price Of Corn and Beef.

A noted cattle raiser says that the
price of corn and beef should go to-
gether. When corn is high, beef must
be high, or the farmer will go out OF
the cattle raising business. The man
referred to declares that the large re-
ceipts Of cattle during the past year
are due to the steady unloading OF the
farmers that do not want to feed high
priced corr to medium-priced cattle.
1t also accounts, he says, for many OF
the animals arriving in a half fat con
dition. 1t is doubtless true that there
is not a wide enough difference between
corn-fnished cattle and cattle that
have received almost nc fitting at all.
When every bushel OF corn a man puts
into his beef cattle 10 put In at aloss,
as is the a S this year, farmers can

AN EFFECTIVE HOG FENCE.
Experienced Stockman Prefers Wow
en- Wire to Planks, Because It
Is Much Cheaper.

A hog fence must be strong and SER
viceable. The pocket fence, by some
thought superior to woven wire, will
soon rot off near the ground and in a
few years is practically of no use. The
plank fence is entirely too expensive
with lumber at present prices. Itmakes
a good, serviceable fence, but woven
wire is just as good, costs less, and will
last longer. The rail fence, when well
made, serves all right for people Of a
"back" neighborhood, where up%-to-date
methods are not being introduced. But
the best, neatest and most durable
fence made is woven wire. All thekinds

WORKING TEAMS FEED BILL.
It Varies in Different Parts of the
Country, But $50 Per Animal
Is an Annual Average.

A number of experiment stations have
undertaken the task Of ascertaining the
cost of a work horses food. At the New
conducted for a period of two years, DUR
ing which time the food and drink of five
work horses were accurately weighed. A
horse weighing in the vicinity of 1900
pounds and working every day lost but
little flesh when fed the following ration
per day: Hay, ten pounds; bran, two
pounds; corn, six pounds, and gluten
feed, six pounds. Reckoning corn at
SIG a ton, bran at SIT, gluten feed at $18,
and hay at SIG per ton this ration cost
1873 ceHts per day. A ration consisting
of ten pounds of hay, two pounds of
bran, six pounds of corn and eight
pounds of oats was sufficient to main
tain an animal weighing 1900 pounds,
and cost 22.5 cents per day. When a ra-
ton composed of ten pounds of hay, n
pound Of cottonseed meal, two pounds
of bran and eight pounds Of corn was
fed the cost was ia cents per day.
Horses at moderate work kept in good
condition on this ration. 1t will be seen
that the cost varied from II to % cents
per day per animal. Horses of greater
weight, of course, would require a
heavier ration. AS a rule a work horse
weighing 1,500 pounds, doing ordinary
farm labor, but kept fairly closely at
business, will consume about IS pounds
of grain per day, and from ten to Is
pounds Of hay. If grain can be pur-
chased for two-thirds of a cent a pound,
and as this is usually the case in the
corn belt, the cost of grain would be IL
cents per day, while the hay, reckoned
at eight dollars per ton, counting IL
pounds per day, would amount practical
ly to five cents, thus making a total Of
II cents a day. At this rate the food of
one animal for a year would amount to
$62.05. This figure we consider to be a
little too high, because it is scarcely pos
sible to work an animal the entire year
through, and during slack seasons the
grain ration can be cut down consider
ably. While the New Hampshire sta
ton, above referred to, found tito cost
on an average of $s74,32 per animal, yet
it will be seen by the cost of foods that
some forms are unusually high in price,
as, for example, hay at SIG per ton. II
may be said in a general way that if
horses are well fed and kept fairly busy
during the entire year that their feed
bill will run in the neighborhood Of $50.

HOW CHOLERA is SPREAD.
Disease Is Carried to Many Herds by
Men Who Have Been with
Sick Animals.

Without doubt the best way to keep
hog cholera out of a herd is to prevent
any hogs that have been exposed to
cholera coming into the said herd. The
next p%recaution should be to prevent
men that have been where hog cholera
is, going into pens and yards where
there are healthy herds of swine. We
have frequently spoken of this as a
means of bringing in cholera, but it is
doubtful If we attach enough impor-
lance to it that we should. "A man
that was for some time connected Off
cially with one of our leading expert
ment stations told the writer a few
days ago that the cholera had been
brought to the station again and again
by visitors from farms where the hogs
had the cholera. Men would come to
the station and want to see the hogs.
They would get over into the yards,
handle the animals, and before leaving
would carelessly remark that they had
been losing a good many Of their hogs
from cholera. In due time after their
visit the hog cholera would break out
in the experiment station herd.
1t is not possible for the station Off
Gals to cross-examine every man that
wants to look at the hogs, but men
themselves should have enough intelli-
gence to realize that they are likely to
carry the disease from their own herds
to others. No man that has cholera
in his herd should visit a herd having
no cholera, unless he wears clothing
he is reasonably sure is free from hog
cholera germs.-Farmers' Review.

LITTLE NOTES ABOUT PIGS

&lH-E4.
The pig is a clean, healthy animal
when it has a chance.
Usually a hog with harsh bristles has
a coarse and thick skin.
The fattening hogs should have all
the grain they will eat up clean.
While hogs should have plenty Of
water, it should be pure and fresh.
To securs choice pigs. the selection
of the male is of the first Importance.
Pigs will stand considerable more
nutritious or rich food If it is Given
often and in small quantities.
Young pigs should be taught to eat
as young as possible and receive all
the skim milk they VIII drink.
In selecting 8 young animal for
breeding purposes, one with a gentle
and tractable disposition should be
chosen.--Midland Farmer.

Two men, an ak, brush scythe and five
horses comprise the best outfit that can
be obtained for any field. In order to
equalize the combined strength of the
five horses an e is made on the
plan shown in the illustration. A piece

three-ffths of the distance from the end

chain is attached to the long end Of the
piece of timber, running between the
two off side horses through their neck

"For % years / worked in the school

ECONOMY in Threshing.

The fact that there is more grain put into
the straw stack than there should be, is
something that merits the earnest attention
of the u%p-to-date farmer.
Is it not possible to save the wastage OF
grain and time which attends the use Of old

should command the careful consideration
of every farmer.

DEAR Mrs. P1NKHAM IL cannot

is the only medicine l ever tried which
cured me. I suffered much from nv

and dizzy at times l could not pursue

My thoughts became sluggish, l had
headaches, backaches and sinking
spells, also pains in the back and lower
limbs. In fact, I was sick all over.
FINALLY, after many other remedies
had been tried, we were advised to get
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, andI am pleased to say
that after taking it only two weeks, a
wonderful change for the better took
place, and in a short time I was in
perfect health. I felt buoyant, full of
life, and found all work a pastime. I
am indeed glad to tell my experience
