TIMELY FARM NOTES.

Hogs thrive best when not excited
or disturbed.
Keep some of the best hay for the
spring feeding.
Get ready to set out good strawber-
~ bed in the spring.
Mango in horses or hogs is caused by
an insect which burrows itself into the
skin.
Growing pigs will keep healthier if
they have plenty of opportunity for
exercise.
Mineral matter in the food aids in
the digestion and absorption of the
other nutriments.
Commence feeding the lambs intend
ed for market as soon as they show a
disposition to eat.
Milk and bran will grow a thrifty
pig with good frame ready to fatten
on grain for market.
The only objection to low limbed
trees is that they are not so conven-
lent to cultivate under.
To send apples to market put only one
variety in barrel marking the name
plainly on the head end.
In all farm work to obtain the best
results the work must be done in the
best manner and at the proper time.
Good digestion is the result of feed
ing the animal enough to sustain the
animal, but not overload the stomach.

on, and should be we'll nailed to the

three frames. frame pieces or posts
should be made Of 12-inch stuff. This
makes a very cheap rack. One ~ feet

Either grain or rough feed can be fed
in this rack, but only one at a time.
My sheep are admitted from the stable

to a straw stack while I am filling the

CORN STALK DISEASE.

Scientists Cannot Agree Upon Its Ma
ture or Effect.
The farmers of Nebraska and Iowa
seem to have suffered more from the
corn-stalk disease this season than ever
before, though comparatively few cases
of it are reported in other states.
DR.. Peters, of the Nebraska expert
ment station, experimental with cattle
in order to learn the exact nature of
the disease and his conclusions were
that remedy may be found in feeding
a grain ration instead of feeding stalks
exclusively.
This conclusion has been negatived
by the experience of John N. Garth, Of
Webster City, a., as related in local
paper.
Mr.. Garth has been feeding his cat
tie shock corn. They have had access
to water and salt all the time. They
were turned into stalk field one hour
the first day; two hours the second day.
and the third day five of them died.
This case sets at naught the smut the
DRY, the impacted stomach theory and
negatives the conclusions of DR.. Peters.
The government has been Investigate
ing the disease for four or five years,
but no definite remedy has been discov-
cred. If the disease is not increasing, it,
is attracting more general attention
than ever, and farmers soon will become
afraid to turn their cattle into stalk
fields where mysterious death turks.
The consensus Of opinion is that corn
stalks preserved in silo never serve
to introduce the disease. # this is
proved to be a fact we may look for q
large increase in the number Of silos
in the corn belt in the near future. This
would add to the value Of the corn crop
md improve its feeding qualities.

Great movements of people from one

brought about by the very natural and
laudable desire Of mankind to better his
condition.
When the news that gold in large guam
titles had been found in the interior of
Alaska was flashed over the wires, men from
all over the world were ready to risk their
lives and brave all kinds of danger to reach
the new Eldorado. A few will succeed, the
balance will fail, while the average would
have done better to have joined the big i'm
migration movement into the St. Paul and
Duluth Country in Minnesota. Over One
Million Dollars was paid for the potato
crop alone at half dozen towns along the
road, to say nothing of money realized for
grain, cattle and other farm products. It is
the coming country in the Northwest on
account of it's superb location between St.
Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth and Superior.
It is blessed with a healthful climate, pure
water, good soil, enterprising citizens and
all the benefits of great country.
Land is increasing rapidly in value and
every man who settles there may be assured
that he will have small Klondike of his
own without the discomfort and danger at
tending a trip to far away Alaska.
