mer. In the form of air slaked
lime it is one of the best alb
sorbents of foul odors that we
have found. If mixed with the
droppings of animals it has a
tendency to liberate the am
monia, but it can be used so as
to cause very little waste, and
we can well afford to sacrifice
a little ammonia for the sake of
better health of our animals.
Sprinkle it on the stable
floors and on the nog house
floors after cleaning them out
and before putting in new bed
ding. Put it on the chicken
coop floors and in dust baths.
Put a small amount in the hogs
slop, not enough to make it
caustic or to turn the slop vel
low, but just enough to sweeten
| it, and the pigs will relish it. If
one would take the time to mix
| il, limewater would be better
for the last named purpose. To
make it put large quantities of
water on quicklime and use on
| ly clear water that rises after
the lime settles.
Sprinkle the powdered lime
on the feeding floors and about
the yards. 1t will not hurt any
thing, and l believe it has done
as much for us as any other one
thing to help to check two or
three case of hog cholera within
the last few years. Lime is one
Iof the ingredients of one of the
lest selling hog remedies on the
N; rket today.
An old farmer said some time
ago that there is no use of los
ing hogs with cholera. When
asked his plan he said he al
ways kept the following mix
ture before his pigs (and it is
surprising how much they will
eat of it) Lime; fifty pounds
sulphur, five pounds, sal soda,
five pounds; black anthony,
five pounds; copperas or sui
plate of iron, five pounds.
Use fresh quicklime, add just
enough water to Stake it to a
fine powder, then add the other
ingredients and mix thorough
ly. Take two parts of the mix
ture and one of salt, and keep
it where they can get at it anc
see how quickly it is used up.

He was the strongest man l
knew,
Serene and self-secure;
Fashioned to mock at time and
chance,
To suffer and endure.
I saw him poor, unknown, de-
spised,
Hew out his gradual way;
l saw him battle mighty wrongs
AS if the war were play.
l saw him lifht mon, and best,
When life went like a song
Of pleasant things, l saw him
still
Simple and pure and strong.
And, learning of his faith, I
asked
How such a thing need be
In one so strong, and whence
it came,
And thus he answered me:

And started to run home the

He told Tommy Gibbs he was

This morning Tom hollered and

He said he won't fight him OIL

Lime in Hog Pens
Value of This Disinfectant and How
to Use 1t.

Many have the opinion that
the only use for lime is for
whitewashing and use it very
sparingly even for that. The
mechanical effect of a good coat
of whitewash is well worth it's
cost, to say nothing of the adj
ded appearance. Lime is one
of the most reliable disinfect-
ants and deodorizers that we
have and at the same time the
cheapest. We use it in the
form of whitewash for walls
and roosts in chicken houses
and walls of portable hog hous-
es; also the hog watering and
stopping troughs, says writer
in National Stockman and Far

From time to time, and at intervals

named Cinnearh O'Hartigan, in 975 DID,,
while the remains of the royal palace at
Tara were still distinct and intact and
while the written description Of that
famous hill was still clear and abundant,
there is an account of q spacious barrack

The stanzas are as follows:
The great house of thousands Of soldiers
To generations 1t was widely known;

Seven hundred feet was Its length.
1t was not filed with the foolish and ignorant,
Nor overcrowded with the willy and arrogant;
