The man who starts off his pigs on
the corn ration about as soon as he can
after they are weaned is LAYING in a
store of trouble for himself later. There
is a trouble known to swine raisers as
contracted stomach, which results from
an improper ration. The animal is ap-
parentiy 'Of its feed" but the fact is.
the ration has been SO poorly balanced
that the stomach has not grown with
the growth of the rest of the body. If
the young pigs are to be allowed Il
range they will do more or less root
ing, eating of soil and sod; as this IS
their nature, 1t will not hurt them, but
if they are placed where one does not
wish the sod uprooted, then the ami
mails must be ringed. If middlings
and oilmeal are introduced with the
corn ration there will be considerable
less trouble. Some of the stock foods
on the market have their greatest value
to the swine raiser who does not feed
Il balanced ration and if these stock
foods can be obtained practically free
from drugs or condiments, they are
very valuable in such cases.

Treating Wrong Disease.

Many times women call on their family
physicians, suffering, as they imagine,
one from dyspepsia, another from heart
disease, another from liver or kidney
disease, another from nervous exhaustion
or prostration, another with pain here and
there, and in this way they all present
alike to themselves and their easy-going
and indifferent, or over-busy doctor, sep
arate and distinct diseases, for which he,
assuming them to be SUCH preScribeS his
pills and potions. In reality, they are all
only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the
cause OF suffering, encourages this prac
tice until large bills are made. The suf-
fering patient gets no better, but proba bly,
worse, by reason of the DELAY, wrong
treatment and consequent complications.
A proper medicine like DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, directed to the cause
would have entirely removed the disease,
thereby dispelling all those distressing
symptoms, and inStituting comfort in
stead of prolonged misery. 1t has been

Short Suggestions.

Keep honey in the dark. If exposed
to the light it will quickly granulate.
Finger marks on doors look very IN
slightly, but they may easily be re-
moved with a little borax and water.
A piece of charcoal placed upon the
shelves of the refrigerator will absorb
any unpleasant odors and keep it
sweet smelling.
Add a little washing soda to the
boiling water in which greasy dishes
are washed and they never will have
a streaky appearance.
\ delicious little sweet for ones

in the sun. Wet the spots occasion

Shot Big Mountain Lion.

One of the biggest mountain lions seen
in Oklahoma for years, measuring over
8 feet from tip to tip and weighing 175
pounds, was killed i'll Il cave in the gyp
hills, near here, by George Steubenville
of Okeene.
He came upon the lion uncxpectedly,
while exploring the cave with party of
friends, and was armed only with 4 %
caliber revolver. 1t had been known for
some weeks that a marauder of some
sort. presumably n mountain lion. was
playing havoc with poultry and calves.
1t had been seen disappearing in the
darkness several times, but no one had
gone near enough to get shot at it.
Steubenville vas the only one of the
party who was armed at all when they
came upon the beast, which was evident
~ prepared to put up a stiff fight. The
cave was dimly lighted by lantern car
ricd by the exploring party. which made
good craftsmanship difficult, but Steu-
benville was fortunate enough to hit the
panther in the eye. killing it instantly

ODD FORM OF TREE GRATING.
How Mexicans Have Secured Curious Ef
fects in Wood Coloring.

Some owners of forests of valuable
woods are trying experiments in the
southern part of Mexico with the walnut
trees. 1t is not generally known out
side the trade that there are many kinds
of walnut woods and that only part of
them have SO far been considered yalu-
able from commercial point of view.
Now the scheme is to make these less
valuable or worthless walnuts CONNER
cially valuable. And the process is a
curious one.
1t consists of opening the roots of
the trees and inserting one or more nuts,
which are quite small from the best va
rieties of walnut trees. 1t is said that
these nuts, which are carefully sealed in
with wax or a stiff, waterproof stopper,
mpart a new or closer grain and color
ing to the tree.
The southern Indians of Mexico have
for centuries been in the habit of secur-
ing curious effects in coloring on fine
woods by inserting in the above manner
nuts of other trees into the roots of the
living tree. An enterprising planter in
Tabasco has been following out this In
dian idea with curious results. He men
toned this to other laciendados, and now
several of them are experimenting with
the coarser kinds of walnut trees with
encourag ing results. = Pacific Fruit
