more or less by chance on that section
of the aeroplane where the wings and
the body were joined together Two
wings on the starboard side OF the
aeroplane were blown away, and the
stricken craft turned turtle and fell
like a stone through space.
Strong alone held his hand. He
held his hand deliberately for the set
purpose OF discovering the effect OF
the shellfire on the enemy.
And he learned 1t only just in time.
Already the aeroplane beneath him
was turning for downward flight,
when. to hairs breadth, he maneuv-

Still. his thoughts were of Diana,
and as he followed the now rapidly
sinking aeroplane, he picked up the
wireless and licked a query to the
palace.
The answering sparks in the instru-

hands, told him that Diana was once
again waiting on the balcony.
So Strong merely licked I'VE have

faster and faster rate. So great, in
deed, was the speed at watch they
were descending that he was for a few
moments fearful lest the aeroplane
bearing the kaiser should ne dashed To-
pieces on the ground below.
But. as the earth rushed up to them,
Strong saw the aeroplane tilt once
again, and for a second he wondered
whether. stricken though he was, the
kaiser was Of mind to attempt an
other ascent, and continue the strug.

But this thought had no sooner

There's no use denying IL, our grand
fathers and grandmothers were a
cheerful bunch OF people.
A contributor TO the Atlantic Month
ly has found in a popular periodical
OF 20 years ago a cheerful argument
and comforting conclusions under the
title The Advantages Of Consump-
ton
The writer sums up his case In the
following four statements, each or
which he sustains by careful elabora-
ton and explanation:
"Firsr-Consumptio gives time for
reflection and thought.
''Second--Consumption is seldom ac-
companied with pain.
"Third-Consumption seldom de-
thrones the reason"
Fourth-Consumpt ends in
death
Having proven his case and each
OF the four points in the abstract. the
writer takes the concrete example or
young girl who was so fortunate as
to contract this desirable disease.
We are to infer that this young PER
son was of somewhat sunny disposi-
ton insofar that she loved the world
and life and could bring her mind but

The Truth, No Matter
Whom It Helps or Hurts.

The strike of the 5000 employees
of the Pressed Steel Car company in
Pittsburg has resolved itself into a
waiting game on the part of both
the strikers and the car company
officials.
The strikers have wisely declared
that they will be guilty of no more
outbreaks such as those that have
been told about in The Times.

have a harmful effect upon the di-
gestive system of the young pigs. The
feeding OF cows milk to the sow that
is nursing a litter should be done
very carefully. IL at all. us 1t is very
likely to start scours. The best way
TO utilize the milk is to give 1t to the
young pigs and thus teach them to
drink from the trough as soon as pos
sibe In doing this the amount should
be very small at first so that there
will be none left in the trough to sour
before the next feeding time.
Nearly every hog breeder that you
meet will have a sure cure for scours
but we have yet to learn of a cure
that is effective in every case. The
best method is to watch the young
pigs carefully and when they show
any evidence of having contracted this

Hoo Notes.

Hogs like salt just as we'll In the
never be without access to it.
Now is a good time to spend a lit
tie money for oil meal Its use, just
before narrowing time is more effect
tive than any amount of continental
foods and not nearly so costly.
A good litter of pigs is seldom far
rowed by a SOW who spends most of
her time sleeping Exercise for the
brood SOW is most necessary and if
she is sluggish in disposition she
should be encouraged to move about.
Study carefully the merits of the
different breeds, select what is in your
judgment the best one and then stick
to it. No hog raiser ever attained sue
cess by changing breeds every year or
so, nor by buying a boar Of a different
breed every fall.
Sunlight and healthy pigs will never
be found far apart. Plenty of sun
light is essential to the proper growth
of every young thing about the farm
and this is especially true among the
swine. Dark. damp days in the early
spring are the abomination of the hog
raiser. The pens should be so ar
ranged that every possible bit of sun
light can be utilized when a bright day
comes along.
Damp bedding will almost surely
prove fatal to the youngsters. Cold
and wet days will be withstood fairly
