VARIETY FOR PIGS.
What Experts Prefer For fastnraee
 How to Keep Pigs Growing

How t8 Keep PIE. HroN Nih-+ By Colonel A. CoFFEY Before the Texas
 Faryaers' Congress
 I am aware that there is diversity of opinion among swine breeders and feeders as to what kind of pasturase is best. I think we should be guided mainly by the character of the soil in concluding what k best adapted 10 our section. and as l am 10 give what Is preferable for the black lands after mature consideration l have put alfal- ia pasturage at the top of the list bu1 I must admit that the hog does best on q variety of pasturage. In discus sion of this subject at q swine breed CTS meeting George |. Llilard said he preferred an oat pasturage te any otA- CT but admitted that wheat paSturage was excellent and d Bermuda grass plot an essential requisite. II. l.. Sin gleton. the Lone Star expert swine breeder. agreed that oats. wheat and Bermuda paSturage were ordinarily suf- ficient in the production Of cheap pork IT is true that the chances te raise pork al , cents per pound are greatly increased by adding alfalfa. especially where il grows so well as on our north Texas fertile black lands. It can't be grown where cotton dies or on black land with an understratum of white rock or gravel.
 I may be excused for giving my ex- perience with alfalfa. wheat. oats, sor- ghum. peas and rape on my deep rich black uplands in Collin county, Tex. l find that on land that will grow four tons of alfalfa I can graze twenty head of hogs per acre for six months h the year. wheat for five months for fifteen hogs per acre. oats for four months for twelve hogs per acre, sorghum two months seventeen hogs per acre and rape. it being my first crop, 1 can't tell what is approximately correct. Not withstanding l class alfalfa as a per feet pasture for hogs yet would not and could not dispense with wheat, oats. sorghum and pea pasturage.
 The farmer who expects to raise pork at ? to 212 cents. which is the mini mum cost. according to my estimate,
 
 the greater variety of pasturaee and by growing such valuable auxiliaries as rape. mangel beets, artiehokes Of the white kind and kershaws and pumpkins.
 To keep the pigs growing, especially your spring litter, there is nothing bet ter than grazing them first on green oats and ripe pea patch. l sow my wheat early in the fall, and after graz ing all winter in our mild climate and all spring until June plant one field in whippoorwill peas and another in sorghum. The former l graze. the lat ter cut and feed when seeding.
 To boil down the whole matter and get the eist Of the argument, with am pie pasturage. using corn as the main ration in fattening process, there is a margin of profit even al present low prices for hogs to be realized.

Affecting state Finances.

HELENA, Oct. l7.-Forner Govern
or B. F. White of Dillon, one Of the
executive board Of the state normal
school, against which the noted opin-
ion of Attorney General Galen, relat-
ing to investing school money in
bonds, was aimed, primarily proposes
to enjoin the state treasurer from pay.
ing out any money even for salaries
of state officers, on the ground the
state has exceeded it's constitutional
limit of Indebtedness and therefore
payment must cease.
This sensational piece of news came
to the capitol this afternoon in the
form of a letter from the Dillon man
to Treasurer Rice, telling of his pro.
posed action. He says on the show.
ing made in the attorney generals
opinion the states Indebtedness is
now $495, 600 or far ia excess of the
constitutional limit of 500, 600, and
no money should be paid out until the
law has been observed.
The state treasurer FASTENED into
the attorney generals Office with the
letter aud the official Immediately wen,
to work preparing a ruling upon the
soundness of the former governors

that if the Dillon man is standing on

Medicine and Ceremonial.

The physicians Of medieval Eng
and, who We're for the most part
monks. friars or Jews, possessed a
large assortment Of remedies, some Of
them borrowed from the Byzantine
physicians, others from the traditional
practice of the people. Christian ply
sicians, however. called religion to their
aid. None of their remedies was adj
ministered without ceremonial. While
the medicine was being compounded
the patient would say twelve times
over II of the psalms, beginning
"Miserere mel. Deus" then several
p~aternosters. then drink the dose and
wrap thyself up warm" or he would
sing the psalm, "Salvum Me Fac,
Deus,' then drink the draft out of a
church bell. the priest finishing the
cure with prayer.
DR.. Creighton remarks that, as the
maladies of the middle ages contained
an unusual element Of hysteria, the
ceremonial may not have come amiss
as an aid to the treatment. Physicians
gained considerable fees by their prac-
tice, which the people appear to have
grudged them. The satirical writer's
constantly accuse them of greed, but
these charges were probably owing to
the prevalence of the idea, not vet
extinct, that as medicine is from the
Lord God" the leech was not entitled
to a money payment.-London Spec
tatOr.

viii Pay State Warrants.

HELENA. Oct. lS. All warrants
drawn upon funds liz the state treas.
ury will be paid on presentation by
State Treasurer Rice as heretofore,
notwithstanding the warning issued
against such procedure by Former
Governor White. This, of course,
includes the salaries of state ofici ais.
In response to q letter from State
Treasurer Rice, Attorney General
Galen today rendered an opinion ad.
vising that official that the point made
by Mr.. White was not we'll taken, and
that he should pay the warrants as
presented. This advice will be fol-
lowed by the treasurer unless he Is
e%njoined by the former governor, who
signifed his intention of doing this 10
his letter.
Warrants % the amount OF $3.50, 1856
have been issued by the auditor upon
the several funds. Attorney General
Galen bases his opinion largely upon
numerous decisions holding that taxes
acc, ulng to a state may be considered
as cash, and that, therefore, in issu-
ing warrants against these, the state
Is not mourning a debt. Therefore,
he holds that Former Governor
Whites position that the state has
exceeded its limit of Indebtedness is
not we'll taken.

1t is reported from Glasgow that the
district court has decided the suit OF
the Coburn Cattle company against
the treasurer of Valley county in fav.
or of the plaintiffs. The latter claimed
that taxes to the amount Of $500 upon
cattle assessed in Valley county were
illegally collected, as the home ranch
of the Coburns is in Chouteau, and
the court sustained that claim. A
similar suit brought in Lewis and
Clark county some time ago by the
Flowerree outfit was decided the same
way.
