The Smithsonian Institution has re-
ceived collection which Is 4 import
ance TO the archaeologist- II is known
a. the Seton Karr contribution, having
been discovered by this Erglishman in
Somaliland, on the eastern coast Of At
RIGA The implements were purchased
from the discoyerer by the Smithsonian
Institution. There sre about so pieces
in the collection. made Of flint, OF our
tide. and ranging in size from an inch or
so in length TO half foot, some
weighing several pounds The objects
are supposed TO be spear heads, battle
axes and wedges. truncheons, biud-
geons OF whatever they may be termed.
The discoyerer had this to say on the
subject OF his find and the locality
where the objects we're unearthed:
Certain landmarks as to the -four
rivers mentioned in Genesis led me
think that the Garden Of Eden. if il
ever existed, may have been here, and
that these very tools had been made
and used by Adam and his numerous
descendants. At any rate, my discov
cries in Egypt and Somaliland lead m'
to the idea that mans original home
or the place where he was gradual,
evolved, must have been in Africa, o
at least, in tropical land, wher'
clothes we're unnecessary and food plen
tiful to hand.

Once upon a time a gentleman resi-

ouicIz-N Maturing Hogs.

There is no longer the demand Cor
the heavyweight hogs which used to
prevail when lard was what the hog
was mostly valued for. What IS most
wanted now are hogs that at seven or
eight months old will average a pound
a day. or n trife more. for each day OF
their lives. such hogs as these are IL
ways salable. and II is very rare that
they will not yield a profit to the grow

Before beginning to feed the spring
pigs much corn II is wei to select al
the long-bodied. thrifty young sows and
keep them for breeders. We never
knew even in most depressed times.
when a breeding SOW due to farrow in
the spring would not sell for much
more than her value for pork would
have been. What Is more. the breeding
sows need and should consume very
little grain. Some wheat middiings,
with such refuse fruit and vegetables
as would be otherwise wasted. will on
any farm keep two or more brood sows
until they are ready to farrow. This is
especially true in localities that are
largely devoted to growing vegetables
aud fruits.
