The Maine
CZ2LD-2UOnluN


The Studium Club of Mattawamkeag.
has met with a large degree of sue
cess during the four years since it was
organized. At the time of organiza-
tion, the membership was limited to %.
The club now has a membership of 20.
The first year ancient history was
taken up, English history followed and
the third year was devoted to French
history. At present the members are
studying Lowell. The Stadium Club
Is member Of the Maine Federation
and is in other respects strictly a
progressive society of women who are
bound to know more tomorrow than
today. 1t has been the policy of the
club to keep the community interested
in its work and to do this an open
night" has been held when the mem
bers invited friends to an entertain
ment connected in some way with
their work for the past year.
The meeting of the General Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs that had been
arranged in connection with the Wom-
ems Congress of the Paris Exposition
has been given up. The meeting was
first set for the early days in Septem-
Der. after the committee had consulted
with Nine. PICARD. Nine. Bogelot and
others at the head of the women's de-
partment of the Paris Exposition. The
committee sent out circulars broadcast
to over twenty-five hundred clubs, urg-
ing their cooperation in every way.
Last month Nine. PICARD notified the
committee over here that it would be
necessary to change the date to the
very last days of June, and after due
consultation this was decided upon and
new set of circulars was issued to all
the clubs. A steamer was engaged to
sail June 49, which would make things
pretty lively for club-WOmen who in
tended to attend both the Biennial at
Milwaukee, June 4 to 9, and the Paris
meeting. But there came another let
ter from Nine. PICARD. saying it would
be necessary to change the date again,
and to have Federation Day of the
congress on June IS This rendered it
impossible for any one to attend both
the Biennial and the Paris meeting,
and the latter was given up. The
French women had planned the most
cordial hospitality-even to sending a
delegation to HaVre to meet the Amer
lean club-women and escort them to
Paris.

Horses. Coat..

Nature provides the horse with q fine
and comparatively short coat for sum-
mel wear and a coarser and longer one
for winter use. says tie London Live
Stock Journal. The animal sheds the
former covering during the autumn
and the latter during the spring. The
hairs Of the forelock, name and tail
and the long hairs about the muzzle
and eyes are not shed. Good grooming
and the use of warm clothing greatly
tend to reduce the difference between
the summer Goa and the winter coat.
II while the coat is being changed Id
the spring the brush or other means be
employed to hasten the process, the
roots Of the hair will become prema,

In a herd OF sows there is often one

ers. In q a s OF this kind nature does
notlianit the number OF pigs to suit the
supply Of milk. She is as apt to pro-
duce as numerous q litter as the best
mixer in fhe:herd. The. result is that
these little fellows are always hungry
and spend much Of the time pulling at
their mother. II the SOW Is in a house
with several others with filters, these
hungry, restless fellows will cause
much unrest with the others. We have
often noticed that when one litter Of
pigs begins to trail after their dam
for their feed the litters OF the herd
are almost sure to take up the cry and
in q short time all the sows are down
and the pigs sucking. When the sows
and their filters are separated until
the pigs are at least ! month old, 1t Is
much easier to feed each SOW properly
and get the pigs to eating. And, more
than this, It is conducive to better
thrift and health.
For single houses to be used In this
way we should want them portable or
of material that could be torn to
pieces and removed when not in use.
The latter is the least expensive and
within the reach Of every farmer able
to own two or more brood sows.

Hogs Need Exerct.e.

Breeding hogs need a little exercise
every day to keep them in the very best
condition, says The American Guilt
vator, but how are they to get it in
this climate, when the yards and all
spots out of doors are covered with
snow for three months at q time? II
even a wheelbarroW load a day Of good
fresh horse manure is thrown in a yard
for any three that are yarded together,
they will spend much time il roofing
it over, especially II they find a grain
Of corn or a few oats In 1t often enough
to keep them interested. We do not
want fattening hogs to have anything
to induce them to root, nor would we
allow the breeding stock 10 sleep on
the manure heap, which is one Of the
reasons why we do not advise keeping
hogs In a barn cellar. Another is that
we do not like a manure cellar under
the barn. The barn cellar, II there is
one, may do to store roots In and to put
away carts, plows and other heavy
tools IL 1t Is dry enough. but then we
would like a good cement floor for It.
Another reason Is that we want the
animals to have sunlight when they
can, and II the hogs are In a separate
building with an open yard they viii
be ont a great dealswhen the weather
is pleasant. even In winter. II Ii is cold.
We want TO keep the SOW gaining a
little every day from the time she Is
bred until she farrows and yet to guard
against her being too fat This can
easily be regulated by the food given.
IL a little care Ii taken.
