QUESTION AND ANSWER DEPARTMENT.
SUGGESTIONS TO HOG RAISERS

subjected swine since bringing them
under domestication should be entirely
at variance with the environment to
which they were accustomed in a state
OF nature. II is well known that the
wild hog lives largely on grass, roots,
mast. etc, yet IL is generally believed
that the only way TO grow hogs is
through the use OF corn, grain and
skim milk. and these failing, the bust
ness must Of necessity be abandoned.
In the south where there are thousands
upon thousands of acres of rough land,
yielding an abundance OF mast. and
where such a variety of leguminous
crops can be grown successfully, the
lack of corn and skim milk need not
deter anyone from entering the field Of
swine husbandry and making the bust
ness highly profitable.

GAVE BLOOD TO SAVE
BLOODLESS PATIENT

CHICAGO, June 2s.-An apparently success
full operation in which Chicago physician
gave HIS blood TO save the life Of his brother,
has been performed in Wesley hospital. Ut.
James F. Churchill, a member OF the hospital
staff allowed his blood TO be transfused into
the veins Of George Churchill, is years old,
OF Minneapolis.
George Churchill was taken to the hospital
suffering from pcrnicious anemia, which medi-
cal authorities say is rarely cured. The dis
ease is ascribed TO the lack Of red corpucles in
the blood. which. in consequence loses its re-
productive power and practically becomes dead.
Dr. Churchill believed that the infusion OF
healthy blood into the patients veins might
effect cure After consultation II was de-
cded TO try the operation.
The young man has been discharged from
the hospital and gone to his home apparently
greatly improved in health and In fair way
to recovery.

THE CAUSE OF SHORTENING"

THE CAUSE OF SOLDERING"
il. c.: have a mule which when not
at work will stand with her tongue out
and slobber.
The cause Of SOLDERING on the part OF
your mule may be due to one OF several
causes. The trouble may be due to i'm
proper food. but is more likely the result
Of a sore mouth. which is frequently caus-
ed by bad teeth. The first thing TO do is
to examine the mouth of the animal very
carefully and see IL the trouble can not
be discovered therein and then remove the
cause liberated and broken teeth are
frequently a source OF much trouble and
annoyance. II will often be found that
the teeth have worn down unevenly and
lacerated the tongue. When the teeth are
found 20 be In bad condition, they should
be carefully gone over and filed down II
necessary to remove the Irregularities.
But since the teeth OF the mule are natu-
rally rough. filing should not be done in
discriminatory. We believe IL you will
examine the mouth carefully you will find
the trouble is due TO some defect In the
teeth and that you can remedy the trou-
BILE as suggested.

QUERIES ANSWERED

SORE HEAD IN CHICKENS.
A. L o., Franklin. Ga. writes: I would
like to have some Information on the dis
ease OF chickens known as sore head;
also the cause Of my cabbage dying af-
ter they have been trsnsplanted four or
I'VE weeks.
While there may be several causes for
the disease which you term sore head, II
is probable that roup is the cause OF
the trouble, as this is quite common
disease among farm poultry and has
caused serious losses siRee II is commu-
nicated quite readily from one chicken to
another, and incapacitates the fowls for a
considerable length of time. Unsanitary
conditions are nearly always responsible
for the trouble. Among the symptoms
observed is a thin. watery discharge from
the nostrils followed by difficult breath
ing In later stages Of the disease the
discharge becomes thicker and more
sticky and causes frequent sneezing. The
side Of the head becomes swollen, and
the fowl often becomes blind and pre-
sents a most unsightly appearance.
The treatment Is as follows: Remove all
sick birds and thoroughly cleanse and dis
infect the house; give wholesome and
easily digested food. An antiseptic solu-
ton may be injected into the nose and
roof Of the mouth. One of the following
formulas may be used: A per cent solu-
ton Of creolin or carbolic acid; or kerr
osene oil mixed with equal parts of lard
and cotton seed oil.
Your cabbage is undoubtedly affected
with cabbage maggot. which is the most
serious cabbage pest. II you are growing
cabbage on a small scale hand picking
the maggots will prove the most effective;
II Is also a good plan TO place tarred
paper cards snugly around the base OF the
plants to keep the ny away.

sown?
One of the most effective ways of de-
stroying small patches of Johnson grass
with which we are acquainted is to pen
hogs on II. They may not relish the
Johnson grass at first, but when they
acquire a liking for II and learn how to
get at the fleshy roots, they will hunt
for them industriousy. Johnson grass is
one of the most tenacious of life of all
the grasses and one of the most difficult
to control and eradicate, and we would
hesitate to plant 1t on any arabic lane
as 1t would destroy II for agricultural
purposes because OF the difficulty of get
ting rid of IT, The seed weigh about
IS pounds per bushel and one bushel
should be used per acre. It may be sown
any time after danger of frost is past
in the spring, but II is probably better
to SOW II rather early in the season thar
later. When 1t becomes we'll established
II may be cut two to four times during
the season. After it grows for while
and the roots become matted in the soil
the yield decreases. The ground should
then be broken to break up the roots and
It will yield vigorously for time. While
making a good nutritious hay we car
hardly recommend it's use for the reasons
given with reference to it's control and
eradication.

Its annual session in Monte Ne, Ark. This

We are glad that yau find the columns Of
the Journal helpful and of practical value
in the solution of the problems which
confront you as a farmer. The plant
which your cows are eating and which
causes the milk TO be bitter Is known to
us as bitter weed" II occurs commonly
throughout the south. and generally gives
the most trouble in the early spring when
IL is small and the cows naturally eat
some OF II when cropping short grass.
Later in the season when the weed grows
up and flowers the animals do not seem
to eat II because II is more prominent in
the grass. There is no remedy for this
trouble with which we are acquainted
at this time. We hope to undertake this
summer some experiments in spraying
this weed with copper sulphate with the
hope of destroying IT, Copper sulphate
has been found effective in the destruc-
ton OF wild mustard and various other
weeds. but II has never been tried on
bitter weed. II our experiments are sue
cessful we win publish the results Of the
information Of the public.
In dealing with bitter weed, we have
found the following practice very helpful.
We turn our COWS out after milking in
the morning and allow them to remain
out until about twelve o'clock. when they
are brought into the lot and kept there
until milking time. Then we turn them
out again about six o'clock and let them
stay until about nine. and bring them In
again In this way the trouble from BIT
ter weed has been greatly lessened; In
fact, almost entirely controlled, and the
cows have had sufficient time in which

German millet is a fair soiling CROP

Little Doing This
 Week In Congress Senate May Delay
 Lurton's Confirmation Tennesseean's Age Against Him Is Opinion of Some Senators, but Little Oppos- iiOn Is Expected

Washington. Dec. 19.-With less than a quorumof either house in the city, all legislation in con- gress during the next two days will undertake nothing more than the passage of some. minor bills and the completion of its work on the District of Columbia apprA opriation bill, which already has been under consideration two or three days.
 It has beenhoped that the army supply bill might be taken up and disposed of before adjournment, but that program has been aban- doned in the face of the depart ure of so many member,
 The senate will undertakes little except the confirmation of Horace Lurton to be associte justice of the supreme court of the United States. The nomina-| tion will be reported favorably| by the senate Monday and an effort made to have it acted upon. Indications are that there will be no objection and that. MT. Lurton's confirmation will take place before the holidays.
 It is not expected that a quo-- rum will be present either Mon day or Tuesday and if such should prove to be the case a call for an aye and no vote would have the effect of postponing action until January No one seems wilHngto accept this responsibility and Senator Bacon of the judiciary committee who has charge of the nomination is hopeful that such a call will not be asked.
 Undeniably there are a number of senators who consider MT, Lurton's age against him, but their objection does not go to extent of pronounced opposition
 Some investigation is being made of Judge Lurton's decision on the circuit bench, with aview to determining the foundation of the charge that they are in the interest of corporations and statement covering this phase probably will be presented to the, senate.
 In the main, the disposition is to. let the president have his way in the selection of a success sor to JustieePe Peckham but many senators are disposed to make record regarding Mr.. sLurton's shortcomings if he has any. If it were a question of success or defeat MT. Lurton would have many champions and there is no doubt that he would be confirm ed on a vote. The only question involved at this time is the ad visibility of delay He would be confirmed soon after the holi--- days even thought the question should be deferred.
 Both houses will adjourn Tues day for two weeks.
