GREEN FOOD FOR PIGS.
English Farmer Gives His Ideas OF
How to Make Cheap and Ex-
celIent Pork.

A wrfSer in the London Live Stock
Journal who seems to be talking out of
his own experience, says:
Now, it is questionable whether
there is a better and cheaper way of
making pork than to grow field or two
Of rape, clover or grass and clover root
mixed, and run therein number of
strong young shotes during the summer
months. shutting them up for period
of from six to eight weeks in the au-
tumn and feeding them on some good
tattening food, when they will be ready
for the butcher. A pig should make good
pork. running from L to IL stone, in sew
an months from birth, it is asserted. In
no way can he do it better than on the
lines indicated Frame, bone and form
can be developed to perfection, and good
pasturage, combined with a daily feed
of grain food or milk and meal.
while good grass, clover or vetches
and clover make excellent pasture,
rape gives still better results. Pigs
thrive and feed on it amazingly A
farmer, a neighbor of mine, who keeps
herd of approximately 200 pigs, speaks
in the highest terms of rape as a green
food for them. 1t is useful crop in
other ways, as lambs do exceedingly we'll
on 1t.
1T would really appear that the sys-
tenn of grazing pigs could be extended
from its present narrow and restricted
limits with decided advantage. A field
or two of rape, clover. etc. for summer
pasturing, with, perhaps, an acre or so
of artichokes in addition. would we'll re-
pay cultivation where pigs are kept in
any numbers"

oriental; combined with blue or scarlet
cloth, very military though slightly
dramatic touch is gained, which is most
clear, colorless skin.
Moleskin is so far the fur fad Of the
season, just as squirrel was last year, and
is often seen combined with squirrel,
where ermine is shade too extravagant.
A very beautiful moleskin fiat cape is
entirely of scales of fur, the edge of each
circle having fringe Of point de venise
lace, very narrow.
Full lace ruchings edge the cape and
there is military trimming Of moleskin
chenille. A very fiat muff is of moleskin
scales, and the lower wide edge is fringed
with lace and chenille. A hat of moleskin
has a wide brim of crushed blue poppies,
with big white velvet bow resting on the
hair at the back.
A very odd fur tie is in fiat scarf
carefully fitted but not worn close about
the throat, and with graduated stole
fronts which reach the knees. Just where
the scarf would tie one side is slashed
and the other side drawn through just
as golf stock is managed at the back.
More often than not in the very dressy
fur sets chiffon is the foundation goods
rather than the trimming. A very deep
cape of corn colored chiffon is trimmed
with ruches of marigold taffeta with a
spiral design on the chiffon of narrow
cable bands. A cluster Of cable chenille
ends hang from sable clasp half way
to the knees.
The muff looks like section Of an
extremely fat banana. 1t is Of full
shocked chiffon edged with sable tails.

For n Bad Back.

Sabra, Montana, Oct. leth.-A great
many, men in this neighborhood used to
complain of pains in the back, but now
scarcely one can be found who has any
such trouble.
Mr.. Gottlieb Mill is largely responsible
for the Improvement, for it was he who
first of all found the remedy for this
Backache. He has recommended it to all
his friends and neighbors, and in every
case it has had wonderful success.
Mr.. Mill says:-
For many years l had been troubled
with my Kidneys and pains in the small
of my back. l tried many medicines but
did not derive any benefit until last fall,
when l bought a dozen boxes of Dodd's
Kidney Pills. After using them few
days l began to improve, my back quit
aching, and felt better and stronger all
around.
Il will keep them in the house right
along, for in my opinion they are the best
medicine in the market to-day, and if my
back should bother me again, l will use
nothing else"

"a man up in my country had melan-

SEVERE ROOT PRUNING.
System Has Many Advocates and Il
Especially Applicable Where
Climate Is Dry.

The advocates of severe root pruning
for trees being transplanted seem to
be increasing in number. According
to Luther Burbank this system is espe-
cially advantageous for planting in dry
climates In a recent issue of the
Rural New Yorker he says: Every
experienced nurseryman trims all the
small side roots off his nursery stock
before planting. This is a universal
custom, and in my experiments l have
found that seedlings and very young
trees should always be treated in this
way under all circumstances. young
seeding tree which has had its roots
cut off to within a few inches Of the
collar, and the top almost wholly re-
moved, will in all cases make far
better growth than the one planted
with all its roots, even If the top should
be removed. OF course 1t is nece essary
to remove the top in proportion to the
amount of roots removed, and, strange
as 1t may seem, it is especially neces-
sary to prune the roots short when
they are to be planted on land that has
little moisture near the surface. For
the trees having many side roots divide
their forces in starting in all directions
instead of making good. substantial

seeding will always proceed to do
Though of universal application. these
facts are especially applicable to dry
climates like California and Texas.

Joseph's coat was simple, modest ar
ticle of wearing apparel compared with
the medley of materials put together in
any sort of fur garment this season. The
most delicate evening wraps Of rose pet

heaviest fur collars for midwinter frosts

Fur hats and neckties are already too

Runcie Gives Interesting Test-
mony in General Wood Case

Washington, Nov. 2S.-The senate
committee on military affairs yester-
day heard Major James e. Runcie OF
Havana, probably the most important
witness that will be offered by the
opponents of General Wood, in an at
tempt to prevent his confirmation to
be major general. Major Runcie told
the committee of dinner at Santiago
de Cuba, attended by himself, when it
is alleged was planned the magazine
article attacking Major General Brooke
that has figured conspicuously in the
Wood case. Major Runci was stopped
more than once during he course of
his testimony and told to give nothing
but the facts of which ne had personal
knowledge. This did not exclude his
story of the dinner incident which re-
suited in the issue of subpoenas for
three other witnesses, among them
General Brooke.
In his testimony Major Runcie said
he acted as confidential adviser to
General Wood nearly two years and
that they lived together at Santiago.
