SWELLING THE HOTEL BILL
Hotel Keepers Method of Taxing
Traveller Had at Least the
Method of Novelty.

One of the things which help swell
the travellers expenses, both in this
country and abroad, is the extra. 1t
may or may not be charged in the bill,
but it is sure to be paid for. Proba-
bly, even the most generous traveller,
however, will have some sympathy for
the gentleman in the following story
who was made to pay literally for a
certain annoying privilege.
During his stay at the hotel the
weather had been very hot.
Charles said the landlord to the
clerk who was making out the bill to
be presented to the departing guest,
have you noticed that the gentleman
in number seven has consulted the
thermometer on the piazza at least ten
times every morning during his stay
here?"
Charles replied that he had.
We'll" said the landlord, charge
him the price of one dinner day for
the use of the thermometer. YOUTHS

PORTABLE HOUSE IS dsEFuI.
VIII Prove of Great Advantage for
narrowing Sow, Also Temporary
Shelter for Fowl.

For many jobs in the fall a port,
able house to use as a shelter will
be of great advantage. The same idea
may be applied to a pen for use in
event of a sow narrowing in the field.
or for portable house for chickens
or turkeys to be, moved about the
farm; in fact, the same building may
be applied to all three purposes with
success, says Orange Judd Farmer.
Build the floor the size you wish
and make as strong as possible.
Slightly back from the center an axle
is placed, which can be made of a
AKA scantling and fitted with two old
wheels for moving the house. A short
tongue is placed on one end, which,
is fastened behind a wagon when
moving the building. Under the
tongue block is placed when it is
desired to use the building upon,
wheels, as in husking corn in the.
field in cold weather.
The building is erected above the
floor, and if for corn hnol-iog alone

the walls may be canvas, painted to
keep out the rain, with small bench
built at one end for the stalks to lie
upon, with hooks for strings. This
makes it as comfortable a working
place as can be desired, and with
the advantage that it can be moved
from one end of the field to the other
as needed.
Where built for threefold purpose
the walls should be made OF light
boards, or, at least, the lower part of
walls, and the roof, of light lumber
or canvas. When used as a pen for
hogs or fowls it is moved to the
proper place and the wheels removed,
thus ro~ting the building on the axle;
and by replacing wheels it can again
be moved to a new location, as de-.
sired.

KNELL OF CHOLERA sC0URGE
Government Experts of Agricultural
Department Announce Discovery
of Vital Interest.

Extraordinary interest was aroused
in Chicago the other day, especially
at the stock yards, by the receipt of
news from Washington that cholera,
the great scourge in the raising OF
hogs, has, in the opinion of experts
of the agricultural department, been
conquered.
According to the reports new
serum. with which the department has
been experimenting, has proved sue
cess at the Union Stock yards at
South Omaha, Neb.
The washington reports state:
'HThe Stock Yards company pur-
chased thirty pigs weighing from for
ty to sixty pounds each from a farm
which had been free from hog cholera
for several years. These pigs were
brought to the stock yards and four
of them were inoculated with hog
cholera. These inoculated hogs were
Dlaced in a pen by themselves and
within five days they had become
sick. at which time eighteen OF the
remaining pigs were each given a
dose of the serum, while the other
eight pigs were not treated In any
way. The eighteen serum-treated pigs
and the eight untreated pigs were
then placed in the same pen with the
four pigs which had been made SICK
by incubation.
''The four pigs which were first
given hog cholera all died and the
eight untreated pigs all contracted
the disease from them. The eighteen
nigs which were given serum and
which were confined in the same pen
with the four original sick pigs and
with the sick untreated pigs remained
nerfectly we'll and were finally turned
over TO the officials of the stock yards
oonnanv upon the completion OF the
experiment"
The department of agriculture does
not distribute this serum to farmers,
hut is endeavoring to bring the value
of this method to the attention OF the
stock-raising interests in order that
itbev may arrange to secure state
ifnDds for the manufacture and dis
,,,;h,,tion of the serum.

SSSNOTES IN

Hogs often get crooked legs for lack
of exercise.
Stockmen say this is good time to
buy up calves.
Packers find it hard work to put
hog prices down.
Shropshires and Hampshires are
best all purpose sheep.
Pure air, pure water, clean food and
a clean place to sleep make hogs prof
liable.
Some cattle breeders make the mis-
take of crossing breeds for the pur-
pose of combining the excellencies of
each breed.
If one has plenty of pasture, and
can raise clover hay, there is nothing
that will pay so well for as little labor
as a flock of good sheep.
When small bit of pork costs a
DAVIS wages, and even ham bone is
precious, there need be no fear OF
overstocking the hog market.
There is no kind of animal breed
ing that will pay better than the
breeding of horses, but horses that
win sell. not dunghills or insists.
One of the highest uses of rye pas
ture probably is for grazing ewes with
lambs in the early spring, or in gra-
zing weaned lambs in the early fall.
Get a collar that will fit the horse
and fix the names SO they viii at the
collar. DO not get the bride too
tight, nor have any place which will
rub and make sore.
In billy going. an improved brake
would add years to the service OF
many horses that are crippled and
worn out before their time by toe
