A Ratlnn For Swine.

The argument that swine can be
fed more cheaply on corn than on any
thing else Is fallacious If one counts for
any value the increased gain in q given
period under the other ration. True,
If corn is low in price and other ratlons
excessively high, then the corn is the
cheaper food provided the carcass
brings a fairly high price. 1t has been
demonstrated repeatedly that in most
localities the ideal balanced ration for
swine during the winter is one-half
middlings and one-half cornmeal, vary
ing the ration by an occasional feed of
corn on the ear without, of course,
the middlings.
A still cheaper ration, giving quite MS
good results, consists of one-thlrd soy
bean meal and two-thirds cornmeal,
provided the former can be bought at
a fair price. 1t has been proved be-
yond question that an entire corn ra-
ton lays the animal open to various
diseases, and that, beyond a certain
point, the exclusive corn ration adds
practically nothing to the weight of the
animal so that nothing is gained in
feeding more than is necessary to sus-
tain life. Try one of the balanced ra-
tlons suggested, and you will find it
profitable, as others have.-Indianapo-

to serve as a settling chamber In the
sides of the funnel are openings COW
cred by screens or strainers, while an
other screen extends across the top of
the funnel.
In use the milk received in the fun
mel will pass through the upper funnel
screen into the interior of the strainer
and then into the settling chamber.
The heavier particles of foreign matter
will gravitate into and remain in the
settling chamber, while the lighter par
ticles will be caught by the strainers
as the milk falls out of the funnel into
the pail. This attachment can also be
used as a ventlating cover for a milk
can by inverting it and placing it Oh

why He studied the Bible.

The Rev. Russell Bigelow Pope. of
the Methodist Episcopal Church. who
recently died in his slxtleth year, ac-
complished that which seems almost to
be beyond belief He read the Bible
through 100 times, thirty eight times
In one year, and once in one day. He
made his own concordance, and could
give almost any chapter and verse in
any part of the Bible at call. For forty
years he read the Greek Testament
through carefully once quarter. His
reason for this close and accurate
searching of the Scriptures is given by
DR.. Pope in the Christian Advocate, as
follows: "Once upon a time / called
at drug store and asked for n certain
medicine. The clerk went to the back
of the store and laid his hand on the
unmarked vial. How do you know
that this is the medicine l inquired
for?' He replied, L know my store
and then I made up my mind that l
would know the entire Word like that"

Where fowls are confined in rather
close quarters during the summer It is
a good plan to arrange so that the
poultry yard can be cleaned or else
divided In two or more sections so that
one can be renovated while the other
is being used. If the yard is of the
ordinary garden soil it should be
spaded under to the depth OF the
spade after first cleaning out the worst
of the filth. Then SOW this space to
oats or rye and allow 1t to grow for
two weeks; then turn the poultry into
this yard and treat the other yard in
the same manner.

Not all dairymen can have the Bah
cock test, but none of them is too poor
TO buy scales and weigh the milk. Yes,
needs repeating until every farmer in
the country who keeps cows and dis
poses of the milk in any form, has
learned to tell the robber cows from
the profitable ones. If many of us are
improperly feeding the cows, more of
us are feeding with reasonable cor
rectness. and then losing the profit be-
cause we are feeding cows that do not
give profitable results. An accurate

Then there is little machine known
as feed grinder, which it viii pay
to have in the stable and TO use for
grinding feed for all the stock. One
can be had for from $50 to $50, which
will grind the feed for large number
of animals and be good exercise for the
horses. A live man with little capital
can buy one of these grinders and
make its cost by grinding for neigh
bors at small toll. A German dairy
man worked this plan and obtained. as
tell, nearly enough grain to feed his
own herd of seven cows. 1t may be
possible in a progressive nelghborhood

Acting under orders from Chiel

at SO Catherine street, was closed
yesterday by Patrolman Meshrow
Fecyoz, it seems, some time age
sold the saloon to John Ondercak. An
application was made to the excise
board for transfer by Fecyoz. The
board granted the transfer and On
dercak took possession, still owing
Fecyoz some money for the saloon.
During the past two weeks, it is said,
Ondercak and Fecyoz have been quar-
relling over the matter. which re-
suited yesterday in Ondercak receiv-
ing his money back, and the former
owner again taking possession. On
dercak at once went to the police
station and said that Fecyoz had re-
purchased the saloon, and was con-
Quoting it under his name. What he
wished to tell the police, he stated,
was that he would not be responsible
for anything Fecyoz might do while
running the place. AS it is unlawful
for Fecyoz to conduct a saloon un-
der another party's license, Chief
Burke ordered it closed at once.
Fecyoz will probably apply for a
transfer at the next meeting of the
excise commissioners.
