Taylor Defes the Court.

Gov. Taylor this afternoon refused to
acknowledge tho existence or permit the
service OF a writ OF habeas corpus issued
by Judge Moore, Of the county court. He
thus taeltly suspends the writ of habeas
corpus in the courts of Franklin county,
something under the constitution of the
state of Kentucky which canot be done
legally except in cases OF rebellion or in
vasion.

win Try to Prevent "a Conflict.

The Democratic leaders do not entirely
indorse the attitude OF Judge Moore. and
while they assert that his stand is right
and just they do not consider II at the
present time advisable. II Is possible that
before the time set by Judge Moore for
the service OF the writ he may be in
duced TO alter his attitude. Unless he
does this. or Gov. Taylor acknowledges
the service of the writ and recognizes the
existence of the state courts, an armed
conflict In the streets Of the capital of
Kentucky is certain.

SKIM MILK FOR HOGS.
III Makes the Ordinary Grain Feeds
More DiEsstib1e and Is Coed
Flesh Producer.

Skim milk should always be used
when it is available. 1t 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 Se
meat, when mixed with grain in the
proportion of pounds or less of milk
to each pound of grain its value is
greatly increased. In a test reported
by G. p. Goodrich l bushel of corn
produced 10 pounds of pork. and 100
pounds OF skim milk produced 5
pounds of pork, when fed separately.
When fed together, however, the mix
ture produced IS 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 25 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-
CURED to make 100 pounds of gain
was 70 days for the hogs fed on milk
and grain. 116 days for those fed On
grain alone, and lat days when the
feed was milk alone. The milk-and-
granted lots required 2.5S pounds Of
digestible matter, the milk-fed lots
2.s5 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 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'

How Hogs Get Diseases.

Much has been written in regard te
corn feeding predisposing the hog to
disease, and it was thought dairy dis
tricts were not so liable to disease;
but that fallacy has been exploded, and
it is now quite evident that the germs
of swine disease, like typhoid fever or
other human diseases, is largely due
to the accumulation OF filth in water, OF
by accommodations of dust by wind.
We consider dustbed very harmful
to pigs, and they should not be al
lowed to lie under buildings, where
they soon accumulate a bed OF dust
