Justice? And we all answered 1T is,

tne man justice to say that he made
what amends he could by informing
us Where he had hidden the gold
which had brought about the death of
one man, and was about to cause that

Watch the HOGS Carefully.

A hog that does not care for it's corn
is an object Of suspicion. 1t should
at once be separated from the herd.
Both the sick pig and the herd, which
are as yet apparently well, should be
thoroughly disinfected themselves
and their yards, nests and feeding
troughs-and put on a laxative, cool
ing diet. On a failure Of the off-its-
feed pig to recover at once, or the ap-
pearance Of further disorders in the
herd, resort Immediately to stringent
measures to cure hog cholera-for the
chances are that your herd has this
fatal disease.
We are convinced that every farm
on which swine are kept should be
provided with a dipping tank for
swine, in order to keep the stock free
from lice and skin disease by an occa-
sional dipping, and especially to dis
infect the hogs in case of a threatened
outbreak Of cholera. The dipping tank
Is comparatively cheap appliance

Remedy for sca1y Leg.


The disease, scaly leg, is we'll known
to all who keep poultry, and while it
is considered that the presence Of this
trouble does not affect the health of
the fowl, it is an Objectionable trouble
and ought to be removed. There is
good reason to believe that the COM
fort If not the health of the fowl is
affected, for the scaly leg is due to a
parasite and the working of the mite
must be more or less annoying to the
birds.
The Illustration shows how the scaly
leg looks, and it will be seen that it
differs from the other leg trouble
known as tuberculosis leg. The pene-
trating Of the mites beneath the scales
causes them to protrude so that to
reach the mites and remove the cause
Of the trouble the scales must be re-
moved. Soak the legs in warm, soapy
water until the scales are softened
somewhat. then remove them with a

Overlooking of Fowl.

Irregular feeding usually means over
feeding. The fowl, like other animals
that are not fed at proper intervals, Is
liable to eat too much at one time, and
suffer from Indigestion. But such suf-
fering means ceasing Of egg produc-
ton for the fowl as surely as it does
of milk production in the cow. There
Is but one way to prevent this, and that
is the feeding at regular hours, and If
any cause, as an enforced absence from
home, delays the feeding hour, give
less rather than more to the flock and
see that the larger and more greedy
ones do not obtain more than their
proper share Even missing one feed
ing entirely Is not as bad for them IS
getting too much at one time, and IL
any time is an excuse for a hearty
feeding it is just before they go to
roost at night. Then they can digest
1t before morning. Whether too much
at that time ever gives them the night
mare or not we cannot say. but we new
err saw or heard any indications Of it.

Passing of the Public Range.

According to a telegram from Helena,
Mont, the cattlemen Of the Northwest
are buying land rapidly and settling
down with their herds. They have be-
gun to realize that the public range
will soon be a thing Of the past, and
that the man who would continue in
the business of raising cattle must
have land of his own upon which to
Craze them. This is an encouraging
feature Of the live stock industry, for
it means more cattle on the same num-
Der of acres and better cattle than
have been produced by the ranges. At
the same time it makes the cattleman
independent and no longer at the mercy
Of the seasons, compelled to move
hither and thither with his herds In
order to find sustenance for them.

Oleo Sold for Rutter.

The oleo people have always made
strong point of oleo being a cheap but
ter for the poor man. and many have
been the crocodile tears shed by the
cleo trust over the inability of the poor
man to pay the high price for COW but
ter. OF course every one knows how
readily the oleo makers sacrifice them
selves for the poor, BUTTERFLIES laborlng
man, but we have never been able TO
obtain figures showing the exact extent
of the sacrifice until the last report OF
the PENNSYLVANIA dairy and food com
mission came to hand.
This report shows that out of l,4S2
samples bought for butter in the Penn
sylvania groceries 1876 Of them were
oleo. AS the above was sold at butter
prices, the poor man had to pay about
S119 over what he could have bought
the oleo for under it's own name. This
is philanthropy at 10 cents per pound
excess profit.-Hoard's Dairyman.

water till dissolved. Paint this over
the boards with large, fiat brush, and

well with beeswax and turpentine.
After one or two polishings the floor
will be in excellent condition.

InfertiIity of Eggs.

One of the best plans of avoiding In
fertility of eggs, If it be really due to
the forcing of eggs during the winter,
is to have a number of selected fowls
that are kept solely for the purpose of
supplying the eggs that are to be hatch
ed. While this plan would entail con-
siderable labor and separate pen, 1t
would also enable poultry -raisers to
utilize the valuable two and three-year-
old hens that are not equal to the task
of heavy winter laying.
1t is advocated by some authorities
that more heavy grain and less in the
way of mashes be fed to laying hens,
the claim being that the vitality of the
bird can be kept up longer by this
method.

The Stable Floor.

Undoubtedly the most convenient
floor of a stable is of cement. The
ideal floor is made of cement, with
movable plank floors for the stalls. In
localities where the soil Is Of a clayey
nature the natural soil will make a
very satisfactory floor If the stalls are
fioored with plank and plank cutters
are provided for the manure. Such a
floor makes an excellent temporary ar
rangement. and cement can be pur-
chased and laid as time and funds Wsal

quickly destroy all corks.
The newest thing in the china de-
partments is the roll tray, which is
made just the width of a Vienna roll
and is rather long in proportion.
To clean tinware wash it with hot
water and soap and then, after dry
ing, polish it with dried -four, using a
piece of old newspaper as polishing
cloth.
In baking potatoes the flavor is much
improved by first boiling them for
about ten minutes with the skins on
and then draining before putting them
In the oven.
An excellent furniture polish is made
by mixing together one-third Of alco7
hol and two-thirds of sweet oil. Apply
with one soft cloth and polish off with
another.
When washing fiannels shake and
brush them thoroughly before plung-
| ing into the water, as this removes the
dirt in a more satisfactory manner and
keeps the fiannels white.
Vegetables which have been touched

Pure Bred Cattle in Iowa.

Iowa not only has the reputation Of
being the greatest agricultural State
in the Union, but that it leads as well
in the production of fine cattle. In the
breeding Of shorthorns it stands first,
and the sale of these cattle clearly
shows that the business is on a good
paying basis. The average of the sales
Of Iowa shorthorns the last year has
been from 5000 to 1925 head, with the
majority of sales ranging from $500
to $500 head. The breeders of Here
ford cattle in Iowa enjoy good
healthy trade in their favortes, breed
ing about one-tenth of all the Hereford
cattle in the United States, and repre-
scented by over three hundred breeders,
two hundred Of whom are members Of
the association. Thus Iowa stands
fourth in the production and sale Of
Hereford cattle, and the prices obtained
at the public sales averaged from 5000
to $500 a head. Although there are
ten times as many shorthorns in the
United States, and three times as many
Herefords as Aberdeen-Angus, yet the
farmers and breeders Of Iowa are
reaching out for the latter kind, and
Iowa stands first in the breeding Of
Angus cattle, having nearly three hun
dred breeders raising one-third Of all
the Angus cattle in the United States,
showing a growth and increase within
the State Of 800 per cent in the last ten
years.-Agricultural Epitomist.

Don't Use Milk Personalities.

Don't Use Milk Preservatives.
Several so-called milk preseryatives
are being offered this year that were
not on the market a year ago, and the
claim is made for at least one Of them
that it will not in any way injure the
milk. 1t would seem almost unneces-
sary to advise farmers to avoid these
preservatives, for the use of them will
mean trouble. The local board of
health in nearly every town in the
country sufficiently large to have such
body of men. backed by the law, will
make more trouble this year than ever
before. Formalin and other chemicals
used for the preservation of milk are
very injurious to health, and laws
against the use of them are vigorously
enforced. Unfortunately, the farmer
cannot control the milk after it leaves
his hands, b4t as many farmers de-
liver the product of their diaries direct
to the consumer this warning Is meant
for them. The writer has personal
knowledge that the utmost precautions
are being taken In many States, and
there is no way Of fooling these au-
thorities. In some sections the law
has been changed so that a term of
imprisonment has been added to the
heavy fine that was imposed a year
ago. In other sections fine and i'm
prisonment takes the place of fine or
Imprisonment.
