THE LITTLE PIGS.

Hints on Handling the Mother HOG
and Her New Family.
In very cold weather 1t may be nee.
essary for few days to remove the
pigs to a warm place after they have
sucked to prevent chilling. AS new
born pigs suckle as often as every two
hours during the day, this entails con-
siderable Inconvenience, but 1t is time
well spent and may mean the differ
ence between profit and loss to the
breeder. The pigs are soon able to
fight their battles with the cold unaid-
ed by any but their own warmth and
that of the dam.
For the first twenty -four hours the
SOW should. as rule, have no feed and
viii need none. If, however. she shows
signs of hunger a thin slop Of bran and
shorts or a thin oatmeal Cruel may be
given. Tepid water should be given to
drink as the SOW wants 1t. Never give
cold water. The feeding for the first
three or four days should be light and
carefully given, and the time consumed
In getting the SOW on full feed should
be from week to ten days. depending
on the size and thrift Of the litter. The
first feed should be very light and in
the form of the thin, warm slop al
ready mentioned, working gradually to
full feed.
No time should be lost after farrow-
ing In getting the sow into the open
air. or course when pigs are farrowed
during the cold months care will be
needed, and 1t may be necessary to let
the pigs reach the age OF two weeks
before turning them out. They can,
however, get considerable exercise In
the piggery or In the lot with the sow,
and there Is often lot adjoining a
barn that Is sunny and. sheltered from
cold winds where the new family may
be turned for exercise. Avoid particu.
larly allowing the pigs to run out dur
ing a cold rain. They are especially
tender during the first weeks.--G. NJ

The Pennsylvania experiment station

clusions as the result Of its test of feed
ing exposed steers against well shell
tered ones from Nov. to March Z,
l904-O0:
First. The general result of this ex-
pertinent Is at variance with those OF
the two preceding ones in the fact
that the steers outdoors ate less food
per pound gain than the ones inside.
Second 1t confirms the result of the
work OF 10000 In that the actual
amount OF food eaten by the outside
lot was less than that eaten by the In
sida lot.
Ihird.--It confirms the results OF
former trials and shows that the gains
made by fattening steers are not In
creased by warm quarters 1t is not
possible to have stables too cold for
fattening steers In this climate, pro-
vided they are kept dry and well bed.

Fourth.--It is possible TO keep out
door yards from becoming excessively
muddy by the use of soft coal cinders.
A shed In well drained yard can be
kept practically as dry as the interior
Of the barn, provided plenty of bed
ding is used and the manure is remov.
ed sufficiently often.

A FEW weeks ago We mildly sug.
gested that the greatest danger in the
pathway of Senator CANDLES reelec-
tion was the active support OF his demo-
cratic fool friends. This made the
Sioux City Tribune so mad that they
have cut us off OF their exchange list.
With fear and trembling We now look
for the ak to fall from the hands OF the
exchange editor of the Sioux Falls
Press. Only one calamity that we can
imagine would be any greater. That
is, for these democratic sheets, which
are at present so interested and active
in the republican campaign in this
state, to renew their agitation OF a
couple OF years ago in favor of sending
this humble editor to the state senate.

Gov. ELRoD, in his speech at South
Shore, took occasion to go into Mr..
Crawford's record on the railroad as
sessment matter. From that record
he showed that, in 1885, the last year
of Mr.. Crawford's membership in the
state board, he was absent from every
session except the two at which rail-
road assessment was considered. Al
one of these sessions Mr.. Crawford
secured the reduction OF the assess
ment Of the Northwestern road between q
Watertown and Gary from $1,000 TO
90, 700 per mile. Oa various occasions
in previous years the records show that
Mr.. Crawford made several motions TO
reduce the assessment OF different pOr.
tions of the G. g. N. w. railway. Those
who are urging that railroad assess
ment should be increased, should stop
long enough to ask themselves if Mr..
Crawford as governor would be any
more likely to urge such increase than
Mr.. Crawford as attorney general has
been in the past.

The Nesos has not made a fight
against state or county official. We
simply do not want Senator Gamble
slaughtered. He has done SO much
for our state. is an honorable patriotic
'cilizan. No stauncher republican has
ever breathed the air Of South Dakota
than Robert j. Gamble. He has stood
in the past and is standing today,
shoulder TO shoulder with President
Roosevelt. We have an opportunity
to show our appreciation for this true
friend of the common people and We
can only do so by sending a Gamble
delegation to the slate conven tion. -

Some people think they can be
Gamble men and not Crawford men
This is impossible gentlemen. If
Crawford will and il Crawford
Ii would not be much of a man
who would go into combine and then
turn the combine down to save himself
and we do not think Senator Gamble
will ever do any thing of that kind.
He has formed an alliance with Craw-
ford and the insurgent ele ement and he
will either go down with them or he
will win with them. Had the Senator
made an independent canvass his
chances would have been far better to
win than they are now, Crawford did
not have enough votes In the last state
convention TO win out and he will have
less this year.-LynaG1a County argus
There is much truth in the above,
in fact we are inclined to agree with
the most OF it. The COURIER never
theless has supported Senator Gamble,
like few other republican news
papers, while denying support to
Crawford and his combine. We do not
believe, and never have, that Senator
CANDLES senatorial prospects wou Id
be advanced by electing Mr., Crawford
governor. For two years we have
been warning the friends of Mr.. Gam.
BILE that Mr.. Crawford would use the
coveted governorship as stepping
stone to the senate, fact OF which Mr..
Gamble is very we'll aware. Like the
editor of the Argus we are sorry that
Mr.. Gamble did not make his cam,
paign entirely independent OF any un-
derstanding, expressed or implied,
with Mr.. Crawford. It looks more
and more as though Mr.. Gamble would
go down with the rest of the insurgent
gang, in which event the friends OF
Mr.. Crawford surely will have no
right to complain that the game OF
politics impelled MIR. Gamble to cast n
his lot with them.

To Break N Cold.

First of all, take piping hot bath.
a good laxative at night and hot lem
onade or steaming bowl of catnip or
other herb tea. Then get into bed,
cover up warm and stay there II pos
sible until sure the cold is broken. Ex-
treme caution must be observed after
the profuse perspiration which follows
the hot bath. In case one must go out
the next day vigorous alcohol rub
should be taken in the morning in or
der to get up good circulation.

To Mhiten the Teeth.

AT times in spite OF all ones efforts
there is an increase of tartar on the
teeth, making them look yellowlsh In
stead of polished and pearIy, and the
best OF tooth powder seems then to
lose its efficacy. To remedy this dip
an orange wood stick into fine wood
ashes and rub the teeth both on the
inner and outer surfaces, when the
tartar will disappear as though by
magic. The operation should not be
repeated too frequently, as 1t is apt to
be hard on the gums.
