The Hog and the Earth.

There is an affinity between the hog
and the earth that should not be ig-
nored. Floors are all right to feed on,
but hogs confined on floors are in an
unnatural position and will not do well.
Floors are especially repugnant to
brood sows both before and after far
rowing. But remember that mud is
worse than hard floor. Hogs should
have a bed on dry earth to sleep on,
and they can do very well without
mud at any time.

have about ten per cent greater feeding
value than cOrnmeal. 1t can generally
be bought for less money than the lat

Handy Device for Gardeners.
Here Is a handy device which may
be readily made at home. and one that
will be thoroughly appreciated by
market gardeners who have large
quantities of vegetables to prepare for
market The device consists of box
open at both end. made of boards a
foot long and Of any desired width.
These boards are used to make the
sides and the bottom as shown In the
lower part Of the cut. TO one side
board is screwed section Of an old
scythe blade, the edge being sharpen
ed so that it will cut readily. Across
the top of both side boards, in the
center, cut slit about an inch deep.
Lay the string in these cuts and place
the vegetables to be punched on 1t until
the string touches the bottom of the
box. When the bunch is Of the desired
size tie it with the string and then
bring the string in contact with the
edge of the scythe blade attached to
the side board. The work can be done

MONEY IN SMALL FRUIT.
Farmers in the PalOuse Beginning
to Find 1t Out.

Garfield, Wash, May lis. T.
Laird, former proprietor of the Mer-
chants hotel of this city, has a large
force of men at work setting out straw
berry plants on his ranch. Mr.. Laird
contemplates setting out three acres to
this kind of fruit G.. f. Averill has a
small patch of Strawberries and rasp-
berries that brought the owner last sea-
son about $3.50. There is about one
third of an acre in this tract. Farmers
are just beginning to find out that there
is money in small fruit, and from this
time on more attention will be paid to
this kind of work.

Buvinu Cheap Fertilizers.

Buying Cheap Fertilizers.
Most Of the troubles farmers have
had with commercial fertilizers were
due to the fact that they paid high
prices for articles Of little or no value
To Illustrate: The analysis Of certain
fertilizer for which the manufacturer
asked $27.50 per ton was recently sent
to the writer. and. taking the figures
of per cent as given by the manufac-
turer as n basis. and deducting from
them the proper per cent of tire three
plant foods, nitrogen. potash and phos-
phoric acid, we found the actual value
Of the fertilizer to be less than $14, bas-
ing our figures on the cost Of the three
ingredients named In the open market
bagging and the price might run up
to trifle over $14. leaving for the
manufacturer and his selling agents II
profit Of over $40 per ton. 1t is true
that the mixture as submitted was
what might be termed low-grade fer
could be relied upon to figure out the
value mentioned. This Is but one evil
dence Of what farmers have to contend
with In buying cheap fertilizers, and
an argument in favor of buying the
higher grades of commercial fertilizers,
even at the advanced price, as we'll as
a most forcible argument in favor Of
buying the ingredients needed and do
ing the mixing at home. AS a matter
Of fact we have paid for the valueless
basis of fertilizers too long; and paid
too much for 1t; 1t is time we learned
what to buy and how to buy it to adj
vantage.-EXchange.

The Fees in Early Spring.

In looking over colonies early in the
spring choose a warm, sunshiny day,
and be careful not to chill the brood
know just what you want, and do it
expeditiously, and close up the hive
again. If you have the bees packed in
chatf, do not be in a hurry to remove
the packing. as the bees spread the
brood and arrange matters for the tenn
perature the packing gives. and should
you remove the packing too early some
brood may be chilled and the colony
cannot make Roadway as rapidly.

v ASn|\GTON LETTER.
from our Regular corrcspondcntJ

Washington, April ~, 1903
A remarkable and significant de-
velopment in the political situation
has occurred this week, one of the lead
ing newspapers Of the country and
one that has always been regarded rs
strictly republican,, having published
"A series Of articles attacking President
Roosevelt and finally contrasting the
Presidents administration with the
presumptive conduct OF eN President
Cleveland, to the credit Of the latter
The most significant feature OF the
situation, however, is the fact that
the publication referred to il practi
cally governed, in 80 far AZ its editor.
ial policy is concerned, by Mr., j, Pier
pont Morgan and the interests with
which the financitr is allied At first
blush some of the more tiinid souls in
the republican ranks were startled by
these ATTACKS on the President but
when it became evident that their
whole animus was due to the Presi-
dents action in connection with the
Anthracite coal strike. his attitude
towards organized labor aud his en-
forcement of the Sherman antitrust
law against the Norther.i Securities
Company, even the timid ones took
heart and concluded that opposition
on such grounds could not but
strengthen the President in the high
estimation in which he il held by the
people.
A prominent member OF the Senate
who has the Presidents interests ut
heart said to your correspondent to,
day, 1.-THE situation in n nutshell is
this. The President has refused to be
dictated to by the Wall st interests he
has regarded it as his duty to protect
the people from the greed of corpor-
ate wealth by enforcing the laws
which the people, through their duly
elected Congress, have placed on the
statutes. He has recognized that the
workingman il factor In the pros
perity of the country and that the
laborer Is entitled TO his hire No ar.
raignment of the President on those
grounds can inlure him. MIR. Roose-
welt will not only be the next candi.
date of the republican party but he
will be elected by the largest MAJOR
ity ever given presidential candi
date. He is an honest, fearless, en-
ergetic man and that il precisely the
type OF man the people want in
the White House.
Ex- Representative Mercer of Ne
braska "blew into Washington" this
week. to use his own words, and ex-
pressed himself in terms of the utmost
enthusiasm regarding the President.
He said at is perfectly ridiculous to
think or talk OF any other candidate
The people Of the West are for him to
man. He speaks their language,
thinks their thoughts and puisues
their methods He is straight from
the shoulder and that is what the
western people love. Any man with
half an eye for politics can see tina,
democrats and republicans will outvy
each other in getting to the polls to
vote for him.
