Agricultural and Live Stock Department.

The pigs can not be pushed too
tast. The farmer who intelligentlv
masters the art of making his pigs
ready for market at six months old
and persistently follows the BUSH
ness, will most certainly prosper.
Five feelings a day for the first
month after weaving is not too
many; and then see that they have
exercise.
The man who feeds pig nine
months to attain a weight possible
III six loses the labor Of the extra
three months as we'll as the excess
OF feed. The cheapest meat is al
ways made from young animals.
The risk from loss is greatly re-
duced by the shortened time, and
by the fact that gaining animals are
less liable to disease.
The pig which does not follow his
instinct and try to get more than
his share out of the feed trough is
not worth much; but for this reason
1t is best not to let pigs feed to-
gether in large numbers, for some
will always be at a disadvantage.
Even in young litter, If it is large -,
it is better to divide them.

The Coming Baby.

When the baby comes to the house
real happiness comes. The care and
anxiety count for nothing against the
clinging touch of the little hands and
the sound of the little voice. The high
est function given to human beings is
bringing healthy, happy children into
the world. Over thirty years ago the
needs of women appealed to DIR. Pierce
now chief consulting physician TO the
Invalid's Hotel and Surgical Institute,
of Buffalo, n. Y. The result of his study
improved by thirty years of practice is
embodied in DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription. 1t strengthens, purities and
makes healthy the organs distinctly
feminine. 1t gives weak women the
strength and health necessary for the
production of healthy children and it
makes the bearing of those children
easy. 1t is sure to cure any weakness
or arrangement peculiar to women /;
stops pain, soOthes inflammation, purihes,
streng thens, invigorates.

Poultry.

Poultry.
Common fowls will no longer do.
Whether you raise them for the
market or in the business for eggs,
or merely keep chickens for family
use, it will pay to start with pure
bred flOcks.
A dark room and damp floor are
fatal to success with fowls. See
that you have a sunny window and
dry floor in the hen house next
winter. Sun, warmth and dryness
will ensure good health, cheaper
feeding anu more eggs.
Catch your birds at night, with a
lantern if need be, and the rest will
know nothing about 1t. Brighten
chickens as little as possible by
chasing or trying to catch them, as
it will make them afraid of any one
who approaches, and habitually
shy.
1t takes but few days for the
disease known as "scaly legs" to
spread through an entire flock of
fowls. One application of lard or
any grease will effectually cure il.
w AOh VIC NOV pIBi VI ~ appears
grease the shanks of the whole flock
at once.
Particular pains should be taken
at all times to procure new blood for
the farm fiocks. The inbreeding of
fowls on the farms of the country is
practice which has been so long in
vogue that it is little wonder that
the constitutions of our ordinary
farm yard stock has become ma
terially weakened. Such a course
could result in nothing superior to
scrubs.
Early beets planted any time be-
fore July 10, will mature, and they
are especially relished by hens; the
same is true of turnips, and with
good care they seldom fail to yield
good crop; cabbage set out at this
season will produce large heads, and
have the advantage of being u crop
which can be kept without special
precautions against frost. Time
can not be spent to better purpose
than in preparing for supply of
this kind of green food for the
poultry during the winter.

If corn smut is cut off and thrown
away before it ripens it can do no
more harm; after that it can be de-
stroyed only by fire. 1t reaches its
fullest development about the time
the corn forms on the ear. Do not
make the mistake of feeding it, to
be again given to the ground IN
manure.
Poor farming, poor stock and
wasted manure are the result of the
poor use of human brains; and the
man who is too poor to avail himself
of the means of education is usually
the one who spends as much for
tobacco and other follies.
Second hand knowledge is but
half knowledge and there is a pleas
ure in knowing a thing for ones
self. Every farmer should be an
eXperimenter.
On new ground precious wealth is
often destroyed because of the &C.
casioral burning of the underground
to give grass an earlier start in the
spring. When brought under cul-
tivation it's richness in vegetable
matter is often found not up to our
expectations.
At blowing time the corn stalks
are often burned, but the better way
is to stack them in some place to
rot, that they may be by and by re-
turned to the land.
Put your money in labor rather
than in lands. Concentrated labor
in agriculture will pay. A large
farm, specifically titled, will bring
neither satisfaction nor profit.
Much richness awaits deliverance
from the imprisoning clod. 1t is
cheaper to make available the plant
food already in the soil by thorough
tillage than it is to supply the lack
by fresh quantities of new fer
tiliZers
Careful men differ as to the good
results from commercial fertilizers,
but all agree that we'll cared for
stable manure never fails to show
its virtues.
There must needs come times of
depression in all business. What
ever it costs to raise an acre Of
wheat, there is monev in itas a rota-
ton crop, for after it we raise our
best corn. Then there is always a
value to the stock in the straw.
There is a generation to come
which will see an exodus from the
city to the country larger than the
stream which has been so strongly
pouring the other way in recent
years. Agriculture is in a state of
progress, despite these hard and
troublOus times we have had. The
business of husbandry is not over
crowded. and never will be. There
is less food capita in the world
than ever before in all the history
of civilization.
However bulky the grain crops of
the countries Of the eastern CONT
nent, they cannot hold their own
with American grains in quality.
The time is ripe to strike for in
creased expectations of surplus farm
products of every kind.
There is bright side to forestry,
and all the preaching has not been
in vain. During the last 10 years
the West has planted many hun
dreds of acres in trees of the noblest
kind. Iowa alone has transplqnted
$4,000 900 trees. This is encourage
ing, and there could be no more
profitable move than this upon
thousands and thousands of acres of
the hard worked hillsides of our
Eastern and Middle States and
then wiser generation will stop
the wasteful extravaganza in which
this age has INDUCED for the sake
of the money in sight. This has
bean almost an age of murder.

SWINE.

If the sows were bred in December
the pigs were just right this spring
to go on and make good growth |;
but this, of course, is only true of
such as had dry, warm quarters.
1t is mistaken notion that
smaller breeds of sires should be
used to procure early maturing
hogs. Those of medium size are
greatly preferable If meat and
weight are wanted soon.
Feed the breeding SOW on sue
culent food. She must be in thrifty
condition to produce thrifty pigs.
Cooked or steamed clover, turnips,
potatoes, beets, and a variety Of
other food, with a due proportion of
grain, will keep her in thrifty con-

Dairy.

Dairy.
Sprinkling the floor of the cheese
room with the coolest water OBJ
tainahle, at frequent intervals dur
ing the day, will help greatly in
maintaining the low degree of tenn
perature desirable and so needful.
If you do not breed what you want,
some one else will have to do it, and
it is cheaper to raise the cows you
want than to buy them, and much
surer way; in short, to get some
thing better than you have, breed
it.
Never give the cows reason to let
up on their milk giving for a single
day, and then they will always be
at their best. In this great forage
crop country of ours cows shou d
never have to suffer OH account of
dry weather pasture. Have some
thing in store when the dry weather
strikes them.
We must usually be content to
have the cow as she has been train
ed. 1t is not desirable to have her
eating while being MIXED, but to
change the custom is to lose milk
A cow is largely influenced by train
ing and habit, and any change in
custom in feeding or milking will
affect the milk flow.
Fine butter has its origin further
back than the churn. Thai which
affects the price most is the flavor,
and unless this is beyond criticism
there can be no gilt edge price for
it. The flavor depends on the flavor
of the milk, and the flavor of the
milk depends on the food and the
health and surroundings of the COW.
Millet is luXuriant grower, and,
like clover, contains a large per
cent. of albuTinoids, which makes
it especially valuable for milk. 1t
yields from three to six tons an acre,
and is easily cured. If you have
some good rotten turf it may pay
you to try an acre or two of it an
other year.

they are superior in several ways to
the common black ones. In any
event, they are better workers and
more easily controlled.
The surroundings of bee hives
should be such that the water will
soon disappear after rain. Damp
ness in and about the hives means
sick bees.

Horses.


We are sure to be repaid for any
labor bestowed in the bringing up
of a horse. When it comes to the
matter of setting price there is a
good deal in the training and educa-
ton he had.
Shoe your young horses as little
and lightly as possible; your older
ones, too, for that matter.
If you would avoid having your
horses sore under the collar, battle
the shoulders each night with strong
salt wafer after removing the har-
ness.
Lack of care has more to do with
the wearing out of our farm horses
than has hard work. The race
horse is often good at 20 years, be-
cause he has the best care and in
telligence self interest can give.
Ii you have horse to sell, fattep
him up, curry him daily until he is
sleek as can be, trim off all the
shaggy hair about his legs, and
make him look as if you placed
some value on him yourself; in any
event, let it seem that you thought
MIN worth caring for. lie will then
sell for what he is worth; otherwise
he will not.
The draft horse is a profitable one
for the farmer to raise Cor more than
one reason. The chief qualification S
of size and soundness are easily at
tanned by ordinary judgment; he is
easily broken and worked; and, if
unbroken, he still meets the de-
mand OF the greatest number of
buyers. During the process of rear
ing, so many of intermediary size
will be produced, and these will
supply the demand for the ordinary
horses at home, and fit into the
work of omnibuses and lighter ex.
press work Therefore, aim for the
1000 pound horse, and you will not
miss profit.
