Extending an End Gate.

When corn has been loaded on a
wagon, it is very unhandy to shovel off
at first until the bottom of the wagon
box has been reached. 70 overcome
this difficulty different methods are
followed, such as laying one end Of a
long, wide board on the end gate of the
wagon and the other on the floor of the
box before loading and shoveling on
the board till the bottom of the box
is to be got at. but the extending end
gate, shown in the picture, will be
found among the best Of these expe-
dients. It is fastened to the bed of the
box by strap hinges which are sunk
into the wood so as not to interfere
with the shovel. The gate is made
wide enough to allow the side pieces to
be outside Of the box. iron straps hold
the side pieces secure on the gate. A
rod Of one-quarter inch iron looped in
the manner shown in the cut is at
tached on each side. Thumbscrew
bolts enable the looped rods to hold the
gate when let down. When the hand
bolts are screwed up tightly on the
rod they will hold the gate when

Feeding Hay to Hogs.


Farmers are not accustomed to feed
Ing hay to hogs, but the Kansas Ex-
pertinent Station reports that better
results We're obtained from feeding
alfalfa hay and Kaffir corn to hogs
than from Kaf1ir corn only. The hay
was fed dry, in forkfu1s, and the pigs
were given an abundance. They
picked out the leaves and finer stems.
rejecting the coarser portions. 1t was
demonstrated that pork could be pro-
duced cheaply by putting the hogs on
pasture in summer and feeding hay in
the winter, allowing proportion of
grain during severely cold weather.
1t has long been known that when clo-
yer hay is cut very fine and scalded,
leaving the moss overnight and sprink-
ling it with bran and cornmeal, it is
very acceptable to swine Such a ra-
ton is very complete in both the car
bonaceous and nitrogenous elements,
and costs much less than grain. Pigs
that are fed on grass grow more rap
idly than when given grain exclusive
~, although an allowance of grain will
always be of advantage. All animals
are benefited with bulky food, as grain
is too concentrated, and is better di-
gested when mixed with other foods.

Gen.snon Sense 81 Eence .Ruildine.

sssss On sense In Fence sRuild1nk. -
II your fences are built so as to be
naturally well-drained 1t will tend to
their permanency. A practical farmer
makes suggestion which not only
Will result In better fence for breechy
cattle, but will prove economical in
several ways.
y If you intend to build board, wire
or other straight fence says this wri-
ter, you can save considerable in the
cost by throwing two burrows on each
side In ridge on the exact line where
you want the fence to stand. This
will elevate the ground about eight
inches and depress the ground in the
ditch or furrow on each side about six
inches more, making your fence about
fourteen inches without any expense.
THE ridge so thrown up should be
esown at once with timothy, blue and
orchard grass, which, in the Middle
States, will quickly form tough sod.
Breechy cattle, standing with their
front feet in the ditch, even if the
renee is a foot lower than usually built.
will hesitate before attempting to scale
it. Also a fence built this way will
last longer, as the posts will not decay
SO soon, and the frosts do not have
such bad effect"

He Wasn't DeDOrfed.

Shortly after the Chinese exclusion
act was passed the secretary of state
received a letter from Pennsylvania,
signed by a Chinaman. The writer
said that he had been interested i in
this legislation and that he fell within
the conditions of this act. He had
come to this country under false pre-
lenses, and hence he should be deport-
ed Immediately. The request was. so
strange that the secretary of states or-
dered an investigation. The agent re-
ported a few days later that the Chi
naman's statement about the way in
which he entered this country was COR
rect and that he should be deported:
There was just one drawback to this
programme, however. The Chinaman
had been convicted Of murder and SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment.
