DIPPING Swine.

On each and every farm there should
be some provision made for dipping
swine. This not only proves to be an
easy and effectual method of disin-
fecting animals which are being
brought upon the farm, but 1t also fur
nishes a good way for disposing Of
lice. Every swine herd should be
dipped at least twice year. in the
spring and In the fall. There are very
few herds of swine that are not af-
fected at some time or other with lice
Some recommend sprinkling or spray
ing for lice. This is not very good
way to overcome the difficulty, as the
lice are usually found on the head
close to the ears, under the armpits
and In other secluded places where
spraying could not in any way reach
them. Swine thus affected, when put
through dipping tank, will be free
from all trouble.-w. ]. Kennedy.

A Morgan of
Perfect Type.

The Morgan type of horse originated
In Vermont, and many descendants of
the original Morgan stock are still in
existence. They have changed some
what In appearance from the early
specimens, but include in general their
beauty, intelligence, good temper and
endurance which have made them IA
vorltes as a general purpose horse.
Blue Mountain Prince was bred and
raised by the late Austin Corbin Of
New York city at Newport, n. II. This
horse has been awarded many prizes
at horse shows and exhibitions as a
perfect example of the old original
Morgan. He is Of a rich dark chestnut
colot, Uith white strip in face and
diamond on nose. OF perfect Morgan
conformation throughout, he has served
as a model for sculptors in search of
perfect Morgan type. He is richly

Calves In Sanctions.

The accompanying cut shows the
best and cheapest method of keeping
and feeding calves, according to the
Southern Cultivator, which says: Any
farmer who is handy with tools can
make the trough and construct the
Stanchions. By adopting this method
you save room and each calf gets the
food allotted to 1t. The calves cannot
be fighting one another off. and you
can save the manure better, also keep
them cleaner. Every farmer who has

AT sILO TIME.
Corn Should Not Be Too Grsen--Cut'
tina and PUTTING Il UP.

ting and FutIIn9 IL SPs
Many people make the mistake OF
cutting corn too green for silage. AT
this stage there is larger percentage
of water, and the silage wnen tahea
out has large amount of acid. less
starch and sugar and hence Is less nu-
tritious. Corn planted in drills with
stalks eight to ten inches apart will
mature a good proportion OF ears.
Harvesting should not begin until
the ears are passing the roasting stage
and begin to glaze. Unless the season
is exceptionally dry the stalks and
leaves will remain green, but too ma
ture or dry corn is more liable to mold.
This may be found In spots around the
sides or more generally over the si!o
wherever the air has gained access to
cause the fungous growth. This condl-
ton may be improved by tramping the
material carefully In the silo, adding
water by sprinkling with hose. or II
this is not available direct stream Of
water into the blower or elevator SUI
ficient to saturate the cut fodder. This
moisture assists the material to settle
and acts as a seal to keep out the air.
There should be labor and teams
enough to keep The cutter running
steadily Nothing is gained by cutting
a large amount of corn beforehand,
hauling and piling near the machine
to be handled over again. Aim to har-
vest at the least expense a ton. This
will be accomplished as follows: If
hand cutting is practiced, cut and hand
directly to the man loading, not throw.
ing on the ground in bundles, which
will require an extra handling. Let
each load come to the table of the ma
chine in turn, handing the corn direct
~ to the feeder. If the corn is long
and heavy an extra man is needed on
the table to assist.
Power should be ample and III pro.
portion to the size of the cutter. The
blower is replacing the elevator ma
chine, economiZing space and largely
doing away with the stopping of an
entire crew to repair the elevator. II
the corn is heavy and the stalk large

Loss In Sheep RAISING.

The cause Of loss In sheep raising
may be summed up as follows: First.
low condition OF the flock at mating
time; second, insufficient food and shell
ter during winter; third. neglect during
lambing time; fourth, worrying by
dogs; fifth, selling the best lambs and
keeping the culls; sixth. using inferior
rams, and. seventh, negIecting to de-
stroy the ticks.-W. 8. Fraser.

Utilizing Skim Mix.

There are many fruit farms on
which the flock of fowls is becoming
every year a large factor. The by
products of these are utilized to some
extent for the poultry, but not so
much as the byproducts of the dairy
farm. There is no better way OF util-
izing skim milk than by feeding to
poultry, suggests Kansas Farmer.
When this skim milk is allowed to
sour and is made into curd for the
fowls 1t is still more extensively
available. There is no byp4oduct that
need go to waste when you have plen-
ty OF chickens around. They are the
scavengers Of the farm and make lots
or waste material into good fresh
eggs.

had dictated everything in the legis
lature, bad appointed all the depu
ties in the insurgent officers cabinets,
had filled all the appointive offices
and named the deputies for the same
and he thought his power was abso-
lutte, so he invaded the state encamp-
ment Of the Grand Army of the
Republic of South Dakota and
attempted to dictate to these old
soldiers who should be their CON-
mander for the present year. The
old soldiers pricked the bubble on
top of his shoulders a little by elect
ing as their leader the very man that
Crawford said should not be their
commander.
The state board of equalization
and assessment met. To be sure
they raised the assessment of rail
roads little and then the Crawford
people said we have done what we
promised. They neglected to add
that they had increased the valuation
of farm property SO much that the
farmers met great advance in taxes.
They did not cry from the house
tops that the same board reduced
the value Of bank stocks so that
class of property would meet with a
reduced assessment. Mr.. Farmer,
when you get your tax receipt you
can see how the reform administra-
ton has benefited you. Crawford
is now reformer.
His latest move was to announce
himself as candidate for the United
States senate to succeed Senator
A. B. Kittredge. His announcement
is model for a reformer. In it,
he attacks such men as Senator Law
son and Representative Parmley and
when they ask him to meet them
before any audience and discuss the
charges, he refuses, saying, it is
beneath his dignity. Mind you,
beneath the dignity of this reformer,
who is presumed to be the servant
OF the people not the dictator to
meet men in the open whom he has
accused in print of wrong doing.
Coe /. Crawford as attorney gen.
eral was failure-to put it mild
as governor, he has proven himself
untrue to all of his promises, and
yet, he seeks higher position at
the hands of the people. Think
these things over, Brother Bronson,
and then may be you can excuse on
the grounds that he is reformer.
The people will not.
