GO A. LITTLE SLOW.
See Page 8.

Pork and mutton have scared side
by side this year, while finished beef
seems to have run off on lower
tangent all it's own. This has been
very discouraging for the beef man
and many who have made little money
or lost more feeding steers, are scour-
ing the country for few brood sows
or a lot of pigs with which to en-
bark in the hog business. Hogs have
been paying SO well, however, that
they are hard to get, and good prices
are often demanded for very poor
stuff The buyer should be more care
full than usual therefore, but for the
very reasons given, he is apt to be
less SO. Good hogs are scarce and
high, but we believe there are enough
to go around, and if the cost will
make us more careful with what we
do get, the extra money will be well
spent. The scarcity may also prevent
beginners from going in too heavy and
indirectly insure their staying in long
er than they would if good stock were
more plentiful.
1t is so much better to grow into
any business than to go into it, it is
perhaps well that all who would rush
into hogs on a large scale are un-
able to do so. A half dozen good
brood sows properly cared for and
bred, hold greater possibilities than
four times that number poorly man.
aged and poorer bred.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1903-05-15
IN AND OUT OF THE HOG BUSI-
NESS.

The way some people go into the
hog business reminds one of the way
bees have of starting out on a search
for honey. They fly around and
around, wabbling and turning, and
finally strike out in straight line,
and keep going until their going
amounts to something.
Every time pork prices go up, as
they are at the present time, thou
sands at once plunge into the hog
business, only to go out of it the mo-
ment live hogs touch 3 or cents, or
the spring proves hard one on pigs,
or cholera or some other trouble
thins out the herd. They do this per-
finding their farm is adapted to pork
growing, that one year with another,
if thoroughly understood, it is one of
the best paying things on the farm,
they settle down to growing and turn
ing off about so many hogs year,
according to the size of their farms,
the love they have for the business,
or the amount of other stock they
keep.
We will say one thing, that we have
yet to know the man whose farm was
at all adapted to the business, and
who made it study to grow his pork
in the most economical way, who, if
he stuck to it long enough, did not

1t is high time that newspapers look
elsewhere than to farmers for subjects
for jests and cartoons. In this coun-
try there are upwards of 100000 OF
farmers who own their own land, their
horses, cattle, sheep and hogs, and the
aggregate of their wealth is greater
than the combined riches of the Steel
Trust, the Standard Oil Company and
of all the railroads of the United
States. They live comfortably and
they enjoy life. Place them side by
side with city people and they will
compare most favorably with them in
intelligence and in education. They
are sensible and conservative. They
believe in law and order. They select
good men as candidates for office and
usually elect such. All OF their in
fiuence is cast for what is best in
manhood, and they are intensely pa
triotic AS class, they are just, up
right and honest. Newspapers which
hold them up to ridicule do but belittle
themselves when they do it. Farmers
are readers of newspapers, and above
any other class are educated to rely

PEARL MILLET.

Washington, d. c., May Z, 1903.
Editor The Ranch: Permit me to
call the attention of your readers to
a farmers bulletin just issued by the
Department of Agriculture on Pearl
Millet." This bulletin was prepared
in the office of the agrOstologist, and
gives the results of experiments with
this crop during the past few years.
The special reason for it's prepara-
ton at the present time lies in the
fact that seed of this crop has been
extensively sold under the names,
"Pencillaria" and Mand's Wonder
Forage Plant" at great advance in
price The bulletin gives an account
of the origin and history of the crop
as well as of it's cultivation and until
ization. Any one who is interested
can secure copy of the same by ad-
dressing the Division of Publications,

who said he had recently come from

He asserted his innocence. but A.

the remark We'll. there are others in

the Jail and caused some excitement.
After It had been extinguished Sheriff

nened to ask what was the origin Of
he term "deadhead"
"Well," said Smith. "they say II
started in Detroit about fifty years
ago. Ono street Of the city led to
tollgate at the entrance Of a road
leading into Elwood cemetery. Funeral
PROFESSIONS only were allowed to uav-
erse the road free Of charge. One day
well known physician, DIR. Pierce,
stopped TO pay his toll, but while hand
ing over the money he remarkedi
"'We doctors belong to a benevolent
profession, and i think we should pass
free
"eNo, no, doc responded The gate
keeper. You send enough deadheads
through here without going free your
self
