In the midst ola stormy discussion
a gentleman rose to settle the matter
in dispute. Waving his hand majest-
ically he began: "Gentlemen. all ]
want is common sense" Exactly"
interrupted another; ''that is precise
ly what you do want" But Sir Ed
ward Clarke's retort in the Jameson
trial is still more to the purpose. The
attorney general had argued against
Sir Edward Clarke's points as being
contrary to common sense. Sir Ed
ward objected, "Then you, think.
said the lord chief justice dryly, that
common sense has nothing to do with
legal point?" NO" replied Sir Ed.

which never fails him; II am only of

HOG CHOLERA.
That and Other Swine Ailments and Their
Troatmeut.

That and Other Swine Ailments and Their
Treatment.
1t is well to bear in mind that there
are other diseases among hogs than
cholera Whenever hog is ailinp we
are told that cholera cures are in de-
mand. But it is not in cures, but in
prevention, that we must trust for i'm
munity from loss by swine disease, and
now Is good time to give attention to
this subject. In the first place, see to
the water supply, and under no circum.
stances allow hogs access to polluted
water. Many stock wells are located in
the barn yard, and often the drainage
from manure piles finds easy access.
At other times vermin burrow their
way beneath the platform and the well
proves an efficient trap, but who would
like to quench his thirst from such a
well? All such wells should be cleaned
at this season of the year and the
work done in q thorough manner.
The water should first be pumped out
and then the bottom of the well
cleaned of everything, for even loose
soil in a well contaminates the water
and makes it unfit for use. After
cleaning the well, the platform should
be firmly secured and banked around,
that surface water or vermin can not
enter. Water troughs should also be
kept clear and an occasional scrub
bling with hot water and soap won't
injure them in the least A few drops
td carbolic acid in the water at
this season of the year, say five to
seven drops for each hog. two or three
times week would prove beneficial. If
there is any disease in the neighbor-
hood give carbolic acid in the water
every day, for the acid has a tendency
to float on the surface of the water, and
in the hands of careless person seri-
GUS results might follow. Do not allow
the hogs to lie on piles of dust or on
heaps OF manure, but furnish them
clean quarters free from dust and filth.
Be careful in feeding and keep all
troughs sweet and clean, and if you
have no feeding floor, erect one at once,
If you must go in debt for the lumber.
We regard feeding floor as the first
requisite in feeding hogs and are fully
assured that the first lot of hogs fed
on floor will, in the increased gain
and saving of grain, pay all the cost;
and hogs fed on floor that is prompt
ly cleaned after each meal will have
one OF the prime causes of disease re-
moved The one word, cleanliness,
should be the motto of every swine
breeder, and when to this is added
ventilation, care in feeding and con-
tinuous vigilance, the ravages of dis
ease will at least be lessened.-West.

What Arc the Fronts :,

About what are the profits in the
lpoultry business?' asks q correspond
emit, and we can not answer it. Bust
ness is often what man makes it. An
enterprising farmer can make more
than a shiftless fellow, for he knows
that reward comes only to those who
work in the right direction. Some
years ago P. II. Jacobs, the well-known
editor OF the Poultry Keeper, made a
calculation that can well answer this
inquiry: I'm considering the matter,
let us compare such a venture with
other enterprises. In the first place,
laying the question in view-raisinp
poultry-aside, let us inquire what
amount of money the party who
is engaged in business is will
ing to invest. Many people of
limited means may place the
figures at $1,000, while Others NAV
name ten times that amount, but we
have found the latter class not very
numerous The interest on 81. 1000 is
only $50 per annum at six per cent,
while it is 5000 dollars on $4,000. In
most enterprises dividend of ten per
cent, after paying interest on capital,
is considered large and remunerative
one, and this can not be estimated un-
til all expenses are deducted. Adding
the interest and dividend, we must de-
rive a profit (no matter what the busi-
ness engaged in may bel of 16 per cent I;

In breeding circles just now the

great mercantile houses and factories,

were getting along with the old stock,
thus closing almost entirely one mar

This forced many firms to keep their

HERE AND THERE.

What's the use of talking good
breeds to a man who allows his hen
house to become filthy and his fowls
lousy?
-Weevil is very prevalent. this year
in most sections. Before cribbing
your corn or storing your wheat in the
granary, take care that these places
are thoroughly cleaned and lime
washed.
Sheep, says a writer, are subject
to internal parasites much more than
formerly, and focks are often dec
mated by them. Salt, sulphur and
spirits of turpentine are the best
remedy.
AN Australian sheep breeder has
been trying for many years to produce
q race of black sheep, but has given up
in disgust After years of careful
selection and breeding only from the
blacklist still more white than black
lambs came.
If it will not pay to feed costly
foods to common stock. neither will it
pay to feed cheap food to the same
sort. Common, unimproved stock of
any sort from horses and cows to dogs
and cats, are all back numbers, be-
cause they can not be made profitable.
-Hogging corn down is considered
extravagantly wasteful; but it is not
as wasteful as it seems 1t is doubt

and constitution of the board and a
meeting thereof as a board of equaliza-
ton together with their actions in the
matter in question; second, a notice of
the meeting as required by law. IL
seems quite clear to the court that IL
the notice Of the meeting. as prescribed
by law, Is at all material that the Civ
ing of 1t is absolutely essential 20 q
valid meeting. II the notice had not
been provided for and the statute had
only provided the board and the date
Of the meeting, that would have been
sufficient. but the statute provides for
the giving of the notice.
After the court had sustained the OBJ
lection to the record of the proceedings
of the board of equalization Mr.. Forbis
offered the tax roll in evidence, 10
which Mr.. Scallon also objected for the
same reason as given in his objection
to the board proceedings. He said that
IL the board of equalization was inn
properly constituted and had acted IL
legally that the tax was also improper
ly levied and was invalid.
The court again sustained the objec-
ton and said that IL one essential mat
ter had been ignored subsequent acts
could not make the improper act legal,
and the failure to follow the require
ments of the law in one essential was
fatal defect in the procedure in as
sessing taxes. The parties purchasing
tax titles are bound to take notice or
the regularity or irregularity of such
proceedings. This being a material
matter and the failure to show that the
taxes were properly equalized. and such
proceedings not having been legal II
was fatal to the tax assessment and
collection of taxes.
Mr.. Forbis took an exception to the
courts ruling and said he had no fur
Their testimony to offer except such as
would come under the ruling of the
court, and suggested that the defend
ant take a non-suit.
Mr.. Scallon, however. preferred TO
have a final judgment and said il the
plaintiff had no further evidence to
offer the defense would introduce none
and he moved for a judgment for the
defendants for costs. A judgment to
that effect was ordered entered.
