An Experience with Hogs.

The Palouse hog is certainly en-
titled to carry an extra curl in his
tail these days, for at better than
seven cents per pound he is a ver-
liable gold mine.
Last fall the Cloverdale Ranch,
having an 800-acre field fenced with
hogtight wire, invested in 1919 head
of pigs, paying 1912 for the num-
Der. The hogs were run in the
fstubble, all the feed given them
being $50 sacks of wheat to finish
up the fattening process. The COM
pany has still Is head left, and has
made sales from the herd amount
ing to $1703.O5.

EVERY product of the Palouse
farm is now selling at good price.
The high price for hay is not found
altogether in tedious winter, but
with the heavy Importation of stock
into the country during the past
few years, the home consumption is
much heavier than usual. The
growth of the home market is re-
sponsible in a great measure for the
strong prices now obtained for pro-
.duce. This is especially true of
butter, eggs, vegetables, etc.

A Question of "Nerve."

The hotel barber shop has its little
joke as we'll as any other part of the
house, says the Detroit Free Press.
In the tonsorial establishment of
one of the downtown hostelries yester-
day a drummer who knew all the
doctors was being operated upon. Near
by a swell barber shop had been set
UP in business, with plate glass mir
rors, mahogany furniture and the like,
and was making a great splash for
business. ..4 .,e.
Flows the new barber shop getting
on next door?" asked the drummer
Of one of the BARRIERS. -. ....
"Oh, $685." was the reply. "How-

he added, just to show, that though
there may be buffers in competi-
ton is the life of trade.
"I suppose you do get a few still,
who don't see the other place." re-
marked the drummer.
BY this time the barber was sar-
castle.
Eyes, indeed" he said. "They wan

yourself, you know-and I suppose af-

enough to go out"

nisnrming the Gods.

among the Eastern nations the be-
ginning of school life is a critical time
for the child" says Beatrice c. Will
cox, in Everybody's Magazine for jan
uary. 1.-THE priest or astrologer must
be consulted to choose a lucky day
Every precaution must be taken to
avert the jealousy of the gods, whose
malice is especially directed against a
fine boy.
1.-THE Chinese father who adores his
son will take the utmost pains to con-
vince the powers of the air that the
boy is of no account. The child may
be given a despicable name, like flea,
or Chu-tze, a pig, or more insulting
still, he may be given a girls name
The boy may be started off to school
wearing a girls dress and one ear
ring, and if the deception is complete
this will be the most effectual of all
for even the gods do not care for girls
in China.
1.-THE Japanese schoolboy wears
hanging from his belt a little red bag,
containing a brass tag, with his name
and his parents name and address
upon it. He must have his paper UNI
brella and his fan, and, in a gay bag
upon his arm, is a jar of rice for his
luncheon. This quaint little fellow has
probably made his offering at his own
private shrine to. Tenjinsen, the god
of penmanship.
when the Hindoo boy has found
an suspicious day to begin school, he
is taken to the god of learning, Saras-
vati. Here the little supplicant pre-
sents his offerings of rice and betel-
nuts, and repeats the letters of the
alphabet after the priest. Thus he is
entered into the ways of knowledge
in thesvery. presence of the god"
