Turning Pigs on Roots.

Where sugar beets and mangolds are
grown for hog forage the plan often
followed is to turn the hogs into the
lots early in the fall and allow them to
do their own harvesting. Some sup
Elementary grain is fed while the pigs
are consuming roots because of their
inability to consume sufficient of these
to get the required amount Of dry mat
ter.
Pigs scour considerably when turned
in on roots in this way unless consid-
erable dry feed is given the first few
days. Butcher hogs come off this kind
Of feed paunchy and require three or
four weeks grain feeding to fit them
for market. This method should bring
breeding stocks into winter conditions
in strong, vigorous shape. The pigs
will dig all roots out, even to the very
tips, unless the ground freezes.

Riches of Harvest.

The American farmer is an exceed
lngly prosperous individual, according
to railroad statisticians, who have fig
ured out that the grain traffic for this
crop year will aggregate 100000 car
loads. If all this grain could be mar
keted simultaneously and hauled in a
single solid train Of freight cars, the
train would be 1881 miles long, ex-
elusive of the locomotives that would
be necessary to move it.

The miserable and sbominable sys-
tenn of tipping in this and foreign
countries seems to be growing apace
with no sign of let up. Walters en-
ployed in some restaurants says New
York paper 'are not satisfied, it seems,
with the tips they have been receiving
and are preparing to demand larger
wages from theE employers. Whether
or not they succeed in getting better
pay, it is doubtful whether tipping
could be abolished by any arrangement
between the proprietors and the union.
The temptation will exist always for
the patron to procure better service by
presenting a slight donation TO the
seryitor, and human nature must be
changed before the waiter will refuse
TO accept proffered honorarium from
the guest whom he attends. So long,
moreover, as people will tip their
walters, the waiter in turn, will expect
tips and will exhibit sensible indif-
ference and inattention toward such
recusant patrons as neglect the formal
lily Of crossing their palms. There
does not seem to be much hope of do
ing away with tipping, but those Amer
leans who have travelled along the
beaten paths in Europe view with de-
spondency the encroachment of the
habit in this country. So long as we
tip only walters and Pullman porters
We can endure the burden, but it is
horrible to think Of the time when tip
ping shall become In the United States
as universal and imperative a practic }
-xl1>s intolepable an annoyance as it
ia in Europe.
''In the old countries one is expected
to tip everybody that renders a service
however trivial the policeman that
points out a street, all the servants in
the hotels, the cab drivers, the con-
ductors of trains, the porters; in short,
as one humorist said, it is safe to offer
tip to anybody of rank lower than a
bishop. Unnecessary and embarrass-
ing services are forced upon one fer
the sake of tips. Two porters will
seize bag that one might easily carry
and both must be tipped. Expectant
servants will run to open doors and
hold up their hands for a fee. Ring
as often as you will different stten-
dant appears each time so that you may
put yourself under obligations to as
many as can beapisted upon you.
"ShOuld you depart from a hotel
without having done your duty salts
factorily by the multitude of servants
your luggage will be marked in cabal
istie cipher which all servants eau in
terpret, and at your next resting place
you will be neglected or oppressed
with attentions according to the repOr
chalked upon your trunk. You mus
carry constantly, therefore, a pocket
full Of the in6nitesmal currency tina
circuIates on the continent, and mus
keep your wits about You lest yol
overlook some outstretched palm. Th
pestiferous attentions of Europeai
servants and the strain of ke epin
their expectations in mind are vexs
tious and wearing to the ordinsr
American, and make him think wit

BENEFITS OF LIflING.
The Kind of Soils That Need Lime.
How to Apply 1t.

The Kind of Soils That Need Lime.
How to Apply 1t.
Professor Voorhees, of the New Jer-
Bey station is credited with the follow
ing in reply to question on the bene-
fits of lining soil:
1t is not possible in every instance
to indicate certainly whether lining is
needed. 1t will be needed sooner or
later on all light uplands where lime is
not abundant and where the soil has
got into an acid condition from the
residue Of fertilizers or from humus.
1t is needed on heavy clays that have
become too adhesive and on reclaimed
swamp lands. 1t will help where a
heavy sod is turned or large amount
of vegetable matter is turned under.
Where lime is cheap it may for a time
be used for the purpose of releasing
potash in the soil.
Lime Alone VIII Not Enrich.
Lining alone will not enrich poor
land. 1t may respond for a time, but
will soon be exhausted of the mate
rialS on which lime can act. On any
lands the keeping up of the humus con-
tent in the soil in connection with linn
ing is important. The frequency of
lining must be determined by circum-
stances. a single heavy dressing of
lime may correct the undue Elasticity
of a clay and retain it all in fiOcculat-
ed state for years when tilling judicious-
ly, and afterward light applications,
not too far apart, will retain the de-
sirable texture. For the correction of
acidity one heavy application will last
for years. The quantity will depend
largely upon the frequency of applica-
ton.
Quantity to Use.
Lime should be applied ON the fresh
plowing and then narrowed in, and
there is some reason to think that
where the sod is heavy and is to be
deep plowed a division of the applica-
tion, part upon the sod and parts later
as a top dressing, would be more bene-
fetal
To correct a heavy clay, an acid soil
or in preparing rich, new land for
intensive culture in vegetable produc-
tion, the first dressing may need to be
heavy. and in some cases 100 or more
bushels per acre of slaked lime might
be advisable.
ION soils in a good state of fertility
applications of fifty bushels or less
once in six to ten years will maintain
heavy lands in a good state of produc-
tiveness. On light soils twenty-five
bushels per acre will often show the
maximum results, and hence on light
soils very light applications more fire.
quently repeated should be the rule.

DENTAL OFFICE ATTRACTS CROWD
Scene Of Murder Mecca Of Many
Curious People.

Probab blythe one place outside of
delegates and the only place to those
who were not Interested in the conyen-
tion, that attracted attention was the
Ottomeyer .sblock, There was a con-
stant stream of people going into and
out of the stairway leading to the
rooms where DR.. Z. A. Gebhardt was
murdered
Whenever the dental Office doors
were open there was always a crowd
ready to enter, and it was the same
way at the Review Office and as q con-
sequence both places were closed and
remained closed the entire day.
For long time the people who
sought entrance to the place were com
PEELED to go away without any know
| ledge of the crime other than they had
read in the papers and then itappears
that B. Juni found his way to the head
of the stairs and like a professor in a
dime museum, he climbed up and down
from the railing and showed the
! people just how it was done. Told
them who did it and why, and the
punishment that should be meeted out
to those who did not enter into. tie
spirit of the prosecution as he did.
1t was very noticeable fact that
when any person who knew anything
!; of the circumstances and was able to
tell the truth of the matter came upon
) the scene, Mr.. Juni ceased talking OF
changed the subject. But it was really
amusing to listen to.
: It will be necessary for the owner
Of the building to have the top Of tha
