much better for them than to be lying
at her side getting too fat and keeping
quiet. When she Is out TOR some time
and returns they will start up to meet
her, Put a little shelled corn on the
floor OF the pen and when she returns
and begins to pick it up they will be-
gin to pick up the kernels and chew
them In imitation OF her. When she
is out put q shallow trough In the pen,
scald some middlings and stir in some
sweet milk, sweeten with black strap
molasses and put 1t In the trough
while warm, Drive the pigs carefully
over the trough, and they will smell the
molasses, PUT their noses In the
trough and begin to eat. Let: the
mother clean UP the trough when she
comes lin, and when she goes out af-
ter the noon meal feed the pigs again
and keep up feeding them two or three
times per day Feeding the pigs not
only starts them, but it relieves the
mother very much. Pigs fed in this
manner do not have The thumps., the
difficulty that carries off large per-
centage OF the little fellows before they
are weaned.
After the, pigs have been fed in the
trough a week or two, coarser feeds,
cam be mixed with the middlingsy and
sour milk used in place OF the sweet.
Feed regularly in a clean trough just
all they will eat up clean, and give
them a, run outside where they can get
some grass and take plenty Of exercise
at the same time. BY the time they
are eight weeks old they can be Weaned
without any check in their growth and
will probably. weigh fifty to sixty
pounds each, depending on the skill
of the Feeder:
Feed a variety Of feeds and do not
depend too much on corn. If 1t is on
I the dairy farm the ration can be so
mingled--milk meal, middlings- with
grass, rape, sweet corn and peas that
the growth will be continuous and
rapid. In fact, the man who has the
milk is equipped to make pigs pork
class OF farm AT the end Of six
months the pigs ought to weigh 200
to 250S pounds each and be ready for
market. The lighter ones can go TOR
first class, tender, juicy bacon and the
heavier ones fed along a little time
for mess pork. In this manner two
crops o.. pigs can be fed off each year
at a small. cost and yield q large
profit:
Another point ought not to be over
looked, and that is that pigs make
their growth and gain iu weight while
young at much less cost per hundred
than they will later in life. Again, the
muscles are developed while the ami
mai is growing, and by liberal feeding.
at that time and allowing plenty of
exercise better quality Of meat is
produced than there would be If fed
slowly during the growing period and
heavy later, or, as we usually express
lit, fattened for market. If we wish to
make weights cheapest, get the most
for the feed consumed and produce
class Of meat that will meet the de-
mands of the most fastidious and ex-
acting customers, begin early with the
pigs and keep them improving until
the day they are taken to market.

died without warning and without pain
while at work; that is, he was sitting
on the lawn by his flower bed, .too weak

his gardener just how to do It. We
hdd never beeniwarned of heart failure
but he Is gone. He will now rest for
ever and the absolute repose which
rests on his countehance as he lies in

Profit. in Piu...

OF the different kinds of stock raised
on the farm there Is none other that
is despised, abused and neglected as
the pigs, yet they are kept in greater
the pigs. and yet they are kept In
greater or less numbers on nearly all
the farms in all parts of the coun-
| try, and yield more profit and quicker
returns than any other stock reared
and kept ON the farm. They are a
necessity in many cases, kept to con-
sumo much that would otherwise be
wasted and convert 1t into a mar
ketable product Yhey make more
pounds Of meat for given quantity
OF feed consumed make it in a shorter
period of time, and the demand takes
it at a higher price than meat from
the cattle and sheep when shrinkage
iii dressing Is considered, which leaves
the greater profits in their favor.
On our large farms in great por-
ton of..the country, and especially in
the west, where shock corn Is fed to
cattle, the pigs are kept to follow the
cattle to consume the imperfectly
masticated and undigested grain that
would be absolutely wasted IL 1t were
not for them, and In such cases the
cost of their feed cannot be counted
against them. while the returns which
they give may be counted as most all
profit. Very many feeders consider
themselves very fortunate if the cattle
fed pay for the feed consumed and
leave the hogs that follow TO repre-
sent the profits on both.
Wien the general farmer the pigs
are useful in several ways There are
odds and ends that would be wasted
were 1t not for them, and I'M many
cases, altho the little grain needed to
finish them for market is given be-
grudgingly, when the sum total of the
proceeds of the different things sold
from the farm Is footed up the pork
item stands out conspicuous as one
OF the chief, resources Of income They
have taken the wastes from the ta-;
Bile, the dish water, the skim milk,
buttermilk, the inferior class Of grains.
the gleanings of the grain stubble,
the inferior fruit from the orchard
and the little grass afforded In the
odd corners in which they have been
kept and their. meat, which weighs
almost as heavy as lead and IS both
palatable and nutritious, sells at a
good price and Is most all clear gam.
On the dairy farm the pigs are an
almost, insensrable adjunct, an imper-
alive necessity. and can be made to
yield a large income. The. skim milk
or whey whichever one has can be
utilized to good advantage to aid in
the growth and development of the
pigs. which can be kept in large num-
bers and very profitably, too. for the
milk or whey mingled with meal and
middlings, while they have a run OF
grass. make an almost ideal ration and
will produce an excellent quality Of
meat at low cost, which will swell
the income when added to that from
the butter or cheese.
In seeking to get the greatest profit
from the pig crop there are two points
that should be enphasized-giving
them an early start and then keeping
up a continuous growth from start to
finish. II these points are overlooked
the cost of production will be greater
and much feed may be wasted.
In giving the pig an early start g
little skill may be required at first. BY

SEEKING 4 CANDIDATE.

It Is now stated with show of au-
thority that Pennsyivania republicans
will bring Senator Knox out as their
candidate for the presidential nomi-
|ination and put up as strong fight as
they are able to make before. the con-
yention to- place him at the head OF
the republican ticketin 1908. The pro-
gram as reported is to declare a Roose-
yeit platform and Knox as a candidate.
No doubt a concentration Of reac-
tionary forces on the Knox candidacy
Nigh. make him formidable before the
convention, but the element in the
party from which Roosevelt has re-
ceived his support and which stands
for q continuation Of the Roosevelt
program, will refuse to accept Senator
Knox as the logical successor of the
president. The connection between
Senator Knox and the corporate infiu-
ences and interests most bitterly. OPP
posed to Roosevelt has been of the
most Intimate and the politicians that
are engineering the Knox movement,
are of tine plain Pennsylvania corpora
ton stamp. Senator Knox belongs
with the reactionary crowd. All his
sympathies are with it. ,All that has
been offered against Secretary Roots
availability, and much more, may be
urged against Knox.
We mighttas well get down to brass
tacks. J, If the republican party at
tempts to elect reactionary candidate
it has assumed "a task most likely to
end in abject failure. The candidate
must stand for the Roosevelt policies.
He can scarcely carry "a handicap Of
previous and present corporation af-
.tiliation and subserviency and win. He
must have d personality that appeals
to the rank and file. His biography
must. include the square deal. Other
wise candidate with personality and
a history of sincerity and consistency
back of him will win. We have had
sufficient pledge of the temper of the
people. A blind man can read the
signs of the. times.
Knox is not in the class required for
a Caesars wife campaign. We need a
candidate OF the people for, 1908. A
politicians candidate with reactfOnary
tendencies will find hard Shedding. 1t
is well for us to understand this early,
for the candidate is the key to the next
presidential success.

.apAyE. NORRIS, OF eRlNNELl.

The T.-R. is in mourning today for q
strong, good and brave man gone or
that Inevitable journey into the fal
country. Mr.. D. w. Norris, whose sud
den death at Grinnell was chronicled in
yesterdays issue bf this paper, was one
of the best known special correspond
ents to this paper and thousands Of
our readers read yesterday of his de-
mise with keep regret From his init
mate connection with the chief editor
Mr. Norris was especially well known to
and acquainted with the T.-R. force
all Of whom bore toward him a sincere
personal regard and whose sorrow ia
deep and genuine. 1t was his custom
when in the city to spend much time at
this office. From room to room sand
department to department he moved
and visited. So we all grew to know
and love the bluff, sincere, outspoken
man with the fire OF conviction I'm his
eye, who came to praise and blame, to
agree or deny, but who always stood
for the square deal, for charity, for
right, for civic, state, national and In
dividual manliness and morality. He
put the right above all. Plain OF
speech and Of purpose, he never failed
to temper justice with charity. So we
grew close to the big. rugged man and
Learned to love him for what he was
and the things he stood for. Today
there's JUST ae hert in the Times

ITO each mans children comes the
day when they group about their faith

comfort to be found is in the memory
OF good true. strong and kindly man.
the most splendid inheritance, the
knowledge that he lived well and no.
