hostility to the saloon and it's horroble effects.

different lines from Bill, and the
next morning he simply doubled the
load that he usually put on the
wagon. Still. II Old Bill didn't trot
with that load. he found the trip
easier than when he had had to
wade through the mudhole and climb
the hill. so that he was little to the
good. after all.
Farmer Jones didn't seem to ap-
preciate the good road this morning,
however. The reason he didn't was
because he was trying to figure out
how much the mudhole and the hill
had cost him in the long years they
had compelled him to come to town
with half load. He gave up the
problem at last, because the sum he
got was so big he wouldn't admit 1t
could be true. But as he drove into
the barn lot he said to himself:
well, tomorrow I'll Ak up the lane
out to the big road. and see the fell
lers about workin' out the road
across to the church"

INDIVIDUAL HOUSES FOR BROOD
SOWS.

In our climate there Is no need OF
providing elaborate houses for the
hogs: indeed they are better of not
tightly housed. They should. how
ever. have a dry place in which to
sleep and shelter, open at all times.
TO which they can go in bad weather.
This is especially true OF the brood
sow. both before and after farrow-
Ing. II the young pigs have dry
place assured when they wish 1t. and
are free to stay under shelter or go
outdoors as they wish. all housing
requirements are met.
For most farmers individual hog
houses will be more satisfactory than
more elaborate structures designed
