death and taxes, but that is not altogether
true. DR.. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption is a sure cure for all lung and
throat troubles. Thousands can testify
to that. Mrs. G. B. VanMetre, of Shep-
herdtown, W. Va, says II had a sever
case of Bronchitis and for a year tried
everything l heard of, but got no relief.

POULTRY
Predatory Animals.

Could a census be taken of the fowls
lost by the ravages of animals of prey
the results would be truly astonish-
ing In the newer settled sections OF
the country forest animals are so per
sistent in their attempts to get at the
poultry that the raising of chickens is
frequently discontinued. One would
hardly expect to hear of large losses
from the ravages of coons, weasels
and minks inside of the limits of Cook
county, Illinois, yet such losses are
frequently reported. The writer knew
of a neighbor who lost a big white
Leghorn cock. The animal had en-
tered the hen house at night, selected
the largest bird obtainable and had
carried it off, climbing a post and
walking along a board fence eight
feet high. Indications pointed to
coon as the mischief doer, but it was
not thought probable that coon was
in that vicinity. However, the next
day another neighbor shot a coon in
the ,neighborhood and the case was
proven.
Chicago suburb told the writer that
some wild animal had destroyed his
whole flock. He got through the wires
one night and killed a part of the
flock The man the next day made
everything secure, as he supposed;
but that night the animal dug a bur-
row under the walls of the house, got
in and killed the rest of the flock. A
weasel was suspected This goes to
show that a little precaution against

Fattening Hogs in Montana.

Bulletin 81 of the Montana station
says: Fattening hogs is most econssm-
ically accomplished by finishing in
thss pea lot or grain stubble. The
pigs should be turned on the peas as
soon as the pods are filled and the
peas begin to harden. If sufficient
pigs are used, say ten per acre, not
a pea will be wasted and even por
ton of the vines consumed. One acre
of peas, producing at the rate of 35
for Montana. will provide fattening
ration for ten 15G to 200 pound hogs
for from 40 to As days. Climatic con
ditions permit the pea harv esting by
pigs even as late as December /. This
is one of the easiest fattening meth
DDS now practiced in Montana. The
area over which peas can be grown
is very large and the time of forag
that the product need not all be mar
keted at one time. In order, however
to make the best use of forage condf
tions, winter litters must be raised
Pigs from spring litters do not reach
large consuming capacity soob
enough to take advantage of the early
forage. Both late fall and early
spring litters should be raised ir
order to get the most out of the food,
and the market conditions.

FROZE HER INTO SUBMISSION.
Woman Who Says She Was Tortured
Sues for DamaQes.


Because she wouldn't sign certain
paper that George Bailey wanted her
to sign, Mrs. Luella Mott of Scranton,
Pa, says she was locked up by Bailey
in the refrigerator of a dairy and
kept a prisoner until she signed it.
She began a suit for $4,000 damages
against Bailey.
1t was on Sept. IL, 1902, she says,
that Bailey demanded that she sign
the paper which he offered to her.
She refused to do and declares he
forcibly locked her up in a cold room
that was used for dairy purposes. He
told her she would have to remain
there until she signed it. The woman
had no means of securing assistance,
as she was as much prisoner as if
she were in dungeon cell. She re-
manned there, many hours, she says.
hoping that her jailer would release
her, but, she says, after she had been
half frozen and seeing no way to es-
cape. she signed the paper and was
released.
She was ill for a long time, she
says, and her physicians had great
difficulty in restoring her.

Rotation a Local Question.

Crop rotation is subject that has
engaged the attention and study of
the very best talent among agricul
tural investigators and practical farm
ers for great length of time in all
OF the older parts of the world whers
agriculture has reached its highest
state of development, says Professor
E. E. ChilcOtt, in a bulletin of the
South Dakota Experiment Station II
We could appropriate the results OF
their investigations and experience we
would find a rich store-house of facts
in the literature of the subject, par
ticularly the records of the long line
of experiments carried on by Sir j. b,
Eawes and Sir ]. H. Gilbert at
Rothemsted, England. 1t would be
almost impossible TO overestimate the
value to the whole civilized world OF
the work of these investigators, nor
do we undervalue the work done by
the army of agricultural investigators
connected with the United States De
partment of Agriculture and the va
rious state Experiment Stations. But
unfortunately, in the matter of crop
rotation their results have value 70
us in only a very broad and general
way. This is essentially a local prob
lem and can be solved only under To-
cal conditions. Nor is this matter OF
locality confined to a comparison OF
this state as whole with other states
or countries. Each of the several sec
tions of the state has it's local condi
tions, peculiar to itself, and in the III
innate analysis every farm will have
its peculiar conditions, and every
farmer his individual problems ts
solve.

Points on Pasteurization.

Points on PaSteurization.
By pasteurization we understand
the application of heat to such a de-
gree that most of the bacteria are de
stroyed; the temperature generally
made use of ranges between 140 to
1S5 degrees F., said NJ. Mortenson at
dairy convention. This should not
be confused with sterilization, by
which we understand complete de-
struction of bacteria; this may be oc-
complished either by application of
heat or by the use of chemicals.
Every buttermaker at present has be-
come so familiar with pasteurizat1on
that he can without difficulty pasteur-
ize milk for starters, but pasteuriza-
ton of milk and cream for city sup
ply and especially cream for butter
making, requires more experience and
very careful work. The cooked flavor
which milk acquires after it has been
heated to a temperature of 150 de-
grees F. must be prevented when milk
is to be sold for direct consumption
The consumer generally objects to
the cooked favor; only few under
stand that that flavor serves as
guarantee that this milk is a pure,
healthy food. The Wisconsin Expert
ueHL SIdIlOn recommends luGI tAS
milk be heated to 140 degrees F. for
thirty minutes; that does not produce
the cooked flavor and it does not af-
feet the rising of the cream as do
higher temperatures. Pasteurization
of milk and cream for direct con-
sumption is continually growing in
favor. AS to the Gigestibility of pas
teurized milk compared with raw milk
opinions are divided. Experiments
along that line of work have been
conducted at the Maryland Expert
ment station, where they arrived at
the conclusion that raw milk is more
easily digested when fed to calves
than either pasteurized or cooked
milk; they also corresponded with
physicians in charge of childrens' hos
pitals and the majority of them favor
the use of raw milk for infants, when
the milk was known to be in perfect
condition, but favored pasteurized
milk under ordinary conditions. DR..
Fleischmann together with DR.. Au-
gust Morgen and other European
scientists conducted experim ents
which lead to the conclusion that the
nitrogenous matter in milk which has
been submitted to high temperature
is somewhat more d.gestible than in
fresh milk.

SHARP STICKS ALONG TRAIL.
How Philippine Head Hunters Retard
an Enemy's Advance.

Capt. c. E. Nathorst, chief of con-
stabulary in Lepanto-Bontoc, in a re-
port to the War department tells the
methods of warfare practiced by the
Philippine head hunters.
Capt Nathorst headed an expedition
in search of five IgorotIe criminals.
The way led through dense forests.
and as they a. reached Barlig they
encountered thousands of sharpened
bamboo sticks, which the savages had
stuck in the ground at an angle of As
degrees. The sticks were the thick
est where the trails were down hill.
They were hidden in the thick grass.
and the feet and legs of the officers
were badly lacerated.
The head hunters fed and the town
was burned, while the savages threw
spears at the soldiers, but without re-
suit. Capt. Nathorst got his little
force out with much difficulty, for the
natives studded all the trails with
more of the sharpened sticks.
