A man may like to speak of his
hrst bullet, but the more of active
service he has seen the less incliaed
he is to talk about his share in it.
An officer who wore the Victoria
Cross, and who had distinguished him.
self at the battle of the Alma, where
he had two horses killed under him,
was once entreated by Chaplain Har-
dy, OF the British army, to tell some-
thing as to his feelings and expert
ences in an engagement. All the
chaplain could get from him was:

to be in. Come, and III show yov

gave another call, which seemed Ia
come from the corner of the pen. In
rushed the old bear. Hiram pulled a
string, and down fell the door OF the
pen. Hiram climbed down from the
tree as pleased and happy as if he had
done something to be proud of.
"sIt's only rescuing that old bear
from the wild woods and hills he said,
sort of exultant like, 'and giving her
the benefits of civilization. WheA the
circus agent carts her off he will show
her what life in great cities is like.
Blamed if / don't feel as if l was the
original white mans burden bearer
And he swelled out his chest, like q
man who has done all kinds of chari-
table deed.
"Hiram sold the bear TO the circus
agent for more money than he could
have earned in three months. The next
day he initiated the cry of a wildcat
kitten in distressful circumstances,
with the result that in less than an
hour he had a small, but indignant, fe-
male wildcat in the pen. Hiram was
the happiest man in Pike county, and
began planning what he would do with
all the money he saw coming.
"'You've made good bundle now,'
l told him, and it's time to cash in and
get out of the game. Animals with
the intelligence of Pike county bears
and wildcats won't be made the victims
of perennial goldbrick game. And I've
noticed both bears and wildcats prowl-
ing around, as if they suspected that
pen of yours wasn't entirely charita-
BILE institution
"But Hiram declared he wouldn't
stop while he was fairly coming money.
The next day he started after bear.
Sure enough, as soon as he gave the
bear cub cry, down from the hills came
a big bear. But instead of going into
the pen, the bear kept nosing about as
if she suspected something was wrong.
About minute later she spied Hiram.
You could fairly hear her brains work.
ing, she was thinking so hard. Being
an old and experienced bear, it didn't
take her long to figure cat that the
bear cub cry had come from Hiram.
Talk about an angry bear. She start
ed up the tree with the air of bear
who was determined to give at least one
person a lesson on the evil of trifiiny
with the affections of respectable
mother bears. Hiram didn't wait for
explanations, but hunted for higher
limb. Pretty soon he found one which
would hold him, being light man,
but wasn't strong enough for an ex-
tra-sized angry bear. For a minute
Hiram seemed safe, though far from
happy. The bear was puzzled, but gave
every, indication of being willing to
wait for Hiram as long as he found
it convenient TO stay at the end of
that limb.

will still pay. Usually, the hog win
pay for every mouthful it eats. If it
does not get many mouthfuls it does
not have much to pay for, but gen.
orally it will make return for what
it does consume. The farmer who
makes money out of swine, however,
takes good care of them, and while
there is no one method of swine feed
ing that can be absolutely essential
to success, the farmer who has q
good breed, plenty of corn and plenty
of clover will make as great a success
as anybody will with any other meth
cd. In the sections that are especial
ly suitable for alfalfa growing, hogs
are cheaply raised and fatteped on
this excellent forage, being finished
off perhaps with little grain If it is
at command. This is an economical
method of preparing hogs for market.
but alfalfa will not grow everywhere.
and farmers must depend on corn and
clover over a large section OF the
country.
Most of our swine are bred too
young, with the result that we have
hogs of less constitutional vigor than
we would have if our breeding stock
was older. There is no objection to
breeding from young males. Indeed
that is to be recommended. But the
sow should be mature, and she should
be retained as breeder just as long
as she has good litters and mothers
them properly. AS a rule we shoUd
prefer rangy to blocky sow. Sows
of this character are generally the
best breeders and the best mothers.
April is good spring month for far
rowing. The weather is warmer then,
and the litter will not need SO much
attention as it would if it came in the
colder months. September is the best
fall month, as it is not so hot as Au-
gust and will give time enough for
the pigs to get a good start before
the cold weather comes on. Fall pigs,
however, do not always pay. They
may consume more than they pay for.
II is the pasture field in summer that
makes swine raising profitable. 1t is
the pig that grows between two win
ters that is profitable, for after it
leaves the dam, its keep costs next to
nothing, except as to what grain it
NAV consume 1t should be remem-
bered, too. that the hogs that are
marketed between the last of Septem-
Der and the first of April are not
taxed, for they are not in existence
when the assessor comes.
Neglect in giving proper care to the
SOW while she is carrying her pigs,
often results disastrously. All the
pigs may not be fully developed and
vigorous, and unless the sow gets
plenty of bone and muscle forming
food, and is permitted to become too
fat, she may eat her pigs. But while
she should not be too fat, she should
be kept in good flesh, for in that con-
dition she will furnish more and bet
ter milk. 1t is a mistake not to take
pains to have our sows gentle and
willing to be handled at narrowing
time and afterwards. The result of
sow's being so wild that she will not
submit to being handled, may be the
loss Of the litter, or at least part OF
it, and such sow is very unpleasant
after she has farrowed. When pigs
are old enough to eat, furnish them
an apartment in which they can eat
by themselves, and feed them a va
riety of feed.-Cor. Epitomist.

THE SITUATION AT PRETORIA.

Premier Schreiner and Mr.. Hofmeyel
Aecused-Gen. Joubert Suspected.
Durham, Monday, March 26.-Mr. Will
liam Cox, newspaper correspondent
who was released from Imprisonment at
Pretoria, has arrived here. FIe adds his
testimony to the stories of good treat
ment Of the prisoners by the Transvaal
authorities, though the subordinates
sometimes subjected the captives to an
noyances.
Mr.. Cox saw Secretary Reitz, and
says that he evidently is worried at the
turn of events. Prominent persons at
the Transvaal capital bitterly accuse
Mr.. Hofmeyer, the Afrikander leader,
and Premier Schreiner of deserving
them. They say that they expected a
hundred thousand Cape Colonists to
join the republics.
General Joubert is apparently suspect
ed of half-heartedness, and Mr.. Cox
gathered that his life will be in danger
at the hands of the irate burghers if
Pretoria is besieged. AT Delagoa Bay,
Mr.. Cox saw well-known secret-servce
agents purchasing and forwarding all
kinds of goods to the Transvaal.
