narrowing or Pasture Pen.

IT would certainly be hard to surpass
the Roycroft plan for attractiveness
and general usefulness. The accom-
panying drawing indicates the general
plan Of the cot. The dimensions of
all cots are so near standard that it
will hardly necessitate the repetition
of these figures here. The main
points of difference in the "bunga-
low as compared with other pens
are: The center board on each side
are hinged so that they can be swung
open in hot weather; the ridge cap
is SO mounted that it can be raised
and lowered at will, thus further as
sisting in the ventilation of the pen
and the roof boards are made into
panels which may be raised Or lower
ed over window fran which is in
place just below them. This last ar
rangement permits of making the pen
into a dollhouse whenever desired.
The pen certainly has about as many
adjustments on it as one could wish
for. 1t is, moreover, one of the most
attractive pens built. It's main OBJ
lection is perhaps that the cost of
construction is somewhat higher than
is the case with more simple and
less convenient types.

EASY WAY TO HANDLE HOGS
Kansas Man Has Excellent Plan for
Transferring Animals From Ono
Pasture to Another.

Herewith Is drawing showing the
handy way by which Mr.. D. w. Evans
Of Fairview, Kan, handles his hogs
In transferring them from one lot to
another. The drawing Is intended to
show the barn, on one side Of which
Is arranged the stalls for the live
stock and on the other the grain bins
with a passageway between the two.
In the rear of this barn he has a num-
Der of swine pens and at the right of
the front Of it his hog house. AS
shown by the drawing, he has built a
chute in front of the barn which con-
meets with the hog house and which
is opened or closed by the barn door.
Only two posts are shown in the
chute, as this is enough to show the
idea. The curved line is intended to
show the swing of the door. When
the chute is in use for transfer
ring of the hogs from the hog house
to the feed lots in the rear Of the
main barn, or for transferring brood
sows from the field to the narrowing
pens, the barn gate is attached to the
posts at the end of the chute by a
chain, which is provided with a sim
pie attachment for fastening. If it is
desired to drive a team through the
barn, the, door is swung clear and the
chute is not in the way of any ordi-
nary vehicle. This is one of those lit
tie conveniences which add so much
to the efficiency and comfort Of farm
life and which may always be had by
simply taking thought and doing a
little work. By settling the first post
so that the gate will strike it, this
same idea may be applied in pasture
gates all over the farm, where it is

LIVESTOCK
G..N(DIES u

The bacon hog is growing in popu-
larity every day.
Hurdle the lambs on the rape patch
to push their growth.
Salt is one of the essentials Of sue
cess in handling sheep.
It is a serious loss to let colt run
down at weaving time.
One way to improve land rapidly is
to pasture hogs upon it.
The sheep bites close, and will eat
weeds down to the roots.
Constant care is what develops the
pigs into market toppers.
There is more profit in a grunting
pig than in squealing one.
Sheep return to the soil 80 per cent.
of fertility from the food eaten.
The mutton produced by the Che
viot is of a very superior quality.
Horses working hard in the harvest
fields need water several times day.
Those who have been raising sheep
in recent years have had no reason
to complain.
Goats will breed at six months of
age, but this early breeding destroys
vitality. Eighteen months is about
the right age for breeding.
One reason why the breed has not
made more Roadway is the fact that
breeders charge prices much too high
for the experimenting farmer.
The buck should be removed from
the does as soon as the breeding sea-
son is over and confined in field by
himself. He must be we'll fed at all
times.
Hogs are still high, and all other
farm animals are bringing such prices
that the farmer who can should make
all of til I'M do their best and grow
more Of hem.
The h4 h price of hogs should not
tempt any farmer to go into the hog
raising business beyond his means
While prices may continue high, the
crop during the next two Or three
years will be greatly increased by
thousands of plunging farmers wins
will rush into the business.

PERT YOUNG PRINCE
Small Son of Nicholas a PiCtur'
esque Youngster.
One of the Best Natured as Well as
Best Looking of the Royal Lit
tie Fellows of Europe-Seven
Years of Age.

Vienna.-Among the numerous lit
natured as well as the best looking
little fellows is the small Prince
Nicholas of Roumania, who is now
seven years of age. The yOungster is
the fourth in the charming group OF
children whose father is Grown
Prince Ferdinand of the picturesque
kingdom of Roumania and whose
mother was formerly Princess Marie,
daughter of the Duke of SaXe-Coburg
and Gotha. The youthful prince is
not a grandson of the present ruler,
King Carol, and his wife, known
world wide as Carmen Sylvia" They
have no children.
King Carol was born Hohenzol-
lern and his consort grand duchess
of Vienna. After the deposition of
Prince Couza-Alexander John l.,
which was a result of the military
| revolt of 1866, the Count of Flanders,
younger brother of Leopold III. of Bel
GUM, was unanimously chosen hos
podar, but the perilous honor was de-
clined with thanks Then the ROu-
manians selected Prince Carol of

made an excellent ruler. In 1878 the
Berlin congress acknowledged him
king of the country, which at that
time had just freed itself from the
Turkish yoke and had to begin, as it
were, from the beginning. He is ex-
ceedingly popular with his subjects, as
is his consort, known among her own
people as Elisaveta.
The constitution of Roumania set.
tied the succession on the kings old
est brother, Leopold, but he renowned
his rights in favor of his son, Will

his rights in favor of his brother
Ferdinand. The crown prince OF
Roumania, therefore, is King Carols
| nephew. The princess is a grand
daughter of Queen Victoria and is

her mother was a Russian grand

To Cure Kicking Horse.

law of humans. Every once in
awhile, however, there is born a
horse who thinks he is entitled to
his own opinion, and his favorite
way of asserting himself is in kick
ing the dashboard to bits. Two Mis-
souri, men have devised a harness
which is warranted to cure this habit.
Straps cross the horses back and
breast and at their functions are fas
tened the ends Of ropes which engage
the fetlocks of the animals hind legs
in running loops. The other end of
the ropes are fastened to staples in
the horses stall or to some other sta
tionary object in front of which he is
tied. The result is that when a horse
is trussed up in this manner, if he
tries to kick he find he cannot get his
hind feet beyond a certain point, and
after making number of in effectual
efforts he becomes discouraged. II
he is a particularly bad kicker he
can be goaded into making these at
tempts until his spirit is broken il
that respect.

Carol. is fifteen, she is quite a young
woman.
Princess Marie is very beautiful
and her five children resemble her.
She has fair hair, blue eyes and a
brilliant complexion. She is very
fond of appearing in the native ROu-
manian costume and does her best to
popularize it. Her children, too, Oft

of WalIachia and Moldavia, the prin-
cipalities from which the country was
formed In this way the princess
tries to promote native Industries,
the garments being made of hand-wo-
ven linen, embroidered with most del
icate work.
Prince Ferdinand objects to being
photographed. Not so his pretty
wife. On the contrary, she rather
likes to pose before the camera and
has no objection to having her chill
dren photographed. Quite often the
pictures show them in the national
costume The little lad whose like
ness is shown is CARRIED most pic

Weanjnu the Colt,

The spring colt should now be wean-
ed. The job will be an easy one if the
young animal has previously been
taught to eat grain. Keep it in a
stall by itself with hay in the man
ger and feed it oats with bran, moist
ened, two or three times each day. A
little corn may be given, but the oats
and bran will come nearer supplying
the lack of the mothers milk. Look
after the mare carefully for at least
two weeks after the colt is weaned,
milking her just enough at time to
relieve her. Milk her the first thing
in the. morning and the last thing at
night, with two or three milkings dur
ing the day for the first few days

Drop it," was the instant com
