Sixth avenue furrier. He is not a

That is because the furrier takes such
good care of him.
Storms are never allowed to beat
upon his glossy coat. He cannot be
humored to the extent of being brought
indoors during downpour because It
is his business to stand on a pedestal
outside and drum up trade, but the
next best thing is done for him. He is
provided with a raincoat 1t covers
him from snout to tail, so no matter
how hard the rain may beat or the
wind may blow he is insured from
damage thereby.

Buying Mixed Feeds.

Why any feeder of farm stock should
buy mixed grains is more than one can
understand, unless he is too lazy to do
the mixing himself. Time was when
screenings were just what was claimed
for them, the smaller grains which
dropped through the sleeves when
screening was done for the first grade
of grains. Now screenings are quite
likely to be the sweepings from the
mill floors and contain anything from
nails to tobacco guilds. Any Of the
grains used for feeding stock Of any
kind can be bought without mixture
and one can tell by examination If
they be reasonably pure. They cost
some more than the mixed feeds, to be
sure, but they are the cheapest in the
end, for less has to be fed.
OF all the bad mixed feeds the
ground feeds are the worst, for in this
state it is practically impossible to
know what is in the mixture, that is.
for the ordinary observer to ascertain.
In feeding poultry, it has been Demon
strated, time and again, that it pays
to pay twenty-five per cent. more for
the grains by themselves than to feed
the mixtures bought in that form

Murder Strangely Revealed.

murdered near Carlisle in Scotland
for the sake OF the little sum of money
in her possession. There was no clew

of CONCEALED blood. The notable feat
ure of this print took the form of two
peculiar indentations near the toe.
News of the clew got abroad, and
when the police pounced upon an en-
CINE driver whom they suspected,
they found that there had been with
drawn from the toe of one of his boots
two nails, the positions of which cor

Skim Milk ana Growinp pigs.

The cost Of growing pork in Canada.
according to the Ontario Station, is
given by the head of the station as
four and one-half cents from two
months old pigs till they are about
seven months old, when grain fed. He
says: Our experiments go to show that
by judicious use of skim milk in con-
nection with the grains or meals we
are able to produce a pound of pork
cent less than where the meals alone
are used. Our experience with the
raising of pigs has been that we can
keep good sow in perfect condition
a year round for $15. Estimating the
meal at one cent per pound $15 will
keep that sow a year. including cost of
pasture and allowing so much for
cost of building and everything else
barring the labor, which is not includ-
ed. From the average sow we may
anticipate eight pigs, if she produces
only one litter, and that reduces the
cost Of the young pig below So. If she
gives two filters, it costs somewhere
around 81 per pig. We may say 81 a
pig. If you add $3.50 pig to 81.
which we say is the cost of a 200
pound pig, you get SO, and the very
lowest price we have got this year
has been $40. There is still 81 clear
profit and the manure, and the manure
that comes from the pig is of a very
superior .quality.-Indiana Farmer.

When periods of stagnation occur be-

When development is unduly forced
