Piq Pointers.

The short nose in the SOW it is said,
indicates early maturity in her pigs.
1t has been found by long experience
that the sows of good vitality, Sc
lected from large filters, insure the
largest filters of pigs in turn.
The boar with a broad breast and
with large girth at the heart has the
greatest vitality, and other points be-
ing equal, is the kind to select for
strong vigorous pigs that will resist
ordinary disease germs and grow rap
idly.
It is the experience of many hog
breeders that lice will bother even
young pigs. For trouble of this kind
many hog growers dip their pigs &C.
casionally and find it does the work
perfectly and is more economic in
use than anything else they have
used for clearing the herds of lice.
Gull and Gull closely. II there Is
any doubt remember that if sold for
pork the hog is worth in most cases
what it cost to raise it. If you have
pigs to sell for breeders keep in mind
that worthy specimen, better hog
than was described to the buyer, will
become a walking advertisement for
your herd and you as a breeder.

Farms Out of Logged-off Lands.

So much interest is Delng manl'
tested these days concerning the pos
sibility of making good farms out OF
logged-off lands that The Ranch pub
fishes the following as showing what
some Clallam county ranchers are do
ing with logged-off lands. Claus Skav-
dial. who lives near Port Crescent, has
80 acres of land that was logged off,
from which he is cutting the culls for
shingles and clearing the land up as
he goes. He milks thirty-five head OF
COWS in the summer, allowing them to
run outside in the logged-off sections
to feed.
Herbert Dempsey has a 60-acre farm,
forty acres of which was logged Off
last season. He is putting it into pas
ture, and is now milking seven COWS.
w. S. Miller, of Port Crescent, this
county, has a farm of 12O acres, all OF
which was heavily timbered few
years ago. He has forty acres now
under cultivation in which the larg
est stumps still remain. The remain
ing eighty acres was logged off but
two years ago. Since then Mr.. Miller
has fenced the tract, picked up and
burned the small stuff and trash, and
and white clover, orchard and Ken
lucky blue grass in proportion, Wn1ch
has made good pasturage all through
the past season and is still good at THIS
writing. Mr. Miller is milking nine
COWS now, and will milk twenty next
season. He did not have to feed any
thing this year until October LIST. His
COWS have averaged him $3.50 for the
past four and half months, and none
of them are Jerseys, being mostly Dur
ham stock Mr.. Miller is now raising
twelve Jersey calves he bought from
the Glendale Creamery Co. On twenty
acres of his newly logged-off eighty
acres Mr.. Miller runs thirty-one head
of stock sheep, which he feeds only in
bad weather, and they remain fat the
year round, and are the most profitable
thing on his place.
The Puget Sound Mills & Timber
Company, who are logging at Port
Crescent, have 1000 acres of logged
off land from two to three miles from
the Strait of Fuca which is said to be
as good land as any to be found in the
state. The company has seeded down
several sections which furnish pastur-
age for several hundred head of stock
In ALL this company owns some 5000
acres of logged-off lands, which, how
ever, are not now on the market, as
the company has some plans of its own
for the disposition of the lands in the
future.
According to the farmers mentioned
above, there is room for dozens of
such dairy farms in that vicinity, all
near steamboat landings and the coun
ty road landing at Port Angeles, fifteen
miles distant Besides, there are 1000
acres of timber in the vicinity which
will all be logged-off within the next
three years. Snohomish and other
Puget Sound counties also present
good opportunities for the man who
wants to own a logged-off farm.

Investigation Indicates That
Paul Morton Was Cogni-
zant of the Rebate to
That Company.

Washington. June 24-It ia Rener.
ally circulated here, and tho report
can be traced to those who are In a
position to know, that when Secre-
tsry of the Navy Paul Morton rstires
form the cabinet next week, it viii l
be the last of the Santa Fe inquiry
as far as he is concerned. for he will
not be prosecuted in connection with
the famous rebate case. This is the
general Interpretation put on the
Developments of the week in the oon-
troversy between Attorney General
Moody and Judson Harmon and Fred.
eriok N. Judson. which has resulted
in these lawyers retiring from the
case because Mr.. Moody had refused
to accept their recommendations to
prosecure without fear and favor all
the officials of the offending corpora
tions. 1t seems that the evidence de-
veloped by the Interstate Commerce
commission clearly indicated that
Paul Morton, as second vice president
Of the Santa Fe WAS one of the off E.
oisls cognizsnt of the rebate trAnsso-
tions. Mr.. Morton sewers his oonpec-
tion with the administration q week
from today. He has practically
turned the Navy department over
to assistant Secretary Darling. and
is spending most of his time in New
York looking after Equitable affairs.

that the shipment be jettisoned. The Haw-
thorn was bound from New York for Mo-

cred that the cargo was on fire, the authori-
ties at Nassau ordered the schooner to leave
port. Capt. HotfseS says the vessel is un-
injured. The owners have cabled the cap

A NEW RAILROAD SCHEME.
The Bangor l. Northern Maine Short Line
Railway.

The Bangor & Northern Maine Short Line
Railway.
BANGOR, Feb. 10. Th.re has been some
talk about the city within the last few days
concerning new railroad scheme which
has lately been formulated, and incorporated
in this State under the name of the Bangor
& Northern Maine Short Line railway.
When reporter called ON Geo. w. Max
field, at the Maine Farm-product c0mpany's
office, in regard to this new railroad in
Bangor, MIR. Maxfield said: 1--WE have
options Oh the tide water facilities at High
Head in this city known as the Crosby heirs
wharf property, all that land with the new
tending from tide water to Main street, and
from the Public Works company's Car barns
up Main street to Hon. j. b. Bass land,
and IS rods Of Mr. Bass property adjoining
the Hinckley & Egery land on Main street,
and back as far as the land extends These
two last pieces mentioned are on the oppO-
site side of the Main street from the city
farm and much more is under control
''The Bangor & Northern Maine Short
Line railway will be built at once if char
tered. II. NJ. Heath, Esq, of Augusta.
holds the written agreement Of the New
York incorporators to that effect. They are
financially able to do it.
The road will start at tide water at Ban
gOr, 60 up through the westerly part Of the
towns on the west side of the Penobscot to
Mattawamkeag, from Mattawamkeag the
line will run through the easterly part Of
ArooStook to Houlton, the main line will
also run from Mattawamkeag by the way of
Midway, Millinocket, Mount katahdin,
Chamberlain lake to the headwaters of the
St. John river on our western boundary.
Another branch will run from Midway to
Patten and thence to Pressure Isle. 1t will
be 275 miles long The line is so laid out as
not to conflict with the fifteen mile limit of
the B. & A.
"Under the charter it is impossible for
the Maine Central or any other corporation
to control the charter on the road 1t con-
tains strong and unusual restrictions. 1t
will and must be an Independent company:
1t asks no tax exemption, no public aid, and
no one in Maine to help finance it.
SIT has been carefully studied. My
friends in New York believe that there is
room for this road and the Is. Il A. They
have no desire to injure that road. They
confidently believe that the growth of
northern Maine will give both roads all the
traffic they can possibly handle. The pub
lie can feel sure the road will be built. 1t
means a wonderful development for Ban
gor and all of northern Maine"
