they secured. The miners. on the other

regarding pay are satisfactory to them.

Bacon Breeds of Hogs.

Several years ago considerable was
being written about the TamwOrths as
the only breed that would make good
bacon hogs 1t Is doubtless true that
this particular strain Is best suited for
the purpose. but, on the other hand. 1t
is question if it ever paid any farm
er to raise them exclusively. True,
there are specialists who have made
money in catering to the fancy bacon
market, but they found it profitable
only after long years Of experimenting
and fully learning the secret Of Feed
ing to produce certain results. With
the average farmer. who raises what
pork he needs for home consumption
and perhaps dozen head besides. it is
doubtful if it pays him to experiment
much with breeds, beyond getting some
strain that will give him the best re-
turns in weight at the smallest expense
for feed. If one is raising swine with
an idea Of selling the progeny when
young to other farmers, then consid-
cradle care should be taken to secure a
breed for which there is a demand. and
then to breed the animals on the plan
that will give strong, healthy and pure
bred young, and in this way work up u
reputation. 1t must be admitted how
ever, that there is demand for fancy

WHY Don't the Boys Ride?

Why is not something more being
done to encourage horseback riding
among the boys on the farm. COmpar-
atively few farm boys can ride grace
fully and with ease. They get astride
the old mare, and jog along to and from
the stable and pasture, and call it rid
ing a horse 1t is as far from real gen.
uine horseback riding as day is from
night.
No class of horses sells better on a
market to-day than first class, well
broken saddle horses. There are deal
ers, who make a business Of training
these horses for the purchaser. Why
could not the farmers boy do this
work instead. If he were given some in
formation as to what the requirements
of Il good saddle horse We're, and how
to train such horse for riding, 1t
would mean money in the farmer S
pocket.-Farm and Home.

LOVING WORDS.

Loving words will cost but little,
Journeying up the hill of life;
But they make the weak and weary
Stronger, Drawer for the strife.
DO you count them only trifies?
What to earth are sun and rain?
Never was a kind word wasted,
Never one was said in vain.
When the cares of life are many,
And its burdens heavy grow,
Think of weak ones close beside you
If you love them, tell them so.
What you count of little value
Has an almost magic power.
And beneath their cheering sunshine
Hearts will blossom like a flower.
So. as up life's hill we journey,
Let us scatter all the way
Kindly words, for they are sunshine
In the dark and cloudy day.
Grudge no loving word or action
AS along through life you go.
There are weary ones around YOU
If yon love them, tell them so.

How to Cond CT a St ok Sale.

of all kinds. particularly of the beer
breeds, has encouraged the sale Of
such stock by public auction, the prices
being quite satisfactory. These i've

ence lays great stress on preparing ami
mails especially for thu sale. Even If
an animal is we'll bred has a good out
line and o,her requirements, if its con
ditiOn is Unsatisfactory iii any way, its
good qualities will be overlooked. The
cattle must be fed into good flesh and
must be we'll groomed and thoroughly
cleaned. This expert believes in judi
cious advertising as means Of prolnot-
ing a sale. He advises that the. sale he
held under cover in order to be prcpar-
ed for any kind Of weather. The con-
struction of temporary sheds of Il few
boards and props will make the buyers
comfortable. Before the sale begins,
coffee and sandwiches or food Of sim
liar kind. are passed around. Well
fed people make lively buyers. Finally
provide good auctOneer, one who
knows all about stock and pediyrees
and how to describe them to the best
advantage Good assistants should be
provided to handle the animals in the
