LIFE IN THE GERMAN ARMY.
Severe Sentences for Cruel Officers
as Well as for the Men Who
Insult Them.

The Vorwarts, of Berlin, states that
since the beginning of the year 159 sem
fences have been passed on German Off
GERS and non-commissioned officers for
ill-treating soldiers. The punishments
inflicted amounted in all to SO years and
nine months Imprisonment.
On the other hand, according to Das
Tageblatt, a court-martial at Heidelberg
Recently sentenced four men of the Sec
ond Baden Grenadier regiment to ten
wears. six years and four years inn
nrisonment, respectively, and to be ex-
pelled from the army for having, when
off duty, during the recent maneuVers,
insulted a sergeant who had made him.
self unpopular.
In view of the fact that the military
court of appeals has just reduced the
sentence of Naval Cadet Hussener, the
comrades of the convicted Grenadier
soldiers concluded that officers and men
were not treated alike. When the re-
suit of the trial was announced. the
crowd outside the court ironically
cheered for Hussener
The Heidelberg press declares that
both the civil population and the gar
rison are indignant at the severity
shown by the court. 1t adds: "The
majesty of military discipline has risen
on the Heidelberg horizon in blood-red
hues.'' =, - -,

Economy in Poultry Foods,

There should be no waste in the keep
ing of poultry, and as fowls are partial
to nearly all kinds of food they will
search for and secure much that would
not be available for large stock. There
are many articles on a farm that 90 to
waste. such as shaken wheat in the stub
ble-field, hay-seeds, grass, etc., but
which are converted by the hens into
eggs, especially in spring, summer and
fall. This is source of profit which
some do not consider. and when the cost
of eggs is estimated it is but right to
credit the hens with that which they
save. A flock of fowls will pick I'D an
enormous amount of waste food in a
year, including injurious insects, and on
some farms the receipts from eggs are
almost clear profit, no expense in their
production being incurred.-Farm and

WHEN HOGS ARE LOUSY.
Systematic Warfare OR Else
Suffer Big Loss.

No farmer should even tolerate the
presence Of lice on lis hogs. What is
the sense of feeding 50-cent corn to a
lot of measly lice, which not only live
on its substance after the animal has
digested it, but that cause him such
uneasiness that he cannot properly di-
gest food? No hog can get as fat as it
should when it is lousy. The conscious
ness that it had lice would keep it
from properly digesting and assimilat-
ing its food.
Farms that are clean of lice should
be kept clean. Where hogs On a farm
are lousy, no pains or expense should
be spared in getting rid of the lice be-
fore the winter season. Every farm
should have a dipping tank and it will
pay to run hogs through it once a
month even if they are not lousy; much
more SO if they are.
To rid a farm of lice is not an easy
matter. 1t is not matter of a day
or weeks, but dipping, keeping clean
beds, and whitewashing pens that will
in time get rid of them. Where farms
are clean every precaution should be
taken to prevent the introduction of
this nasty pest. You need to watch
carefully the boar or the brood SOW
that you purchase this fall.
We are sorry to say that some breed
ers' farms are lousy. No breeder
should permit a hog to leave the farm
unless he is quite sure that it is free
from vermin. 1t should always injure
the reputation of a breeder to be
caught sending out lousy hog. There
fore the buyer should always examine
carefully and see that the new arrival
is clean, and if lousy ne should at
once register a complaint against the
breeder. That is the way to reform the
bad methods that prevail among the
more careless sort of breeders.-Rural

Peas and Beans for Horses.

Beans and other leguminous seed
resemble the cereal grains in having
a low water content. In Europe horse
beans are common feeding stuff for
horses. Though such feeds are known
to be useful and valuable, they are sci.
dom given to horses in the United
States and few, if any, tests have been
made with them at the American ex-
pertinent stations. Muntz found that
beans were quite thoroughly digested
even when fed in such large quantities
as Ia. pounds per day. According to
an English authority, this amount
would prove harmful, and five pounds
of beans per day or slightly larger
quantity of peas is considered all it is
desirable to feed.

NOTES FOR SHEPHERDS.

Put lambs in uniform lots. They
will feed together better, will fatten
more evenly and sell to better advan-
tage.
1t does not pay to keep a eve after
she begins to show signs of age unless
she is an especially good breeder and
mother.
Pick out the lambs and wethers that
you intend to turn off and put them
by themselves where they can have a
fattening feed.
Have the ewes gaining in flesh at
mating time. Better results can be
looked for in this way than if the ewes
are thin and half hearted.
, Every flock master should have q
standard of excellence and keep this
in mind in culling his flock. This is
the only way in which to improve the

The value of good, succulent pasture
for swine cannot be easily overesti-
mated. At our farm during the recent
past we inclosed number of growing
swine in a rape pasture. We drove
down in the same well to water some
IL or IA feet below the surface. A
trough was furnished and the water
pumped into the same from day to
day. The rape was strong and Wig
orous, thus furnishing plenty of shade
for the swine. They were not given
any other food for several weeks, and
yet they appeared 10 grow and thrive

WHY THE HOGS ROOT.
Its Theif Nature to Dig UP tho soi1
But They Can BE Broken
@.--- of the Habit.

Many of our foremost hog growers
believe if hog is properly fed on a
variety OF nourishing food it will have
no inclination to root, though some
now we have doubts about this apply
ing TO all hogs. Forrest Henry, of Min
nesota, is certainly a most successful
hog man, and for years has grown
them In large numbers, but he says his
hogs never root, and asks all doubling
Thomases to inspect his five and ten
year-old pastures, and assures us that
no signs of roofing can be found. Nor
are any artificial means employed to
prevent them from doing so, other than
proper feeding. A writer in Blooded
Stock answers the question, What
makes pigs root?" as follows:
1T is the hogs nature to root, and
nature has provided them with not
only the propensity, but the imple-
ments to indulge it. AS the wants OF
the animal are supplied without root
ing, the roofing portion of the pig be-
comes less suitable to the purpose, as
all the improved breeds are shortening
up in the nose and snout Hogs root
for worms and tuDcrs or grass roots
These not only aid as ration of main
tenance but as a regulation and condi-
toner of the system The desire to
root at the present time is a symptom
usually that the stomach demands
something that it is not receiving
Hogs that are fed on dry corn or grain
feed develop this desire for roofing
Constipation is another cause for root
ing, as the hog endeavors to secure
that which will relieve it. To prevent
this condition we would feed plenty OF
charcoal or wood ashes, also little
oil meal, to get them into proper con-
dlt1on. An animal that forms the
habit of roofing will root regardless OF
demands. 1t is as hard to break them
Ct the habit as it is the chewing OF
'abacco in the human race, and the
Ialy preventive is some system of ring
ing to prevent the use of the snout."
Selection of the breeding animals has
probably had much to do with the
shortening up of the nose. A short
lever is stronger than a long one, and
the short-nosed hog can demonstrate
that the shortening up process has by
no means deprived him of the ability
to turn the soil or anything else up
side down.-Prairie Farmer.

BETHSAIDA.
A Tale Of the Time of the Caesars-By
Malcolm Dearborn, Author
of ELfOnel ArdOno

Malcolm Dearborn, Author
of "Lionel Ardon."
This story covers an interesting period,
that of the brutal TiberiuS Caesar and the
trial and death of Christ. There are two
scenes; in which the Saviour figures, as he
is being led 10. execution, and the effect his
presence produces on the two chief per-
sonages of the story is graphically described.
.Tne hero, Aristarchus, is Roman noble
of great wealth. His father, Petronius, has
been doomed to death by order of Augustus
Caesar, whom he had Internationally Of
tended. On his last night on earth, while
Petronius was looking from the roof Ct his
palace, ne witnessed strange light in the
heavens, 1t rose, paused, vibrated, then
Syria.
While he was still gazing at it, a slave ap-
proaches and announces to him the birth Of
a son. The Roman marvels, and at once as
sociates the wondrous light in the heavens
with the birth Of his son. The light, of
course, was the star of Bethlehem, pro-
claiming the birth Of Christ, whose influence
over Petronius' son makes up the main in
cidents of the story. That night Petronius
dies by his own hand to avoid the ignomin-
ious death planned for him by Augustus.
.Aristarchus. grown to manhood, becomes
disguised with the materialism and vapld
luxury Of Rome, and is, moreover, involved
AL u uoLlCl Win LUIGI uuiih INV "a vi
latter's drunken orgies. He flies Rome, and
turns Eastward in his course. There he
learns of the strange fame of the "Naza-
rene," whom he forwith desires to see. His
wish is granted by sight of Jesus as he is
being led to execution. The effect upon the
Roman is intense; its revolutionlzes his
whole life.
The heroine, Bethsaida, who gives name
to the story. is maiden of humble birth, but
of strange character and commanding beau
ty. Her father has trained her to be dane
ing girl at the court of Plate. She, too, sees
Christ as he is being led to death, and the
effect wrought causes her to plan fight
from the influence of Plate and his court.
Chance brings about meeting between her
and Aristarcnus, and their mutual expe-
riences in the encounter with Christ form q
bond between the strangely assorted pair,
whose training and environment had been
SO foreign to one another.
The alternate bursts of tyranny and kindii-
ness that distinguish Plate, whose love for
his wife, Claudia, despite his infdelity to
her, is his one saving trait, make an engag-
ing study. Claudia herself viii, doubtless,
appeal to many readers as the most loveable
character in the book. Her justice, religious
sympathy and devotion are well depicted.
Tie tone of the book is that of unquestion-
ing belief in the miraculous birth and mis-
sion of Christ.

demurred at first, but finally consented and
was measured for a fine pair. Shortly aft
erward he received bill for So, just about
three times as much as he is accuSt omed to
pay for footwear. He looked at the docu-
ment gravely for minute, wrote across the
face of it: 'Colect from Shevin; he's re-
sponsible," remailed it to the sender and
beard nothing more about the matter.
