CORN FEED PROBLEM.
1t Cannot Be Any Longer by
Swine Raisers Who Arc Try
ing to Do Well.

A dozen years ago the farmers Of the
corn belt that were engaged ia the
raising of hogs would consider no other
Ieed for swine except corn. They be-
gan to feed the pigs corn about as
soon as they were weaned and contin-
ued to feed them corn till they were.
butchered. Corn was very cheap then
except in occasional years when there
was a partial corn crop failure. In
those days corn was not only cheap, but
freight rates were high and it cost a
great deal to get the corn to market.
There was a saving to the producer in
marketing his corn crop in the shape of
pork. Since that time there has been
a great change in the position of corn
relative to oats and other grains. There
are many commercial uses to which
corn is now put that formerly were not
dreamed of. 1t now seems likely that
the general average of corn prices will
rise from year to year, responsive to the
increasing demand and the restrictive
area OF country in which corn can be
grown. The future is likely to see the
oat and barley crops more largely used
:. 81 NS>N
in the finishing of swine than is
dreamed of at the present time. At my
rate we are about at the end of feed
ing pigs on a whole corr diet. We can
not now figure out a profit with such a
course of feeding. For a long time vet
hogs that do not follow cattle will be
nnlsneu on corn, but We a expect
to see that finishing period grow con-
stantly shorter. Men will also realize
that a change TO clover and grain other
than corn will give them some benefits
IN the way OF increased stamina in their
swing as we'll as more f%ecundity. The
corr feed problem is one that cannot
be ignored longer, but is in course of
solution by every swine raiser that is
trying to make money.-Farmers' Re-
view.

steamfns the Corn staIks.

Corn stalks may be made more pala-
table by cutting them fine and steaming
them. They should be cut fresh every
week. Put enough for the weeks feed
into a tight box and pour over them
boiling water. Shut the cover tight and
let steam for several hours, when they
will be soft and readily eaten. The
addition Of a little meal and middlings
will not hurt them. The great adj
vantage OF steamed food is in making
hard parts tender SO that they will be
more easily digested and more readily
|eaten.-Farm and Home.

Discardine Poor Farm Animal.

IOOr rarn Animals.
One of the hardest things for a Young
breeder to do is to discard animals that
are not up to the standard for breeding
purposes. There are always buyers for
pure bred animals at a fair price. 1t
matters not if the animal is inferior. II
will often command enough to tempt
the breeder to part with it, Here is
where a great many breeders tear down
their reputation while they are trying
to build it up. Inferior breeding stock
sold to somebody has lived, to vex many
a man who thought he was getting rid
|of his culls to advantage. 1t requires
courage to send pure bred animals to
slaughter, but it pays when they are
not the kind to keep. The safe and
eventually the profitable plan is to sell
good animals and keep better ones and
breed best ones.-Thomas McFarlane, in
Farmers Review.

/ overheard the other day one of
Americas pretty girls remark that she
never drank tea because she thought
it was very indigestible and that it was
bad for the complexion" writes Mrs.
Hart Davis in the Chicago Journal
Now, this is a great mistake that most
of the American women make. The
best way to show the fallacy is to draw
attention to some of the prettiest and
most beautiful girls in the world, who
are found in Ireland, where they drink
tea nearly all day long and have the
most peachlike compilations of any
girls known. Again, if you go to Eng
land, Scotland or Wales everywhere
you will see fresh, rosy-eheeked girls,
and it would be quite an exception to
see a sallow or pale-faced woman un-
less she is a consumDtive or suffering
from some dire disease. Yet all these
girls drink large quantities of tea every
day.
In Russia, where the girls have very
rosy cheeks, as you doubtless are
aware, large quantities of tea are con-
sumed by all those who can afford to
buy it. To proceed to the Orient, the
Indian and Ceylon nautch and other

Social success in Arizona no longer
depends on ones ability to play draw
or stud poker. From Prescott to Bis
bee it is stuff, morning, noon and
night, says the Prescott correspondent
of the ST. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Where the game came from, who in
troduced it and what it's antecedents
were no one seemed to remember. For
two years stuff has been growing in
popularity every day, and the man
who cannot play it leads lonely life.
Stuff is cheaper for the stranger
than poker, for, as a rule, it Is not
PLAYED for money. Drinks for the
crowd is the usual penalty for losing a
game, and strangers are supposed to
buy the drinks, in any event. Like all
card games which attain sudden popu-
larity. stuff is easily explained and
quickly learned. In spite of its sim
plicity great skill can be developed
and Arizona holds crackerjack players.
Ordinarily a game takes about hf-
teen minutes. In Pearce, where II Is
now the fashion to drink whisky with
beer chasers, four drinks an hour are
regarded as none too many.
When experts get at the cards slufr
is liable to be a long drawn out propo-
sition. At Tucson they have record
of game which lasted seven hours.
One must not think, however, that
the players waited that long for a
round of drinks. Every fifteen min
utes or so they cut the cards and the
| low man bought.
1t is not possible to lay hands on
written or printed set of rules of the
game, but half the men in the Terri
tory can tell one how to play. The
/ rules differ in minor particulars in diff
/ ferent camps, but this is the way it Is
/ generally played:
/ Stuff calls for a deck of thirty-six
cards, the cards from deuce to five
spot, inclusive, being thrown out.
There are 120 points in the game.
Aces count IL, tens 10, kings 4, queens
/ 3 and jacks 2.
Two, three or four may play, but in
any case only three full hands are
dealt. The dealer remains out when
four play.
The cards are dealt one at a time
in four hands until after twelve are so
dealt; after to three hands to the end
of the deck. This gives three hands Of
