Raise Hogs ON the Farm.

Every farmer should be hog raiser
at least to the extent that hog prod
ucts can be consumed on the farm
If he can do so, and nearly every one
can, he should also raise some pigs
for market. If his farm is large
enough he should by all means
grow and fatten enough hogs
to fill car, and just as soon as
they are in marketable condition send
them to the packery. On small farms
it may not be convenient to raise many
more than is necessary for home use
But one or two, or a dozen, or twenty
as the case may be, put in frst-class
condition and sold to people in the town
or country, who will not or do moi
raise their own pork will prove profit
able.

Starting Early Potatoes.


The plan tested at the Rhode Island
stations of sprouting seed potatoes, In
trays so that they would be fairly
grown, or as large as they usually are
at the first hoeing, when they were set
in the field, seems to be so simple and
to have so increased the yield, as well
as given an earlier crop, that we cannot
refrain from mentioning it again, in the
hope that some Of our readers will try
it. They used trays 3A feet long and
IA feet wide, convenient size for one
man to handle, and holding about a
bushel each when they were spread
out. The sides of the trays were but
about an inch high, and the bottom was
Of laths placed an inch apart. Then
these were placed on a rack so as to
leave eight or nine inches between
them, and that placed SO as to give each
tray air and sunshine above and be-
low. in q room only moderately warm
Thus they had on each piece strong,
vigorous sprout three or four inches
high when ready to set them out and
they found that the increase in yield at
the time they were ready for digging
or when first fit to sell was ~ per cent
over those kept in cool cellar and
planted in the open ground, while when
fully mature the gain was 40 per cent
with more large potatoes.

answered, II have been getting en-
gagged"
Strathmore's jaw fell. That meant
that he would have to hunt up new
striker, of course. Then he remem-
bered Mamie Pearle That's rather a
coincidence, Chester; so have l."
Chester's congratulation was respect
fui, but not SO cordial as it might have
been. Il shall ask your permission and
the captains to marry, sir" he said.
Strathmore accorded his own. But
[ shall be sorry to lose you, Chester,
very sorry. What is the girls name r.
Chester grew red all over his nice,
boyish face. He was finding out that
saving another Is not all heroism, nee
essarily. He produced piece Of paper
from his pocket-a piece of fimsy,
ruled, pink paper stamped with a white
dove. Strathmore gave a little start.
But Chester was doing this because he
thought 1t best to deal the final blow
at once, not to mince matters in the
least, and he did not hesitate. He
smoothed out the sheet That's the
name, sir" he said.
Strathmore read it. It was Mamie
Pearle.
'"The last name" Chester explained,
lis Halloran. She's the daughter Of
Halloran of the ranch
"Oh!" said Strathmore, dryly. His
eye had caught a misspelled assurance
Of enduring love. "Ohv' he repeated;
''and may | ask if she knows who you
are?"
Chester grew more red still. "Well"
he reflected that an entirely honest
intent could never be prefxed by that
Yankee word-"well, sir, l began by
letting her think that my name was
Lovatt-part Of it really is, strand
that was titled and rich-which l am
not-but'' plucked up courage as
he went on-''if she loves me, of course
it will be all right"
Strathmore handed him back the
note. "And If she doesn't"
Tit will still be all right

he commented.
Chester nodded, but added, with the
faintest shadow on his face: "She's
married woman, sir"
''YesY said Strathmore, and turned
to leave the room.
'Oh, lieutenant" Chester called.
Strathmore stopped. II thought you
might like to know, sir, that I'm not
engaged any more"
For a full half-minute Strathmore
looked into the Englishman's impene-
trable blue eyes; then there came a
twinkle in his own. 1T seems to be
another coincidence, Chester he said,
quietly. "for neither am I."-Argonaut.

Poultry Notes.

Hens will not lay in cold houses.
Arrange for plenty of sunlight in the
winter. =
Do not place too much dependence in
one kind of grain.
Keep the late Matched turkeys until
February.
Comfortable quarters for winter will
be saving Of feed.
Old stock of any kind decrease in
value as they become older.
Those who raise fowls for market
must keep young stock.
Weight and condition come from the
surplus nutrition in the food.
If the chicks begin to droop, examine
their heads for the large lice.
To prevent egg eating make the
nests high and dark.
If the young fowls droop from too
rapid feathering, feed some meat
With fowls it is much better to keer
the appetite sharp, compelling them to
hunt for food.
While sour milk is rellsaed by the
hens, it should not take the place Of
water.
Unless soft feed is being given, the
trough should never be used for holding
food.
Cooked food fattens quickly, prob
ably because It Is more completely d.
gested.

As to the Best sheep.


The breeding Of sheep has been carried
On for SO many years with so much
skill and good business judgment, that
there is not one breed that is not the
best, or that is any better than another,

present time the Shropshire is the most
popular of all the coarse-wool breeds,

next in order, which is the Lincoln,

A S1ush Scraper.

Where a farmer has large ditch
running through his farm slush
scraper is Indispensable. This one is
made from two inch plank, sides five
feet long, with one end patterned for
the scraper and tapered to make suita-
BILE handles, as shown in cut. The
scraper box should be four feet wide,
two feet from front to rear of box, and
one foot in depth. These dimensions
will move almost half yard of mud at
each load, and a team will pull it cas-
lily. The top and bottom of scraper
should be banded with tire iron, which
will make it more rigid and wear bet
ter. Any blacksmith can make the
blade out Of an old drag saw blade or
suitable piece of fiat steel. This should
be bolted and riveted to the box and
band irons of box and made quite sharp
to cut well. The eyelets shown in IL
lustration near the blade are to fasten
a log chain into. With this scraper one
can clean the slush out of large ditch

Hay for Hogs,

A hog likes clover or grass in the sum-
mer and a little clover or alfalfa hay
in the winter, and if properly used they
are good feeds, promoting growth, but
the Nevada experiment station has
proved that hay alone is not cheap
food for hogs. They fed four pigs,
weighing about 40 pounds each on hay
for three weeks, and reported a shrink
age of eighty-fve pounds in that time.
Cow peas and COW pea hay are also
good, and, with the peas in, would come
much nearer being a perfect food than
clover.
