CANINE INSTINCT.

0 Fargo Call; The homing instinct
of animals has been the theme of
many pretty anecdotes, and it is not
confined to animals alone. Men have
this honing instinct, especially when
they are ahead in game OF draw,
and boys show evidence of it when In
trouble 5s sSs5 Az 5s
Monday night the snow was blowing
in ftful gusts around the corners Of
buildings and down alleys, and it was
a most disagreeable night to be out.
1t was almost midnight when the po-
liceman at the station heard a dog
scratch on the front door and emit
plaintive whines in a doggish endeavor
to attract attention. The dog was adj
mitted and it's delight was unbounded
as he leaped up to greet his old
friends. The dog was a handsome
Irish setter which Chief Bowers had
presented to William Clemens OF Leon
ard over year and a half ago. Some
days ago Clemens committed suicide by
shooting. The dog evidently under
stood that its master was dead, and
after days OF waiting concluded to re-
turn to its former master.

MAY BE A TIE.

Fargo Call: Hon. NJ P. Rasmussen
came in from Valley City on business
and to the Forum he says the report
of the county commissioners shows a
tie between him and Ramsett for the
legislature. In precinct No. 12-
Mime Lake-the returns footed up 10
for Ramsett, but the votes entered,
counted only "a, the county canvass
ing board sent for the ballot box
contrary to lawand counted the bal
lots. Mr. Rasmussen does not think
the board intended to do wrong, or be
unjust either to him or to his oppon-
ent-but made the mistake because
they did not know the law.
Saturday Mr. Rasmussen will call
the attention Of the board to the mis-
take which, if corrected win make
a tie vote and in such case the law re-
quires a new election on ten days
notice. ss *.

CAR REPAIRER MEETS WITH A
PAINFUL ACCIDENT AT FARGO.
Fargo, Nov. Michael Corrigan,
aged nearly 60 years, who has been a
car repairer in the employ of the
Northern Pacific for the past q years,
had his right leg crushed at 3'o'clock
this morning. 3s N F, +. .>..:5
Corrigan and two other men were
engaged in making repairs on a box
car located in the yards about half
way between the passenger station
and the freight office. Engineer len
nings was called for a freight run
about 8 o' clock and ran his engine
down from the round house and into
the car. It is claimed that the men
had neglected to put out danger
light and the engineer knew nothing
of the men being at work there. Mr.,
,,Corrig igan was under the car at the
time OF the collision and his right leg
was run over, about half way between
the knee and ankle Before the en-
gine was stopped the car had been

man was on the break beam at the
time and he escaped without injury,
crawling out after the car had been
STOPPED. . 5.5 b.
DR.. Wheeler was, called and made
the injured man as easily as possible
and he was taken to the Brainerd hos
pital on the morning train by his son.
There is no chance of saving the limb
and it will probably be amputated just
below the knee. Z. 5ys, %.:.s .s... s. "

FLOATING FIELDS.
Besides Their Beauty; They Are sf
r. Practical Use II. China.

I%y x-EStShtcxaA Use At NAtHA.
1t was DIR. MacGowan who some
| years ago described the manner in
which floating fields and gardens are
formed in China. In the month of
April bamboo raft 10 to IL feet long
and about half as broad is prepared.
The poles are Iashed together, with
fnterstices OF an inch between each.
Over this a layer of straw an inch
thick is spread, and then coating two
inches thick of adhesive mud is taken
from the bottom of canal or pond
which receives the seed The raft is
moored to the bank II still water and
requires no further attention. The
straw soon gives way and the soil
also. the roots drawing support from
the water alone. In about 20 days the
raft becomes covered with the creeper,
and its stems and roots are gathered
for cooking. In autumn it's small
white petals and yellow stamens.
nesting among the round leaves, pre-
sept a very pretty appearance. In
seme places marshy land is profitably
cultivated fn this manner.
Besides these floating vegetable gar
dens there are also floating ricefelds
Upon rafts constructed as above reeds
and adherent mud are placed as a
flooring soil, which, being adhesive and
held in place by weed roots, the plants
are maintained in position throughout
the season. The rice thus planted
ripens in from 60 to 10 in place OF
100 days. The RATS are cabled to the
shore. floating on lakes. pools or slug
gish streams. These floating fields
serve to avert famines. whether By
drought Or flood. Whei other fields
We're submerged and their crops sod
den or rotten, these foased and -four
ished. and when a drought prevailed
they subsided with the falling water
and, while the soil around was arid,
advanced to maturity Agricultural
treatises contain plates representing
rows of extensive ricefeids moored to
sturdy trees on the banks Of rivers or
lakes which existed formerly in the
lacustrine regions OF the lower Yang-tse
and Yellow rivers. Brooklyn Eagle.

with the natural result that they are

WEAVING islgsy j
How to Bridge Over the Critic
riod In swine Life.

= =
xiod In swine Life.
The critical period in a pigs i Il &. =:
when it ~ deprived of the mothers,
milk. says Theodore Louis IN Farm.
StocS and Home, and how to furnish
a Substitute for it is d problem often
difficult to solve. Itis reasonable to
say that the 5grewth Of pigs while nurs-
Ing as,yigorous, healthy, well fed SOW
and the uniform development Of flesh,
muscle and bone can scarcely be main
tanned when natures food is with
drawn. But every observing feeder
knows that pigs receive their milk
warm and often and that their di-.
gestive powers are never oyerta xed,
and it is failure to observe this that
often makes the weaving period an
"unlucky" one.
1t is good economy to feed the sow
freely during the nursing period, even
\ IL it does seem Wasteful to feed so
much for the little milk she gives. But
it must be remembered that it is the
whole litter that is being fed. and when
they are A or 5 weeks old they need
a deal Of, it. But the feed must be of
quality and quantity that will not
cause arrangement Of the bowels of
the little ones. Such things are better
prevented than cured. Feed three
times day at regular hours and just
enough, having none left in the trough
and yet have the appetite satisfied.
This requires observation, but it is nee
essary to success. Where Tom feeds
today, Dick tomorrow and Harry the
next day, neither knowing nor caring
about quantity, pig feeding is lottery,
and blanks are often drawn. sstsssg
Most every farm has a surplus Of
| milk. and too often it is thought that
| this alone will substitute soW's milk,
and it would to some degree if fed
sweet, but this is next to impossible.
If milk is dumped into some old sWill
barrel that is never scalded out and
the receptacle of kitchen offal, vinegar,
soapsuds, decayed vegetables and 9th
er things too numerous to mention, It
/ is dangerous substitute for mothers
milk. While pigs may become accus-
toned to sour milk, there is a wide
range in its acidity, and the extreme
sourness should be avoided. .:.. .aI,*
| IS Nor should milk in any form be fed
to youngsters in undue proportions
Shorts and cornmeal In equal parts
should be mixed with it into a thick
slopa or the corn may be shelled and
soaked and fed by being scattered on 9
clean. floor. fs5 s S;. g ss.s -;s5gs

hand less grain is required, but nc
greater mistake can be made than te
stint pigs by depending entirely on
pasture. for the first hundred pounds
Of growth costs the least. Ever bear
in mind that when the pig Is not add

no Not Feed Together.

We never favored the idea of keep
ing hogs and cattle together at fatten-
ing time, for it makes the feed lots SO
filthy in damp weather to have the
hogs roofing and wallowing, says Cy-
rus Greene in The Prairie Farmer The
cattle sheds and sleeping places can be
kept so much drier and cleaner If the
hogs are shut out, which adds to thu
comfort Of the cattle, and comfort
means thrift, and thrift means more
profit to the owner. Where there are
no hogs to root over and waste the
manure there will be more Of it at
hauling time. For the sanitary condi
tion of the swine we would strongly
urge keeping them away from the cat
tie. When cattle are on full feed OF
corn, their bowels are in a feverish and
ioosened condition much Of the time.
their blood is thick and at q high tenn
perature. many Impurities being taken
away from the body by the blood and
discharged with the excrements, and l
never could call that good hog feed. I
like pork and sausage, but do not care
for them from hogs raised on that kind
of feed When cattle and hogs run
together, there are always a few hogs
crippled. and occasionally one is killed.
This loss is avoided when they are
yarded alone. You are probably won.
dering BY this time what you will de
with the waste from your cattle, fol
many think that the waste from the
cattle represents the profit. We adj
wise you to take four-sevenths Of the
amount Of grain fed when the cattle
and hogs were running together and
grind 1t fine for the cattle. The re-
naming three-seyenths should be fed
to the hogs. grinding part of It for
them for q change. When it Is not
freezing weather, the corn should be
soaked from one feed to the next.
Empty all dishes and use fresh water
each time. II the dishes sour. put a
little salt in the bottom to keep them
sweet, as sour hog feed b not health
sful. All this may look like ..tony''
farming Well. ii is. and the pride and
so aheadatfveness of the American
people cause them to be on the con.
stant lookout for more modern and
profitable wars of doing things. i have
been managing my cattle and hogs in
the above way for several years and
am suited with IT and think if Others
would try it one season they would not
