The Quick Hog.

In these days the American pig
makes a speedy journey from farrow-
ing bed to scalding tub and the aim
of the judicious feeder is to add con-
stantly to the flesh acquired while
sucking, bringing the hog up to $50
to 450 pounds as early and on as mex
pensive feed as possible. The young
animal will naturally put on weight
more cheaply than an older one. and
gains after ten months cost considera-
bly, more per pound than those made
earlier A pig which is being fattened
should gain from one to two pounds
a day and weigh, alive. 25O to $50
pounds when nine to IL months old.

Care of Sheep Pastures.

Sheep are especially pastoral ami
mails and close troopers. A typical
pasture is clean pasture with a dense
growth of short grass, so closely cov-
ering the ground that they will not
pull up the roots.
An old pasture is dangerous to the
flock and too costly in this advanced
age of agriculture. It is more or less
infected with sleeps worst enemy, in.
ternal parasites.
A good dressing of air-slacked lime
on an old pasture two weeks previous
to the flock being turned out will give
good results for the labor.
Stagnant or pond water should be
guarded against, as it is liable to be
contaminated with larvae of the pesti-
lent parasites. The flock should be
supplied with pure water in troughs
pumped from deep wells.

Study Your Sheep.

The feed consumed by one COW will
usually support Ave sheep, and, with
good care, the returns from the sheep
are able to adpise concerning the best
breeds for different pointers on the
care of the animals. Experience, how
eper, is the best teacher in this re-
spect and before inpesting any large
amount in sheep, 1t would be wise to
obtain a few and study their habits
carefully Short legged animals are
best for general purposes.

Treating Injured Animal.

When an animal receives cut of
any kind the first thing to do is to
wash the wound out with warm wa
ter to remove dirt and germs that
might cause infection. Disinfect the
wound with a solution of carbolic acid
In 10 to 20 parts of water, and then
bind up or grease the wound to keep
out germs. An animal that is some.
what wild may have to be tied for the
first two or three times, but most any
animal will soon learn to know that
you are working for its good and will
like the treatment and become tame
thereafter, especially where the
wound must be dressed daily for sew
eral weeks.

Edward +. Croker, chief of New
York's tire fighters, whose recent con-
demnation of the methods of recruit
ing men for the department attracted
wide attention, is a nephew of Richard
Croker, former leader of Tammany
hall. Chief Croker claims that recruits
are selected for their mental rather
than physical equipment, with the re-
suit that the force is deteriorating.
This the commissioners deny and re-
tort that Croker subjects his men to
unnecessary danger; that his system of
fire fighting is antiquated.
AS to the last charge 1t may be
stated in refutation that the board of
fire underwriters are warm supporters
of Chief Croker. They have stood by
him on more than one occasion when
he has been attacked. They believe
that as fire fighter he is unsurpassed.
Furthermore, they say that Croker is
the inventor of the water curtain, a
device which consists in the creation
of a miniature Niagara between the
fire and threatened buildings by
throwing tremendous quantities of wa
ter into the air to fall again between
the blazing structure and its neigh
bors; of the fire helmet, which per-
mits firemen to enter the worst smoke
filled places with immunity, and of
the searchlight, which has been so
useful in many of the worst night
fires. One more contention they
raised-Chief Croker has never been
accused of asking man under him
to go where he would not go himself,
and they recall that in many instances
it was the chief himself who led
rescue parties into perfect volcanoes
of fire.
