HINTS FOR FARMERS


Pig raising Is no doubt very profit
able business where cheap food can be
had from city garbage, else so many
of the extensive farmers near the cities
would not persist in swine breeding
year after year. So well, in fact, does
the business pay that the nearby farm
ers sometimes express wonder that
more is not done in the pig raising line
on the back farms, where the food cAn
be raised very cheaply and the swine
pastured a good part of the time, and
all without the annoyance to neighbors
sometimes caused in thickly settled dis
tricts. A good market can be found
almost anywhere for young pigs Of
common stock, while pure breds can be
sold at correspondingly better values
by those who have the knack of work
ing up trade in such lines.-American

make a thick pudding or mush. These

a quick spring growth necessary for

they must be well fed, regularly fed

He Never Blamed the Booze.

He took bottle up to bed,
Drank whisky hot each night;
Drank cocktails in the morning,
But never could get tight.
He shivered in the evening,
And always had the blues
Until he took bowl or two
But he never blamed the booze.
His joints were full of rheumatic:
His appetite was slack;
He had pains between the shoulders;
Chills ran down his back.
He suffered with insomnia;
At night he couldn't snooze.
But he never blamed the booze.
His constitution was ran down
Ut was OverTOrk, he said;
His legs were swelled each morning,
And he often had swelled head,
He tackled beer, wine, whisky,
And If they didn't fuse
He blamed IL on dyspepsia
But he never blamed the booze.
He claimed he hardly slept at night,
And always had bad dreams;
He claimed he often lay awake
Till early sunrise beams.
He thought it was malaria
Alas! twas but ruse,
He blamed it on most everything
But he never blamed the booze.
His liver needed scraping,
And his kidneys had the gout;
He swallowed lots of bitters,
Till at last he cleaned them out,
His legs were swelled with dropsy,
Till he had to cut his shoes;
| Then he had the tremens,
And he tackled rats and snakes;
First he had the fever,
Then he had the shakes,
At last he had a funeral,
And, to give him his just dues,
The epitah carved for him was
"He never blamed the booze"
