will not rub against the hanging

scalded l put the hook through hind
leg and complete the scalding. When
ready for hanging | hoist hog until
his crotch is up against the hanging
beam, then let the pulleys lock and
put the gambrel stick through heels.
Then l trip the lock and let hog down
on beam. The beam is smooth on
top, the outer end a little lower than
the inner, and hog is moved with
ease. When ready to weigh the hog
| let him down on the cleaning table,
hang the scales on the hook in pull
ley, fasten the scale hook in hogs
leg and pull out the gambrel stick.
When hog is weighed | swing him as

pole with chains. Main pole is set

Good Treatment Affects Disposition of
Farm Beasts and Increases Their
Market Value.
CRv ]. NJ. KELLY.)

Only a few centuries ago the ances-
.ors of most of us were barbarians
without local habitation, and living
largely by the products of the chase.
In the course of time a few OF the
wild animals about them we're domes-
ticated. At first probably for play
things for the children, and for com
%Danionship for adults, and finally for
heir value as food and clothing. Then
he pastoral life began.
When in his upward development
nan became wise enough to teach the
Ok and the horse to draw a load, when
le found that either of them could, as
ten men, and that by using one of
hem mar could increase his produc-
i've power ten-fold, and by using two
twenty-fold: and finally when he
learned how to teach four or six OF
them to work as a unit, then man had
increased his working efficiency forty
and siXty-fold. respectively. Then he
became able to produce more food
than himself and family required, and
he also had the means of transporting
the surplus to considerable distances.
Then commerce grew, and civilization
began.
The money value of the domestic
animals of the United States exceeds
SO, 900, 000, 900. What part of this value
comes through their domestication
cannot be accurately stated. but it is
a very large part, as n will admit
IL he considers of how little value
would be all the horses If at once they
were to return TO their original state
as wild horses; or If the cattle, all at
once could be changed to the condi-
ton, the nature, and the disposition
of the wild cattle of the original forest
and plain.
1t is probable that more than fifty
per cent. Of this value m through
the kind treatment their ancestors
have received, and which has changed
their disposition, so that this disposi-
ton is now inherited, and also is
strengthened by continued kind treat
ment.
All who handle farm animals know
that their value is affected by their
disposition. This disposition comes
from the state of the animals mind:
and the state of his mind toward us
depends upon how we are treating

kindness he is made trustful, fearless,
