ATISSld.
The report Of farm work for
week entering tonight is Just
reverse OF last week. Al
ost the entire week was lost on
count of rain. The situation
as gotten beyond my exper-
snce. I have never seen the
rairies so badly behind. In
ONE neighborhoods it looks as
5hough the farms have been
abandoned. Ia the the event of
a dry spell in the near future
means a poor and late stand, and
an early fall means a short crop.
1 mean the Gotten crop of course.
for we have plenty of time for
corn.
On my way to Columbus early
this morning I passed a steam
cotton gin. The negroes seemed
to have up some excitement
around the gin, and on being
asked what was up, remarked,
The boss is up in the gin; just
listen how he is going on" I
did listen, and said l. I never
did hear Bob Taylor speak, but
if that isn't him III be blessed. "
But after investigating I found it
was a gentleman from town
practicing a lecture he expected
to deliver soon, and if he is half
as eloquent and interesting to
an audience as to those empty
walls, [ would advise everyone to
hear him. I informed the ne
groes that the boss was all right
and rode on to town, and while
there [ heard Hardscramble y
get into an argument on the re
duction of cotton with my friend
jim Vaughan, from Wood.

Treatment of
Brood Sows

The annual loss of brood sows is a
serious matter to the industry, while
that of young pigs is simply disastrous.
Last spring we visited a stockman who
had saved but five pigs out of some
fifty farrowed on his place. In addi-
tlon to this loss FIVE OF the sows had
died. The pigs mostly came dead or
died within few hours after birth.
The sows we have been speaking OF
were heavily fed on corn, which fat
tens and constipates, and were not Civ
en- exercise enough to keep their blood
circulating. Constipation was the nat
ural consequence. and where it exists
1t is useless to expect healthy pigs.
Where, on the other hand, sows are
fed some succulent food In addition to
little corn and heterogeneous foods,
such as mlddlings. bran, oilmeal, dried
blood meal or tankage, and are made to
take plenty of exercise every day, their
muscles are kept in healthy condition
and their bowels regulated as they
ought to be. Where this is the case
the SOW gets ready to farrow naturally.
Let the pregnant SOW be made to go
outdoors every day to stir about and
work for her living. Sprinkle grain
under deep straw or litter in a large
shed when the weather is bad and have
the sows root for 1t there. This roofing
insures exercise of about every muscle
of the body. The amount of grain TAX
en- in the exercise time Is unimportant.
The food used should simply be some
thing that the sows like. Corn will do
as well as anything and will not hurt
in cold weather when plenty of eXer-
else is taken. AS succulent food ST.
lage has been used to good advantage
In place of roots, and clover hay is also
useful cut up and wetted with water
and then mixed with little meal. Slop
may also be made laxative by the addi-
tion of IL small quantity Of fiaxseed meal
daily. and at the slightest sign of cos
tiveness it is an easy matter to mix
small quantities of EPSON salts in the
slop until the bowels are properly regu-
lated.-Live Stock Report

Training the Colt.

If horse is kindly treated and made
a pet he becomes very fond of his mas
ter. says Farm journal. But his affec-
tion is different from that of a dog,
which continues to love his master
even though the latter abuses him
greatly. Rough. unkind treatment will
quickly estrange the affection of q
horse. His good horse sense discerns
no particular reason why he should
love a master who habitually maltreats
him. A horse trainer should bear two
things in mind: To keep the animals
affection, for without it his obedience
Is forced and headway in training is

successfully to oppose his will to yours

But only get blur of noise.

And then he passes through the car
The same weird sounds repeating:
''This place Is Hi-lo-jaclS-itee.
Ten minutes here for eating!'
The language that he lightly slings
Is really quite wonder.
A cross between a crosscut saw
And very distant thunder.
And If the passenger can guess
The station Ia is lucky.
Or know II he's in Idaho
Or down in old Kentucky.
Where does he get these twistct

And draw out several yards of sound

A HOLE IN THE GROUND.
Can We Build II or Must We Say That
We Did It2


"Can we build a hole in the
ground" asked a man who takes an
interest in the words we use and the
changes which have taken place in
our language. 81 think not. Yet
we speak of building a canal, and
most persons understand thoroughly
what we mean. The word build
has undergone many changes, and it
now means many things. | said
Just now we could not build a hole
in the ground. l was thinking of
the purer meaning of the word build
when / said that. OF course we
can build a hole in the ground.
Often when we dig we build We
build graves. l suppose it would
not be wholly wrong, in view of the
latter meaning of the word build
to speak Of building a well or a
ditch or any other thing which re-
quires digging and labor of con-
structive sort. Build apparently
comes from the Anglo-Saxon bold,
meaning a house, word of Scandi-
navian origin and formed by adding
ID to the Icelandic word Dol, which
means a house or farm. Skeat de-
clares the word is really Scandina-
Wan. The middle English-that is,
the English from the thirteenth to
the fifteenth centuries inclusive, for
the word build was 'bulden, and
late Anglo-Saxon gave it as 'byldan.'
'To build was a more literal mean
ing of 'bulden' and 'byldan.' The
word 'bol' is found in the old Swed-
ish, meaning a house, dwelling,
while in Danish 'bol means a small
farm. The word DO appears in old
Swedish, meaning to live, abide,
dwell. At any rate, the word build
has broken from its old moorings,
and since we understand what is
meant by the expression build ca
NAL which is in its physical aspect
merely digging a ditch or a hole in
the ground, there can be no serious
objection to the use of the word
build in this connection. Words
must change as men and conditions
change, and after all these changes
in the meaning of words form ono
of the surest signs of the progress
we make" - New Orleans Times.

Horses should be given the feed
which will impart strength and vital
ity, says American Agriculturist. The
best grain for this purpose is oats.
Better horses can be had by feeding
less corn and more oats, together with
good hay and grass Corn for young
and growing horses and also for work
horses is too heating. Oats more than
any other grain give life to horse.

Sheep are really long lived animals,
and with good care they have been
known to live and bring lambs up to
fifteen years old THIS age Is reached,
however, only under the best care and
special feeding. pasturlng is not so
conducive to long life as special feed
ing, in which roots are used abundant
ly. On the whole. 1t is not profitable to
keep sheep oyer six or seven years,
which is about the average life Of 4
sheep under good ordinary care.
