CoRNcoB CHARCOAL.

Wallace Farmer: Farmers who have
any considerable number of swine
should not forget in the rush of work
at this season of the year to prepare an
abundant supply of corncob charcoal.
II is one of the easiest jobs on the
farm. Some farmers simply rake to-
gether the dry corncobs In the yard,
and, taking advantage of a calm day,
char them, and then when the charring
is complete scatter them, put out the
fire and let the hogs eat them at will.
They are so greedy for them that they
will scarcely wait until the fire is out,
but will eat them at the risk of burn
ing their mouths.
better way is simply to dig a round
hole, say three feet across and three
feet deep, build a good fire with wood
in the bottom of this, fill in with corn
cobs, and when they are properly
charred through but not burned to
ashes, put on a lid of some kind to ex-
clude the air. Then add any wood
ashes that may be convenient, and salt.
When the mass is cool put il in box
with a self-feed, where the hogs can
reach ii, and let them eat what they
want.
You will be surprised at the amount
of this charcoal the hogs will eat. 1t
is not necessary to go into details as
to why they are fond Of IT or the eff
feet 1t has on the system. Whether in
man or beast, the natural appetite is a
fairly good guide as to the real needs
OF the system. That hogs fed on corn
need something of this character is
evident from the ravenous appetite
they have for slack coal.
Give the hogs all the cob charcoal
they want. There is no loss of fertil-
ity, for the cOrncob is mainly carbon
and potash. The carbon comes from
the air and the potash remains in the
soil, whether it is burned or hauled out
as manure. Therefore, there is no loss
through making corncob charcoal.

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. The
other way is to do them well all the
way through, and get them to finish
off as soon as possible consistent with
their age. / know which am in IA
vor Oft is the latter. method, as 1t
not only secures superior stuff, but 1t
is well known to all who have tried II
that the animals that are pushed in
every reasonable way are the most
profitable. l never yet knew the hang
ers-on prove first rate in the end, or
leave big lot of profit behind them.
They grow slowly and get into a kind
OF standstill condition. 1t is these we
often hear 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. II 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, IL is a
! very easy operation compared with the
worrying up hill work necessary to get

THE FIRST TASTE.

Learned to Drink Conee When "a
Baby.
If parents realized the fact that co..
fee contains g-caffeine-which
is especially harmful to children, they
would doubtless hesitate before giving
the babies coffee to drink.
when | was child in my mothers
arms and first began to nibble things at
the table, mother used to give me sips
of coffee. AS my parents used coffee
exclusively at meals never knew there
was anything to drink but coffee and
water.
And so I contracted the coffee habit
early. I remember when quite young,
the continual use of coffee so affected
my parents that they tried roasting
wheat and barley. then ground it in the
coffee-mill as a substitute for coffee.
But 1t did not taste right and then
went back to coffee again. That was
long before Postum was ever heard of !;
| continued to use coffee until was 81,
and when | got into office work, l be-
gan to have nervous spells. Especially
after breakfast l was so nervous I
could scarcely attend to my correspond
ence.
"At night, after having coffee for
supper, | could hardly sleep, and on
rising In the morning would feel weak
and nervous.
"A friend persuaded me to try Post
um. My wife and l did not like it Mt

give up Postum for the best coffee we

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

cially in cold weather. In such case

then they should be fed at a point

If this can be quarter or half mile

exercise practically amounts to taking

JEFF DAVIS CAPTOR
MARKS ANNIVERSARY
Casper Knobel, of Philadelphia,
Is the Last Survivor of
Federal Band.

Philadelphia, Special: Receiving
congratulations from his many friends
and comrades, Casper Knobel of 1868
Amber ST., the sole survivor of the
federal party who captured Jefferson
Davis, president of the confederacy,
has Just celebrated the 43d anniver-
sary of that event.
Knobel began the day by going to
cavalry post, No 81, at Sepviva and
Norris streets, where, to his fellow
veterans, he related his experience as
captor of the southerner.
After telling how Davis had been
traced from Abbeville, Ga, to a point
about one and one half miles down the
Abbeville road. Knobel told how, as
one of a detachment of the Fourth
Michigan cavalry, his party discovered
the tents that then sheltered Davis,
Mrs. Davis, their two daughters and
son.
With the party were several confed-
crate officers. Continuing his recital,
Knobel said:
George Rinke, the horseshoer of
Company A, and l were the first to ap-
proach the tents. l went to the near
est tent, and had just broken the fly
fastenings, when out walked a tail,
skinny man, wearing gray civilians
clothes. l did not know IL was JEFF
Davis. AS he walked toward the team,

preached him and asked: is that you,

When Davis replied: It's not your
business to ask me- Mungler leveled
his revolver at Davis mead
las Mungler did this, Mrs. Davis
rushed from the tent, crying: DON'T
At the same time, the morning being
damp and chilly, she threw her shawl
over her husbands shoulders.
There is no truth. by the way In
the report that Davis tried to escape
in woman's disguise" sFe
Casper Knobel received as his share
of the 100000 reward for capturing
Jefferson Davis $293 and gold medal
from congress.

TIE
General Demand

of the Well Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup Of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine--manufactured by the Cali
sornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
