An interesting story comes to us from
Boston, where they tell it with bated
breath. 1t appears that the officials in
charge OF the Juvenile Department Of
the Boston Public Library have noticed
for the past week or two an unusual de
mand for copies Of Bunyan's Pilgrims
Progress. This demand was 80 much
in excess Of an! thing they had ever
known that they felt it necessary to in
veetigate the causes Of this unprece
dent.d interest in Bunyan. Inquiry re-
vea'e1 the fact that the teacher OF his
tory in a well known school has reached
the colonial events OF the seventeenth
century, and had recommended to all
her pupils the perusal of Buryan's
book as a part OF the photography of
the story OF the Pilgrim Fathers The
BoOKMAN.

the modern novel TO gigantic octopus,

this, it pictures with awestruck pen this

threatening to revolutiosize even the
nomenclature OF the hahitable portions
OF the globe. Here is a sp cimen OF the

bending of the 1x4-inch pieces will be

8 inches apart. 1t would be well
to leave an occasional loose bottom

REQUIRES JUDGMENT.

Starting n Herd OF ThOrOuEhbreds ~
n Serious Undertaking.
We have received numerous inquiries
from young breeders throughout the
country of late, asking our advice as to
the advisability of starting in the pure
bred swine business, and how they shall
go about it to build up herd. This
is subject upon which we do not wish
to give advice, says the Prairie Farmer,
for the reason that very much of the
success of the swine breeding business
depends upon the adaptability of the
breeder to the business. Where one
breeder will succeed and make money
out of the business, another, under like
conditions, will totally fail, and this is,
perhaps, wholly due to the want of
his liking to the business or his judg-
ment in carrying on the business.
We do not know of any time in the
history of >pure-bred swine breeding
when there was SO favorable an oppor-
tunity for young men to work into the
business. But it must be done in a
careful, judicious way, and expansion
must come with maturing Judgment.
There is a constantly increasing de-
mand for the best sort of pigs that ex-
perienced breeders can raise, and we
think that the demand for them will
not decrease for many years to come.
Our first advice would be to all who
wish to enter the business to post them
selves up well as to details-not only
as to the proper handling and manage
ment of the old and the young stock,
but as to the breeding of popular fam
lilies and getting them into line with
such stuff as there will likely be de-
mand for.
There would be just as much reason
in manufactures loading up his ware
house with a lot of goods for which he
anticipates demand after awhile, but
for which there was no present call, as
there is for breeder to raise uncalled
for stuff. A breeder must produce lust
such things as the buyer wants, and ii
the taste of the buyer changes year after
year the breeder must change with him
1t is all right In sentiment to educate
the buyers up to what you have to SELL
IT you can do 1t, but many have found
this process uphill work.

FISH FARMING PAYS.

"A Kansas Man Gives the Results OF
His Experience.
The Rural World has on many occa.
sions said that an acre of water devoted
to fish culture would bring much larger
returns than ifdeyoted to general farm.
ing. Mr. Lyons, of Kansas, has been
raising fish and has ponds devoted to
them, as well as furnishing ice for win
ter. Many of the fish live on crawfisb
and other natural food about the ponds
But that is not sufficient to supply the
vast number there now. Mr.. LYONS
leeds them corn. Hegrinds it by steam
power and then steams the meal. Five
bushels of this ground steamed corn is a
feed for each of the two principal ponds
On IT the fish thrive, and there are now
many there that will weigh as much as
30 or 35 pounds. Mr.. Lyons watches
them as one would herd of cattle. is
as careful about them as the most par
ticular stockman. He studied their ma.
ture and knows what to do with them
under varying circumstances. He
works with them day and night, when
ever they need attention. A careful esti-
mate of the supply there now, made by
experienced men, puts 1t at so tons,
making them worth close to $4,000.
The work on the ponds and dams has
made them worth an easy $4,000, max
ing valuable plant of it. The income
from the fish would pay very large

A Handy Farm Wagon ana Rellabl

A Handy Farm Wagon and Reliable
Harvester Combined.
The handy wagon, shown herewith,
I use fully as much as do my ordinary
farm wagon. To build it l used six
hard pine planks, a, 12 inches wide and
~ inches thick. The two middle
planks, al and az, are II feet long,
the outside planks, a a, two on each
side, are IA feet. They are bolted tor
gether with two by six piece, b, on top
at each end, with five-sixteen inch bolts,
At the front end of the two middle
planks on the under side I put an old
wagon rocker iron plate, G; on the upi
per side piece Of two by six, c, d, bolt
ed through the old rocker plate; bore
a hole for king-bolt. About "A feet
from the hind end, bolted with three
eighths-inch bolts piece of four by
six hard pine, c, eight feet long for the
hind axle. For wheels l bought two
old mowers, took them apart, had the
axles cut in two and bolted with clips
to the under side of each axle, letting
them into the wood one-half of their
thickness. The front axle is four feet
two inches long with hole in center
for kingbolt which has head on low
er end and hole for pin in the upper
end. The front end of the platform can
be raised or lowered by using washers
on top of front axle. A one-half inch
iron rod with loops in each end, one
end on the kingbolt, the other bolted on
top of platform, is to pull by. The
front end has to be kept up to under
side of front axle to keep from bending
the kingbolt. The tongue is framed
unto cross-piece three feet long and
braced with iron braces, The tongue is
fastened to front axle by eye bolts. On
the tongue just back of evener is bolted
ian old mower spring with seat so that a
man in the seat will nearly balance the
tongue. Use the evener for a foot rest

Product Of Poor Farming.

We generally think that the wide
awake and up-to-date farmer has the
advantage in everything. He generally
has, but the old saying that no rule is
without its exception holds good here.
The farmer who keeps the best hogs
cannot grow good quality of bristles.
II he has one of the hairy breeds that
show strong vitality the bristles from
q two or three-year-old boar may be
worth keeping as bristles. But they
will be far inferior to bristles from the
wild hog as It ranges the forests Of
continental Europe. The best brands
OF bristles have always come, and prob
ably will continue to do SO, from Rus.
sia. They are very stiff, and not even
the bristles from the wild hog as II
runs in southern woods are as good.
Probably our southern Wild pigs are
mostly killed before they have attained
age enough to have their bristles ma
ture. American Cultiyator,

FACTS FOR FARMERS.

Always use sufficient bedding in the
stables to absorb and save ali of the
liquid manure.
When farmer buys thing that he
can produce as cheaply, he is running
opposition to himself.
Common red clover and orchard
grass do well together, because they
ripen at about the same time.
Make, save and apply all of the
manure possible. 1t is the poorest Of
economy to allow manure to 20 to
waste on the farm and try commercial
fertilizers.

grating, and that is there is no proba,

lower the front end to cut the height
that you want by the washers on the
front axle. l cut about three or four
inches high. Two men gather the corn
and lay it back on the platform; one
gathers while the other lays his armful
back. Put stakes in the hind end. We
cut a row of average corn, about 60
rods, in ten to twelve minutes. Drive
to the stackyard and rick it; we do not
shock it. To rick it, drive stout stakes
and tie on poles or nail on fence board
high enough to lean the fodder against;
next load drive on the other side. Build
as thick as will cure well. After it is
partly cured you can add on more.

times blow down, but 1 prevent that
