How long he struggled against disease
That baffled skill and care;
How long he fingered, racked with pain,
And suiferngs hard to bear.
What grief and pain he suffered here,
None of us will ever know;
For Jesus took him home with him,
Where no tears ever flow.
Dear father, you will never be forgotten,
Never shall your memory fade,
Sweetest thoughts will ever linger,
Around the grave where you are lai J..

Prevention Of Hog Cholera.

DR.. ]. w. Connoway of the Missouri
experiment station at Columbia has
discovered a serum for the prevention
of hog cholera. The serum is in the
form of vaccine, and If it is injected
into the blood of a hog before it has
become infected with cholera the hog
becomes immune to the disease The
serum was discovered through the
fact that when hog has once recov-
cred from an attack of cholera it is
proof against another attack, even if
it is exposed to diseased hogs. for it
has developed something in its blood
which makes it proof against the dis
ease The serum has been used on
1900 hogs in different parts of the
state, and very few have developed
cholera after being properly vacci-
mated, although exposed to the dis
ease The serum is kept in supply by
the agricultural department of the
University of Missouri and will be dis
pensed free to the farmers of the
state.

GOOD MARE FOR MULE BREEDING.
services of the best jack to be found.
From such a cross there will be pro-
duced a large, heavy boned mule that
will make a first class work animal
upon the farm; also one that is read
lily salable at any time after he has
reached three years of age.
The average of mule prices is higher
than for horses, and this Is well illus
trated by statistics. For instance, on
Jan. /. 1908, there were in the United
States 19992.OO0 horses, valued at
$93.41 per head, and 3,869,0O0 mules,
valued at 107.76 per head. In the past
ten years there has been a steady in
crease in the number of mules raised,
while the prices per head have rapidly
increased from year to year.
The grade Percheron mare shown in
the illustration is the kind of mare
that produces the large. strong mules
which sell for the good. long prices.
Mule foals at weaving time sell for
$50 to $50 and at two and half to
three years old sell for from 500 to
1925, according to size and condition.
This range in prices shows the impor-
tance of size in the dam and good feed
ing from weaving time until sold,
though some farmers seem to think
that mule will thrive on whatever
will keep a. goat Though not dainty
feeders and quite hardy. mules will
repay their owners for shelter and
good feed provided for them to the
same extent any other animal will
Good draft horses sell for better
prices than mules bring and cost very
little more to produce. but there is a
brisk demand for good mules at prof
liable prices, and there is no reason
why the farmer possessing good, large
mares should not produce some mules.

Suggestions by Newspaper Man Who
Writes Of Grange News.
At meeting of the Grange Lecturers
and Masters Association of Jefferson
County, N. Y, L. l. Allen delivered an
address on "The Work of the Grange
Correspondent" In writing grange
news for the press, be remarked, spe-
cial attention should be given to facts
of general interest The letter, it must
be remembered, will be read by hun
dreds or thousands outside the mem
bership of the one particular grange
whose proceedings are made public.
Consequently so far as possible the re-
port should minimize the features of
interest to the few and make promi-
nent what will be of interest to the
many 1t is of general interest to know
the result of discussions on public
questions brought up in the grange.
Some correspondents mention the fact
that their grange discussed certain
current topic, but neglect what is
more important to tell-what was the
verdict of the grange.
The discussion In the grange of i'm
portant current events and of various
phases of farm and domestic life,
with the many problems involved, is
increasing In a most gratifying man
ner. In fact, it is right here that lies
the oranges greatest opportunity for
good. The grange thus becomes a
training school, sort of miniature
farmers institute, where personal
views and experiences are compared
for the good Of all. Where there is
some uniformity in the discussion OF
questions by the oranges in one county
or section the reports Of these discus
sions become the more interesting, and
by study of these published in re-
ports the reader is enabled to know the
drift Of opinions among these repre-
sentative agriculturists on public ques-
tions. The correspondent then should
give in his report concise summary
of the views expressed, for it is inf
nitely Of more value to know what the
members think on certain question
than to be simply told that the grange
discussed the topic.
In reporting the literary features OF
grange program it is better to limit
the report to list Of those who par
ticipated rather than to include In full
the subject of every recitation and
song. Any unusual FIXTURES deserve
more space than ordinary routine
work. When the grange is honored by
visit from some state or county off
Ger or is addressed by some speaker
who presents ideas which deserve a
wider field brief synopsis Of the ad-
dress will add value to the report.

also prevents the cakes from freezing
together so solidly. When filling loose
boards are placed in front of the
doors, and about ten or twelve inches
back of them is filed in with sawdust.
The icehouse is filed from a pond
and the cakes cut from twenty-five to
thirty-five inches square. A common
wagon box will hold two tiers, thirty
cakes of eight inch ice. The capacity
of this icehouse is forty tons, but Of
course any size could be built on the
same plan, and larger one would
keep the ice in much better condi-
ton.
