Hog. LIN the Orchard.

On the lower part Of one farm we
have two orchards, both in sod and of
old fashioned high headed trees. From
May to September we pasture hogs in
these orchards. They eat the grass
and windfall apples and with a fair
amount Of grain make good pork.
which pays fair profit. In addition
to this the good they do to the orchard
by their manure and roofing about the
trees is very evident. We do not
ring these hogs, but permit them to
root 1t is true that they tear up the
ground, but early In April or late in
March we scatter red clover and rape
seed In the mud and obtain fair catch
which gives good feed by May. l

, To the controversy on vitality In
milk DR.. w. G. Huntington of Mlchi-
gan furnishes the following In Hol-
stein Friesian Register:
The fat globules In Holsteln milk are
fner and more Intimately mixed with
the other solids than In the milk of
any other cows. and hence Holstein
milk Is best for all purposes for which
whole milk Is used.
Jersey milk Is here not considered
suitable for condensing because It IL
too inclined to churn simply from slop-
ping about In the can during trans
portation to the condensary, and the
tendency Of Jersey milk to separate
In the stomach Into melted butter and
hard indigestible curds Is the reason
why the puny Jersey calf so often
cannot live on the milk Of Its own
dam.
Milk which Is not at for the offspring
Of Its producer Is certainly not very
suitable for human consumption. and
there need be no mystery about the
recognized fact of greatest vitality In
Holstein milk.

mission From this time on the boat

by an agreement in which the gasoline
boatmen agree to construct landing

company the work of operating the
draw number of times every day to
let them through. For this privilege
they withdraw from the ferry business
and put the boat at work in transferr-
ing material. This boat has been
rebuilt several times in the last quarter
OF a century and has carried thousands
of cattle for shipment to the eastern
market. Earlier than that it was the
regular transfer boat for the Black
Hills stages and freight. For nearly
twenty years of the time it was in
operation Capt Horn, one of the best

on only short time before the death
of the veteran captain.

NEWS AND VIEWS

The very word farming has taken on
Z new meanings broader, deeper and
higher meaning. New requirements
are being demanded, better work Is be-
ing done, a higher standard Is being
set, and unaccomplished possibilities
rise to our view.
Facts convince the reading public so
much more quickly now than they did
q few years since. Let us have facts
about the farm, the garden, the or
chard and then-more facts.
The recent decision Of the supreme
court Of the United States denying to
fruit shippers the right to route their
shipments over connecting railroads In
the east has aroused citrus growers,

lation that will enable shippers to route
their product.
