SELL AT HOME.

If your wool has been poorly
handled, is bury or otherwise defec-
tive, discriminating market, where
wool is carefully examined by the
purchaser, might not be desirable;
sell at home.
If there is sufficient speculative ex-
eitement among buyers to raise prices
above prices in the large distributing
markets-sell DIT home.
If you have a legitimate use for the
money your clip will bring, or owe
interest bearing debts, which your
clip will pay-sell at home.
II markets show no strong tendency

HOG NOTES.


Hogs in pasture should have some
grain each day.
Cleanliness will do much to ward
off disease at this time.
During the summer supply plenty
of water and shade.
The pig pens should always be ar
ranged so as to afford ventilation and
sunshine.
On many farms few pigs can be
kept more profitably in proportion
than large number.
With growing pigs too much fat will
check the growth of the bone and
muscle.
If when in the pastures the pigs get
to roofing the only sure remedy is
ringing.
A brood sow should never be pen
ned up closely, but have access to
good pasturage.
There is no economy in keeping a
sow on the farm that is troublesome
or vicious.
There is no class of stock that re-
ceiyes so little attention as hogs and
more than repays little. care and at
tention.
One of the best feeds for growing
pigs during the summer is sweet
corn, feeding stalks and all.
Under no conditions should the
milk and slop fed to the hogs take
the place OF pure, fresh water; they
will diminish in addition.
No one should expect an animal to
be profitable and make living from
the refuse of the farm, and yet this
is what many farmers expect the hogs
to do.
For finishing hogs for the butcher,
shorts, peas, corn, oats and barley
are the best. And here is variety,
too.
The one who has good supply of
pasture for his hogs is now reaping
large benefits. Later on its good
effects will be even more apparent.
Give the young pigs a low trough.
Hanging over high troughs while eat
ing causes the young pigs to get
crooked hacks.
Cow peas as soil improvers and for
fodder, too, are coming to the front
and will be planted extensively by
some and experimentally by others.
Don't be in hurry to kill or sell
your old sows that are proved profit
able mothers. You will find 1t diff
cult to replace them.
In selecting breeding stock in the
hog line it will not pay to chase after
fancy points, such as certain tip to
the ear, a few white hairs in the tail
or a peculiar mark on the back. Such
points add nothing to the value of an
animal, and weigh nothing on the
scales.

New York Times.
An analysis Of some government sta
tistics accounts for the attractiveness OF
Washington more convincingly than those
reports that suggest an explanation, either
In the beauty VI the national capital, the
fascination Of intimate neighborhood to the
powerful, the opportunities for swift, easy
and inexpensive social success afforded by
customs peculiar to Washington, or the re-
mote possibility Of promotion from the low
est clerical position to the highest subordi-
nate office.
Uncle Sam employs something like
255, 900 persons in his civil service. Most
of these persons are In the departmental
service all over the countryside customs,
the postal service, the war and naval off,
ces, the agencies of the interior and the
agricultural departments. 1t costs about
1881 900, 900 a year to pay these public serv-
ants, and the average pay is more than
$500 a year. The government force at
Washington, exclusive of officers Of the
army and navy on duty there is about
$1,000. Yet the average pay is $1,129 a
year.. This high average, Of course, in
cludes the pay Of 1856 a year to the least
paid clerk or employe in the classified
service and the cabinet officer at 5000.
The employee at the lowest rate, however,
Is soon aware of the fact that Nowhere else
could the opportunities for advancement he
found that are almost forced upon him in
Washington. To keep out of the race for
promotion is impossible.
Whatever may be the defects of the
methods for ascertalning the competency of
clerks to discharge the duties they are
appointed to perform, 1t is evident, from
the farf that 670 narcOna y ornnINuad
for every sixty-three who go out from all
causes each year, that the machinery for
grinding out e~ligibles works tolerably we'll,
and that II works fast enough is rather pa

Of prompt pay at the end Of each fort

opportunity to secure another months

There has been a growing tendency to
regard this sick leave as an extension OF
the thirty-day leave that must be lived
up to, and clerks who have been many
years In office and have forgotten how

URGES CUBAN RECIPROCITY.

President Roosevelt's message to on
gress urging reciprocity with Cuba is
Enthusiastically direct and earnest.
He makes no specific recommendation
as to tariff concession, but thinks that
the proper course Is to reduce duties on
Cuban products, rather than to adopt
the doubtful policy of giving a rebate.
The president has 40 fear that the pro-
posed reciprocity with Cuba would in
jure any American industry, but his
reference to Porto Rico and Hawaii in
support Of this view is not convincing.
Hawaiian sugar was admitted free to
the United States years before the
islands became American territory, so
that their acquisition made no difference
in this respect. The product of Porto
Rico is SO small in amount that the
competition is not and never will be
felt. Cuba, however, can produce sufi-
cient sugar to supply the entire Amer
lean demand and in a few years will
do SO under the encouragement of tariff
concession. This would necessarily
mean the destruction Of u beet and
cane sugar industries.
1t will be admitted that the president
has made out as strong a case in behalf
Of reciprocity with Cuba as could be
presented. There is no doubt that he
most earnestly believes it to be the i'm
perative duty of the United States to
help the new republic by tariff favors
to its products. He does not show, how
ever, that this can better be done by
reducing duties than by granting a re-
bate, simply remarking that the latter
Is Of doubtful policy. A great many
will concur in the views expressed by
Mr.. Roosevelt, but many others, includ-
ing men prominent in his own party,
will disagree with him. 1t remains to
be seen what impression the message
will make upon congress, but the indi-
cations are that it will not materially
change the situation, the position of the
president on this question having been
well known before.
