whils others are of the opinion that
the hog should have plenty of clean
water. The hog needs great deal
of 1sater in hot weather, and If he
cannot get it he will take mud as the
next best thing. A hog rushes to a
mud hole to cool off. He comes out
and the mud dries on his skin. The

KEEPING THE PLANT Healthy.
Care Of the Jardiniere 10 Of the High
est Importance.

mistake that causes many failures
in growing palms, ferns and other
plants that are stood in jardinieres, is
that the water which drains through
the earth and the hole in the bottom
of the earthenware pot is allowed to
accumulate in the jardiniere.
In this way plant is often soaked
in water for days at time and natur-
ally 1t becomes soggy and sickly.
An easy way to overcome this diff
Guilty is, about is minutes after plant
has been thoroughly watered lift 1t
from the jardiniere and wipe out all
moisture that has drained through.
This may seem like trouble. but 1t is
not half the bother of dickering with
sickly plants.

J EXCLUSIVE CORN FEEDING.
The Best Results Not Obtained On
Such a Diet.

While in the average lot for hogs
the main grain diet is corn. there are
instances where even this can be over
done. While corn ranks alone as q
fattening food, there are some ami
mails which cannot handle 1t as q
steady diet and to avoid difficulties Of
this kind it is better to vary the r;.-
ton for fattening hogs trife to in
sure the general health of the entire
drove A long feeding of corn with
out any variation will quite frequently
cause chronic cases of constipation.

VALUE OF PEDIGREE.
II Counts When It Comes to Breed
ing Sheep.

Pedigree is record of the names
ana numbers of an animals ancestors.
and If by studying same of certain
sheep you learn that for many gener
ations it's sires and dams have been
of high quality. Is not this sheep to
be much more desired for the breed
ing flock than one whose ancestors
are of little note? The flock masters
!. in England are very particular about
1his and we all know of the success
they have obtained.
If sheep of certain breeding meet
your ideals you had better obtain as
much of that blood as possible and
then continue along the same line,
suggests Farmers Review. II pedi-
gree is of no value. why have the
worlds best breeders practiced line
breeding? They value 1t highly be-
cause sheep whose sires and dams
are of certain type will produce
lambs with the same desirable char
acteristics. Although registered, GER
tain individuals may have short ped
isree. their ancestors are practically
unknown. and if with undesirable
characteristics same Will be in evil
demo, among the lambs. sooner or
later Although there are exceptions
to ali laws of breeding, to be reason
ably sure of the best results you
should know that your purchases have
high class ancestors.
Pedigree is not TO be valued higher
than Individual merit, but as a rule
sheep which combine the two will
give best possible results. as breed
ers. To insure that the lamb crop
will be uniformly true to type we
must pay attention to the blood rep
resented in the breeding tlocks, and
success in our pure-bred breeding
will invite new men into the business.

vicinity take proper hold of it they
gain reputation which draws much
outside trade.

CHOICE MISCELLANY
An Arctic Crystal Palace.

Amid the bleak, icy deserts OF
Greenland the survivors Of the recent
Ill fated Erickson expedition discover
ed a sight Of majesty that solaced
them for months of darkness. tedium
and suffering, says the Buffalo News.
They found a crystal palace OF super
human architecture, ,vaster than a
dozen cathedrals and Egyptian tenn
pies. resplendent with jewels and end
less decorations of ice. Created by
nature In a forbiddfng wilderness, it
frightened the eyes of the explorers
and awed them with unimagined mag
nificence.
The dreams Of poets and the fancies
of epic bards were surpassed by this
vision of colossal loneliness, which the
painter, Achton Friis. member Of the
expedition. endeayored to carry away
for the benefit of dwellers in civiliza-
ton. More than mile in length, the
lofty nave of this arctic temple of ice
was pierced at intervals with windows,
through which the glancing sun rays
sparkled on columns and cubes and
immense clusters Of stalactites.
An iridescent glow, as If from opals
and diamonds. suffused the lighter
spaces and shaded into the blush twf
light which reigned In solemn tran
septs. The painter despaired of con-
pretending even the elusive colors
that emanated from every surface and
were infinitely touched by combina-
ton and reflection.
