HER LONG TRIP SUCCESSFUL.
Mrs. Gilfeather Causes ConvIc-
tiOn of Hogan for Stealing.

The Jury in the case of John Hogan.
charged by Mrs. Anna Gilfeather OF
Butte. Mont. with robbery in the first
degree. returned a verdict yesterday morn
ing, fixing his punishment at one year In
the City Jail and a fine of 500.
1t was charged that while in Forest
Park Hogan stole the woman's watch.
The timepiece was later found in a pawn
shop and Hogan was identified as the man
who aWned it.
Hogan was tried a month ago and the
jury disagreed. 1t was stated that eleven
Jurors voted for acquittal while one held
out for conviction. The evidence produced
by the State at the second trial was con-
sidered stronger and more convincing. Ho-
gan has filed a motion for a new trial.
Mrs. Gilfeather came all the way from
Butte, Mont. to prosecute Hogan.

THUMB. In Pigs.

More cases Of thumps among pigs
are reported this year than In some
time before, owing, doubtless, to the
rainy weather, which prevented the
pigs from getting the sunshine they SO
much needed. If there Is anything
farmers need to learn about the
handling of young pigs 1t is that they
need sun and exercise, both in con-
siderable quantities. An ideal pasture
for young pigs is place that may be
fenced off from the main pasture
where there Is one or more trees
which will provide shade, but where
there will also be large space Of
comparatively dry ground, In grass, on
which the pigs may run. II there Is
white clover In the grass, so much the
better for the pigs, and they will need
less corn. Sun and exercise viii pre-
vent thumps, which disease usually
means death.

the Company's service. Again, - the
young man who came to this country
over thirty years ago, penniless and
hiendless, and who, during the first two
years, earned only 5000, working beside
a tank foul with the smell of oil; but
to-day, there is scarcely drop of oil
consumed in this country which has not
been purchased from his stupendous
organization, the Standard Oil Company.
In another walk of life, we see at the
head of great college, a man who
chopped wood to pay his way through
school.
The great captains of industry of to-
day were the poor boys of thirty years
ago. 1t was not wealthy parent nor an
influential friend who started these men
on the road to fortune; they made their
own opportunities they fought their own
battles; they have won.
What Is the secret of their success1
What is that irresistible force which has
enabled them to overcome all obstacles,
to surpass their fellow-men1 Every am
bilious young man Is searching for this
secret. He believes that honesty, So
briefly, perseverance, and determination
are essentials In the foundation on which
to build successful career and yet he
realizes that he must possess something
more than these mere prerequisites if he
would achieve conspicuous success.
Those who have studied the lives Of
successful men will tell you that they all
possessed certain force of character
the power to mould the opinions and
direct the actions of others. John D.
Rockefeller has often said that he at
tributes his success largely to his ability
to influence and control the minds of
men. How to acquire that power is told
by Mr.. Edward Box in his Lecture, "Keys
to Success" the most inspiring address to
young men ever heard from an American
platform. Mr.. Box does not preach
theory; he gives good, sound, practical
advice. He tells young men Just how
they can develop those qualities indis-
pensable to success, and win both money
and power. Every word is suggestive
and inspiring.

Lice Troubling Pigs.

1t is not unusual for swine, and par
ticularly the young pigs, to be afiiict-
ed with lice. and the trouble Is usually
due to unclean quarters. IL the pigs
are constantly scratching they should
be closely examined for lice, and IL the
vermin are found the pigs should be
taken from the pen and the latter thor
oughly cleansed. Scrub the pen thor
oughly and then whitewash 1t. The
pigs should also be scrubbed with n
solution OF sulphur or by using. some
of the sheep dips. of which there are
many good ones on the market. Ii no
lice are found on the pigs, then the
trouble generally comes from Inn

Root Crop. for Stock.


There Is not farmer In business
but who can readily spare an acre or
two Of ground on which to grow root
crops. If he has any number Of heads
Of stock he will find that he can not
grow anything on the farm to greater
profit than the small area named put
into root crops. Mangel wurzels are
among the easiest Of the root crops
to grow and they will grow on any
soil If the soil Is properly prepared.
The seed bed should be deep and har-
rowed several times after thorough
blowing. Seeds should be drilled In
and from two to four pounds of seed
an acre will be required. The space
between rows should be kept free from
weeds and when the plants are three
or four inches high they should be
thinned out SO that they will stand
fifteen inches apart.
It will be necessary to keep the field
hoed or cultivated until the plants get
strong enough to overcome any weed
growth. After this no care is neces-
sary until fall harvest. Under this
sort of cultivation 1t Is possible to grow
from 600 to 1000 bushels on an acre,
according to the condition Of the soil.
Carrots and turnips can be easily rails
ed on the same plan, although for gen.
eral feeding the mangels are, perhaps,
more desirable.

question OF fancy breeds suited to the

the breed from those most common In
