10 grow baby pork successfully goot
pasture must be provided. The pig,
must be given a fair chance by comm.
into the world strong and luSty, anC
they must be kept growing in prime
physical condition from the start
Bone and flesh forming foods must be
fed and comfortable and cIeanly sur
roundings provided. Plenty Of clean
| water to drink at all times is impor
tant. A stunted pig is bad property
as he never really gets over it. Good
pasture and care may help him. but
he has lost time and vigor which can,
not be wholly regained.
Feeding the Youngsters.
When first weaned feed the pigs
from three to five times day. While
with their mother they took their meals
at least every two hours, and too sud-
| den change is detrimental. After
they get to growing vigorously cut
down to two meals a day, and when
they weigh seventy-tive pounds each
and are on good pasture feed once q
day, and that at night.
A Breeders Advice.
A successful breeder gives this ad.
vice: Keep record of the number Of
pigs In each litter. 1t doesn't pay to
rely on memory in these things. Look
well to it that the mother hogs have
the driest, most comfortable quarters
possible. This often tells the story
OF the little rooters she is able to bring
to market for you. Always select the
young sows from the most prolific
old ones If sow has fever at far
rowing time and eats her pigs. it is
your own fault, not hers. Keep her
active, give her a laxative diet, no
corn and plenty of pure, clean water
to drink and there will be no trouble.
What! Sweep the hogpen? Yes; that
Is what one Of the best hog men does
every single day. Do you think he
would keep 1t up If he did not think it
paid?
Give Variety In Pig Feeds.
II pigs are allowed the run of pas
ture they will eat more concentrated
feed and make more rapid gains than
when being fed in dry lots. II the ri
tion contains plenty of protein the ad
vantage of pasture does not amount
much so far as the amount of feed
consumed per 100 pounds of gain is
concerned. but 1t makes big differ
ence in the condition of the pigs at the
end Of the fattening period. In tests
at the Iowa experiment station the
cheapest gains when feeding young
pigs were obtained from ration of |
corn, with the pigs on clover pasture.
The greatest profit was made when a
mixed ration was fed.

ure.
In order TO make progress possible
and to enable the legislature to ad.
just the system Of taxation to the
changing Industrial conditions and
conform 1t to advancing economic
thought, II Las been necessary for the
supreme court to find ever new inter-
pretations of the constitution. In a
word, progress has been possible only
by evasion of the constitutional rule.
Had the general assembly Of half a
century ago passed some of our more
recent tax laws, there can be no doubt
that the supreme court of that time
would have declared the acts uncon-
stltutional, although the constitution
was the same then as now.
While it is true that these various
evasions and forced interpretations
nave enabled us to make some i'm
provements in our tax system, 1t Is
equally true that all these evasions
combined have not made ii possible
to work out even an approximately
satisfactory solution of any one Of the
great modern problems Of taxation.
There must be an amendment of the
constitution in the matter of taxation
or conditions and circumstances will
force the courts to permit and Justify
still further and more radical evasions
OF the old constitutional rule. It has
been ably and seriously argued that
the presence of a semi-colon in Sec
ton of a.ticle XII confines the uni
form rule to intangible property. If
the supreme court were to adopt such
an Interpretation the step would be a
departure from the rule of the fathers
but little more radical. if any, than
some which have been sanctioned in
the past
Reason and righteousness demand
that when the rule embodied in the
constitution has proven to be a mis-
chievous fallacy, 1t should be amended
or abolished. Section of article XII
Of the constitution of Ohio embodies
such a mischievous fallacy. The rule
is unscientific, unjust, inadequate and

How This Disease Can Be Treated
Most Effectively.
Foot rot originates only In wet land

where sheep hoofs are liable to crack
from overgrowth and softenlng by ex-
cessive moisture This malady may
also be communicated to a sound
flock by the introduction of one sheep
having the disease. The sheep pen and
yard should be composed of hard, dry.
well beaten clay. The droppings in the
pen must not be allowed to ferment, as
the heat in the manure will soften the
feet, and when the sheep are turned
out in the spring on damp sod they are
liable to have an attack of this trouble

If the disease is taken in its early
stages the cure is simple and sure, says
writer in the Baltimore American.

 The young folks of Southbury, anc
 older ones too, had fine picnic or
 Goes Hill, back of Henry B. Russell's
 house, Thursday, August l3, from Il tc 5 o'clock. The day was hot but breezy and the expected thunderstorm did not come. A hundred happy people seemed to feel the attractions of the cedar trees and the shade, to say nothing of the ice cream, lemonade and other dainties. Best of all was the pleasant fellowship of which there was no lack. It does people good to get together and eat, to throw aside care for a little while, look in each others faces, and smile at poor joke. Quite a number of persons from Kettletown were pres ent and some from South Britain. There were games and two swings and the boys and men played baseball at the foot of the hill. All seemed to be harmonious and happy and heartily thankful to the ladies. who had provid- ed for the occasion so literally and successfully. It was suggested that all who partook of the picnic ought to at- tend church and Sunday school regular iy for their own good, as well as for that of others.
