Not an Index of Power.

Young Mr.. Whimper, who had a
worthy ambition for public office, had
closed his canvass of his native State.
He felt sure of his nomination, and
was waiting, in good spirits, at his
fathers fireside to receive it.
He had been asked to tell his ex-
periences as a "spellbinder," and had
willingly consented.
But, on the whole" was his modest
conclusion, 81 was rather successful
And what gratified me particularly
was that in the places where l was
least known l met with the warmest
reception"
1t was several seconds before Mr.
Whimper understood why his father
and the girls laughed, and even bis
mother smiled.

Grinding Corn for Swine.

We believe in feeding swine so that
they will have something to keep them
busy as well as for the best results to
be obtained from the grain, so we feed
the corn whole and usually on the cob
until 1t gets hard and fiinty, when 1t is
either shelled and soaked a little to
soften it or soaked on the cob. All
other grains are ground because it has
been demonstrated that the smaller
grains go through the animals and do
them but little good. Carrying out the
plan of keeping the swine busy, we al
ways have something for them to
chew on-cornstalks, squares Of sod,
apples, potatoes and other vegetables,
and we do not see that they take on
fat any slower because of this plan Of
feeding. Pure water is given them in
clean troughs twice a duy during the
winter and we know they thrive bet
ter for having it.-Exchange.

Fall Mulching Of Trees.

II it is thought necessary to apply
mulch around the base of trees or
shrubs as winter protection care
must be used not to do the work too
soon, particularly if anything in the
nature of fertilizer is used, such as
coarse stable manure, for there is al
ways danger of melting renewed
growth in the tree, just as it is begin
ming to go to sleep for the winter, and
this growth, being extremely tender,
will be killed by the first cold weather,
probably with much injury to the tree.
A better plan is not to apply the mulch
until the ground freezes, applying
more, if necessary, later ON.
By far the best plan of all is to use
earth with which to protect the roots
Of the tree or shrub during the first
cold days; put it on several inches
thick for three feet around the tree
Later, if it gets too cold, little coarse
manure may be put on over the soil
By this plan the tree or shrub will
have full protection without danger OF
melting late growth.

Water Basin for Chicka.

Take a basin that will hold about
two quarts of water and fill it with
pebbles little smaller than eggs.
When level full of the pebbles, pour
In the water until the spaces betwaan
them are full. Sink the basin in the
ground until the rim is an inch above
the surface. The chicks can run all
over this, stepping on the pebbles and
can drink the water without getting
wet. We have used such a fountain
for years with perfect success. 1t is
easy to clean, keeps the water cool for
several hours and protects the chicks
from getting wet all over, as they can
not crowd each other into the water,
no matter how much they try to do so.

Loading Corn Fodder

Loading corn fodder may not be
very hard work to the small farmer,
but when one has the product Of many
acres to load it becomes a formidable
operation. The work can be much
more easily done if the following de-
vice is used: Make loader by using
a two-inch plank ten feet long with
cleats of inch stuff nailed on one side
at short intervals. At one end nail a
cleat on the under side, which will be
three inches wider than the board on
each side. Tie small ropes to this cleat
and with them fasten the rack to the
back part of the wagon rack, the lower
end of the plankrack resting on the
ground.
This makes stepladder up which it
Is easy to walk and If strongly made a
man can readily carry up 1t all he can
get his arm around. With this plan
one man can do the work of loading a
wagon easily without spending the

Picket Fence Device.

A simple effective plan for building
a picket and wire fence without ma
chine is suggested by G. G. Schneider,
Of Ava, Mo. He says:
A device which will answer the pur-
pose of a fence machine is made as
follows: Take pieces of 2x4 foot or
80 long, bore two small holes near the
end of each, put the wires through
these holes and fasten to post where
you wish to begin. Then stretch your
wire and staple to post some distance
ahead, leaving the staples loose
enough SO the wire will slip when 1t is
drawn tight. Let eight or ten feet of
wire extend beyond the post and to
those fasten heavy weight, to keep the

Run Farms by Electricity,

to farmers living along the line an
offer to furnish power to run the ma

steam engines are used extensively,
but corn shelling, feed cutting and 9TH

Flowing the Garden,

If the garden is thoroughly under.
drained, as it always should be. il
should be fall plowed in ridges and the
surface left rough, so as to expose the
soil as much as possible to freezing
This is the more necessary because the
garden is always a sheltered SPOT
where snow lies much Of the winter
so that there are few times when the
soil freezes very deeply. The garden
is always the richest spot on the farm,
1t often is heavy with manure and
needs the winters freezing to tighten
the soil and make its fertility more
available.

Cost Of 200 tons silage.. .$2S5 90
Cost per ton of silage. MUM. l 42b
The average yield per acre in this
instance was 1875 tons of green corn.
The cost of the ensilage, including the
raising, which was estimated at So per
acre, was O little high. Consulting the
table, however, it will be seen that it
required four teams hauling for FIVE
days top draw the corn to the silo per
day. This means that the silage had
to be drawn from some distance or
more could have been hauled, but even
at s1.5o per ton silage is very cheap

Cost of SilaEe.

We have from time. to time laid be-
fore our readers the cost Of putting
corn in the silo, says Farmers Trib-
une. Some men are able to grow the
corn at cost of about 80 cents per
ton Of green matter. They are able to
put it in the silo for another 80 cents,
making the total cost of the silage in
the silo approximately 81 per ton.
Sometimes the cost goes as high as
$150, sometimes even higher.
Sam Schilling, who is manager of
Joel Pheatwole's heard at Northfeld

cost of putting sixteen acres of corn
in his silo last year and these figures
were given before the Minnesota But

FUNERAL OF WARREN NORTON
Remains of Well Known Man Laid to
Rest

Rest
Over a hundred employees of the
Grand opera house and Coulter's dry
goods store assembled at the Chris
tian church, North Broadway, yester-
day morning to pay a last tribute Of
love to Warren Norton, who died
Sunday morning, and who had been
one of the most popular among the
workers at both of these busy places.
The services were conducted by the
Rev. B. F. Coulter, assisted by Mr..
Jaeger, after which funeral cars and
carriages carried those present to Rose
dale cemetery where the interment
took place. The music was furnished
by a choir from Coulter's store.
A beautiful symbolic floral piece was
contributed by the Grand opera house
employees. Mr.. Norton was assistant
treasurer of that theater, and the piece
was in the form of large theater
ticket worked out in red and white
roses and carnations.
The pail bearers were Walter Drown.
Frank Raymond and Paul Caye from
the Grand, and Frank Dugsn. Walter
Jaeger and Clarence Boswell from
Coulter's.
