A reader wishes to know what to do
with wet land-land which during the
dry years was cropped and produced
large yields of corn and other cereals,
but which during the past two wet
years has gone back and is now a
wilderness Of noxious weeds. Thou
sands of men are in this fix all
through the prairie west. The best
thing to do. if one is able, is to tile
drain these tracts, when they will at
once become the most reliable and pro-
duct1ve acres on the farm. : If this for
any reason cannot be done, they should
be got into grass. preferably timothy,
just as soon as possible. Under nor
NAL conditions these lands are too wet
for cultivation and only during dry
years can they be worked. These lands
should be plowed just as soon. as pos
sible and be sown with rye by the mid
die Of September and seeded with tim

We are in receipt Of letter from a
successful hog raiser who claims to
have always been exempt from hog
cholera and attributes his exemption
to the providing Of the best sanitary
conditions for his pigs In the matter Of
food, shelter. bedding and yards, claim
ing that hog cholera Is as purely q
nth disease with the hog as is the
same disease with man. While we Sc
r1ously doubt II even the most immacu-
late sanitary conditions will in all
cases secure immunity from this trou-
ble, there is still so much to commend
in this method Of treatment that we
give our friends antidote. The hog is
not naturally a dirty animal If he is
given half a chance. The trouble Is
that most men will not give him a
