FEED FOR PIGS.
Improved Breeds of Hogs Call Nor
Improved Methods of Feeding
and good Food.

Improved hogs call Qoudly) for i'm
proved methods of feeding and for
best feeds. The cost of such feeds will
vary widely with farm conditions, but
the pigs must be fed. Young pigs of
four to six weeks should have ground
feed or green feed given three times
each day. Later we can drop to two
feeds as supplements to the mothers
care and food supply. What shall we
feed?
The average farmer at this season
has only corn and grass for hogs. This
is fairly good for hogs, but we can not
feed these so well to pigs. Many feel
they are actually bankrupting them
selves when forced to feed sound corn
to little pigs" They are, in a meas
ure, right. 1t rarely pays. 1t fails to
pay because nothing else but mothers
milk is fed with the corn. A better
plan is to use shorts, bran, barley,
crushed oats or cotton seed meal With
the corn chops. Cotton seed meal?"
did we say cotton seed meal?" Yes,
feed cotton seed meal to the pigs, as
directed and nothing but good will
come of it. Feed a little blood meal
to the young things-not more than
two teaspoonfuls per day to pig three
weeks old.
Which are the cheaper Of these
things? When barley or wheat are on
the farm. feed these in preference to
buying. High priced?" Yes, but the
pigs are to be good ones and high
priced. Don't raise any other kind
even if you are forced to kill and
sell the pork yourself. Feed to three
week pigs crushed or ground wheat
and barley. They will not eat much.
When able TO eat freely give them
these grains whole and scatter them
so that the little fellows will chew
the grain. In case we need to buy,
current prices will have much to do
with the selection of the grain. When
prices are as follows we would suggest
the several rations noted below for
| pigs four to twelve weeks old. Corn
so cents per bushel, shelled oats 40
cents, wheat s1,2O, bran $1,05, shorts
s1.15 per 100 pounds.
Feed, Mixture No Corn, pounds;
wheat, pounds; cotton seed meal, 2
pounds. Total, 10 pounds.
Mixture No. Corn, Z pounds;
wheat bran, pounds. Total, 10
pounds.
Mixture No. Corn, pounds;
shorts, pounds. Total 10 pounds.
Corn is quite cheap in above list
for feeding pigs when compared with
other grains, provided we do not feed
it so freely as to be Eurtful or take
the place of a more strength giving
feed. The last ration given is, there
fore, the cheapest at prices taken, be-
cause it admits of the free use of
corn and involves the use of but lit
tie of the higher-priced stuffs from
which we select companion feeds for
the corn. We can arrange other ra-
tons equally as good from these same
feeds, but probably the prices chosen
will mol justify US in enlarging on this
teeture-.Texaa Ferp and Rapea,

When he doesn't have to kiss his

HOME STYLE
FURNISHING
Mr.. West Talks Entertainingly
On the Mission Styles

Geo. A. West, of the firm of C. E..
West & Co., returned from the Chi
cago markets the first of the week and
as usual, comes home filled with good
ideas for the betterment of his busi-
ness. These semi-annual trips to the
eastern market keep him in close
touch with the latest styles and ideas
in regard to tasty house, furnishing,
and at the same time enables him to
purchase the useful and ornamental
at prices that are right-so that home
people can afford to buy what they
want, feeling assured that they have
good article and something up-to-
date. In an interview with the gentle
man yesterday he seemed impressed
with the idea that a ,"home style" in
Missions would soon be created which
would take the place of more ornate
and expensive lines of furniture.
He said, there is nothing in the
new furniture which is being sold to
indicate that the furniture built on
Mission lines is waning in favor.
Outside OF furniture circles there are
people who are beginning to sit up
and take notice. Possibly the mis-
take was made in naming the style
now commonly known as Mission.
1t is my opinion that in the evolution
from the severe, sometimes heavy and
clumsy Mission there may come
something which we may be willing
to recognize as the "home style"
There is hopeful tendency in that
direction as any buyer who visits the
market from season to season as do
can observe.
To the average American home fur
nisher this is the only style that will
appeal to the vast numbers Of well-to-
do, when once it is created. The

Lake City, San Francisco, Portland,
and all points west can be reached
just as easily and quickly and with as
much convenience and comfort in
travelling over the Rock Island railroad
as over the c. & N. w. Ry.
All the inconvenience that would be
encountered in carrying out the boy
colt will be found in getting from here
to Bushnell. That can be overcome
by an electric line. An electric line
from Brookings to Bushnell with
narrow and light track and cars SINH
lar to the average street cars, can be
built for less that $20, 900. A standard
guage that would allow of running
freight cars would cost about $50, 900.
The City of Brookings has the
power in its electric light plant which,
! doubt not, could be arranged so as to
use it in transmitting power to run the
cars. Such a road would pay from the
start and it would also furnish the
means for the city Of Brookings to
relieve itself OF the whip of monopoly
that the G. Il n. w. R'y Co. are hold
ing over them.
If company were organized to
build such road believe that every
dollar Of the stock would be subscribed
by the citizens Of Brookings and
Bushnell and the farmers along the
line, for all would be benefited by the
operation OF the road.

Noted Correspondent and Travele,

Few newspapers in the United
States are able to command the SER
vices of as brilliant a corps of corres-
pondents as that of the Chicago
Record-Herald. Its choice of Wash
ington correspondent is indicative Of
the Record-Herald's policy Of obtain
ing the best there is to be had. Walter
Wellman, the we'll known author on
political subjects and one of the ablest
writers of the day, acts in that
capacity.
Mr.. Wellman was born in Mentor,
Ohio, Nov. 3, 1858. At the age of IA
he began his newspaper experience,
establishing at that age a weekly
paper in the little town of Sutton,
Neb. In 1873 he returned to Ohio,
and year later established the
Cincinnati Evening Post. In 1884 he
became the Washington correspondent
of the Chicago Herald, and in 1892 he
visited Central America and the West
Indies and located the landing place
OF Columbus on Walting's (San Sal
Waldorf Island, and marked the spot
with a hugh stone monument. Mr..
Wellman's dashes for the north pole
are we'll known. In 1894 ne made the
first of his two arctic voyages of
exploration, reaching the latitude of
81 degrees northeast of Spitzbergen.
In 1898 he returned to the North,
penetrated to Franz josef Land, re-
turning again to this country in 1899.
On each trip he met with wonderful
success in the discovery OF new islands
and lands, and brought back with

WATERFOWL
DEFEATED
Special Train Loaded With Root
ers Came Along to Helpp

Base ball sport in Brookingsys may
be said to have almost reachhed its
climax since the last issue OF the
REGISTER. On Thursday afteternoon
a special train from Watertown pulled
in with hundred or more rooteIers Tor
their ball team. They were aaccom-
panied by Watertown's famous band
of twenty or more pieces, whiaich at
once formed into line and parade1ed up
and down Main street, followed t by the
ball team and tall, lank sshadow
which afterward proved to b'be the
Watertown umpire.
Our people were struck dumb 3 oy the
magnificent spectacle, land the "BBrook-
ings Reds" gazed in open molouthed
wonderment as the procession maiarched
by to the tune of "See the Conquuering
Hero Comes" By an almost super
human effort, however, our boys
pulled themselves together annd ap-
peared upon the diamond determined
to sell their lives as dearly as possssible.
Watertown was not satisfied With the
parade they had made with the bband-
they had money they wanted to pparade
before the poor people OF Brook'klngs.
They had all kinds of it-monaey to
burn, money to throw at the b BIRDS,
and the way they praneed upp and
down in front of the grand stand with
the greenbacks would make Croroesus
green with envy. 1t made BrooDklngs
sports look rather cheap to see those
big wads 60 round, but by hoolok or
crook they managed to cover about
$500 and then the bank went buusted,
and the game commenced.
The "Reds' recovered sufficiently
to play the game and played tilt to
fnish-they not only played the
Watertown ball team but theirlr $5O
umpire, all in one bunch. Up too the
ninth inning there had been no scscores
made on either side; then Watertrtown
run in two on the first half. Brook!klngs
went to bat in the last half with h the
Watertown band all lined up forr the
funeral march and another pa,arade
down town but oh, what a difference
in the next few minutes. The "Reaeds'
lined up one, two, three, pretty seseores
and Watertown's band, rooters and
ball team went "straight up"-annd so
did their wad of greenbacks.
And then-there was no paradeie by
Watertown. Like the Arab "tthey
folded their tent and silently stole
away" and we are told that darkkness
and silence reigned around their
melancholy especial" as it qui1ietly
glided into the big city on the ba'anks
of beautiful Lake Kampeska.

avidity with which the Mission styles
have been taken up show that our peo-
pie want a "home" style, and that
they are ready for itnow. Our French
styles are all "palace" styles. They
were created for courts and parlors,
and they are appropriate there. They
are also appropriate in the palaces OF
American millionaires and in the
mansions of other very wealthy per-
sons. But who will say the average
American home or cottage is appro-
priately furnished with the limitations
OF palaces? A palace is not a home,
and it never was and never will be
home. 1t is a more or less theatrical
show place. The well-to-do American
desires a real home life and, to live in,
there is not one of us but would prefer
cheaper comfort to the most expensive
full dress furnishings of alien source.
What "home style" have we? Well
we have Georgian (ColoniaD which is
pre-eminently "home style" and
good one; we have the Dutch
(ColoniaD; then we have the Flemish.
Perhaps these are all, for the Queen
Anne is so like the Colonial and
Georgian that it may be classed with
it. To my mind the Colonial is the
best complete style for American
homes today. The Mission arts and
crafts is assuming certain air OF
completeness, but it has not reached
a point where it includes quaintness,
simplicity, daintiness and strength
and femininity. For good many
rooms it is a splendid style; for some
rooms it lacks bit Of daintiness; but
a person could live happy and well in
home completely furnished in the
Mission-Crafts style. Yes, we are de-
veloping "home style" one that will
be welcomed by all classes and one
that will be typically American.
Mr.. West returns from his trip very
enthusiastic and hopeful with regard
to the autumn business. Every
department of the big store will be
toned up with few pieces here and
there that have been bought under
close scrutiny and severe criticism.
