ON TWENTIETH CENTURY FARM.

didn't know pigs bathed. Do they?"
The farmer struck match on his
London-made walking breeches.
Yes, the modern pig bathes," he
said. with squeals of rage and dis.
gust he tumbes once week into a
hot bath. and is. thoroughly scrubbed
with stiff brushes dipped in strong,
soft soap. This cleanliness keeps him
always well, and It increases his
weight 20 per cent.
"All our agricultural colleges now
advise the pig to battle. BY expert
ments they continually show that
baths cause him to fatten fifth bet.

of the twentieth century farm"

afterward. A dry clean for window
may be made with liquid whiting
