PAYING BY CHECK.

A friend of the writer who came
IN 10 pay all account the other day
hauled a check book book out OF
his pocket with the remark that for
the past two years he had paid all
his bills by check and found the
system most satisfactory one,
The check method of payment has
several strong arguments i'll its fav.
or and should be more generally
employed. In the first place,
where accounts are paid thus, the
check made payable to order, with
the payee's signature Endorsed on
the back, il serves as receipt for
the amount, while the stub in the
hands Of the payer states for what
purpose the check was drawn.
Again, with this system the bank
keeps ones books and is glad TO
do SO in return for the additional
circulating medium which is thus
placed in its hands. II fellow
loses his pocketbook and dishon-
est person finds il there is always a
loss OF silver or paper currency
which cannot be identified or re-
covered: if his check book. no one
can get money through it except
by forging the owners name,
which is penitentary offense.
Finally the check system gives one
a complete record of expenditures
and enables him to learn by a re-
view Of his accounts at the end of
The year just where his money has
gone, a record that is likely to be
very uncertain and hazy when he
uses the cash system and does not
keep careful record of the same.
Of course the check system presup-
poses bank account, in the &C.

ought not to need particular urg-

EXERCISE is

1T would be a great mistake to as
sume that feed alone has all TO do with
the vitality of young pigs" says James
Atkinson. OF equal Importance, and
absolutely necessary, is plenty OF exer-
else. 1t is not enough to simply allow
brood sows TO have access to large
feed lots or pastures, because frequent
ly when they get fat they will LOAF
around their sleeping quarters and
show but little desire to hustle, espe-
clally in cold weather. In such a case
they ought to be absolutely turned
away from their sleeping quarters and
compelled to spend the entire day, if
necessary, roaming about the pastures.
l nave known instances where sows
weighing 600 pounds have been fed and
so managed that each SOW in the herd
walked several miles every day. If they
do not take the exercise voluntarily
then they should be fed at a point
some distance from the farm buildings.
If this car be a quarter or half a mile
away, SO much the better, because such
exercise practically amounts to taking
an immense insurance policy on the life
of young pigs"

EARLY MATURING.

w. r.. Gilbert, an authority on hog
raising says Of the cary maturing OF
stock.
There are two ways Of doing stock
-one is to do them rather badly at
start. and rush them at the end;
this is very generally practiced. IN
other way is to do them well all the
IA through, and get them TO finish
off as soon as possible consistent with
their age. l know which ! am In ia
vor Oft Is the latter method. as II
not only secures superior stuff. but II
is well known 10 all who have tried IL
that the animals that are pushed In
every reasonable way are the most
profitable. | never yet knew the hang
ers-on prove first rate in the end. or
leave a big lot of profit behind them.
They grow slowly and get into a kind
of standstill condition. Ii is these we
often rear it remarked of that they
are little or no better than when seen
months previous. They neither have
good frames nor capabilities for catch
ing up their hindrances which stamped
them as moderate or inferior in their
earlier days. 1t is about these one is
often forced to observe that they are
no further forward than they were
weeks or months ago.
When a well treated animal comes
to be fattened or finished off, it is a
very easy operation compared with the
worrying up hill work necessary to get
the interior II G up anywhere near
the mark. 1t is hen one wishes they
had been more generous, either i'm
buying in a better class, or in treating
home reared animals. This applies To
bacon pigs and porkers. sheep, lambs
and beef. What detestable things old
lanky pigs are 10 fatten! They devour
endless food before they attain any
thing near quality. Young lamb in
perfect condition is n delicacy of the
first order, but when they only Green

In the opinion Of the Chicago Live Stock
World, corn fed cattle are going to be
the goods all summer and hat quality,
not weight, will be the dominating infiu-
ence in the future. 1t says: Buyers will
bid for choice beeves eagerly, no matter
what the weight, although, of course. light
and medium stuff will have the call. Not
even IN 1902 were corn-fed beeves as scarce
and It is making a high market for dis
tillery-fed stuff. OF grassers there will
be an increasing ~profusion right along
and the beef that kind of cattle can be
converted into ought TO be less of a luxury
than for three months past, but the good
ones, for which there is always a limited
demand, will take care of themselves right
along. With corn at present prices cat
tie on low altitude pastures will get less
OF 1t than usual, and everything with a
fnish will command a legitimate pre-

If this run OF swine should
swell above the average summer move
ment II will be at the expense Of some
of the good breeding stock that has been
held in the hands of corn belt farmers
with such excellent results in recent years.
says the Northwestern Ag~riculturist. Dis
c~ouraging prices for hogs during the last
winter have operated TO repress the en-
thuslasm regarding hog production with
which the atmosphere of rural regions
was so thoroughly surcharged in years
heretofore. Already there is evidence of
a widespread inclination to reduce the
production of pigs. With much curtaii-
ment in the production at such a time
we all know what 1t will mean. The
man who sticks to hog breeding persist
emily in the depressed year as well as
the years when prices are popping up
to render that business the best money
maker on the farm will nave hogs TO sell
at good prices all through the time when
the man who sacrifices his good breed
ing stock and gets out is kicking him
self because he got out just at the wrong
time.
