are not to go to market at six to eight
months of age, but to grow up to ma
turity. They should be pushed for
rapid growth, but must be fed for
growth of frame and bone; not fat
tened on corn, but expanded by a
feed of rich protein. At six, eight or
ten months of age, they should show
more length of body and more scale
than the market hogs, and be smooth
and well covered, but not so fat as for
market.
This can be very easily done by
feeding mixed grain ration, with
ten per cent. of tankage or ten per
cent. of oil meal. Use corn, barley
and oats ground together, mixed thick
ly with water, and fed at once while
sweet. 1t is much better to mix three
pounds Of milk to one pound of grain
If one has no milk the next best feed is
ten per cent tankage. If one has
the corn and does not want to buy
the mill feeds, he can use so per
cent. of corn and 20 per cent. of tank
age, and have well balanced ration.

him with sad, patient eyes and stood
right where it was, but on the other
foot from the one it had been standing
on. So Ezra said he saw plain enough
that he couldn't mourn in peace there,
and he got up and went away, and the
goose went right along with him. It
followed him all around the block. and
down Main street, faithfully holding
out the feather for Ezra to take. and
when Ezra couldn't stand it any lon
ger and went home and into the house
and locked the door, the goose Just
stood on the door step with uplifted
feather. 1t stood there all night
But it was just as faithful as ever,
and at daybreak it waddled out to the
woodshed and plucked another feath-
er, and when Ezra came out, there
was the goose with two feathers in its
bill. Ezra saw he couldn't mourn in
peace on the soap kettle, and he had a
reticence about wandering around
Betzville followed by goose with its
bill full of feathers, so he just locked
himself into the house and stayed
there.
That night it was colder than ever.
and the goose mourned all night, and
in the morning it was plain that its
spirit was entirely broken, as well as
that 1t had extremely acute rheuma-
tism in the feet. 1t waited outside un-
til 1890. and then it hobbled slowly
toward the woodshed. and when it was
nearly there its attention was attracted
by noise next door. The noise was
Uncle Ashdod Clute wringing the
neck sof chicken. AS soon as the
goose saw that, and how easy such a
death was, it made up it's mind, and it
reached up with one foot and grabbed
itself by the neck. 1t did its best,
poor thing, but the rheumatism was SO
bad it had no strength in it's foot, and
it couldn't wiring its own neck. Ezra
Claggin was up in the garret moping
around, and he happened to look out
of the window and saw the goose, and
all he felt at the sight was pleasure.
The goose saw Ezra, too, and gave
him one last reproachful look, and
then stretched out its neck full length,
bent 1t around so 1t could get good
grip on it with it's bill, held it fast.
and whirled its body around until it
had wrung its head off.
AT that very minute Ezra ran across
the little pile of feathers Fluenza had
been saving up, and all at once he un-
derstood everything, and he rushed
down to the yard, but too late. There
was the goose in one corner of the
yard, and its head in another, and in
its bill the two feathers, showing 1t
was faithful to the last. Ezra looked
at his watch and saw 1t was just 4
p. M, and then he sat down on the
soap kettle and wept, and for every
three tears he shed for Fluenza he
shed one for the goose, regularly, all
afternoon, until the sun set and then
he went indoors and kept on shedding
until bed time in the same ratio.

The Open.1op Tree.

1t is not necessary to go over the
tree trying to cut off every little twig.
The leaders are the ones that need
attention. When heading in these
leaders it is best to cut them off to
side branch. rather than to dor
mant bud. Frequently when an in
experienced man practices heading-in
he is tempted to shear the tree all
over and leave it smooth, oval form.
1t will be seen that this is very differ
ent from the method described above,
where only the leaders are cut back
and the side shoots thinned. so as to
leave an open top. The amount of
heading-in to be done should vary
from year to year, according as the
crop promises to be large or small
AS the tree gets older less heading-in
is usually necessary.

sells which form such a complex net
work around the foot. This part of
the foot has to do more than its share
of work. Corns are chiefly found on the
inside of the foot because of the habit
of fitting the shoes closer to the CEN
ter of the frog than the outside, thus
throwing the work on the inside heel.
Another error is making shoes right

when there is no distinction in the
anatomy? The foot has as many points
of observation as a marine compass
and each point must be rigidly OBJ
served If we wish to be successful in
manipulating the ailments of the foot.

Apple Standard Fruit.

The apple is and always will be a
standard fruit over large areas. There
is never a season but that some ap-
pies of some varieties make yield
and the good years make up for the
bad. Fruit may be cheap good years,
but it can be worked up in many ways
so that it can be used during years
when there is light crop. The fam
lily orchard on the farm is almost
worth keeping for ornament and
shade. even though it never produced
any fruit.
