DIRTY as hog" is a common say.
ing, yet the hog is maligned in it. The
hog is much cleaner than some other
Of our farm animals in many respects.
He will not Willingly sleep in his own
filth. When he does SO it is when he
has been placed in confined quarters
where he can exercise no choice In the
matter Every person that has bad
the handling of swine knows how
carefully the hog will carry the straw
into one part of his pen for his bed,
and will keep it clean as long as it is
possible to do SO. Some swine rails
ers follow the practice of having a
raised platform in one part Of the pen,
and on this the straw for the bed Of
the hog is placed The hog will al
ways deposit his excrement in the un-
bedded portion of the pen, and will
keep his platform and bed clean. This
can not be said of the COW or horse
The hog is accustomed to root In the
ground, for that is where he gets a
large part of his feed when no Is in his
wild state. But this is not an unclean-
habit. He wallows in the mud when
he takes his bath, but that is because
he is a thick-skinned> animal, and the
ordinary ablution is insufficient for his
needs.-Farmer's Review.

HERE AND THERE.

Stables with too much cowy odors
in them are not fit to keep milk In
and separating should be done in an
other place.
In the up-to-date horse stable, hay
racks are obsolete. The hay Is fed
from the floors. Managers and troughs
should be interchangeable, to admit
taking out, scrubbing and summing.
We are now in the heated season,
and vermln of every kind breed rap
idly, and we may as well say to every
poulterer that the care of your poultry
will not do to be left to boys or any
disinterested persons.
Happy the farmer who in these
days of inflated meat and coal prices
can fall back on his own resources,
live on the eggs, chickens, pork and
lamb of his own production, and get
the fuel he needs in his own woods.
In chemical composition wheat is
found to contain but little more feed
ing value than corn, but as q carrier
Of variety to the naturalization when
mixed with corn it has value far be-
yond that fixed for it by the chemist.
The practice OF sprinkling eggs in
the nest is one that should be discard
ed. 1t is usually done just before the
chicks are due to come out, and 1t
often kills them in the shells. Nature
provides them with all the moisture re-
quired.
The success which has attended
the introduction of breakfast-foods has
been largely due to the attractive ap-
pearance of the packages and the con-
tents. This is a lesson which should
be needed by all who have products Of
any kind TO market.
"A good tree we'll planted will usu-

THE DEAF MUTE HUSBAND.
Had One Advantage, He Didn't Have
to Look When His Wife
Scolded.

At social gathering some time ago,
number Of deaf mutes were present. Re-
fresshments were served during the evening,
and in handing a small glass Of wine to one
of the guests deaf mute gentleman hap
pened to spill few drops on his wife's skirt.
The wife, relates the Philadelphia Public
Ledger, is also deaf mute, and il was evil
dent that she took the mishap in a rather
irritable way. She wrinkled up her fore
bead and at once made series Of remark
ably swift movements with her nimble
fingers. The husband, looking exceedingly
apologize, made few motions in re-
turn.
One Of the guests, who had noticed this
little by-play, slyly slipped out bit of paper
and .penciling something on it, handed it to
friend,
This is what the letetr read:
No matter how badly afflicted, woman
can still scold."
The friend scrubbed in return:
eyes, but in the present case the husband
is luckier than the average. He doesn't
have to look"

What Had Happened 10 Him.

oussing the trip. Some of the men

planned Of his heart. One big athletic
fellow. with thick, muscular neck,
listened complacently. His, heart and
ears were all right. The men had
been obliged to change their clothes
before entering the tunnel, and the big
man was putting on his collar. Sud.
denly he turned pale. Gracious
heaven!" he exclaimed, clutching his
throat and turning to the civil engi-
neer who had guided The party, "did
you ever hear Of mans throat swell
ing from going into the tunnel?"

mine, and guess you'll be all right"

THE YOUNG GARDENER.
Children Should BE Encouraged 20
Take an Interest in the Gar
den Work of the Farm.

Many people neglect to interest their
children in the garden as they should.
1t would be b. III helpful to the parent
and instructive to the children, TO have
them take part in the garden work
as soon as they arrive at an age when
they can be used. They should be
encouraged to plant, to hoo and weed,
and to gather properly the vegetables.
We think we have reason to be proud
of our own boys in this particular.
Our twelve-year-old son says already
he is going to make truck farmer
Of himself, and has been helping to
gather all our vegetables this season,
and has done all my peddling In town
with the help Of ten-year-old negro
boy to attend to his horse and carry
things into the houses. So you see,
he will soon have great deal of
practical training. Then we hope to
give him extra advantages in a course
at some agricultural college. Hoping
Georgia will have the facilities by the
time he reaches the age. Wake up
farmers, and lets demand them. Our
little two-year-old son already says he
is going to be seed man, and had
rather play with beans, peas, ETC., than
any blocks or toys. We made him a
sandbank near the back-6oor in which
to play, and he calls this his garden,
plows it with his little garden fork
and has already planted it in olIra,
beans, peas and corn several times.
We looked out last week and saw
white peas scattered all over it, and
said "Son, what are you going to do
with your peas?" He replied at once:
Make some more little peas" Such
as this should move any parents
heart, however high or humble; and
let us see to it that our children have
the proper opportunities, whether we
can get them to make use Of them or
not. OF course all tastes will not lie
in the same direction, but from the
soil God made us; and it may safely
be put down as a broad proposition
that all her children will respond with
more or less interest in well cultured
soil, and develope a love for the gar
den, which must play 60 large part
in their bill -of-fare" throughout flu
ture life.-G. F. Hunnment, in Dixie

BUILDING FOOD
TO Bring the Babies Around.


When o little human machine Tor a
large one) goes wrong, nothing is so
important as the selection Of food
which will always bring it around
again.
my little baby boy fifteen months
= old had pneumonia, then came brain
fever, and no sooner had he got over
these than he began to cut teeth and,
being so weak, he was frequently
thrown into commissions" says q
Colorado mother.
Il decided change might help, SO
took him to Kansas City for a visit
When we got there he was so very
weak when he would cry he would
sink away and seemed like he would
die.
When reached my sisters home
she said Immediately that we must
feed him Grape-Nuts and, although
had never used the food, we got some
and for few days gave him just the
juice of Grape-Nuts and milk. He got
stronger SO quickly we were soon
feeding him the Grape-Nuts itself and
in wonderfully short time he fat
tened right UP and became strong and
well.
THAT showed me something worth
knowing and, when later on my girl
came, raised her on Grape-Nuts and
she is a strong, healthy baby and has
been. You will see from the little
photograph l send you what strong,
chubby youngster the boy is now, but
he didn't look anything like that be-
fore we found this nourishing food
Grape-Nuts nourished him back to
strength when he was so weak re
couldn't keep any other food OH his
stomach" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
All children can be built to a more
sturdy and healthy condition upon
Grape-Nuts and cream. The food con.
tains the elements nature demands
from which to make the soft gray
filling in the nerve centers and brain
A we'll fed brain and strong, sturdy
nerves absolutely insure a healthy

tention and suggested an unanswerable
objection.
