an ancient guard-room, now used as a
kind of secondary stable. The men
dismounted.

OF Benefit TO ALL

Kasparilla is the name of new remedy
most successfully prescribed for a world
of troubles For arrangements of the
digestive organs it is natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating healthy activity. It's bene-
fetal influence extends, however. to every
portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con-
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi-
ness, headache, backache and despond-
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. 1t is a
strengthening tonic of the highest value.
If it fails to satisfy we authorize all
dealers to refund the purchase price.

RESTORING COWS UDDER

Editor The Ranch:
In The Ranch of October 1, "Our
Mail Bag" department, noticed an
inquiry from Auburn, Wash, about
part of a cows udder going dry from
cold settling in it," l intended writ
ing my experience to you then, but
thought it was a matter of common
knowledge and useless. Afterwards
mentioned it to dairyman, who said
he never tried or heard of my plan. So
| will tell it to you.
We frequently have trouble with
fresh COWS Especially those that are
heavy milkers) having Inflammation,
garget and other disorders of the I'D
der. l use my milk fever outfit" and
initiate the affected quarter of the I'D
der till l can hear the air (carbolized)
squash about like water as l massage
the udder with my hands. leave the
air in the udder till next milking time,
then milk that quarter as usual, work
ing the air down and out with the
milk l Immediately pump that quar-
ter of the udder comfortably full of
carbolized air again, and work as be-
fore, having all milk passages dis
tended with, the air. l keep this up
for one or two weeks, as the case
seems to require.
The affected quarters may go entire
ly dry after a short time, in spite of
our best efforts. But when the cow
comes fresh again you can't tell the
affected quarter from any of the others
by the flow of milk. l have Jersey
COW that was dry in one front quarter
and the OpnOSite hind 0uarter for sew
en- months from causes mentioned
above; but when she came fresh again
| it was impossible to distinguish any
difference in the different quarters of
her udder.
If Inflammation is severe l use hot
applications externally with the air
remedy. l have never lost permanent

ware.
That pork production is an important
agricultural industry is shown by the
fact that in the year 1900 the average
private family ate little over half a
ton of meat. nearly half of which was
pork. This fact is explained by anoth-
Pr fact-pigs for various reasons are
more profitable animals to raise than
beef steers or sheep and on this ac'
count always have occupied and prob
ably always will occupy prominent
place in American agriculture.
In the first place, pigs are more pro-
life than any other class of farm ami
mails. They mature more quickly and
can therefore be turned off sooner than
any other live stock save poultry.
Again, the pig produces its meat upon
considerably less feed than any other
meat producing animal, much Of which
feed could not be used advantageouSly
in any other way. A pound Of pork
can be produced upon half the amount
of feed that is required to produce a
pound of beef and two-thirds As much
as it requires to make pound Of NUT.
ton. Another point in favor Of the
pig is that the percentage Of dressed
weight is higher In pork than in either
beef or mutton.
There is probably no branch Of ami
NAL husbandry that can be taken up
with as small capital as raising pigs
They can be kept in comparatively
large numbers in small Enclosures or
they will do well on pasture, which
furnishes part of their feed, and they
are subject to but few diseases. As
population increases the demand for
pork will also increase. 1t is one Of
our most palatable and nourishing
meats.
Practical experience shows that one
good man can handle quite a large
herd of hogs If he will properly ar
range his pasturing and feeding sys-
tens. Some pasture seems essential
to success. This calls for very
small area of tillable ground per head,
which in course of time should become
very rich and productive from the
droppings Of the animals and the grow
ing of legumes for feed.
