Prices recovered rapidly after the mar

better to us than 1t has for some days.
We believe the market has seen low

profits. 1t would not surprise us if
the recent high prices would be passed

Crawling Stone Wash.

When Whispering Smith and his
companions were fairly started on the
last day of their ride, it was toward
rift in the Mission range that the trail
led them. Sinclair, with consummate
cleverness, had rejoined his compan-
ions; but the attempt to get into the
Cache, and his reckless ride into Medi-
cine Bend, had reduced their chances
of escape to a single outlet, and that
they must find up Crawling Stone val
ley. The necessity of it was spelled
made for "a hours. They were riding
the pick of mountain horsef1esh and
covering their tracks by every device
known to the high country. Behind
them, made prudent by unusual dan

 With cistern water 1t is different. as the principal contamination of rain water comes from dirt on the roof The water itself is pure enough until it strikes the roof.

Tn some sections of the country q great many cisterns are made this way and covered by putting timbers across anc building a floor of double thick inch stuff, laid to break joints.

 A great deal better way is to make a round form of beveled slaves lightly hooped to hold them in place.

Then mix concrete made of one part best portland cement, two parts clean, sharp sand and four parts broken stone.

FORAGE CROPS FOR PIGS

Favorable Results Prem Experinaus~E
 Made From Green Crops.
 The question: of forage crops for pigs is one which is of decided importance- as 1t is well known that the use ~f~ such feed is valuable and profitable
 Cowpeas without grain have SO far given better results at the Mississippi, station, 1t is stated, than any other af- the crops tested. In one season the cowpeas were grown on thin hill land. and produced $50 pounds of pork per acre when pigs were grazed upon them. The next season the crop was grown on good valley land and pro duced 4S3 pounds of pork per acre. The pigs were turned on the pasturage- when the cowpeas were ripe. AlfslfS without grain was found ito be little more than maintenance ration for hogs" The pigs used fin the test, which covered two years, ranged from three 70 twenty-four months in age.
 Alfalfa, clover, rape and blue grass@ supplementing corn were compared with rations of corn and ship stun and corn and skimmilk at the Mis- souri station. The cornmeal, whkcta was of medium fneness, was mixed with water to the consistency of s- thick dough and was fed twi>e daily in such quantities as would be eatetsa without waste. In the skimmilk ra- tion the meal was wet with milk in stead of with water The green crops were fed twice daily immediately after cutting and were supplied ad libiturn- The rape was rather large and coarse. and only the fresh green leaves were used. Some of the alfalfa was rather too mature and coarse to be eaten with relish, but the remainder wasE considered of fairly satisfactory quaf- ity The red clover and blue grass were for the most part young and ten der.
 The feeding was continued for 1G2. days except with the rape fed lot which was fed for forty days onty the supply of rape being then exhaust ed. Considering the first forty dayx- the gains on green feed ranged from 0.5S pound. per pig per day on the rapcr ration to O.T4 pound on cornmeal and alfalfa, the gain on cornmeal and mid dlIngs being 0.61 pound and on corn meal and s!limmilk 1.53 pounds. Con sidering the whole test, the average daily gain Ter pig on the ratious cou- tsiniug green feed was as follows. Cornmeal and blue grass, 0!0S pound cornmeal and clover, CIT pound; corna- meal and alfalfa, 0.S3 pound; corn, meal and mlddlings, 0.6S pound. auG on cornmeal and skimmilk L61i pounds. The smallest amount of grIfu per pound of gain, 2.S3 pounds, was noted with the corn and skimmilR TX ton and the largest amount hah grass. The gain was most cheaply made on cornmeal and skimmilk, cost ing 2.S3 cents per pound, and was mosn, expensive on cornmeal and middliucS- costing 4.07 cents. On the green feeds 1t ranged from cents on cornmemE and alfalfa to 3.96 cents on cornmen1 and blue grass
 In the opinion of Professor CottFett of the Colorado station, farmers livSuG in the plains region of Colorado wfKa find raising and fattening pigs advRn- tageous, and barley, wheat, milo unkse and Kaffir corn are regarded as tEnc- surest grain crops for the dry Ian<I farming conditions which there pre- vail. The importance of supplemezsE- ing grain is insisted upon.

 Disease germs follow rainwater down into the soil to percolate through to the well. Persons using the water continually become immune. so they may not contract a serious disease for years. but a severe cold may weaken their vitality and disease resisting power, so they may become infected at any time.

The Manure spresder.

The manure spreader is a compara- lively recent device, which is not only a considerable labor saver, but a con- servator of fertility. The practice of dumping manure in piles in the field and then spreading with the fork is uneconomical and, moreover. causes loss in fertility unless the manure is spread immediately, which is not al- ways possible.

The situation may be summed up as

(from the number of dwellings erect

people to her population in less than

to state that of the 250 dwellings erect

1t seems that a dapper chap in the

come unusually friendly with an at

Buffalo, the masher, in taking leave
of the lass, remarked:
do you know, 1 must thank you
for an awflly, awflly pleasant time;
but I'm afraid you would not have
been so nice to me had you known that
