SKIM MILK FOR HOGS.
1t Makes the Ordinary Grain feeds
More Digsstible md Is n Good
Flesh Producer.

T, Skim milk should always be used
when it is available. It is not only
a good flesh producer in itself, but it
also makes the ordinary grain feeds
more digestible and so adds greatly to
their value. While. skim milk alone is
rarely profitable, from 20 to 40 pounds
being required to, make a pound Of
meat, when mixed with grain in the
proportion of pounds or less Of milk
to each pound of grain it's value is
greatly increased. In test reported
by C. P. Goodrich / bushel of corn
produced 10 pounds of pork, and 100
pounds of skim milk produced S
pounds of pork, when fed separately.
When fed together, however, the mix
ture produced 1s pounds of meat, an
increase of pounds due to the mix
ing. In this case 100 pounds of skim
milk took the place of AIS pounds Of
corn. If the corn was worth rs cents
per bushel, the milk was worth 1916
cents per 100 pounds; if the corn was
worth 40 cents, the milk was worth
31.4 cents. Extended tests in the feed
ing of skim milk have been made at
the Utah station, and among the
facts brought out by the work are
these: "The hogs fed on the milk-and-
grain ration made much more rapid
gains than either those fed on milk
alone or on grain alone. The time re-
quired to make 100 pounds of gain
was 10 days for the hogs fed on milk
and grain, ZIG days for those fed Gu
grain alone, and 147 days when the
feed was milk alone. The milk-and-
granted lots required S.5S pounds of
digestible matter, the milk-fed lots
2S5 pounds, and the granted lots
$40 pounds to make 1 pound of gain
in live weight" In this case 100
pounds of skim milk took the place
of 1872 pounds of grain in the mix
ture. Work at other stations has
given very similar results and has
demonstrated that when not more
than 4 pounds of skim milk is used
with each pound of grain the milk
is worth from Is to 80 cents per 100
pounds. The younger and smaller
the hogs the higher is the value of
the milk. For fullgrown and aged an
imals it is of less value. 1t may be
taken as safe rule that it is profit
able to pay at least Is cents per 100
pounds for all the skim milk needed
to make four times the weight of the
grain fed, and where it is impossible
to secure enough for all the hogs the
available supply should be given to
those pigs nearest the weaving age
and to sows sucking pigs.-Farmers'

BUILD YOUR NEST LOW.
Advice to Girls from Mary Lowe
Dickinson, General Secretary
OF the Kings Daughters.

One who had been listener while a
bright girl announced most ambitious
aspirations and purposes for her own
life answered, gently: 'Ycu may be
right, dear child, but do not forget that
the singing birds build low.'''
If your fight is above the roof trees,
if your hearts are to be high up among
the wind-rocked boughs, the home nest
cannot fail to suffer loss. And apart
from the loss to those who remain, the
daughter who goes out often finds too
late that the low nest was safest and
best. There are colder winds on the
mountain crags, and it is the birds of
prey that build their nests on high.
After all our thinking and talking of
progress for man or woman, it is true
that nothing ever comes to us that is as
sweet as the life of home. Let women
seek largest culture, the broadest free
dom, the highest service. All goes well
while they keep the home love warm.
When that love wavers, it is time to
pause. We are building our nests in
the wrong place. Singing birds are to
make melody, first, for our nearest and
dearest, and when our best is too good
for the home we are placing our nests
too high.
For some of the sweetest of our
daughters and sisters there is creep
ing danger here. Not danger that they
shall be too brave, too strong, too
learned, or that their weapons shall be
too heavy Or too sharp-but danger
that, in the joy of welding them, they
forget that all their gifts and powers
must ultimately be used for homes, if
not for their own, for the homes of 9TH
ers. The true woman may build high,
but she cannot for very long dwell
above the home. In her hands is it's re-
generation and it's exaltation into the
noblest institution of God. She may
not herself hold therein the place of
wife, mother or daughter, but so long
as in her heart she holds home most
sacred and devotes her highest powers
to the objects that uplift all homes, her
nest is low, and her voice shall be to
the world as sweet as the song of the
birds-Mary Lowe Dickinson, in St..
Louis Globe-Democrat.

allowing the striking of a match &C.
casionauy to find some particular ar
ticle in hurry. The idea of hang
ing the bale of the lantern in the snap
of buckle is good, for then, no mat
ter how much the lantern is swayed
it cannot fall. TO avoid changing the
location of the lantern from hook to
hook, an excellent device is to run
an overhead wire along the space de-
sired to be lighted in one or two places
in the barn or stable. TO this wire
can be attached snap-buckle with a
ring, SO as to allow of its being slid
along from one end to the other, and
thus the lantern can be moved along at
will to any point under the wire.
Another point about the lantern in
the barn is to keep the chimney clean.
A lantern never gives too much light,
anyway, but a dirty, smoky chimney,
besmeared with greasy tinger-marks,
will shed just about half as much light
as clean glass.-Guy E. Mitchell, in
Farm and Fireside.

THE BOY.

When you hear fearful racket, -
Like miniature cyclone,
With some sounds so strange that surely
Their like was never known;
While the mother listens calmly,
Even with a smiling face,
You may know that it is nothing
But the boy about the place.
When there's famine in the cupboard,
And the milk pail soon runs dry,
ana You cant keep pies or cookies,
No matter how you try;
And you vainly seek for apples
That have gone and left no trace,
Hard times is not the trouble
Theresa boy about the place.
When there's sawdust on the carpet,
And some shavings on the beds,
When the rugs are tossed in corners,
And your chairs stand on their heads:
While If tool you're needing, you
All round the house must race,
You may know he's making something
Is the boy about the place.
When the house Is full of sunshine
On the darkest kind of day,
And you have to laugh at seeing
Some outlandish, boyish play;
AND when eyes so bright and loving
Oft are raised to meet your face,
You Will pray, know: God bless him,
Eless our boy about the place."

WOMEN IN BUSINESS.
A Number of Respects in Which EN-
ployers Find Them Less En-
cient Than Men.

II have recently been interested in
ascertaining the definite reasons why
employers have felt that the positions
in their establishments were not most
effectively filled by women" writes Ed
ward Box of '"The Return of the Bust
ness Woman" in the Ladies' Home
journal. "The reasons are as varied as
they are interesting. The lack of phys
ical endurance and the unreliability
caused by physical considerations were
the main causes. The lack of executive
ability was given as the main reason in
positions of trust, and the friction
caused by the objection of women
subordinates to receive orders from
one of their own sex. Pending or i'm
pending matrimonial engagements
were also very pronounced cause.
The proprieties also came in for their
share, the merchant not feeling that
he could ask his female secretary or
clerk to remain after business hours.
The trader felt that he could not send
a woman off on a mission which re-
quired hasty packing and prepara-
ton for travel at an hours notice. In
a number of cases women seemed to OBJ
iect, and were inclined to accuse their
employers of forgetting the social
amenities when they spoke sharply to
them. In these cases women always
seemed to remember: that they were
women, and made their employers re-
member it, too. Illness in the family,
which would not necessitate a mans
absence at the office, keeping the WON
an at home, was another reason. And
so went on the reasons which made en-
ployers decide that they preferred men
to women in their offices. And as
carefully went over the reasons, each
pointed to simply one thing: the un.
naturol position of woman in bust.

SOUTH AFRICAN WOMAN.
Feminine Pulchritude Among the
Zulus and Ka1nrs Is Judged by
AvOirdupois.

The Kaffir women of South Africa
are as noted for their efforts to be
beautiful as are their white sisters of
other and more civilized lands. They
pay great attention to identifying
their bodies. They are great athletes
and their life in the open air makes
them physically strong and well
formed. They are particular about
the condition of their skin, and daily
battle and anoint the entire body,
massaging it until it shines like eb-
ony. They are plump and we'll round
ed, and usually of handsome bronze
color.
The style of dressing the hair is
next in Importance. Their kinky
locks are filled with clay ointment,
by means of which they retain any
position desired without the use of
pins or other fastenings.
The single women stretch their hair
into peak at the top of the back of
the head, where it remains for weeks
in a solid mound The married wom-
en- twist the front hair into fringe
of tiny curls by mixing the hair with
clay and then twisting it between the
fingers. These twists hang thickly
down over the forehead, and really
deserve the name of fringe, looking
very much like the fringe of the Rus
sian poodle. The back hair they dress
in variety of ways, using clay al
ways to straighten out the kinks and
keep them straight.
Young women wear only beads and
beaded ornaments, but these are
quite profuse. The only semblances
of garments are short beaded apron
and chest protector. The gauge of
beauty is plumpness. The plumper
the girl the more beautiful she is con-
