Cure for Hog Cholera.


After many years of experimenting
for the cure Of hog cholera the De-
partment Of Agriculture has worked
out method which gives promise of
being an effective remedy. The meth
cd consists in the injection of serum
from the blood Of an immune hog, after
the immune has been treated similarly
with the serum from hogs affected with
the disease.
DIR. Marion Dorset, Of the Bureau Of
Animal Industry, who has worked out
the process, has had 1t patented in the
name Of the department and given the
Invention without price to the coun-
try. In this way the possibility of any
one monopolizing the new treatment
will be avoided. 1t Is estimated that
the money loss from hog cholera
reaches $15,000.0OO annually.

The Scrap Drawer.

Every woman knows the value Of a
scrap-bag to hold bits of silks. ribbon,
lace and other "left-overs" from dress
making, which may be useful for patch
ing or for some other purpose. But
where a bag Is used the coveted piece
is sure to be down at the bottom. so
that 1t is necessary to dump out the
entire contents of the bag every time
something Is wanted out Of 1t. There
fore 1t is better to devote a spare draw
er in a bureau to scraps. Here are va
rious rolls of laces and ribbons. each
wrapped and pinned Into tight bun
dies, may be spread out SO that each
one may be easily recognized. A bag
for buttons, old fringes and the like
may be included among the contents OF
the drawer. which proves a boon to all
who have tried II.

Rest for the Mind.

There are various ways of resting the
mind. According to a certain physi
clan, the most effective position tc
sleep, for obtaining intellectual rest, |:
to keep the head low and the feet
slightly elevated.
Failing all this, the body should al
any rate be horizontal, SO as to lrri.
gate the brain we'll. The habit of sleep.
ing with the head low and the feet high
Is also said to be remedy for brain
troubles and certain internal maladies
This wise son of Aesculapius advises
sufferers to go in for his discovery grad
ually, which would seem but reasonable
to such decorous persons as have en-
deavored to keep their feet down In
the world.

OF the skirt matches exactly one of
the prominent tones in the plaid.
Wide silk bands, dyed exactly the
same shade as the cloth, are used on
the new pale gray shades. Ecru lace
and silver traceries are also used on
gray gowns.
1t is well to have some sort Of sus-
pender or pinafore waist made with
the skirt suit They have many varia-
tons, none of which requires much
extra materials, and give the effect of
quite a distinct toilette when the coat

Mercerized thin cottons make charm

give the greatest possible effect for the
least expenditure of time in making,
since their floral designs dress up the
frock SO much that little other decora-
ton Is needed.

Little house gowns require especial
care in their trimmings, which should
give the touch of style that all costumes
demand. A few velvet buttons or those

Of lace, ribbon girdles, sashes, etc.,

Best Crop for Pigs.

In the spring and summer, rye and
clover are used for pastures until the
pigs weigh about eighty-nve to 100
pounds. Then barley Is added until
some early variety Of nint or sweet
corn Is ready. Only a small field of
this last is necessary, or an amount
sufficient to carry the pigs until the
field corn Is dentlng. Then the pigs
are turned In small areas of the field
corn at time. until they are fat. By
fencing in and using these crops in this
order the cost Of growing pigs is re-
duced to a very low figure. We know
of several farmers who are following
this practice and are highly pleased
with 1t.

Keeping Apples.

Burylng them in the ground proves
successful when other, methods fail.
provided every apple is sound and free
from blemish when harvested. The
reason Is that temperature In the
ground or mound In which the apples
are kept varies but little. AMI they are
always cool. The same results will be
obtained II cold and even tempera-
ture can be secured In a cellar.

Fixed wages for days work" Is
not the proper mode Of contracting.
There is as much difference In days
work between individuals as In the
value of the products Of the farm. Nor
can any method be devised for deter
mining the value Of days work on q
farm until the labor has been perform
ed. Wherever work can be done by
the piece II should be the rule. though
this cannot well be the case on a farm.

Raising seed Corn.
EsSSss5SSSS3

| ha1stnS seed corn.
The best way Of raising corn for
seed, as followed In the West, says G.
w. Morrill, In Tri-State Farmer, is to
prepare a seed bed or testing ground
or from one to two acres far removed
from other fields. To begin with, no
ear should be used which is imperfect
from which to select grains for the
seed crop, selecting such type of corn
that you wish to grow, the work of
selection should be followed year after
year, selecting the best ears that show
an improvement over previous years.
Any plant that Is deficient in any re-
quirement should not be allowed to de-
velop tassel, and especially a barren
stalk.
As to corn feeding. the seed plots
should not suffer for want of plant
food. From field experiments with fer
tilizers on corn in the West last year,
on soils of average fertility, a higher
per cent of potash than ordinary fer
tilizer contains gave remarkable re-
suits and would undoubtedly give SIM
liar results on the average lands Of
Georgia. In Georgia last year were
used more fertilizers with corn than
was ever used in years before, and with
proper fertilizers and more attention
to the selection Of seed, and intensive
culture, there Is no doubt or reason
why the average yield of well-bred corn
should not be increased in the South,
and especially Georgia. ,ta...s.r .

Agriculture has demonstrated that

and the time 1t reaches storage than 1t

to have been a mistake. Don't do this i;

lance Is great. Many of the best ap-
pie handlers want their fruit in storage
before night of the day 1t is picked. If
at all possible. and there Is no doubt

Record Price for f..,a.

The following from Orange Judd
Farmer shows what profits some men
undertake to make farming:
Ten acres of farm land In Christian
County, Illinois, sold for $4,000 a few
days ago, or $500 an acre. True, the
land lies just outside the city limits
OF the county seat, but it is not TO be
cut into city lots. 1t will be used for
raising fruit and vegetables. In other
words, the purchaser, W. o. Simpson,
expects to make the interest on his
$500 land, and considerable profit be-
sides.
This shows what careful, intelligent
farming and gardening will do. If Mr..
Simpson can make money on his high
priced land, need his neighbors on
farms equally productive feel discour-
aged? We In this country must prac-
tice intensive agriculture. There Is
abundant evidence that this will pay.

HOW CAN HE DO 1T {?
Some Interesting Facts About Coffee
offending Most Anybody Can
"Mix" It, But There Is Vast Diff
ference in Results,

Many people wonder how the Sim
clair Tea and Coffee company can give
fifty-cent premium with dollars
worth of goods. Because the premium
IS actually worth all that is claimed for
it, they often think the goods them
selves must be of inferior quality Yet,
If they will be honest with themselves
they will acknowledge that the goods
are worth every cent they cost, say
nothing of the premium. There are
two strong reasons why this company
can give these values. The first and
most important is the ability to blend"
coffee. This is knowledge acquired
only by long experience and natural
ability in that direction. Many people
think Offending coffees is merely a
mixing" of high and low grade cof-
fees. Nothing is farther from the
truth. The mixing" Of two high
grade coffees may make miserable
connection that one would not drink at
any price, while it is possible to blend
medium and low priced coffee into
delicious drink. Here is where Sim
clair's experience comes in. He knows
the character of every kind of coffee
in the green and roasted state. and he
knows by long experience and careful
study just how to blend the different
