When the Pigs Come.

The exact time when the pigs are
to be narrowed should be known, so
that ample protection can be provided,
and the sow given the right kind of
treatment After a sow selects a
place for narrowing, it is poor practice
to disturb her Sometimes this must
be done, but if SO. she should be
handled very carefully. 1t is much bet
ter to protect her in her chosen place
than to try to move her. When sow
is in a nice, comfortable house few
days before she farrows, she is not apt
to leave it to go to some out of-the-
way place. unless she has the run of
a large field. R. Jamison, in Orange
Judd Farmer.

POINTS ABOUT PEARS
uasardess Eating fer Those WIS
Are Subject to Sour
Stomach

The pear is closely related to the ap-
pie, and, like 1t. is very SUSCEPTIBLE to
Improvement through careful and prop
er cultivation. 1t is less hardy than the
apple, and to be enjoyed at its best must
be allowed to fully ripen on the tree.
But in this condition it will not bear
long transportation so well as the APP
pie, and is, therefore. gathered while
still quite green when intended for
the market. These pears even when al
lowed to become soft and mellow do not
have the fine favor of those which re-
main pendant In the sun until their
juices are sweet as fragrant honey and
the pulp tender and melting in the
mouth. A ripe pear of superior quality
is better suited for being eaten raw
than apples. says the Washington Star.
Owing to the large amount of sugar
in the fully ripe. juicy pear, it may
cause abnormal fermentation, which
often results In diarrhoea. The tough,
coarse-grained varieties are also likely
to cause disturbances in the stomach,
and this kind should be avoided by chill
dren and those people who must pay
strict regard to what they eat The
excessive sweetness OF this pleasant
fruit makes 1t hazardous eating for
those who are subject to sour stomach.
The cultivated pear has very small
amount of acid-not enough to coagu-
late milk to any unsafe or unpleasant de-
gree, therefore the pear may be COM
hined with any suitable food. and is de-
licious eaten with cereals and cream.
The pear is highly priced by the house.
wife as choice and delightful addition
to her list Of preserving fruits. Canned,
preserved, candied; in jam, marmalade
or butter; spiced or picked, it is equally
good and useful.
Stewed pears are a serviceable as
we'll as pleasant addition to the diet;
when ripe they require but little if any
sweetening. and they act as a gentle
stimulant when eaten in moderate
quantities, aiding the digestion Of rich
er foods.

TOURED THE FROZEN NORTH.



Mr.. Charles Glidden. Of Boston, is the
first man to cross the Arctic circle in an
automobile. His wife accompanied him
on his wonderful trip. He has given
London interviewers some interesting
particulars Of his adventures in north
ern ATTITUDES.
Their auto was 16-horse power ma
chine, specially built at Coventry, and
they started from Liverpool on June 25.
After touring the British Isles for
some time they shipped for Copenhagen,
traversed Denmark, and ferried over to
Sweden, in which country they drove
1,540 miles and touched their most
northerly point, the township OF Kom-
mis-, just beyond the arctic circle.
In the remote parts of the country Mr..
Glidden's car was the first horseless car
rage that the inhabitants had seen. and
the party was received with delighted
amazement
Mr. Glidden says that the Norwegian
officials have very queer ideas on the
subject of auto touring
They stipulated, as conditions to the
official permission to tour the country.
that the route should be published in the
local newspaper in every section six
days in advance; that the sheriffs of the
towns through which the-party intended
to drive should be notified Of the exact
hour of intended arrival, and that a
courier on horseback should be ser
ahead to warn the inhabitants that the
car was coming.
These stipulations were the reason
for Mr. Glidden choosing Sweden in
stead of Norway for his trip.
His auto behaved splendidly through
out, developing no defects which the
chauffeur could not easily rectify.
After returning from Sweden Mr.. and
Mrs. Glidden continued their tour
through central Europe, the total mile
age being $50, which was covered in

" gratifying. The present form has
for years been our choice and fancy,
but never before have we been able to
see our way clear in making the change
1t requires a great deal more paper,
One-half. besides it require much more
type-setting, the issue last week con-
tanning about 264 inches of type-set
matter, more by long odds than is set

elaborate cover, and in which we hope
to have an advertisement of every bus

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion really feeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.
