OLD WAYS MUST GO.
Advanced Methods of the Day
Is Sure to Full.

The man who is engaged in agricul-
tural pursuits at the present day is ex-
pected to keep up and advance with the
agricultural progress OF the world. He
must dispense with the old methods
and adopt the new and later Inventions.
We cannot raise and fed our stock as
our forefathers did hundred years ago
because we are advancing and land is.
more closely taken up; consequently we
must work more on the order of the in
tensive system. We know it is hard for
some farmers, who have been taught
and raised to do thing a certain way,
to change to the better methods 1t
seems to them that it is wrong, and oft
en- they cannot be blamed for feeling so.
But we must gradually free ourselves
from these ideas. All the other depart
ments OF the business world are advance
ing, and why should not agriculture adj
vance with it? The whole race of hui
mainly is depending upon agriculture
for living and the trade should not be
thought any the less of by anyone. The
man who is engaged in other pursuits
of life should honor the farmer, as he
must understand that whatever he eats
comes from him. If the farming class
does not advance with the rest of the
world it will be to it's own loss. 1t is
not natural that we should be satisfied
to work in the same road we did years
ago, or even one year ago. We should
strive to do better this year and make
an advancement wherever possible.
The best, easiest and most practical way
to advance ourselves is given in one sem
tence, namely,-"Read plenty of agricul-
tural literature and apply the facts
gained to actual experience" The farm
ing world would be far behind where it
is now if it were not for the help that has
been given us by farm literature. Every
farmer should try to make some i'm
provement and advancement every day.
Never let your business get the best OF
you, but get the best of it, and you can
best do this by advancing with the rest
OF the World.-E. j. Waterstripe, in Epit-
omist

In far-off Russia there is to-day a

Intestinal worms IN Hogs.

Recently while at the IOWA Agricul-
tural college the writer noticed the
ground in the hog yard Uttered with
excreted intestinal worn3s. The keeper
explained that he had jast given the
swine their semi-annual dose of worm
medicine He said that it was his obser-
walton that hogs were frequently sick
as result of intestinal worms and that
many times diseases arising from worms
were named cholera. This would the
more likely be the case. as large num-
Der of hogs might be sick at the same
time from the same cause This cause of
disease is too frequently overlooked, es-
pecially by the farmer that has only a
few hogs and gives them but little at
tention. When hog eats well and yet
remains stunted it may be guessed that
worms are at least a partial cause

sheep Are Fond OF clover.

The clover crop seems to be of such
supreme value for sheep that it might
be said to be necessary adjunct Of
the successful sheep farm. 1t is many
sided in value being excellent for
growing lambs, splendid for nourish-
ing ewes and high in rank for fatten-

absolutely necessary to attain the best
results In addition to being very
wholesome food, it is remarkable that
sheep should be so ravenous fer every
part OF it, stem, leaf and blossom.

How DINAH VIEWED IT.-On her re-
turn to her home in one of the small
provincial towns of the south, her mis-
tress brought the cook a number of
new and. to her. wonderful kitchen
utensils. Dinah had never seen patent
egg beaters, pairing knives, or any of
the ingenious devices in common use in
cities, and she exhibited a satisfactory
degree of pleasure in their possession.
When her wonder had somewhat abat-
ed she said to her mistress:
Miss Sally, please, ma'am, do show
me somefn you got for youse'f."
Her eye fell upon an india rubber air
cushion, and she begged to be shown
it's use. Her mistress, putting it to her
mouth, inflated it, and laying it on the
seat Of a chair sat upon it.
Dinah raised her hands in astonish-
ment, exclaiming:
"Lor, Missus. you is settin' on you
own breff, amt you?"
