Farmers Who Succeed.

the man that does not know all there
is to be known about farming. but
wants to know more. and the one that
says, Il believe if anybody can do it
I CANT
OF all hopeless cases in the world
none is more SO than the man who
thinks he has no more to learn. II
everybody were like such a man things
WOuld come to a uead s~tandstill. The
live man. the man hat makes the
world move. is the one who sees that
there is something beyond and who
is willing to try to reach that thing.
Take the man who says: MY place
looks pretty we'll this spring, but III
make it look BETTER or the one Who
tells you, My crops are good-never
better-but I can do still greater
%things.' There YOU have the secret
of progress in farming.
Go past the farms OF those men a
few years from now and you VIII

This is not ideal farming. for the
fact is the man who talks that way
has no ideal. He is not working to-
ware anything better than he now
has. The world needs idealists among
farmers, just as it does among artists,
poets and literary men.
The man with an ideal is the man
other men owe to follow.

Both before and after lambing is an
anxious time for the sheep raiser. as
he stands to lose considerable or to
gain a great deal.
Much is written about the treatment
of ewes after lambing and too little is
said about giving them extra care be
fOrehand.
If the eve is thin and weak the
lambs always make q bad start. for if
the milk is deficient both in quantity
and quality they are badly nOurished.
If only n is to be raised it may sue
coed better than twins, but even a
single lamb will have q hard time of
it ii the eve is pOOr.
| know there is danger in having
some kinds Of stock too fat at the
time OF producing their young but
very few ewes suffer from that.
1t is most undesirable tO have the
strength OF the eve impaired at this
time. as strength is needed to lamb
successfully, and condition is wanted
to provide amply for the lambs. For
this reason it would be we'll to put the
breeding ewes under careful surNeill-
ance for q time before lambing.
y heavy Goa of wool may give
them q fat appearance, but if the
bones are prominent it is not q good
sign. Extra care and superior food
daily are really necessary if one would
be quite sure the ewes are in proper
condition.
1t Is much cheaper and more salts
factory to do this han to make great
efforts to improve them afterward.-

NeWSend Views OfFurn1erS
A MANURE SPREADER PAYS.
They Give Better Results Than Are
Possible by the Old-FashiOned
Fork Method.
By G. MILLER.

We have never Yet heard of g farm
er who used a MANURE spreader who
went back to the Old-fashioned way
of pitching the manure 0Ut Of a wagon
with a fork. The advantages OF the
spreader over the old way OF using
a fork are so numerous and so PLAN
that no argument can overcome them.
In the first place. spreading manure
from q wagon is 4 dirty and disagree
able job. In the next place, it is ut
terly impossible to distribute the ma
nure evenly by this method.
BY the use Of q spraader a man can
get over q great deal more ground and
the manure win 90 very. much farther
becaUse it is evenly distributed.
If you will observe the meadows
where YOU have distributed anu by
the forkful, YOU will see that field
presents a spotted appearance. the
grass being rank III those places where
the struck the ground. but
scanty and sparse where no manure
reached it.
Ply the use of a wagon a man must
stand on the manure while distribute
ing it. and the starting and stopping
of the team takes time. and altogether
the Job is unsatisfactory.
With a manure Spreader all that is
necessary is to back the machine up
next to the back Of the barn under
the stable windows and empty the ma
nure INTO it daily and then when the
box is full mount the wagon, drive out
into the field. and without touching
the n with a fork it is quickly
and easily distributed.
~SpreaderS are so arranged that by a
little pressure on a lever the amount
of manur can he Increased on the
bare spots and shut off where not SO
much is needed.
There are plenty OF tWO-hOrse ma
nure spreaders, but most of them re-
Qulre three horses and sometimes
farmers use q double team for the
purpose. A good form Of spreader is
the wagon box type. 1t is simply a
box fitted with the machinery and
which Will go onto your wagon trucks.
They are quickly attached and are
light and handy. because they will go
anywhere that q wagon Will go.
These wagons can easily be handled
with two horses. \ good way to use
this spreader is to have two
on the outside OF the barn mean the
window upon which the box spreader
is placed But q better way is to
suspend the spreader from by
means of ropes and 3 pulley and when
the box is full run the trucks under.
let down the box and drive off.
These machines are somewhat
cheaper than the regular sDreaders.
the difference being from $40 to $50.

Hints From the Hired Man.

An Illinois mar taught me how to
raise and cure sorghum. He puts in
two bushels of seed 20 the acre with q
wheat drill. This gives q uniiorm
growth; the plant is small, and the
weld is about as heavy as from q
thinner seeding.

In WEAVING Pigs

Take them away in detachrnentS
beginning first with two or three OF
the plumpest. largest and strongest;
then the batch, leaving
the poor ones Of the litter to COM
plete the drying off.
The BOAR ought always to be kept
IN q pen by himself, preferably away
from the other hogs. He should have
q good-sized yard in which he can
exercise.
II allowed to run with the other
hogs he is likely to injure them badly.
Keep him thrifty. but not too fat,
or his get Will be puny.
Good pigs are not grown and fat

Good breeding and good feeding are
SO closely allied that they must go
together. One is useless without the

The barn has two driVeWays on the

While this barn is built on q farm OF
40 acres, there are many smaller
farms that could be much benefited by
q barn this size. The day has lOns

erS can get along without good barns

\ good depth of chest and abdomen
are especially important in a SOW.
If possible the SOW should be Sc
lected from q large litter. This is
apt to insure fecundity. Each SOW
should have at least twelve we'll de-
Veloped teats. thus providing proper
nourishment for large liters.
The SOW should show quality, but
not at the expense of constitution and

AT YEARS END LEARN
OATH Is NO MARRIAGE
CEREMONY.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 25.-Michael
Posan and Lizzie Macy, No 800
Valentine street, East st. Louis,
have been under the impression
since November ~, 1907, that they
were married, because they obtain
ed marriage license on that date
and had to hold up their right
hands and go through other mo-
lions which they supposed consti-
tuted a marriage ceremony. The
mistake was revealed to them
when they took steps to have their
marriage license framed in the be-
lief that it was marriage certifi-
cate.
Posan took the license to a store
at Tenth street and Piggott ave-
nue. with a picture framing depart
ment, where he was told he was
not married. The news was broken
to the woman he supposed was his
wife, Justice Brady was sent for
and the couple were promptly mar
ried.
Posan aad Miss Macy came from
Hungary on the same ship. II was
shortly after their arrival In East
St. Louis that they obtained the
marriage license and, as they sup
posed. got married. They have one
child.

Such was the result of the first
big league game, or rather, game
of big leaguers, that Spokane fans
have ever had the good fortune to
witness. The game was hardly up
to eastern standards, and, as num-
Der of fans remarked on their
homeward journey, I'VE saw bet
ter game last Sunday"
However, almost 1000 fans turn
ed out to the matinee, and every
one was pleased with the exhibit
ton and almost every one pleased
when Connie Mack's crew grabbed
the long end of the score.
Until the eighth round it was
anybody's game, with the Nationals
only one tally to the bad. In the
eighth spasm, with Baker and Da-
Wis reposing on their cushions from
couple of singles, Heinie Heit-
miller, the former University of
California star, lately graduated
into the Athletic camp, walloped
the pellet for a two-sacker to right
garden wall and two registrations
were chalked up. Heinie took third
when Mcbride pulled off Juggling
stunt that would put vaudeville
performer to shame, and crossed
the pan for the final tally on a
passed ball.
The Athletics sent the first man
around the circuit in the second
| frame. Davis tripled to deep cen
ter and trotted across the rubber
when Hall and Doyle allowed the
horsehide to roll past them. The
Nationals evened things up in the
third, when Konetchy sent Larry
Doyle around the sacks with a
| three-base swat to center. In the
fourth and fifth the Athletics add
J ed couple more to the scoreboard
total, the All-Stars failing to Guido
