FATTENING AND
MARKETING HOGS
BY Prof. w. j. Kennedy, Iowa
Experiment Station.

The age at which hogs should be
upon the market demands and the
locality. In some countries and in
different sections of the same country
we find that there are differences in
the market demands. AS general
rule in this country the fat or lard
hog has been the most popular.
When such is the case 1t is better to
market hogs at the weight of from
300 to 400 pounds. These seem to
meet with the most popular favor of
the buyers.
In other sections of the country
and in other markets where the bacon
type Of hog is preferred over the fat
or lard hog, they must be marketed at
an earlier age. The best weight for
the bacon hog is between 160 and 200
pounds. They do not require to be
nearly as fat as the fat or lard hog;
still, on the other hand, bacon hog
is by no means a thin animal. They
should have a covering Of about one
inch of fat over the back. They
should be deep sided and long sided,
and must be firm in quality. Where
the bacon hog is desired, as a gen.
eral rule 1t will be found most profit
able to have the hogs fattened and
finished for market at about five and
one-haIf or six months of age.
Where the fat or lard hog is desired
the most profitable age to market in
order to meet the requirements of the
market would be about eight to ten
months. Hogs Of this age should
weigh in the neighborhood Of 800 to
$50 pounds AS a general rule, how
ever, 1t may be stated that the great
est and especially the most econom-
ical gains are made on the younger

animals. This is one point in favor
of the bacon hog.
The season of the year at which
the fattening should be done will de-
pend upon various conditions. In a
great many instances, hogs are fat.
tened during the fall and early winter.
In other instances they are fattened
during the spring and early summer.
Generally speaking the most econom-
ical gains can be made during the
early fall or spring months. The
weather is then not too cold nor too
warmth fact. about right for the
best gains In real cold weather a
considerable amount of the feed 10
used for the production Of heat to sup
ply the heat required for the main
tenance of the animal body. In real
warm weather. on the other hand, a
considerable amount of feed may be
wasted Where two filters per year
are to be reared, IL will be found best
to fatten the first bunch and market
them during the months of September
and October. The second litter should
be fattened and ready for market
some time during the latter part Of
March or the month of April. These
are things which each and every feed
er must, to a certain extent, control
himself.

LINDSEY SEEKS
JUVENILE LAWS
WOULD REMOVE ALL CHlLDREN'S
CASES FROM CRIMINAL
COURTS.
DISCIPLINE OFFICERS
PARENTS OR GUARDIANS TO BE
HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR
DELiNQUENTS.

Denver.-Judge Ben b. Lindsey. of
the Denver Juvenile Court, together
with senators and representatives in
sympathy with his views, is urging n
number of important measures. First
of all he is advocating the removal OF
children's cases entirely from the
criminal courts and placing all juve-
nile cases. except those relating to
probate matters, under the chancery
division of the Juvenile Court.
Instead of swearing out criminal
complaint against a child or parent,
as is often done now, a petition to the
Judge of the Juvenile or County Court
where there is no Juvenile Court Will
be sufficient. And in the case of a
delinquent or dependent child, the par
ent or guardian must prove that he or
she is not responsible for such con
dition. the burden of proof being Ia
ken from the state.
Another act concerning the chancery
powers of the courts in case of the
dependency or delinquency of children,
provides for carrying out an idea,
originated by Judge Lindsey, to pre-
vent great expense to the county or

WHERE SHE SIZED UP.

Dr. Charles F. Aked of New York recently gave the young women of his congregation some excellent ad- vice about matrimonial extrava- gance. Compared with the English girl, the American girl is a great spendthrift. Shortly after the re- turn of the fleet two naval officers were talking about their wives. Naturally they used nautical terms.
 "What a dear little craft your wife is," said the first.
 "Dear and little,' did you say? She is dear, all right, but there is nothing little about her. Why, she is the biggest revenue cutter I have ever n."-Cleveland Leader.

NOVEL KIND OF PIANO.

The dulcitone of Thomas Machell of Glasgow has the keyboard of a piano, but the key hammers produce sound by striking steel forks-like shankless tuning forks-instead of wires. A semi-circular steel spring carries tine vibrations from each fork to the sounding board. The tone is softer than that of the piano, but it has a great clearness and carrying power, and is adapted for solo play ing as well as for accompanying other instruments of the voice. Im- portant advantages are the lack of necessity of tuning and the port ability. A dulcitone of five octaves weighs but 45 pounds, but piano of the same range has weight of 250 pounds or more.

Zenas Dudley of Hampden has a
 hen that will lay every day provid- ing she can lay where she wants to, and that is sitting on top of pole.
 The only reason why this hen wishes to perch on the tip end of pole when laying can be accounted for only by the fact that she laid her first egg on top of pole. When she was small bullet she was frightened
 one day and flew to the top of a tall pole in the yard. The dog kept her there for some time, and during the time she laid her first egg. Never a time since then has she laid an egg except when she has been on the top of some pole. A pole has been set up in the hen yard where this hen can make her daily layings. A small net bag is placed around the pole to catch the eggs.-Kennebec Journal.

TO COLOR MEERSCHAUM PIPE.
Some Rules Which the Smoker Must Follow If He Would Get the
 Best Results.

The following information should appeal to smokers: Ordinarily a meerschaum pipe is boiled for col bring in preparation of wax, which is absorbed, and thin coating of wax is held on the surface of the pipe and made to take high polish. Under the wax is retained the oil of tobacco which is absorbed by the pipe, and its hue grows darker in proportion to the tobacco used. A meerschaum pipe at first should be smoked slowly and before a second bowlful is lighted the pipe should cool off. This is to keep the wax as far up to the bowl as possible, and rapid smoking will overheat, driving the wax off and leaving the pipe dry and raw.
 A new pipe never should be smoked outdoors in extremely cold weather. Fill the pipe and smoke down about one-third, or to the height to which you wish to color. Leave the remainder of the tobacco in the pipe and do not empty or dis turb it for several weeks, or until the desired color is obtained. When smoking, put fresh tobacco on the top and smoke to the same level. When once burned the pipe can not be satisfactorily colored unless the burned portion is removed, and the surface again treated by the process by which meerschaum is prepared. The coloring is produced by the &C., tion of the smoke upon the oils and wax which are superfcially on the exterior of the pipe, and are applied in the same process of manufacture.
