MOVING DAY Is DELAYED.
District Government VIII Occupy
New Home on July \ Next

" - ACNN.
Moving day for the District government
when It will go into the new Municipal
Building, will not be July 6. as heretofore
stated. The Commissioners have an
nounced that the plans for removal can
not be completed before Wednesday. July
s. This will in no way interfere with the
arrangements for the celebration on the
Fourth.
Pressure OF business is the cause Of the
change. Il would be impossible to install
the officials and clerks and make the
necessary transfer Of documents and
Office fixtures, all within the first four
days Of the month. AS opening for work
on Monday would thus necessitate the
work Of removal continuing on Sunday.
It was thought best to allow two more
days of grace.

Americans Growing BIGGER.

A tailor whose firm has been con-
tinuously in business in Philadelphia
for 105 years has compiled from his
books of measurement some statistics
that discount the statements OF the
pessimists.
These statistics show that the
American in the past century has
grown taller, stronger and simmer
greater in height and in chest
girth, less in the girth of waist and
hips
The average chest of 1895 was
thirty-six inches. 1t is now thirty
eight inches. The average height was
five feet seven inches. 1t is now five
feet eight and a half inches. The
length of leg has increased in the
same proportion. The shoulders and
chest have greatly developed. The
waist, on the other hand, has lost
two inches.-New York Press.

Producing Lean Pork.

The production of fat or lean pork
is a question of both breed and food.
Some breeds run to fat and others to
leanness, both of which natural ten
denotes may be greatly modified. IL
not entirely overcome, by feeding for
desired results, but it takes more feed
to fatten a naturally lean hog than
for naturally fat hog. II the brood
SOW belongs to a family naturally
fat her pigs will tend in the same d.
rection; but IL they are fed lightly af-
ter weaving and compelled to forage
In the fields for most of their feed,
the active life will prevent them ac-
cumulating much fat and turn large
share of their food into lean meat,
the natural product of constant exer-
else.
If this Is kept up for a few genera
tions, the characteristics of the breed.
so far as these special animals are
concerned, will be completely
changed. Nature will come to their
assistance and gradually fit them for
their environment. The scrub hog
and the razor-back produce lean meat
naturally, but they can be changed
into lard hogs by confinement and
heavy feeding in a few generations.
The less active the animal, the softer
the bone and the greater tendency to
fatten. In all lines of breeding the
question of feeding has much to do
with the results attained. The
smooth, broad backed, short legged
hog will soon degenerate into scrub
in the hands of a poor feeder.
In breeding for lean hogs, there
fore, all these points should be con-
sidered and while the breed should be
selected which has a tendency in this
direction, the management and food
should be OF a nature to develop this
tendency still further. In doing this
it will not be necessary to go to the
razor-back, or some big, coarse ami
NAL, with an abnormal appetite and
big bone. The improved breeds can
be made to answer the purpose with
careful feeding and win produce lean
meat at much less cost than the COM

Better Than Whitcwash.

A serviceable paint for farm build
ings can be made by thickening sour
milk or buttermilk with Portland ce-
ment and metallic Venetian red, or
bright red paint powder to the ordi-
nary paint consistency. 1 painted
the outside of my barn Trough lum-
ber) with this mixture and also
painted a few boards with ordinary
oil paint as a check, and six years
after the milk paint had preserved
the wood better than the oil paint. 1t
has kept its color and shows no sign
of age. This paint will not rub or
wash off like whitewash. The grease
In the milk seems to have the fixing
quality, as l treid using water with
the cement and paint and found il
rubbed off readily. For this reason
1t is judged that sour milk is better
than butter milk as 1t contains more
grease. This sort of paint costs but
little and can be mixed up instantly.
1t is very valuable for doing little odd
painting jobs around the farm which
might not otherwise get done. 1t is
necessary to keep agitating the paint
as the cement settles quickly.-G. e.

Feeding MoIasses.

A correspondent of the Practical
Dairyman says
In reference to my experience in
feeding molasses to my dairy cows
will say that l found it to be much
better as a milk-producing feed than
l expected.
i commenced using it by mixing
1t with the brewers grains, one pint
to each COW, and, after feeding fifty
cows two weeks on said feed,
stopped feeding the molasses two
days, and the cows fell off sixty
quarts per day, when we began feed
ing 1t again, the cows came up again,
which demonstrated to my satisfac-
tion that II is a good and cheap feed
II it was not for the fact that l am
having a surplus Of milk just now
/ should feed it to my full herd and
increase the amount by giving them
two feeds of 1t each day, instead OF
one, as l am confident the results
would more than pay the extra cost.

Young Turkeys.

The main point with young turkeys
is to prevent them from being at
tackled by the large gray body lice,
and the best way to do so is to begin
with the parent birds before the
young ones are Matched, as lice usu-
ally go from adult birds to the chicks
When turkey hens desire to sit they
should be anointed on the head once
week with some kind of oil, such as
olive oil, llnseed oil. or lard oil. This
will kill the large lice and prevent
the chicks from being destroyed the
first few days of their existence.
Grease is repugnant to poultry Of
all kinds, hence but little oil should
be used. Apply it lightly on the
heads, the combs, faces and necks,
rubbing It we'll into the skin. 1t will
render the hen more comfortable,
prevent her from leaving the nest
frequently for relief from torture,
and will also save the chicks from
being attacked. A few drops of oil
on each chick once a week should be
used, and more young turkeys will be
reared. The secret in rearing them
is freedom from lice and dampness.
Feed them on bread crumbs moist
ened with milk, hard boiled eggs,
chopped parsley, onion or lettuce and
cracked corn and wheat the first two
weeks, feeding four times day, and
removing all food uneaten. After
they are two weeks old the food may
be varied to suit the circumstances.

God Providing for His Birds, Ho
Lilies and His Chldren-Matt
6. 1884; Psa. 81. 1929.
Matt 6. 1884. The birds and the
lilies are Gods creatures; we are his
children. They take what he gives
and can do no other. AS he gives
they live, and 1t is worthy OF note
that birds and lilies, for the most
part, live perfect lives. Because we
are Gods children he gives us a
larger freedom. We take what he
gives or we refuse 1t; we use 1t WISE
ly or We use 1t foolishly; but still
the birds and the lilies teach us that
he who takes Gods perfect gifts and
uses them according to Gods intent
VIII live the life that God meant him
to live. There is only one thing to
be anxious for-not food or raiment
but the kingdom of God and his right.
eousness. In very important sense
1000 and raiment are Gods to give
or to withhold, although We may CO.
operate with him even here; but in
the matter of seeking the kingdom of
God, and the righteousness that be-
longs to it, we are left entirely Tree.
All the more reason that we should
seek and use this higher, nobler gift,
since God has put upon us the dignity
Of free and untrammeled choice.
Psa. 81 1929. The whole message
of this psalm Is that righteousness
Is profitable, godlessness short-llved.
The psalmist does not know all he
would like to know about Gods prov
idence, but he is sure that infinite
love rules over us all. Then 1t is
blessed to trust. TIE afflicted may
triumph, and the defeated may be the
real victors. OF course, as we know,
the Christian message very greatly
enlarges this view. Whatever God s
providence may bring to us. IL we are
Ia harmony with his purpose, 1t can
bring us nothing that Is not good.
Sorrow, loss, trouble. burden, hind
rance, limitation-all these can be
made ministers Of blessing and power
to the man who believes that God is
using them to teach and to train and
to develop him. To those who can
not believe this these things are un-
mixed and unexplainable evils.

Feeding Growing Pigs.

person can find out a proper method
ana should aim to carry It out sys-
tematically. 1t is not a wise thing to
feed any thing that happens to be
handy and that will satisfy the pigs
appetite, for 1t will result in making
the pigs unthrifty, with consequent
loss. Choose the ration that is best
adapted to the conditions at hand and
then stick to 1t.
Do not keep too many pigs In one
pen unless the space is large and has
plenty OF troughs. Troughs should
be OF the proper height, with parti.
tions to prevent the pigs crowdine
each other from the trough, and this
also keeps the food clean.
Feed regularly and carefully. In.
