Feeding and milking the cows regu-

really is will be determined before she

The Bird In Hand.

Instead OF getting angry, Clarkson
was rather amused at the actions of
his pet waiter. For two years he had
dined at the same restaurant almost
daily and August knew his every
wish and had always been literally
tipped, says the New York Press.
That day. however, Clarkson was
shamefully neglected. He had to ask
for butter, his napkin was damp and
soggy, the particular sauce he liked so
we'll was not on the table and, In fact,
August was the antithesis of a de-
voted servitor. All his attentions
seemed concentrated upon man at
an adjoining table. August lowered
about him like bee around flower,
anticipating every wish and bringing
him sundry little extras.
The customer was evidently stran-
ger. Clarkson could not recall having
seen him before, and from his long
patronage of the place he had come to
know all the regular customers by
their faces at least. His curiosity got
the better of him and as he was leav-
ing, after bestowing the customary
tip. he asked;
"Why is 1t. August, that you have
been so attentive to that man and so
neglectful of me? Is he in the habit
of giving extra large tips?"
"Oh. no. m'sieu'," said August. "He
is a stranger. He has never been here
before" Then he added apologetical
ly: "And am sure of you, m'sieu'."

The platform was made by laying
down oak 4x4's and planking over

2xs-inch stuff. The platform fronts

board was fitted so that all the feed
ing is done without interfering with
the hogs while eating. Stats four
inches wide are firmly nailed nine
inches apart to prevent the hogs from
getting into the trough. The trough

HARVESTING CORN WITH SWINE.
II Is Economical and Wise Under Ger
tain Conditions.

In these days of scarce and expen.
sive labor, where the harvesting OF
crops can be done by animals, this
method of handling them should be
given due attention. The practice OF
hogging down corn, as II is called, Is
growing in favor. But the present
practice can possibly be improved
upon. II some short variety of corn
were grown which produces ears
abundantly, and II crop of pumpkins
were grown at the same time in the
corn, the combination should be
good one. The corn being low of stat
ure would not hinder the growth OF
the pumpkins as tali corn would.
There is a decided advantage in
grazing or feeding off these two to-
gether, says. Orange Judd Farme,
One advantage is, that the pumpkins
feed well along with the corn for
pigs that are being fattened. and espe'
cially along with new corn. They ex'
ercise a healthful influence on the
creased nutriment obtained from an
acre by thus growing the two crops
together, and third benefit resulting
is the harvesting Of the pumpkins as
well as the corn, without labor.
When growing this crop it will pay
well to have the lard well enriched
Pumpkins, II they are to grow well,
must have rich soil. The yields are
usually proportionate to the high con-
dition of fertility in the land.
