Skim Milk for Pigs.

On any farm where pigs are raised
and skim milk is available, 1t may
be fed with profit in connection with
grains Of various kinds. To use the
skim milk without the grain Is not
getting the best out Of it. The usual
plan Of feeding skim milk to pigs from
two to three months old is to make a
mixture Of middlings or ground corn
with five times the quantity Of skim
milk. This ration furnishes about the
same nutriment that does the milk of
the SOW, and the pigs will thrive on it.
Some pig raisers try a ration consist
ing Of one part of middlings, one part
Of oil meal and four parts of ground
corn mixed with water in lieu Of skim
milk, and find 1t fairly satisfactory.
Considerable care must be used in the
feeding Of young pigs, and it pays to
try and arrange a ration which will
keep them growing as sturdily as pos
sible.

Simple Garden Marker.

A marker is n Of the handy tools
of the farm, and is readily made by
taking a strip Of inch material of the
desired length, and, at the proper dis
lance from the ends, making holes in
which to insert poles to form a shaft
to which a horse may be fastened. At
intervals on this strip make holes so
that the teeth may be moved as de-
sired. These teeth may be made Of
wood and of varying t~hicknesses and
lengths to suit the various seeds. A
few bolts will do the fastening per-
fectly.
For general use the necessary num-
Der of teeth may be made triangular
in shape, the upper end containing two
bolt holes, so as to lengthen If desired.
(See Fig. ~ A neat adjustment Of a
tooth is shown at Fig. 2. Heavy board

said Eric dryly.
In early youth Lord Hardcastle had
had a disappointment In love, and,
though anyone who knew him would
have thought him the last man in the
world to have taken such a matter Sc
riously to heart, he did, for he shut up
his house and wandered literally all

years.

l wonder so that mothers ever fret
At little children clinging at their
gown;
Or that the footsteps, when the days are
wet,
Are ever black enough to make them
frown.
If | could find a little muddy boot,
A cap or jacket on my chamber floor,
If could kiss a rosy, restless foot,
And hear 1t patter in my home once
more;
Ii | could mend a broken cart to-day,
Tomorrow make a kite to reach the
sky,
There is no woman in Gods world could
say
She was more blissfully content than l.
But ah! the dainty pillow next my own
is never rumpled by a shining head;
My singing birding from its nest has
flown!

But now it seems surprising strange to

That while l bore the badge of mother

did not kiss more oft and tenderly
My little child, who brought me only

Rest Cure for Lameuess.

A roomy yard or large box stall is a
better place for a horse requiring rest
on account Of lameness than q grass
field. Very often the rest may be rem
dered more complete by Judicious sur
gical shoeing, which throws the part
actually involved into a state of rest.
Many make the mistake Of turning
horses out during the day and bring
ing them in at night. Generally speak
ing, the animal would be better off out
at night than during the day, the ex-
ception being when there Is a great
variation between the day and night
temperature. The horse is nocturnal
in his habits; he can Craze and get
about comfortably in a low medium
of light, If he cannot actually "see in
the dark" as he is popularity sup
posed to be able to do, and he can get
food, moderate exercise and the bene-
fetal effect of night dews and damp
grass to his feet, and Is subject to no

Poultry Pickings.

There is less profit in half-starved
hens than in those too fat.
The crocodile, the chicken and the
ostrich take pebbles with their food to
aid in grinding 1t.
The qualifications for a successful
poultryman are patience, perseverance,
pluck, enterprise and capital.
If you do not love your poultry well
enough to give them the proper care,
you had better go out Of business.
If there is any tendency to ~looseness
of the bowels among the poultry, give
them coal ashes to pick over. This
will correct 1t.
Milk may soil the old hens feath-
ers, but there is nothing better for her
in the way Of food and drink.
A good way to clean ducks, after
picking is to rub them well with n
cloth that has been dampened and
dipped in corr meal.
When bumblefoot appears, lance the
bottom of the foot and poultice it with
bread crumbs soaked in milk, or a
scraped raw potato.

Garden Hints.

The California poppy is the most
brilliant red annual. Do not trans

Early plants Of marigold flower in
pots before replanting, and never stop
until frost.
Zinnia is gorgeous and always in
flower. 1t Is well to get selected
strains for pure colors.
Morning glory is the best vine for
the trellis. Soak the seed in warm wa.
ter before planting. 1t self-sows. Tbe
