HEAVY CORN FEEDING.
Turnips, Pumpkins and Damp MIL
Feed should lie Given I'm Coz
ncction with Ii.

There is no economy in stinting the
ration given to growing and fattening
pigs. The aim should always be to in
duce as heavy feeding as possible. AL
ways much care should be given to Sc
cure perfect digestion, us heavy feed
ing sometimes causes trouble with the
digestive organs. After green corn
commences there is always desire to
hurry the pigs to market, and corn is
fed to the utmost limit.
1t must be remembered that the mod
ern, quickly-developed pig is soft
creature as compared with his ances-
tors of GO years ago, that the four to
six months old pig will not corn and di-
gest it like the yearling or 1s-months-
old hogs of the past. Something must
be done to keep up the appetite of this
young thing.
range over a grass sward will give
over they will get much to keep their
systems in tone.
Heavy feeding by some may be
thought to consist in having corn al
ways by them. This is not correct, as
they will consume more if fed at stated
intervals and only fed enough to keep
their appetites sharp. When once start
ed to fatten the feeding should be
heavy to the finish, as a limited feed
ing is always attended with loss.
1t will be found an advantage to give
variety in feeding. While corn is the
main ration, a good grass ration is a
help-or an occasional feed of pump
kins. Turnips they learn to eat in time
as other succulent foods fail them.
Mangels they take to at once, and while
they may not add much weight they
help the appetite. A ration of mill feed
is always acceptable if fed damp and in
proper quantity.
We do not regard these things as
cutoff on the amount of corn fed, but
rather as an aid to heavy corn feeding,
and also an aid in prolonging the time
corn may be fed without the hogs stall
ing on it and getting entirely oil feed.

THE RATTLEBOX WEED.
It's Poisonous Constituent Is I'm
known, Hut Resides Both I'm Its
Leaves and Seed.

The Latin name of this weed is
Crotalara sagittalis. 1t is popularity
known as rattleweed and wild pea. A
of it: IL is hairy annual three to
eighteen inches high, with simple un-
divided leaves one to two inches long
and small yellow pea-like flowers APP
pearing in July. The seed pods are
about an inch long when mature and
are nearly black. They are much in
fated, and, as the walls are stiff and
thin and very resonant, they make ex-
cellent miniature rattles when the
seeds have become detached from their
fastenings inside the pod. The rattle

FOND OF AUTOMOBILES.
The French Have Numbers In Use
COntrasted with Those of
Other Countries.

II would appear from data now in our
possession that in Europe there are at
present well over 1000 owners of auto
mobiles. Many of these own more than
one vehicle, so that perhaps the num-
Der of vehicles could be put at 10000.
OF the 1000 no fewer than 5000 are in
France. The general idea has been that
in France the interest was conferred in
Paris, but this is erroneous, there be-
ing of the 5000 no fewer than 4,541
scattered all through the departments.
For the remainder of Europe the fig
ures are far from complete, but it would
appear that there are 26S owners OF
automobiles in Germany, 90 in Austro-
Hungary, 90 in Belgium. "A in Spain,
304 in Great Britain, III in Italy. 6S in
Holland, ia in Switzerland and IS in
Russia, Denmark, Portugal, etc.
AS to the investment, If the 10000
automobiles in Europe be averaged at
$1,000 apiece they have cost the pur-
chasers $10,0OO,0O0. In this country at
the present time the like investment
averaging the automobiles Mt $1,000
apiece would only be $1,250,000, but the
orders and contracts now in hand rep
resent perhaps ten times that amount,
while the companies with nominal
paper capital of about $40o,0oo,Ooo have
announced their intention of building
automobiles. The American output the
coming year ought to be worth S1o,-
100000, and it will be largely electrical
ut that.-Electrica World and Engi-

From Potatoes to I'VE.

The land that was devoted to potatoes
this year should be seeded to rye, lined
in the spring and corn grown on the
came land next year. Such plan gives
the land two weddings and cleans ii
thoroughly. 1t is also an advantage not
to grow potatoes on the same land
oftener than one year in four as pre-
caution against disease. Rye should
cover all land that Is plowed in the
fall, as it prevents loss of fertility, and
when turned under in spring II will add
fertilizing material 20 the soil, the lime
being used to neutralize any acidity
that may exist.

TROUGH FOR FEEDING PIGS.

lengthwise of the trough and dividing it
into two parts, they are also prevented
from getting into it and fouling their
food. Strips four inches wide are nailed
to the edges of the trough at requisite
distances, separating the trough into
proper space for each pig, and thus pre-
vents crowding. In order to avoid fight
always be more spaces provided than
there are pigs to feed.-Fred o. Sibley,

Poten,nte, who stay Mt Home.

There are but two European poten-
tates who manage to get along without
change of residence or outings OF any
description. These are the pope OF
Rome and the sultan of Turkey. The
sultan has never left Constantinople
sincehe assembled the throne under such
tragic circumstances, 90 years ago. And
his holiness has remained within the
precincts Of the vatican since the triple
tiara was placed upon his head in 1878.

so they had; five of them. Luckily, the

had AZ mice, in six weeks 100. We gave
