MULE FOOTED HOGS.
They Have Lost the Cloven Hoof and
Are Cholera Proof.

They Have Lost the Cloven Hoof and
Are Cholera Proof.
There are few solid or mule foot
ed hogs raised in this territory. We
know of few herds that have been
crossed with Poland-Chinas and Du-
roc-Jerseys for several generations
but they still retain solid hoofs and
are apparently as cholera-proof as
ever. 1t is rather strange that some
one does not take up the improve
ment of these hogs in earnest and
develop them along the lines of our
well established breeds. The fact
that they are not subject to cholera
and swine plague ought to make
them good material to work on.
To those who are not familiar with
these swine the following, which ap-
peared in the Journal of Agriculture,
by DR.. w. j. Connor. will be Of in
terest:
"In color the mule footed hog re-
sembles very much the common hog.
Most of them are black and white
the last few years these hogs were
not brought into much prominence
but In the next few years they prom
Use to take their place with the pres
ent breeds II they can be bred fast
enough to supply the demand. have
been breeding these hogs for a num-
ber Of years. They are the best range
hogs in the United States and they
will live and prosper where a COM
mon hog will starve to death. The
flesh OF these hogs is sweet and there
is proportionately more meat than
fat. These hogs fatten at any age,
and II fed long enough will grow to
very large size. l have improved
them until they are now blocky, close
made, with heavy hams and are cas-
lily fattened and obtain a weight of
from 500 to 500 pounds. The sows
are good mothers and are very pro-
life, narrowing from eight to six
teen pigs to a litter, and generally
raising all Of them.
These hogs were originally brought
from the South Sea Islands for the
use of the Indians in the South.
Many of them are sold to museums,
others are shipped to Kansas City
markets and eight or ten are butch
cred each year for home consumption
on the farm. In the last two years
I have sold a great many to shows,
while many others have been shipped
to almost every state and territory
in America. l consider them the
coming hogs in the United States
for many reasons. They never have
the cholera; the round hoof Of the
mule foot seems to exempt them
from that dreaded disease. This
alone will give them a place among
the hog raisers.
Many of these hogs have wattles
on their lower jaws. For the benefit
of those who do not know what wat
ties are, 1 will say that they are a
round or teat-like piece of skin or
gristle hanging on each side of the
jaw, covered with hair, and hang
down on full grown hog from three
to four inches.

Plans For New Dairy Barns.

For the past two or three years
the Dairy Division of the Depart
ment of Agriculture has been max
ing an investigation of all the prin-
ciple dairy barns in the United States
and a study of the best methods of
construction, with reference to con-
venience. cheapness in feeding and
handling of stock sanitation, etc.
The result is that the division has a
large number Of plans suitable for
building barns and stables of vary
ing costs. so that anyone contem-
plating building a barn can obtain
by simply corresponding with the
chief of the division, a set of build
ing plans which will probably just
about meet his needs.

At his boyhood it was hard to say
whether the young Fulton was more
the inventor or the artist, but as soon
as the war ended he decided that he
should become a PAINTER, and went
to Philadelphia, then the chief city
of the new nation, to study his art.
He made enough money by the use
of his pencil and by making draw
ings for machinists, to support him
self, and also saved enough money to
buy a small farm for his widowed
mother and younger brothers and
sisters.
Benjamin West, the great painter,
had lived near Lancaster, and had
heard much of Fulton's boyhood in
ventions, and he now hunted him out
in Philadelphia, and helped him in
his new line of work. The young
artist met Benjamin Franklin and
found him eager to further his plans
and so, by dint of perseverance
and the friends he was fortunate
enough to make, he laid the founda-
tions for his future.
When he became a man the spirit
of the inventor finally overcame that
of the painter. He went abroad and
studied in laboratories in England
and France, and then he came home
and built a workshop Of his own
What particularly interested him
was the uses to which steam might
be applied, and he studied its posi-
plans for practical steamboat. How
successful those plans were all the
world knows.

Rock Salt for Colts.

Place a large lump of rock salt in
the managers, so 1t will be in reach
OF every weanling colt. Youngsters
that have constant access to salt will
be less liable to suffer from stomach
worms than those which are deprived
OF salt,

Ducks do not need water to swim
in, although they enjoy it very much.
Some Of the largest duck farms,
where thousands of ducks are grown
and marketed provide no water ex-
cept for drinking purposes. If they
can get their heads under they will
do we'll.

Give Colts a Chance.

Young horses need exercise; with
out It. 1t is impossible for the mus
cles to develop, hence the necessity
of a good-sized field to run In. II
you would have horses of endurance,
give the colts a chance to develop
their muscles.

For Hauling Out Manure.

The cut shows a manure track that
will not cost more than a few Genes
and will be just as good as one that
cost many dollars. The wheelbarrow
can be made large; the man carries
half the load so it will not be so hard
on wire. The wheelbarrow can be
pulled inside the door or set outside.

Tonic Sunlight.

Sunlight is an excellent tonic. Ev-
cry stall should be 30 situated as to
admit Of sunlight during some part
OF the day when the weather ia

tilation are essential to good health
among members Of the equine, as
