that electricity produces an augmen-

the 'more fertile the soil and the

Look After the Pigs.


Now is the time to push your pigs.
The same food will make more flesh in
warm than in cold weather The aver
age tenant or small farmer has not
counted the value of n fat hog for his
family. A good hog, ten to twelve
months old, can be grown upon the
Stops Of any family, Many families
could feed two or three and never miss
what they eat. This hog should now
weigh $50 pounds or more, Such hog
is worth more than $50 to the family.
If you have not provided for this fall,
now is the time to look out for next
fall. Get a few pigs and try the ez-
pertinent.
Almost any Of the improved breeds
will do. The Yorkshires are being
especially recommended for this pur'
pose They are perhaps worthy good
trial They make more meat and less
lard.
Keep pig or a few pigs, but be sure
to keep a clean pig-pen, 1t is easily
done when once you fix for it. Have a
good. tight floor and slant 1t so that
all the droppings will be easily collect
ed and carried to the farm or garden

Chickens with stiT Joints.

1t is a little singular that there
should at this time be so much COM
plant about chickens developing stiff
Joints and lameness, with a tendency
to sit about during the daytime, and
gradually weaken and finally die.
The writer has had several letters
on the subject lately, with a view to
defining the disease and devlsing a
remedy, But, do not think that can
tell exactly what it is, or say what is
BEST to do for the fowls so afflicted;
other than to define 1t as rheumatism,
and swelled joints, the cause Of which
is not so easily stated.
In my past experience l have noticed
the symptoms more prominently in in
pred stock; that is, stock that has been
bred for a number Of years without
changing cocks, so as to infuse new
blood which latter is always invigorat-
ing and valuable in stimulating more
active or rapid growth, and earlier and
more prolific laying on the part Of the
pullets from such matings. This is
one way in which to forestall, or pre-
vent stiffness and swollen JOINTS but
AZ does not help us any with fowls that
are already affected with it,

IS very simple, and which costs moth

then remove the vessel from the fire.
Next add two gallons of kerosene and

are turned out to drink or for exercise
they may not be able to ramble all over

Little Rodent Quickly Tanned and Now
Enjoys Being Fondled.
Miss Flora Mitchell, an actress, who
has been confined to the Homestead
Hospital, in Marion, where she has
been an invalid for five weeks, has
tanned a mouse, says the Indianapolis
News. For more than a week the
mouse has been almost a constant
companion of the actress, who says
that it has greatly helped her to pre-
serve her cheerfulness.
The first week Miss Mitchell was
confined to her room she noticed the
occasional presence of the animal,
and, being lonely, began to lay bread
crumbs and other mouse food where it
would be handy for the little crea-
ture Soon 1t became holder, and after
a few days it would come near the
bed and eat the mites Of bread and
meat almost as soon as they were
dropped by the hand of the sick wo-
man.
She gradually began to reach toward
the animal, until finally she touched it
and stroked its furry coat. 1t has
never shown the least fear, and about
week ago Miss Mitchell picked it
up and allowed 1t to run at will over
her hands and lap From that time she
has not had the least trouble In pick
ing 1t up. In fact, It will run toward
her, and seems to delight In being
fondled. 1t makes no attempt to bite
her, but when others attempt to fondle
it there is trouble at once.
