skin Of a Good Beef steer.

An active, healthy circulation Of blood
and active digestion and assimilation
Of steer are indicated BY the charac-
ter of. the skin and hair, says n. r.
Smith Of the Nebraska experiment sta.
ton. The outer skin Is a continuation
Of the inner skin which constitutes the
stomach and 7intestines. II the outer
skin Is dry and harsh. lacking in pli-
ableness, we may expect also a poorly
nourished inner skin. a soft, pliable
skin, covered with thick messy
growth Of soft fine hair, oily in appear
ance, is almost certain indication Of
actiYedigestton and assimilation OF food.
Drawing the skin between the thumb
and foreinger is the sufest way Of deter
mining Its handling quality. In buying
steers for the feed lot, however, this Is
not often possible because Of the tmid-
ity Of the animal. A feeder Of long ex-
perience learns to associate q bright,
healthy coat Of luxuriant hair with
gaining capacity. He learns to avoid
the skin which has the appearance Of
being drawn tightly over the body.
These are qualities which can be OBJ
served by the eye. sss 80

Mr.. Justice Butler objected to Its pro-

Judge again interposed his authority In
these emphatic words: A4a
Sit down, MT. Erskine. Know your
duty or shall be obliged to make you
know it." 100 Z
Me. Erskine, with equal warmth, re-
piled: Il know my duty as well rs your

The Judge was silent, and the advo-
cate persisted in his questions.

AN INDIAN JOKER.

ktcktngberg's Poser, Which DR.. Rose
Made No Attempt to Answer.
cit is notorious fact that there are
but few humorists among the many
thousands Of Indians in this country,
and therefore regard it as distinc-
ton to have enjoyed the friendship of
red man who was wag In every
sense Of the word" observed former
member of congress from Ohio in con-
versation with a friend.
"The wag to whom refer was
known as Kickingberg and was a
Kowa. He was fine, handsome and
tall specimen of Indian manhood. He
and myself became fast friends and
often dined together
II recall an incident in which Kick
ingberg played part 1t was an i'm
portant conference between DR.. Rose
Of Philadelphia and a delegation of
K1owas and was held almost within
the shadow Of Fort Sill. In the course
OF his remarks DR.. Rose urged the
red man to follow in the steps Of the
Industrious white man-to get piece
Of land, till it, raise a family and be-
come citizen of whom the community
might be proud. At the conclusion Of
his remarks DR.. Rose announced that
he was willing to be Intercepted.
'Kickingberg took the floor. He said,
why don't white men do as white man
saysY Raising his arm and pointing to
Fort Sill he continued, saying, Lots
white men there got no squaws, no
farm-they carry gunsv
CDR. Rose was dumfounded. 1t
would have been certain death to have
truthfully explained to the Indians the
reason for the station of the troops at
Fort Sill. And so DR.. Rose made no
attempt to answer the question, which
had demoralizing effect upon the con-
ference.
"a day or two later met Kicking
berg. inquired why he made such a
speech and told him he had done
wrong. He nearly went into convul-
sions with laughter and regarded his
act as great joke. Recovering him
self he said:
"I know doctor could not answer
question. know, same as doctor, gov

to shoot us down If we don't behave"

CHESTER WHITE BOAR EXPORT.

the eastern states, says American Ag-
riculturist. Among the best breeders
in the west 1t is the custom to keep the
pigs growing until about Sept. /, when
they are placed on full feed and crowd
ed along until December, when they
should weigh $50 pounds each. The
prize winning boar Export, here pic
tured, is owned by j. w. Dorsey of
Illinois.
Care of the Boar.
Many valuable pigs have been ruin
ed between overlooking by the breed
er or the ignorance of the buyer as to
the proper way Of handling the pig
after he has received it. So important
are the kind and amount Of feed given
to the pig from weaving time until he
goes into service that man can ruin
every one In litter as a profitable
breeder, or he may so feed and handle
the litter that every one will be sure
breeder.
The Breeding Pig.
With regard to the extent feed does
influence the OIspr1ng, GIInK every
breeder will admit that the pig that
has been grass raised, with such grains
as will make him thrifty, is the pig
that will give the best returns as a
breeder.-F. d. Spaulding.
The Successful Hog Man.
Give as large variety Of foods az
you can, as pig likes change, but
do not think any man who has made
success of raising pigs ever followed
any formula made out by somebody
else, says B. D. spaulding. The sue
cessful hog man has learned that the
pig has wonderful powers Of producing
flesh from the different products Of the
farm, and If the pig can have the run
Of the farm he will find combination
with the farm products with good re-.
suits.
Hogs a Cash Crop.
During the last two years the hog
crop has kept the wolf away from the
door of many an American farmer"
says Charles Cooper. "As a matter
Of fact, no intelligent hog raiser fails
to make money during period Of
years. Provided he raises his own
corn he has a cinch. While the ma
jority Of our fat hogs will always be
byproduct Of the cattle feeding lot,
there is no more promising sphere for
the small farmer who cannot handle
cattle. Raising his own corn, he need
not concern himself about the price Of
feed. With clover or alfalfa and corn
he can turn of In few months cash
crop that will always top the market"

SOIICORE

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow ard healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

Selection and
Care Of Swine

&O&SSNSAAAS3 s~AS 0SANNSASAA
to be used in developing herd of
swine, Mr.. T. D. Spaulding said before
the Kansas Improved Stock Breeders
association: At weaving time the boar
pigs should be separated from the
gifts, and, if possible, put into pas
ture with plenty Of water, shade and
grass. This pasture should be away
from any other lot or pasture where
other hogs run. It would be better to
have all the pigs In one lot than to
have them in adjoining pastures. BY
being together they become acquaint-
ed, but If separated by a fence they
will fight through 1t, become restless,
stop eating and go to fretting or root
ing. When they get to that state the
only thing to do is to put them into a
small pen, each one separate from 9TH
ers, where they cannot see or hear
other hogs. After pigs have been run
ming together 1T is bad plan to put
other pigs into the same lot; it will
always stir up the whole drove.
AS to feed, the pasture, If of clover
or blue grass, will form large part Of
their ration, no matter what you may
give them. Corn is the grain most used
in this or any other corn producing
country and, when used with grass and
oats and shorts and milk, makes the
ideal feed for pigs. With these breed
er can raise his boar pigs SO they will
be useful to the buyer.
