HINTS FOR FARMERS

grcasine the hools
When shoe s. fo De fitted the edge
or wall sole should be prepared by
cutting or rasping, not by burning. IN
deed, the shoe should be fitted to the
foot and not the foot to the shoe.
When from bad management the sole
and frog have become dry and con-
tracted no grease or tar should be
used. but water should be used freely,
and then the hoof should be dressed
with glycerin. which Will mix with
water and does not displace It,
Glycerin contains no acid or acrid
properties. but is soft bland, emollient
and does not evaporate. 1t therefore
softens the horn and allows the fibers
TO expand. Contraction is thus pre-
vented or is overcome when IL has ac-
tually occurred.

Stamping Out Hoo Cholera.

1t is said that Canada has rid itself
of hog cholera by killing all hogs af-
fected, by quarantine inspection and by
paying for these losses. In referring
to this matter Veterinarian Mcneil OF
the Iowa Agricultural college says:
The only remedy is in sanitation
and prevention by using this meth
cd. If your pigs become affected with
scabies or any of the minor skin ar
fections, make a small dip tank. or IL
that is too much expense simply catch
the pigs and take some disinfectant
and scrub brush and clean up their
faces and heads. Get all the matter
away and then paint them with a lit
tie iodine. That helps to disinfect.
This should be done from time to
time"

Nettie perched on the baggage truck
and regarded with dumb amazement
the bearded person who sat on the OBJ
servation car side tracked on the tiny
Lost Mine station. The half worn cars
that comprised the rolling stock Of this
hundred mile branch of the G.. and s.
W. were shabby in the extreme, and
not even the Pullmans that Nettie saw
when she rode down to the junction
with Sam were to be compared TO this
palace on wheels. More important was
the fact that the bearded person was
Dhe president OF the system, the man
whose word was law TO the thousands
OF employees OF the road and its vari-
GUS feeders.
1t was the first time that any official
of the main Office had ever been over
the line. and Nettie wondered that this
quiet looking man should be the head
of the great system. She had expected
10 see a six footer with shiny silk
hat and frock coat such as she had
seen in pictures. She was q little dis
appointed in the subdued suit of
tweeds and the peaked cap.
But If the clothing was disappointing
the face came up to all her expecta-
lions. powerfully nodded face 1t
was. and every line betokened the
power and the indomitable will that he
had made the c. and $. w. one Of the
most important lines in the country.
For week the car had stood on the
siding. while the men of the party hunt

on the observation platform smoking
and planning fresh triumphs. and Net
tie had fallen into the habit of sitting
on the station platform and watching
the strong. contemplating face. 1t re
minded her OF the engine that painted
lazily at the far end of the car, big and
strong and powerful.
Westhall had brought his son and
some of the latter's friends out west
for Il hunting trip. He, too. felt the
need of rest. and he found ii I'm the

promised more than that. He would
superintend the erection OF her stall

at his enthusiasm. When he refused
payment for the work she was enbar
raised. This had not been what she
intended Nor did she realize till long
afterward that busy artist could not
spend two days overseeing the cree

Because he read her thought so well
he made but a small purchase there a

saw him spend freely at another booth.
After that Wyndham removed to a
better studio. He would try to forget
her, he told himself He did not sue

upon his stairs made his heart pound
expectantly. One day she came.
He hoped she had not noticed his
pallor and nervousness when he well
coined her. He feared she had, for a
sort OF wondering interrogation flashed
over her mobile features.
She wanted 10 have an engagement
made for some work, she said.
His hands still trembled as he pulled
out his little book and turned over It's
pages. From between them there fut-
tered a rose geranium leaf. A food of
crimson rushed to his forehead. His
eyes of guilty consciousness betrayed
all the story of his love TO her glance
of swift inquiry and comprehension.

but he could not conceal the tenderness
