Early Pigs Cost Less.
rNaI,ro clio Far yr,ar

The cost of the pig, in growing it
successfully into a matured porker, Is
the topic of interest to the hog raiser
This involves the questions Of when
the pig should be narrowed TO most
profitably meet this end. The summer
pig, the fall pig and the winter. pig
all have their drawbacks and him

end or the other of their existence.
The American Swineherd in discuss
Ing this subject refers to the following
claim made by the Indiana Expert
ment Station that pigs farrowed In
March. April and May is the proper
time for profitably converting them
into pork. 1t Is late enough to usually
avoid the severe weather of the sea-
son. and enables them to be grown
during the summer season and fatten-
ed before winter sets in.
It offers an opportunity to have the
pigs do their growing during that sea-
son OF the year when grass or pasture
is in condition to be used. They can
actually be reared at less cost than
during any other period of the year.
It Is possible TO plant green spring
crops that viii furnish cheap feed for
the litters and sows and do much
toward promoting the development of
bone and flesh.

Lambs Dropped in Pastures.

When lambs are dropped in pas
lures even after the month of May
is ushered in, 1t is by no means GER
tain that they will always fare well
In the absence of close attention from
the owner. All will be we'll when
once the lamb has passed the first
day or two, and has become vigorous
and strong. But there may be trouble
at an earlier period. Ewes may have
trouble in lambing. and the presence
Of the shepherd al, such a time may
help to save the life of the dam as
well as of her offspring. In the case or
twins one lamb may wander away
and get lost and may perish from
hunger To meet such exigencies and
to provide for tnem the shepherd
ought to visit the flock morning and
night. and df he can do so at noon, so
much the better. If the field is far
away, he ought to ride to save time
and muscle. 1t Il; well. however, to
try to have the pasture not too dis
tant at such time. as In case OF
storm 1t would take too long to get
the flock under shelter. That 1T should
be SO provided III such seasons is
greatly important. One cold rain may
bring much disaster to flock Of young
lambs. It may do more harm to them
than would many days OF dry cold,
while the lambs are In the sheds. And
after such rains. II they lie on the cold
ground, much harm may result While,
therefore, many things may be said In
favor OF having lambs come on grass

same IL they are to prosper.

The Republican is in favor of all
the interurban roads the city can get.
We can stand them. So can the farm

ers sof a certain region In northern
Georgia to consider the advisability
of assisting and encouraging the build
ing of a railway into their midst. A

Why sows Eat Their Pics.

There are two causes for this. One
is being kept in close confinement ard
with a lack of proteine food; also of
earthly salts which the brood SOW gets
in summer when in the pasture. When
the pigs are born her appetite for meat
and mineral matter is such that 1t gets
the better of her and she eats the pigs
to satisfy it. A few slices of salt pork,
will as a rule, satisfy this. The other
cause is "a passive arrangement.
Passing thru labor so affects the brain
that the SOW is unaccountable for her
acts-simply crazy. This is not un-
common among even humans, and all
animals. A mare will disown and kick
her colt to death; a cow will kill her
calf: eve will butt her own lamb to
death and a SOW will destroy her pigs
as if they were enemies. AS a rule. this
is only temporary, due to nervous de-
rangeinent An ounce dose of hydrate
of cl1loral given to mare or COW will
generally quiet her and the motherly
instinct will revive. To a SOW give from
one to two drains and repeat in two
hours IL necessary.-C. D. Smead, v.

INDICTMENT AND POLITICS.

The indictment OF Ed c. Brown, the
Sheldon banker, for Irregularities con-
nected with the failure OF his Sheldon
bank Is another criminal proceeding
that will have its influence upon poll
tics. Brown is at present member of
the Iowa railroad commission and had
Intended to seek denomination at the
second state republican convention this
summer. There are four other candi-
dates getting ready to capture the same
nomination hence the Indictment of
Brown by a grand jury will change the
political aspect Of this contest very ma
terialiy.
Politicians thruout Iowa have heard
mntterings of the charges set out in the
Indictment so that the action of the
grand jury was not altogether sur
prise Brown, however, kept on with
his campaign so that no one could tell
but that something might turn UP to
clear him of suspicion. Had he been
able to vindicate his actions in that
bank failure he would unquestionably
have been the most formidable candi-
date In the DIST He had a strong fol-
lowing in northwest Iowa and would
have appealed strongly to the sympath-
les Of business men had his record
been clear.
With Brown out of the race the polit-
teal fortunes OF N. S. Ketchum of Mar
shalltown have risen several hundred
points. Ketchuan is the best known
and the leading candidate of all those
remaining. There is hardly county in
Z Iowa in which he has not got personal
friends among politicians. He is pre-
e1ninently the business mems candidate,
having been a large shipper all his life.
IL last yea. was the year for the farmer
candidate and THE year before belonged
to the lawyer candidate this year
should certainly be Ketchum's. The
second term claim of Browns will not
stand in his way. The manner of
Browns retirement Is regretted great
ay by all his friends but since he is re-
tired the friends OF Ketchum are en-
couraged to believe that the situation
has been rendered much more favorable
for the Marshall county candidate.

RAPE PASTURE.
TDakota E'a rrper

AS tile season for sowing rape pas
ture for hogs and sheep is at hand,
the following experiments may be OIL
interesa to prospective growers.
During the past ten years mum
Der of valuable experiments have been
conducted in this country along THIS
line. at the Ontario experimental
farm in 1890 some extensive trials
were conducted in feeding lambs on
rape. One acre of rape sustained IL
lambs for two months. A lot OF gu
lambs were kept on Els acres of rape
for twenty-five days. During that time
they increased in weight $50 pounds,
or an average weekly gain per head ot
1872 pounds. Another lot OF six lambs
were kept AZ days on the sixth or IA
acre, and conclusions were drawn that
one acre would have pastured SO Two
months and made 1856 pounds or nut
ton.
The Michigan station fed 12S lambs
on Is acres of rape for seven and a
half weeks. with a total gain OF 2,s9o
pounds An estimate made from this
experiment would indicate that one
acre would pasture nine lambs seven
weeks and produce an increase OF
202.5 pounds of mutton.

he was quite unable to tell from the

Breeding Horn.s on tho Farm.

I.
In improving horses on the farm
that is to say, when they are bred on
the same, the principle which governs
breeding in Other. lines should apply
there also. What we mean more par
ticularly is this. that the farmer should
fix upon that breed Of horses which he
prefers to breed from. He should then
breed his mares to some of the best
specimens OF that breed that can be
found When the female progeny are
ready to breed, the same system should
be adopted, and thus he should keep
on thru successive generations. 1t
would only be a few years till the AMI
mails thus bred would be practically
just as good for work as those purely
bred. 1t would not. of course, be pos
sible to get them recorded, but they
would bear so close resemblance to
tons of such breeding that experts
could not tell which were and which
were not pure-bred without very care
fully examining The pedigree.
We have no doubt whatever that II
horses were thus bred on any farm
they would soon begin to attract at
tention from outsiders. 1t would not
he long before 1t would be known that
horses of such 0, class were being bred
there, consequently there would be nc
difficulty in finding market for the
same. If number of farmers could
agree to such line OF breeding, then
in time that neighborhood would be-
come noted for that line of production.
BUYERS would be drawn from various
quarters and the outcome would be
more satisfactory to all concerned. This
question is certainly of sufficient Inn
portance to cause at least a limited
number in any neighborhood to try to
agree upon a certain basis Of action
with reference to 1t.
If this plan Of breeding horses were
generally followed, how different It
would be from that which Is usually
practiced! At present the breeding is
