NOTES FOR STOCKMEN.

When the hogs are fat ship to mar
ket or get them into the pork barrel.
The smooth side of a six-wire fence
makes very poor shelter for colt
or calf that should be growing this
winter.
If so fortunate as to have a 'wean-
ing colt or so see that some wheat
bran or good, clean oats form a part
of the winter ration.
A colt need not have the range of
the whole farm in order. to have ex-
ercise this winter-a paddock near
the barn will supply the room.
Sheep can stand a good degree of
cold if their wool is dry. Give them a
good roof over their heads and free
dom from drafts and they will make
themselves comfortable and be
healthy. -, r
Any hay that is bleached by storm
OF long exposure to the weather, if
not moldy or rotten, may be fed out
now-but do not starve any animal to
eat it; feed little at time and give
grain to tone. up its quality. >,
Clover hay, pumpkins, mangles or
other bulky food will keep the hogs
thrifty and growing through the win
ter. IF you have supply of each it
may be well to feed the pumpkins
first, then the beets and the clover
last or nearest spring. s:.

Amateurs Rule the Market.

There is a vast difference between
the man that makes a speciality of
poultry raising and the man that
raises few hens for family use only
as to the methods that each must en-
ploy. 1t may fairly be said that the
divergence is at the beginning. The
specialist must first study his mar
ket. The market of the amateur is so
near that he does not need to study
it, as he is not afraid of rivals. The
specialist must be an accountant, but
the other cares little whether he
makes or loses he wants the prod
ucts fresh. For this reason the anna
teur may succeed where the specialist
would be sure to fail. But for all of
that the amateur poultry raiser is the
greatest factor in the poultry world,
both because he is the most numerous
and because he is the most independ-
ent.-Farmers' Review.

WRONG AND RIGHT WAY.

and soaks into the manure dig a little
trench to carry it away.
Build siAo or pen for the manure,
as shown in the illustration. Make it
seven or eight feet wide and about
four feet longer at each end than the
windows from which the manure is
thrown. If stock occupy the full
length of the barn the pen will be
as long as the barn. The earth
should be dug out about two feet
deep inside the pen. The deeper the
pile the better it is, but the bottom
cannot be much more than two feet
below ground because of the difficulty
of loading manure on the wagon.
Make the sides of the pen of boards
or small poles and strengthen by
using plenty of upright posts. The
better plan is to put the side boards
inside the posts, as the manure set
ties more compactly.
After the pen is built cover the
surface with one or two feet of muck,
loan or sods and turn in one or two
hogs to tramp it down. The impor-
tant thing is to keep the manure
spread evenly over the surface. The
pigs may do this, but if not it will be
necessary once or twice a week to
spread the manure that piles under
the windows.
The pen should be filled as full as
possible before carting it out, but it
cannot be filled above the window
sill without a good deal of work.
When full there is solid block of
manure about five or six feet deep,
seven or eight feet wide and as long
as the pen. The little rain that has
fallen upon it has hardly more than
wet it down in good shape, but when
very heavy rains fall add enough lit
ter or loan to absorb the water.
Never let the water run off the top
of the pile, but add sufficient absorb
ents to keep the pile reasonably dry.
In fact, absorbents must be added
from time to time to take up the
natural moisture if it is largely cow
manure. When thus treated there is
practically no loss from rains and the
sun and wind have not appreciably
hurt it, because of the small surface
exposed. The entire pile becomes
good, solid manure and the loan that
was originally placed at the bottom
is just as good as the rest.
When carting out manure take out
the pigs and take down the side
boards so as to avoid throwing the
manure over the high fence. With the
above arrangement the manure is in
excellent shape-so good, in fact, that
I very much doubt if roof would
be any material benefit. The larger
the quantity of manure made daily
and the smaller the size OF the pen
in length and width the better will
be the manure. I have used this ar
rangement number of years and am
much pleased with it.-Orange Judd

This was another tragedy of the kind

a particularly wealthy man, but his
notoriety as the ''czar of plungers" has
never been equaled on the board. He
made and lost numerous fortunes. The
excitement during the deal of 'ss was
intense, and Mr.. Hutchinson succeeded
in cornering the Chicago market; but
whether or not his profits amounted to
much when it came to the actual dis
posal of the cash wheat is a mooted
question.
During the progress of this deal the
pit was in delirium. Time and again
Mr.: Hutchinson sendeavored to stay the
advance: in prices, but his selling had
no effect. With succession of bounds

When there is no barn cellar the

manure that is removed from the

the barn, under the caves. The one
operation of shoveling it out win

practiced the water from the roof
drenches and washes out the soluble
parts of the manure Gig. y, while
the edges and outside of the pile are

most of the fertility is lost. But these

Concerning Farm Manures.

While the. fertility is kept in large
measure upon the farm, and degree
of security is experienced thereby, it
Is interesting to calculate what percent
age of this fertility actually gets back
to cultivated fields upon the farms of
q neigh hborhood- and in many cases the
owner Of a. farm would be alarmed if
he knew and realized how slender a
reed he leans upon when he refers to
his practice Of keeping the strength Of
his soil on the farm. Some calculation
would show to many that not one-fourth
sofs this plant-food is returned to ground
that produces their plowed crops. It
IS business TO figure on. this. and to stop,

When the Bulls or Bears
Were Squeezed by Corners

cash price for great quantities of his
wheat. He turned to his questioner,
smiled and said:
II have not honored one of these"
He was confident that the price
would advance even higher than it had
already gone ($1.s5); but his confidence
was misplaced, and the sequel proved
that this bullish attitude was the cause
Of his undoing. Thus ended disastrous
ly one of the greatest wheat deals
known on change. E
''It has been my experience" said
the man who had been 81 years on the
board, "that the speculator who is un-
willing to sell to the actual consumer
at fair price never runs his corner
with ultimate success. Instead of be-
ing assisted by his purchasers in the
boost of prices, he finds himself at war
with the world. When this is the case,
defeat is certain. An attempt to run a
corner beyond its natural limits usual
ly results most fatally"
In illustration of corners that have
been run because there was no other
way out of the difficulty, owing to the
sudden decline in prices, may be men
toned Mr.. P. D. Armour's very sue
cessful corner in pork in 1879.
Mr.. Armour had purchased large
quantities of pork at $14 barrel and
prices declined almost to 50. OF course
he kept buying to save the market, and
his holdings in barrels touched the
100000 mark. At no time were there
over 100000 barrels of contract pork
in Chicago, and the price rose to $1s
and $40 barrel. This must be regard
ed as purely natural corner and a
most successful one. This is proved by
the fact that he was later able to dis:
pose of his pork to the actual consumer
at great profit.
But speaking of pork products, the
great McGeough lard corner of 1883
will be remembered by hundreds who
lost their fortunes in the deal. The
price of lard was forced up to 13 cents
pound; but such quantities were
made that the corner utterly collapsed.
