MR.. KOINER REPLYS.

1t will be recalled that, two
weeks ago, we took Mr., Koiner,
Commissioner of Agriculture, to
task because of an apparent over
sight of Highland in reply to the
Ohio cattleman wo asked about
Virginia's grass lands, etc. Mr..
Koiner received a marked copy OF
the RECORDER, and writes the ed
itor on the subject. While ad-
dressed to him personally, we abuse
no confidence by making his letter
public, and gladly do so in justice
to Mr.. Koiner.
Mr.. H. B. Wood, Editor,
Highland Recorder,
Monterey, Va.
Dear Sir:
l have received the marked copy
of your paper of the 23rd. | am
glad that you sent it to me because
it gives me the opportunity to cor
rect an error. The statement given
to the Times-Dispatch was not
printed in full. Highland was men
toned and also Loudoun and Fau-
quier. All these counties export
beef cattle direct from the pasture.
l think great deal of Highland
county, and have a number of
friends living in that County, and
have thousand of tines referred to
the suberb blue grass pastures in
Crabbottom, which cannot be ex-
celled in any County, and in my
Report for 1907, on page 203, /
make mention of the fine cattle ex-
ported direct from Highland coun-
ty last year. A copy of this Re-
port was sent to the inquirer refer
red to, so you see | really gave
more mention to Highland than to
any other County IN the State. |
hope you will set me right before
the good people of Highland coun-
ty. / am also coming to Highland
and adjoining Counties this winter
or spring to hold a Farmers lnsti-
tute. l beg to assure you that /
am just as proud of old Highland
as any County in the State.
Yours very truly,
G. w. Koiner,
Commissioner.

Elaxseed For Swine.

Professor Stewart says that f1axseed
is preventive of disease in hogs-a
good food medicine. It's oil is very
soothing to the stomach and intestines
and is also rich in food for muscle and
bone. One of the best ways to use fax
seed is to boil it in six times it's bulk
of water till it forms jelly. Now mix
little of this jelly with wheat bran
and you have an excellent food for a
growing pig. This is also good for the
brood SOW. promoting her yield of
milk. If lsed in this way one pound
Of boiled faXseed is mixed with ten
pounds of bran. Pigs very soon get a
liking for the taste of fiaxseed. An
other way is to grind one bushel of flax
seed with eight bushels of oats or all
the faxseed that can be ground with
out sticking to the millstOnes. Then
mix 100 pounds of this ground oats and
faxseed with 200 pounds of bran.
This will be the best kind of feed for
young pigs, and it will be good for
them all the time up to fattening. and,
besides this, they will be smooth, rangy
pigs, making good roasters at any
time. In other words, they will grow
and fatten every day of their lives.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
The Winter CLEANUP.

No matter how careful the farmer
tries to be, there is always a great
deal of trash that accumulates around
the barn lots. along the fences and
even in the fields. says the Farmers Ad-
vocate. The farmer should make it a
practice to use all the old boards and
fenceposts that have become useless
during the year as kindling or fire.
wood. These may be worked up into
wood now and the place occupied by
them put into a much better appearing
condition. All trash that cannot be
used as frewood should be collected
and burned.
It is good practice to burn all such
wood in the hogpens. The charcoal
and ashes make an excellent addition
to the hogs ration, and the very best
way to get this into the hogpen is to
make the latter the burning ground
for all the useless wood on the farm.
The barn lots and hog lots should be
cleaned of all manure and dirt that are
not frozen to the ground. 1t is known
that disease germs, especially cholera
germs, can live through the winter in
the frozen Jumps of manure and filth
in these lots. If these Jumps are carted
to the field, the health of the herd to
be kept in the lot next summer will be
nrOtected

The boat. which is to be constructed
entirely of newspapers, will resemble
a racing shell and will be about twenty
feet long and six inches deep, with a
