At the front portion of the interior
is four-foot wide gangway from
which the animals are fed. Just
above the trough are suspended two
gates from the joists overhead. These
are arranged so as to swing forward
and back over the trough to facili-
tate feeding. When the pigs are to
be fed the gates are freed by means
of latch and are swung inward, thus
placing the trough in the entry so
that 1t may be cleaned out and the
food placed in II without loss of tenn
per and patience on the part of the
farmer. When the feed is put into
the retainer, the gate is swung back
towards the entry room and the hun.

get in place by vertically acting

Fertility Of Swamp Lands.

Swamp lands have often proved un-
favorable for agriculture, even when
well drained and fertilized. From the
Investigations into the subject in the
extensive swamps of the United
States A. Dachnowski concludes that
the loss of fertility is due, at least In
part, to the presence In bog water
Of substances poisonous to plants.
They seem to be produced by imper-
feet oxidation and decomposition OF
proteins and related bodies and 1t is
possible that in respiration bog plants
may differ from others. After the
land has been exposed to the air for
time the fertility is restored by OK
idation of the harmful products.

Misery,

The neighbor's dog sits out on the
front lawn and howls dismally. The
man in the window looks out and
yells: "Sh-h-h. you beast!" The dog
continues to howl. The man again
comes to the window and this time
hurls a shoe at the dog. Still the
animal howls. Another shoe follows.
The next day the mans wife goes
around in her stocking feet because
she can't find her shoes. The man
hasn't the price OF another pair of
shoes for her, and the next night the
dog howls louder than ever.

THANKSGIVING DAY
canada's Day OF Thanks Month Ear
lier Than In the United States.

For some reason better known to
the Canadians themselves than to the
people on this side of the line. our
Canadian cousins celebrated their
Thanksgiving month or more earlier
than we do. II may be that the Cana
dian turkey had become impatient, and
sounded a note of warning, or II may
be that the frost on the pumpkin" de-
olared itself. But whatever the reason,
their Thanksgiving day Is past II may
have been that the reasons for giving
thanks so much earlier than we do
were pushing themselves so hard and
so fast that the Canadians were
ashamed to postpone the event. They
have had reasons, and good ones, too.
Tor giving thanks. Their great broad
areas of prairie land have yielded In
abundance, and here. by the way. 1t is
not uninteresting to the friends OF
the millions of Americans who have
made their home in Canada during the
past few years to know that they have
participated most generously in the
cutting of the melon" Probably the
western portion of Canada, comprising
the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatche-
wan and Alberta, have the greatest
reason of any of the provinces to ex-
press in the most enthusiastic manner
their gratitude. The results in the
line OF production give ample reason
for devout thanksgiving to Providence.
This year has surpassed all others in
so far as the total increase in the coun-
try's wealth is concerned. There is no
question that Providence was espe-
cially generous. The weather condi-
tions were perfect, and during the
ripening and harvesting period, there
was nothing to interfere. And now II
was well II was So for with a demand
for labor that could not be supplied
there was the greatest danger, but
with suitable weather the garnering OF
| the grain has been successfully accom-
| piished There have been low gen
eral averages. but these are account
ed for by the fact that farmers were
Indifferent, relying altogether upon
what a good soil would do. There
will be no more low averages though
for this year has shown what good
careful farming will do. It will pro
duce 130 million bushels Of wheat from
seven million acres, and It will pro
duce a splendid lot Of oats, yielding
anywhere from 80 to 100 bushels pei
acre. This on land that has cost bu
from $40 to SIS per acre-many farm
ers have realized sufficient from thii
years crop to pay the entire cost o.
their farms. The Toronto Globe says
"The whole population of the Wes
rejoices In the bounty Of Providence
and sends out message Of gratitud,
and appreciation OF the favors which
have been bestowed on the country
The cheerfulness which has abounde,
with industry during the past 81,
months has not obliterated the concep
ton of the source from which tn,
blessings have flown, and the goo,
feeling is combined with a spirit o
thankfulness for the privilege of livin
In so fruitful land. The misfortune
of the past are practically forgotten
because there is great cause to cor
template with satisfaction the com
forts of the present. Thanksgivin
should be season of unusual en-
thusiasm."

The use of oxen in logging opera
tions In the great forests of pine and
Ihardwoods in Arkansas and other
lparts of the south Is almost as COM
mon to-day as IN the earlier period OF
the lumber industry before the intro
Iduction of tram roads and modern
machinery for skidding and loading
the cut timber.
Some of the larger luraber manufac-
turinx concerns in Arkansas have
three or four hundred head of oxen
Iconstantly employed in handling the
logs from the interior Of the forests
Ito the loading places. 1t Is found that
these patient animals are much more
Iseryiceable than mules or horses for
this particular purpose. What they
lack in quickness of movement they
more than make up in other respects
lAnother advantage in using oxeL IN
logging operations Is that In the Tor

lare used to handling them and prefer
them to horses or mules. The AMI
