Hog Raising for Small
Farmers.

1t requires but comparatively
little capital to stock a farm with
hogs. and 1t takes them but a
short tine to convert the crop
into money. This is why we
consider swine raising adapted
to farmers with limited means.
In the spring and summer large
numbers can be raised upon
grass, clover, rape and ground
grain made into a slop or por-
ridge. In the fall, as soon as the
corn is suffi GENTLY matured, they
can be fattened, and thus the en-
tire crop of corn and pasture
can be marketed by the first of
October.
One requirement in raising
swine is plenty of good water and
a moderately large range. Where
hogs. are too closely confined,
disease is liable to set in. They
also require close attention and
regular feeding.
Farmers of limited means so
often try to farm without keep
ing any stock and selling their
grain. We have never known
anyone to prosper at this. Sell
ing off the grain is also selling
off the fertility OF the farm. If
the farm is to be kept up, fer
tilizer must be extensively used,
and this will consume the profit.
If stock is kept, they will return
a large per cent of the fertility
to the soil, while they consume
the grain at a profit.
The good demand for all kinds
of meat, and the high prices
paid, is great encouragement for
farmers to raise large numbers
of stock of all kinds. These
are the most prosperous times
for farmers we have known.
Pope says: "Man never is,
but always to be blessed" and
farmers will hardly ever admit
the present is ideal, but they
surely must admit these
are prosperous times for stock
raising.
Many persons buy their grain
and then raise stock at a profit.
1t requires much more money to
stock a farm with cattle than it
does with hogs, and it takes so
long for them to convert the
crops at as great a profit as any
stock except chickens. BY rails
ing them in the spring only the
breeding stock need to be kept
over winter. Thus they require
but few buildings, which is often
an advantage to farmers of linn
tied means. They are not safe
to invest too much in, in localities
that are often infested with
cholera. The wealthiest farmers
we know have been swine raisers.
One should study the methods
used by those most successful in.
order to save themselves from
mistakes from lack of experience.
Reading alone does not qualify
a person for any work. Each
locality is different and requires
various changes. By studying
the methods of the most success
full we learn what particular vari-
atoms will be necessary. Be.
forewe have been humbled by sew.
eral failures we are seldom will
ling to initiate. Success is
everything is a result brought
about by a cause. Let us find
out the cause that we may enjoy
success also.
Let all farmers take advantage
of the present prosperous times
and raise and market as much
stock as possible, not forgetting
there is but little profit or pleas
ure in raising scrub stock of any
kind.-C. Wright, Salem, Ind.

The bishop approached the counter and
said TO the man in attendance: Would

HOUSE FAvoRs
INDIAN TERRITOF

.
INDIAN TERRITORY
The first favorable step taken TO-
wards relieving Indian territory was
the passage In the house of Mr.
stephens BILL providing for the is
sua1ce Of bonds for public improve
meats in towns having over 1000
population The bill provides that
cities in Indian territory may Issue
bonds TO an amount not exceeding
mills on each dollar Of taxable prop
erty of the municipality for the con
struction of sewers. water works and
school houses. Il is also provided
that before any bonds can be issued
hey must be authorized by a two
thirds majority vote at an election to
be called for that purpose. Even then,
however. the bonds can not be issued
until it is made to appear to the salts
faction of the judges OF the United
States court for the judicial district
in which the municipality is located
by petition of the mayor and council
thereof. that all the requirements OF
the law have been complied with
When this has been done the judge
is directed to enter it uron the min
utes of his court, a judgment of de-
cree, reciting the facts as he finds
them TO be.
Towns taking advantage of this
law must provide for an annual tax
sufficient to pay the interest on the
bonds as it falls due, and also to pay
the principal within twenty years from
the date he contracting of the OBJ
legation In the event that any muni-
cipality has already received authorl-
ty under any special act Of congress
to issue bonds, the amount so issued
shall be deducted first, and there shall
only be issued under this act such
additional bonds as shall not exceed
the limit provided.

YEARS POLICE WORK
Arrests Were Far More Numerous
Than in 1900.
MANY CASES NOT MADE TO STICK
Increase of Dismissals Credited to
the introduction of Inexperi-
enced Police officers.

The records Of the municipal court
tell some interesting stories of police
management during the present year.
The police were undeniably active along
some lines, as is shown by the fact that
the commitments to the Workhouse for all
causes aggregated 1,948 for the year,
against but 1,424 for 1900. The increase is
explained mainly by the larger numberof
arrests of persons charged with disorderly
conduct, drunkenness and vagrancy. On
the score of gambling, the years record
of arrests was exceedingly slim, the total
number of arrests being but eight, and
all of them were boys of tender years,
charged with shooting craps. The many
responsible adults who have been doing
the real thing" all this year escaped en-
tirely. Another significant fact told by
the figures of the year is the large num-
Der of people arrested who were found not
guilty Of the offenses charged. There
were 4,6SS convictions, and ITO discharges,
against 3,S0S convictions, and l61 dis
charges in 1900. The explanation is found, it
is asserted, in the lack of experience and
judgment on the part Of the police, and
still more to their strenuous desire to
make record irrespective of the merits
of the case. The grand total of arrests,
both under the statutes, and under the
ordinances, was 5,O4S, against a total Of
4,268 in 1900. The number of drunks was
1857, against 1866 last year, and the
YagS 3S4, compared with 2S5.
