judicious and right culling of The sows
before the breeding season opens is one
Of the most important acts of the pro-
grcssive breeder and grower of swine.
The price at which the the produce
may sell must have more weight than
the number we aim to grow. Tho
breeder who can get high average
price on the pigs from half-dozen we'll
selected sows has more credit and profit
than the breeder who has farm over
run with sows and an uneven, unthrifty
lot of pigs. The latter may be as we'll
bred so far as their records show, but
the care and feed must be equal to the
breeding and as much better as he can
make them to reach high excellence and
paying prices So long as we let our
breeding herds down below the average
we cannot expect to sell the produce
above the average market price. The
tops bring the prices that reflect credit
aud bring pleasure along with profits.
If We are aiming for the high marks we
must learn to Gull numerically and per-
sistently. 1t is better to have half
dozen well-tested and successful brood
sows and score of even, healthy, we'll
bred ewes than to have droves and hocks
Of scrubs and smiling dams and off
spring
In raising hogs and sheep, as in rails
ing corn and potatoes, it is unwise to
have more than we can care for we'll in
good weather and bad. Not how many
pigs and lambs, but how good can we
grow, will be a motto for some men to
think over and practice. The reputa-
ton of farmer and even of his neigh
borhood is at stake. They can settle
now whether they shall take rank as
growers of inferior or superior animals
and crops. If they choose the latter it
will not be long until the buyers that
pay good prices for good thing will be
coming for their product. AS soon as
breeder has herds improved by selec-
ton above the average and the fruit and
berry-growers by selection of varieties
and methods furnish produce above the
average they are sure of more than the
average price. The principle of selec-
ton and culliug is never lost sight of
by the progressive breeder or farmer.
They are never satisfied with the aver
age. Their ideals are so far above those
of the general mass that they set exam
Piles worthy of imitation and that in
spire and even provoke neighbors to
better effort breeders Gazette.

As to Clover Seed.

After reading Mr.. Wings answer to
inquiry, "How to Get the Most Glover
Seed" in your issue of October 31st, l
have been wondering if it was all true
or whether Nature had jumped cog
with me. AS rule believe all read
in "the papers" and try to follow all the
advice given, but because of natural
disposition to rest whenever possible l
do not carry out all of the suggestions
| read:
Mr. Wing no doubt is correct in ad :
vising that "the first crop should not be
allowed to progress toward ripening."
The theory is right, and if facts do not
agree with the theory SO much the worse
for the facts have enterprising, in
dustrious neighbors, and this year when
the clover was in bloom they rushed in
and began making hay, and I-rested
After they were through they kindly
helped me We pat up ten acres of
clover, and few days later seventeen
acres more. The last cutting in the
latter field showed three, fourths of the
heads brown and dry Now this much
for the hay: My neighbors complain
that their hay nodded and rotted in the
NOW, while mine kept perfectly, and
this dry weather, with the meadows and
pastures scar and brown, the animals
eat it greedily-in fact will leave corn
uneaten until satisfied with hay.
In cutting for seed l was still like tn
cows tail-behind But in threshine
returns | was not entirely out of sight
My most enterprising neighbor got tire
pecks per acre of seed, and another threw
up the job because it did not pay From
the ten acres first cut | got twelve an,
one-half bushels of seed, and from tn
seventeen of later cutting | got fort,
bushels; and so thought-blessed b.
laziness. Perhaps there is luck in leisur'
after all Another fact that does moi
agree with the theories The best seet
and the best-filled heads were found il
the rich, black ground, and not on tn
thin clay knobs as would have beef
proper.-Jno. B. Peelle in The Breeder
Gazette.

The best time to begin with the gar
den for next year is now, which means
that the garden plot should be plowed
and then covered three or four inches
with manure free from litter, worked in
with a cultivator Next spring the
plot will be ready for seed early and the
manure will quickly decompose.

KANT contains crude sulphate of
potash and large proportion of com
mon salt When added to the manure
heap it assists in preventing loss of am
monia. the potash also being an excel
lent addition to the manure 1t is val
liable as disinfectant, and in proper
ton to cost is beneficial to greater ex-
tent than some other mineral fertilizers

A good compost may be made by al
ternate layers of leaves and rich earth i,
but the heap should lie for a year or
more undisturbed, then stirred several
times before using. Time must be given
the leaves to becoms thoroughly de-
cayed. The heap should be prepared
out doors where it will get the benefit
of rains and become and remain moist
to promote decay.

A Managing WIDOW.

n certain young widow Of Indianapo-
lis, who has just changed her weeds for
brighter hues, gave dinner party not
long ago, says the Indianapolis Sentinel.
The rooms Were decorated with a great
profusion of flowers Roses in masses
were ON tho mantels, and tho dinner
table fairly blossomed. In fact, the
abundance of flowers was unusual. One
of the guests could restrain her curiosity
no longer, and when the dessert was
brought III said:
Well, Mrs. Blank, you're rather
spreading on the flowers tonight -
Yes, replied the fair widow bright
ly, but tomorrow am going to take
them out to Crow Hill and put them on
poor Toms grave.
A regular "l3" SILVER went round

In the loftiest tower in the city of

scope, which is solidly attached to an
arrangement Of levers, while graduated
sections of II circle are arranged horizon

the moving of the telescope sideways or
up or down results in II change of posi-
tion of tho hands attached to the levers

Thus, the stability of the apparatus be-
ing assured by the tirmness of the fas-
tcning, whenever the telescope is focus
ed upon the same object tho hands will
point to the same figures on the hori-
zontal and ON the vertical sextant, and
since an index of the whole city has
been made it is but matter of few
seconds, when glare is discovered at
night. to direct upon the spot the topo-
scope ON the side, to read off the num-

CATARRH THREE YEARS.
A Cure is Found at Last in DR.. Hartman S
Free Treatment.

It reads like a novel. Every word OF
it, however, is prosaic history and ex-
act truth. A young man has before
him a brilliant career. Chronic ca
tarrh has fastened itself upon him. He
tried many remedies in vain. At col
lege a roommate persuaded him to try
Pe-ru-na. Pe-ru-na cures him in a
short time, and he goes on his way re-
ioicing. Without the Peru-na the
success in life would be impossible.
Chronic catarrh has blasted many a
career. 1t would have blasted this
young mans career if it had not been
for the kind suggestion of a friend.
Read what A. F. Stern, Marine City,
Mich, says:
81 was troubled with catarrh for
three years and tried almost every ca
tarrh medicine I heard of. [ went
down to Delaware, o., to attend col
lege, where / got one of your almanacs
and saw another remedy for catarrh. l
was almost discouraged with trying all
kinds of medicine, but my roommate
told me that your medicine was all
right, and so l tried it. After taking
seven bottles according to directions, I
was cured and felt like new man. /
recommend it to all who are suffering
with this dreadful disease: 1t is the
best medicine for catarrh. owe my
health to you"
All catarrh sufferers will be interest
ed in book written by DR.. Hartman
It is an instruetively illustrated o.
page book, and treats of catarrh in all
it's stages and locations. 1t will be
sent free for a short time by The
Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Com
pany, Columbus, Ohio.
