They build up the blood,
and restore the glow of health to pale and

MARKETING TURKEYS.
Bird OF Medium size and Weight Ara
the Best Sellers.

the Best Sellers.
We can offer a pointer on marketing
turkeys that we discovered while buy
ing Christmas turkeys in the city mar
ket, and that is the superiority OF
medium-sized turkeys over 20 to "a
Founders, as sellers. People, as rule.
do not want enough turkey at one time
to lay a banquet spread, and conse-
quently they pick for something small,
or not exceeding medium in size.
The hen turkeys always sell first,
simply because they are more suited in
size to the wants of the ordinary fam
lily. Then the smaller gobblers go, and
lastly the pride of the fock-tke big
gest tom in the lot-and he usually goes
ut a discount of two or three cents
pound less than the lesser weights.
A turkey that weighs from ten to fif-
teen poNnds dressed is plenty large
enough. The people don't want tur-
key as big as hog, but they do want
fat turkey.
1t seems to us that there is good deal
of room for improvement in breeding
turkeys for the market. That bird
shorter in legs and neck, and very full
in the breast, would be more desirable.
One that would be meaty and plump,
and capable of taking on a great deal
of fat.
The heavy weight, tall, raw boned
toms that weigh 25 to 40 pounds snay be
suited to barbecue feast, bu. they
are not the kind that the man with an
ordinary size market basket locks for
when he goes to the city market.
There would be more demand, and
better sale for turkeys all the year
through, if they were grown more with
a view to compact body, meat and fat,
than for large size and coarse structure.

AN UNPOPULAR POPULIST.

Whatever else Mayor Davie of Oakland
may not be, he is certainly not a good
Populist, for he has been read out OF his
party and held up to public scorn. be-
cause, although elected as that party's
candidate, he has violated its principles in
advocating an issue of bonds for municipal
improvements. Upon platform opposed
to the issuance of bonds" explains Pop
uIist who assisted in degrading him from
his high place as a member of the party,
John L. Davie was elected Mayor of Oak
land. But Mr.. Dayie had not been Mayor
three months before he came out for
bonds"
This same gentleman thus reports what
Mr.. Davie said to him in Justification at
is too bad the people do not understand
the difference between a Government bond
and municipal bond. a municipal bond
is for permanent improvements, and the
people get something out of it. We ought
to build a concrete wall around the city
front and fill behind it with dredgings
from the harbor. We ought to have every
street IN town paved with bitumen. We
can't do these things without bonds. Be-
sides, it would give 1000 men employment
for five years. We ought to have So, ,OO0, 900
IN bonds of that kind"
If it be, as this PopuIist antagonist of
Mayor Davie intimates, that the nomina-
| ton was secured merely to get the Office,
! and that Mr.. Davie was never Populist at
heart, then he has acted in bad faith and
| is unworthy. But at the same time it is
reasonable to assume that he was really q
! POputist when elected, and that the wis
dom which experience brings to an intelli-
gent and conscientious ffice-holder might
have broadened his understanding to the
extent OF alternating him from some Popu-
list doctrines.
The people of San Francisco, recognizing
the great advantages which would accrue
to the State from improving the shipping
facilities of this harbor, are moving siren
uously to rid their own harbor of the evils
which are far greater at Oakland and
| which shut that city against the commerce
OF the world. Mr.. Davie seems to be PROV
ing that he is a better Mayor than Populist
by advocating the creation of a debt
whose employment would not only pro-
duce the means for its own extinction but
which, in addition, would create a splendid
| profit, represented by the increased pros
perity, business and wealth of his city In
view of these considerations. Mayor Davie
can afford to rest under cloud which
may be really nimbus.
