Two Litters a Year.

The practice of raising but one lit
ter of pigs year is not one that is to.
be commended. There is more profit
in two litters than in one.
and the question of furnishing
protein food for winter use.
need not worry the farmer. There
are so many things that a hog will
eat that 1t is not much of a task TO
select one or two that may be fed in,
the winter. Silage made from clover
will prove to be one of the great helps
to the producing of winter pigs, and
Writer dairying will be a yet stronger
en-, engagement. With two broods a
year double interest is being obtained
from the money invested in equip
meDt.

MISCELLANY
Alfalfa and Innoculation.

Alfalfa and lnnocuiation.
We sowed alfalfa year ago In May
on we'll prepared sandy loan. worked
down to fine filth, 1t being in good
state of fertility, sowing about
twenty pounds of seed to the
acre. We inoculated it from an
old field of alfalfa, where a few
plants remained, sowing the dirt
by hand Immediately before putting in
the seed. In this process we failed to
make the dirt meet, and when the
alfalfa got started we could readily
see where the soil was inoculated and
where not, by the color and size OF the
alfalfa.
However, we got a good stand and
it wintered all right. This spring the
non-inoculated strip offered the same
as it did last summer, and we GOV.
cred 1t with good stable manure, talk
ing dirt from a well inoculated spot
and covering each load before scatter
ing. In this process the dirt became
well mixed with the manure and
hence was evenly distributed over the
soil. From that time on the weakly
strip began to take on new life,
nodules appearing on the roots, and
when cut. which was on June IS, could
see but a mere trace of them, it being
practically all inoculated and making
about three tons of fine hay from two
acres of ground, first cutting.

All kinds of grain, if sound, possess
certain constituent properties, but diff
fer in nutritive value with their chem
ical composition. Oats and barley,
which are rich in protein compounds,
are best adapted to develop muscular
tissue and growth in young fowls.
Corn, which is especially rich in oils,
is best adapted for heating and fatten-
ing. Wheat and buckwheat, being rich
in gluten and albumen, are best adap-
ted for egg production.

TRIBAL TAX.
Instructions Sent to Enforce
 Its Collection.

Muskogee, I. T., April D. The Interior department has is- sued instructions to the Indian in- Speetor here to collect the tribal tax and 1t seems that the last re- sort of the people of the Creek nation to avoid this tax has been made and failed. The secretary of the Interior i'll q letter to the inspector states that the courts have decided that the tax Is valid and collectable, that taxes are due for two years and he sees no reason why they shall not be col- lected. In pursuance to this or der Inspector Wright issued all official notice to tile bu Siness men of tile Creek nation that the tax Is HOW due and must be paid. The tax goes into the hands of the Indian agent and refusal or failure. to pay is sufficient cause for the inspector to order any place of business closed until the tax IS paid.
 This tax applies to persons who are not Creek citizens. The an nual tax on merchandise Is one half of per cent on all goods handled. This means that the merchant must pay tax not on the amount of goods he has on hand at any one time in the year, but the amount he has purchased as shown by his bills through the entire year. This will mean a heavy tax ou merchants who handle goods rapidly. This tax has not been paid for two years and the accumulation will make the forced payment harder. In addition to the merchandise tax there Is license tax on newspa. pers, lawyers, doctors, black. smiths and all trades and profes- sious. This license Is from S1t to S25.
 Probably there will be trouble about the collection of this tax In all the nations it's payment has been resisted and there has never been a successful collection. In South McAlister the authori, ties threatened to close d store if the tax was not paid at certain time and the Indian police were sent to make good the threat. 4 crowd assembled when the police arrived and an injunction Wa, railroaded drought the court II time to stop the police from clos ing the place.

Dear Sir: Your business is, when a house burns down to give the owner some money to build new one. It is good business. Queer that the world got on so long without it.
 We paint the one that burnt down and the new one too. What is better, we paint the houses that don't burn down.
 You insure the houses that burn: we insure the houses that don t. You have the ashes and smoke: all the houses are ours.
 We paint lead and zine, Deyoe. We sell the paint to paint to painters; we don't paint.
 Lead-and-oil is the old fashioned paint. Devoe is zinc ground in with linseed oil; the best paint Tn the world and the cheapest, because 1t takes fewer gallons than mixed paints and it wears twice as long as lead d-and : oil. Nobody wants poor paint; there ls iots of it, though, in the world. A. NJ. Griffin, Plainteld, N. J., writes
