Clean yards Cor Swine.

Many of the hog yards found about
the country reek with filth. If swine
are to be kept healthy they should
be given clean yards. The hog Is not
by nature dirty animal, even If he
does wallow in mud. 1t is doubtful if
hog cholera would get start If the
hog quarters were never allowed to
become filthy. Many and many a
farmer has had his hogs become sick
merely from the condition of the hog
yard. When the rains fall such yards
are mass of mud. and when the
weather becomes dry they are filled
with fine dust which gets into the
lungs of the animals and causes
symptoms similar to pneumonia and
to hog cholera. 1t is possible on most
farms to have several hog yards, and
to keep the animals in one yard for
but short time Such an arrange
ment is a most satisfactory one.

A GOOD COW.
Story of One Animal of Jersey Strain
Who Paid Her Owner
Good Profit.

A dairyman who does not own many
cows, and those good ones, recently
gave the following figures concerning
one of his cows, pure-bred Jersey, to
the Ohio Farmer.
Her first calf was dropped in 1897
heifer-now valued member of the
herd. Her next calf came in 1898, with
a successor each year up to the pres
ent, making nine calves in all. Three
were females and six males. The heif-
ers have been retained in the herd and
the bulls sold at an average of $50
each Valuing the heifers at the same,
the nine calves represent an earning
Of $780, With her second calf she
made a test OF $50 pounds of milk in
seven days, churning IA pounds, four
ounces of butter. Her average milk
yield has been $500 pounds, sold to
creamery at an average of $1.20 per
100 pounds, an aggregate for eight
years of $500. Adding the value of the
calves to the amount received for milk,
her gross earnings amount to 81 $50.
These figures are very eloquent for the
good special purpose COW, but were not
given to me- nor do | record them, as
anything extraordinary. An annual
yield of $500 pounds of five per cent
milk, while indicating a COW of great
merit does not raise her above thou.
sands of other good COWS. She has
broken no records but she has kept
the faith. She has always had good
care, good feed and plenty of It, She
has been given a chance. She is a
COW Of robust constitution. a great
feeder, strong mixer and reliable
breeder.
Her feed had been the ordinary feed
of the herd. Pasture and soiling crops
in summer corn silage, mixed hay,
corn meal, wheat bran and oil meal in
winter. She has never been fed ex.
cessively,. but has never gone hungry
nor in any way known abuse.

of times.

A new mixer win at first get less
milk from COW than one to whom
the animal is accustomed.
Culls and ewes that do not own or
rear their lambs properly, may be
turned off in the same way.
Old sheep should now be separated
from the rest of the flock and given
extra care. They can be improved in
flesh and sent to market, where some
return can be realized from them

Every man that has large number
of hogs should endeavor to give them
a good pasture. Too many breeders
are contented with a hog pasture that
is covered with native grasses only.

The pieces b are cut one foot square.
To use the box, explains the Farm
and Home, strings are laid across, as
shown by dotted lines. Then the fleece
is placed upon the center piece and
the edges folded in. The two sides, a,
are drawn upright in position and
then the two sides, b, are forced up
ward and in until they are perpen-
dicular. The small clamp. c, may
then be hooked over the sides to hold
them solid. The fleece may then be
brought down into the box and the
strings tied. 1t makes a compact bum

Fare.esl Meal Inspection.

Farcsc&l Meat Inspection
A constant menace to public life
and health in the stockyards OF Chi
cago is shown up by DIR. w. X.
Jaques, formerly director of the Chi
cago Laboratory. and in charge of the
meat inspection at the stockyards, who
tells In Worlds Work of the ineffi-
cheney and corruption of the local in
spection. Among other things, he
says: During the first month in
which | was city director, one meat
inspector made only one condemna-
ton for that month, and that of an
immature calf. Another inspector
made no report to me of any work
done during my entire term Of ONCE,
and was powerless TO compel him
to do 80 because of his political back
ing. II Is needless to say that he
drew his salary regularly. Still an
other meat inspector was engaged In
a profitable side line of buying quar-
antined beef for packers. The &C
curacy and thoroughness of the work
OF government inspectors can be
judged when 1t is estimated that from
1000 to 1900 cattle are often killed
under the eye OF single inspector In
a day from eight to ten hours. Walk
ing back and forth through the kill
ing beds, the inspector can give only
the briefest glance at the animals that
are being converted into food In this
glance he is supposed to detect evil
dences of disease which Psychologists
may require hours to find. 1 took
pains to ascertain If the government
inspection were sufficient to guard
the public. To this end l made fire.

Hanging In the room in full sight, I'M

two sides of beef having on them the
slashes of the state inspector and the

the meat was not under lock and seal,
as required by government regula-
tions, nor was there anyone to pre-
vent its being carried off. / sent one
of my inspectors to a slaughter house
with orders to kerosene all meat he
found unfit for use. He returned in
a state Of great indignation and ex-
element, saying that the men fought
hard and long to keep him from using
kerosene. why" said he. Il drew
