Rejects the starvation Remedy.

In paper read at the last meeting
Of the American Poland China Record
Association, held at Cedar Rapids, Ia,
Mr.. H. L. Sweet said, relative to the
effect of judicious diet on fecundity.
There is no hard and fast rule to be
laid down regarding the treatment of
the brood sow. The method to be pur.
sued is to be determined largely by
the condition of the animal herself
When | purchased Lady Louise in the
fall of 1900. suppose very few of the
breeders who were gathered around
the sale ring at that time believed
that she would prove a breeder.
and, in fact, think she is the only
one OF that litter of tine sows sold at
that time who actually d.I breed.
brought her home. and so far from
starving her fed her all she cared to
eat, the ration consisted of ground
oats, middlings and skinned milk.
She was allowed to run N a lot and
provided with bed in one of the A
shaped houses used by SO many breed.
ers. She was bred about December l.,
and the latter part of March narrowed
nine healthy, active pigs. one of which
was accidentally killed when a few
days old. The rest lived to be six
months old, when one was killed by
accident. The sow was resold to Mr..
VIM, and 1t is fresh in the minds Of
all OF you how readily she was refitted
for show, and how successfully. l be-
lieve thoroughly that this sow could
not have been successfully fitted the
second time had she been subjected to
the starvation treatment as method
Of reducing her flesh, and | also be
lieve that her young were stronger
and more vigorous as result Of her
liberal feeding.

The reaction which came over the
old man was terrible to witness. He
Realized that after all he might lose
his beloved captain, whose life was
still in danger, for he was once more
a prisoner.
We'll. well, all may yet be lost!"
he sighed. "Crack-lash, let's go and
hunt him. Now that we know he is
alive, we got something to hunt for,
and well hunt him. Come, Crack
Iashi"
After considerable persuasion Paul
induced him to wait until next morn
ing; so they built a camp fire and
prepared to pass the night
Next morning they were early astir.
They had packed their knapsacks
and were about ready to start, when
Paul suggested:
Perhaps the walrus hide will tell
something about this mystery. Let
us take look at it."

knowledge of picture writing TO the
seVerest test to read He made out
that the captain had discovered rich
gold dlgglngs, but the walrus hide
could give them no hint as to the
whereabouts OF the three men and
their prisoner.
Paul suddenly rolled up the walrus

said:

camp and were soon on their way up

search, the result of which they knew
to be doubtful.

A Possible Combine of Fruit Hand

- Possible Combine OF Fruit Handlers
A Chicago paper, devoted to the
commission trade, is urging the mer-
chants on South Water street to form
a solid and complete organization. Il
says that at the present time there
are four distinct organizations there,
the Butter and Egg board, National
League Of Commission Merchants, the
Wholesale Produce Merchants asso-
citation and the Fruit and Vegetable
Shippers association. 1t is now de-
sired to combine all of these and also
all other interests on the street. This
would give most powerful organiza-
ton. The question with the common
producer and consumers Is very
lively one. No matter how small a
sum the producer gets for his fruit
and vegetables, the consumer pays
handsome price for them. Pro-
dnction is thus not encouraged. To
day. as 1t Is organized, the South
Water street is getting big part
of the profits made on fruit. II the
organization be made more perfect,
without Goubt still larger profit will
be made by the South Water street
merchant. This is a very desirable
thing from the standpoint of the South
Water street merchant, but Is 1t SO
desirable from the standpoint of the
fruit grower and the fruit consumer?
II simply looks as If the fruit business
would have to pay still greater per-
centage of toll to the South Water
street dealers. If this thing keeps
on, the fruit growers and the fruit
consumers will be compelled to or
eanize in their own protection.
Steady Prices Wanted.
There is great deal of dispute as
10 what the apple outlook is. A con-
yention of apple shippers held some
time ago in New York state put the
outlook as good" and predicted a
large crop to be handled. Immediate
ly apple growers east and west at
tackled the report on the outlook and
declared that the high figures had
beer sent out to influence the market

al apple buyers might get hold of all
tho apples possible before the true
state of things should be found out
ly the apple growers. In answer the
buyers declare that their figures were
correct and that there has been no at.
tempt TO influence the market price,.
Certainly what we all want is COM
clifton that will give steady prices.
That condition can only be brought
about by an honest statement as to
the crop. The constant fiuctuation
of prices demoralizes both the pro
cacers' and the purchasers fruit. The
retail buyer even will hesitate to buy
If he thinks the market may go lower,
and the seller hesitates to sell hoping
the market may go higher. When the
prices are stable and are sure TO re-
main about the same throughout the
season both the buyers and the sellers
are anxious to do business. realizing
that there is no money in stagnation.
