Of this part of the specification. The
consequence was that when the con,
tractors finally found that they would
have to spend for a concrete block
machine several thousand dollars
above what they had figured on, and
tried to get out of the contract as best
Ihey could. Holloway had some time
ago written to the contractors ordering
them to proceed at once with the build,

raise objections to the specifications

CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN
 TO GIVE HOGS SHELTER.

In the March Farm and Preside w. F. McSparran has the following to say about sheltering hogs
 On most farms the swine are regarded somewhat as a by-product, and the att tention that their importance in farm economy deserves Is not given them. Of course, there is no reason why the farmer should be more careless with or wasteful of by-product than manufacturer is. but that he is so is plainly written in all our farming hstory-that is, if we have any written history.
 On many farms the pig is half an out cast. He is fed the leavings, and often his drink Is fit only for the compost heap or to put out a fire When the winds and rains and sleets and snows come around and over and through him, he Is welcome to a good shelter if he can find 1t. The best he can find Is usually leaky over head and saturated beneath. If corn is high he Is put on short rations through the winter. and merely kept alive until spring. If his immediate destiny is the market of course the corn allowance Is increased, but the shelter Is seldom inn proved.
 One of the important things in animal husbandry that stockmen are slowest to learn or put into practice Is that heat and animal vitality are produced, and
  cold un oken wind that blows away the bodily heat from the animal is blowing away as much feed as was required to produce that heat, plus the energy that was expended by the animal extracting the heat from the feed.
 Now. I know there Is a time-honored notion-and even old things are not al- ways entitled to our respect--that expos ure is conducive to healthfulness and that to make an animal strong and robust and long lived one needs to train it's muscles by letting 1t shlver, or develop it's bone by forcing it to move on to keep from freezing. To let every cold wind blow around 1t for the fullest lung ex- pansion. But we are not SO much inter- ested in the long life of the pig as we are in his profitable one, so we can afford to make him more comfortable for the sake of more profit.
 At the Kansas Agricultural college two lots of hogs were fed One lot was shel- tered in a warm basement, the other was kept in an open yard with a board fence on the north The hogs in the barn con- sumed 2STS pounds of feed, and gained GOA pounds during the trial period of ten weeks. the amount of feed required for 100 pounds of gain being 476 pounds. The one In the exposed yard consumed 2S44 pounds. They made a gain of 479 pounds and required 593 pounds of feed for 100 pounds of gain or about one-fourth more feed for 100 pounds of gain than the shel- tered lot. The hogs were Berkshires, weighing from 200 to 250 pounds each. and were evenly divided into two lots of five each

only can we grow all these things-fruits' vegetables and flowers-for our own use, but we can, when our country is eulti- vated as 1t should be, grow thousands or ears for northern markets.
 My friends. our readers, do you know how anxious l am to see our country transformed along these lines and to see all our people enjoying the comforts of this life, which l know our country can and will give if we will only allow 1t to do so? Organize farmers institutes, get out, meet together, educate, and take ad- vantage of the possibilities of your coun- try. | am ready-yes, stand ready-to contribute my humble part in helping to build up our country. Placed as am' Iaboring day by day among the farmers, I know that the farmer who does not get into the procession and move with the procession Is sure to get left.
 I commend these things for the young men of our country Let us get to work and set many of our lands to alfalfa or other grasses.

before the weevils have become so mum erous as to destroy the great majority of the bols sf
 In this way on experimental plots az gregating seven or eight hundred acres. in different parts of Texas, the experts of the division of entomology of the United States department of agriculture have been able to raise and pick, before the middle of October, from two-thirds of a bale to a bale an acre. whereas from crops not thus planted and treated only bale to from eight to twelve acres has been secured.
 Then, after this amount of cotton has been picked, the cotton stalks are cut down or plowed up, left to lie for a while until dry, and are then burned.
 Very many weevils are destroyed in this way. The few which escape have much longer period to wait before the crop comes up, and many die. The num- Der which will be on hand to attack the cotton on these fields next year will be very small The result is that more cot ton can be raised year after year,
 Thus cotton can be raised in spite of the weevi But the weevil will not be exterminated; it will probably continue to spread, and it is altogether likely that 1t will invade the other cotton growing states.
 The work on remedies, however, Is still going on; the search for parasites in tropical countries still continues. Con gress will probably appropriate at this session a large sum of money to help in the work. so that although the outlook is rather bad. it is by no means hopeless, and the prospect that the United States will lose her supremacy in cotton produc- ton on account of the weevil is In my mind not greatly to be feared.

SOMETHING ABOUT THE
 MEXICAN BOIL WEEVlL.

In a recent issue the Youths Companion says:
 Farmers and fruit-growers have been fighting injurious insects ever since there were any farmers and fruit growers.
 It would seem as if, after these many years of experience, they would have learned remedies for every insect pest
 They have learned many, and the scien- tiic men who are constantly working on this very important problem have found excellent economic means to destroy the great majority of the injurious insects. But every few years there appears some new insect pest which is so strong and so prolific. or which lives in such a peculiar way, that 1t is able to do enormous damage. to destroy millions of dollars worth of crops. and sometimes to alarm more than a single country and to affect the relations of number of civilized nations.
 A few years ago the San Jose scale, a minute creature which injures fruit trees. spread all over the United States. and oc- casioned the passage of edicts and laws in many foreign countries by which Amer ican friuts and fruit trees were practically barred from international commerce.
 And now another of these great insect scourges Is affecting the cotton crop of Texas, and it threatens to spread all
 
 to the vast amount of damage done by this insect that the price of cotton last year went up to almost unprecedented figures, so that cotton mills have been obliged to stop. thousands of operatives have been discharged and the wages of thousands more have been reduced.
 The Cost of the Weevil.
 Eighty per cent of the cotton crop of the world is raised in America. and of the cotton raised in the United States Texas produces nearly a fourth. All the richest cotton counties of Texas have been invaded by the weevil and the loss in cotton destroyed by its depredations in the past summer has surely been as great as fifteen million dollars.
 Spurred on by the high price of cotton and by the prospective danger of a great lessening of the American crop. foreign na- tions are making every effort to raise their own cotton, The English colonies are particularly active. and the German colonies as we'll. Russia Is also making every effort to push the growing of cot ton within her territory. Oother nations are doing the same. The trade balance of the entire world may soon be affected If efficient remedies for the pest are not discovered and used.
 The weeyil itself Is an insignificant creature. little gray snout-beetle, about one-fourth of an inch long, but 1t breeds
