Short Notes About Swine.

1t Is not profitable to keen too
many hogs in one bunch. If each
SOW and litter can be kept in separ-
ate lots until the pigs are old enough
to wean. better results will be OBJ
tanned. 1t is also generally best to
keep no more than twenty or twenty
I'VE pigs or grown hogs in one bunch.
The practicability of this will depend
on the cost OF separating larger num-
bers. If 1T can he done at a moderate
cost 1t will usually be found to pay.
A COW that has recovered from
cholera without having her general
Visor lessened is much more valuable,
other things being equal, than a SOW
that has never had cholera. If kept.
she is an insurance against cholera

Pigs need most attention when
young and will pay more for what
they get at that time than at any
other. 1t is not economy to feed a
SOW six months to raise a litter OF
pigs and then allow her to kill one
fourth of them for the lack Of a few
hours attention.
Remember that the pigs that grow
fastest while young are usually the
most profitable. When you are feed

fore. after the pigs are three or four
weeks old be liberal with the feed I'D

Do not breed the young SOW until
she is nine months old. and then keen
her breeding regularly two litters a
year until she begins to decline from
old age or is proved apoor brood SOW.
Aged sows are much less likely to
fail to breed regularly il kept con-
stantly at It.
The most critical periods of the
pigs life. as regards his feeding. are
the first three weeks, when over
feeding OF the SOW may derange his
digestion. and the first month or two
after weaving, when If fed too much
or unwisely, his digestion may be i'm
paired. or If not fed enough, he will
be "stunted" and may fail to fully re-
cover from it later.
Dc not worry about the SOW getting
too fat in the 40 DAYS between
breeding and farrowing time. II CIV
en- plenty OF exercise and a balanced
ration she will not get too fat in four
months after sucking a litter of pigs.
Any good brood sow will lose flesh
while sucking a good-sized litter of
pigs. and if in good flesh at farrowing
time she has some reserve to draw on
Tor the benefit of her pigs.
The habit of feeding hogs corn
and nothing but corn, save what they
gather in the woods or a pasture
where nothing grows. has become so
thoroughly fixed that it continues re-

us millions every year. and we can ill

Celestial Communication.

A story comes from a Kentucky
town that is worth repeating. There
lives there a woman who saws that
She has immediate communion with
the Almighty, and now and then de-
hvers to those of common clay a mes
sage that she has received from on
high. The fact that these messages
sometimes take on very materialis-

ness, in her opinion.
One day she went into the office
OF well-known attorney and ap-

Chance For Butter Makers.

There are numerous families in all
the larger towns of the South that
are regularly paying thirty-five cents
to forty cents per pound for Elgin
creamery butter and would willingly
pay the same price for butter of equal
quality. delivered cacn week by the
farmers OF the section. Many farm
crs over the State make contract
with a merchant, hotel or private GUS
toner to furnish butter regularly each
week at about thirty cents per pound, ,
and when n farmer has to accept a
low price for his butter it is usually
on account OF its inferior quality

GOOD LUCK TO sPARRoWS.
Shoe Thrown at Departing Bride
Now Home for Bird Family.

Shoe Thrown at Departing Bride
Now Home for Bird Family.
Suspended from the branches Of a
tree in McDonough street, near Reid
avenue, Brooklyn, the New York Her
aid says, is an old shoe which long ago
served it's term of usefulness to hui
mainly, but which now affords a COM
Portable home for Mr.. and Mrs. Spar
row and their little brood of baby spar
rows, which are just about old enough
to fly.
For three years the old shoe, care
lessly thrown into the tree after serv-
ing as a good-luck emblem at a we'd
ding, has been swinging in the branch
es, defying wind and weather. There
have been storms in the neighbOrhood
that have uprooted trees and broken
off their branches, but the tree in
which the old shoe has found a lodg-
ment has withstood all weather sieges.
Not long ago two sparrows came into
the neighborhOod and started house
keeping in the old shoe, which affords
them shelter and is sufficiently large
for the simple tastes of aerial Hat
jewellers.
Whether or not the great nation of
birds is ruled by an ornithological
Roosevelt is not known, but certain it
is that Mr. and Mrs. Sparrow are not
believers in race suicide, and since TAX
ing up their abode in the old shoe they
have raised a large brood.
The Sparrow family has many of
the comforts and conveniences of life.
The opening in the shoe serves all the
purposes of a vestibule. The tip not
only makes a fine piazza for the whole
Sparrow family in fair weather, but
makes a fine swing for the Sparrow
children when the wind is gently blow
ing. Judging from the chirping, the
baby birds enjoy their fun just as
much as human children might enjoy
an old orchard swing.
Residents of the neighborhood. even
the children, appreciate the situation
and every day one of the families
whose homes are near the tree leaves
out food so that the father and mother
bird need not send any of their brood
to bed hungry.
