The "Mortgage Lifting Hog.

gu can talk all YOU want to
about the mortgage lifting
COW, but Charles Tatman, a
Lynch farmer realizes that there
are other things that will lift
mortgages. or rather keep them
off the farm. One day last week
Mr.. Tatman sold three hogs at
Glenburn which averaged $50
pounds, for which he received
$52 25. He still has sixteen
handsome Poland China and
Chester Whites, and one will
easily tip the scales at 500
pounds by Christmas. MIR. Tat
man began fattening the hogs at
threshing time on ground hulless
barley Until then the hogs ran
in the grain fields eating the
waste products of the farm, so
were really raised without much
expense.

ANIMAL STRIKERS.
Both Birds and Beasts Occasionally
Refuse to Work.

Both Birds and Beasts Occasionally
Refuse to Work.
Both birds and beasts occasionally go
on strike, according to observers. A
herd of horses will bunch together, neg
lect their food, become FESTIVE, neigh
and rub noses when in a field. The
outcome is that the herd will not allow
themselves to be saddled or harnessed
and will chase and attempt to kick the
attendants. Female birds take tan
trums and refuse to do the homework.
They desert their nests and leave their
g z to become cold and barren. The
male naturally becomes greatly con-
cerned, but with the bird and beast
creation the male will never attack the
female, so there is no remedy. War
blers and starlings are given greatly to
these strikes.
A species of black ants have little
yellow ants which do most of their
work FOR them. Occasionally the vel
low species will go on a strike. Their
food supply is cut off, but If that does
not avail the strikers are attacked or
another lot Of yellow ants are secured,
Even the rabbit is a hardened strik.
or. III rd55itc colonies the stronger rab'
bits do most of the burrowing, and as
often as perhaps ono in two years
these become discontinued and refuse
to work.

ago tile Argus Leader uoted thAttlt
Penns, huia RtiIroal c3mplny had
placed a contract for 10000 refriger
ator cars to lie delivered TO them a
fast as the shops could turu them
out. This was follow ii by the an
~nouncemeut that the Bihim ire q
Ohio bad placed d coutraa f1r a large
number Of these cars. Now comes
the news that the Rex I-llud has
already had 1000 of them delivered
AMI that more will be furnished, as
rapidly as they can b. turned out,
and that very soon the Rock Island
would be absolutely independent Of
the private car trust.
The Armour company seems to
have killed the goose thlt laid the
golden egg. IT has defeated itself by
an excess Of greed. The Armour
company for instance has bsen ch trg
ing $50 for icing a refrigerator car
from east Tennessee to Sioux Falls
Ii is declared that S35 wonld have
been an ample charge for this ser
vice. The Armour company put the
difference in its pocket, and used the
profit to still further strengthen its
grip upon the food supply of the
country. Through its monopoly Of re.
frigerated service, il was able to
make exclusive contracts with many
railroads under which every shipper
had to use Armour cars and pay such
rates as the Armour company "a
competitor should name.
The situation became iutolerdble.
The Armour company's greed knew
40 bounds. 1t became strong enough
not only to dictate to the shipper
but to dictate also to the carrier. Its
exclusive contracts robbed the ship
per on the one side and the carrier
on the other. Finally both shippers
and carriers rose 10 revolt. The ship
pers took the matter 10 congress, and
the carriers called their directors
into session. The private car trust
was thus doomed. The railroads are ut
last equipping themselves with their
own refrigeration. The Rock Island
for instance is able To ice a car from
Sioux Falls TO the Atlantic seaboard
for about $50 a car less than the Ar
monrs would charge for the same ser
vice. No money has been spared by
the Rock Islam and ether road, in
building refrigerator cars which ara
better than those put in service by
Armour company The new cars are
superior TO those furnished by the
Armour company. These roads viii
no longer pay tribute to the beef
trust, Their shippers will no longer
be robbed by the Armours. Osher
roads are following the example set.
They have 70 in order to retain their
business. So overwhelming IS the
sentiment against the private car mo-
nopoly that shippers will not route
their shipments over a road which
has an exclusive Armour contract,
which has had letters Of marque and
reprisal upon American commerce
for the past five years, will now have
10 give icing rates upon a competi
tive basis or get out OF business
