The Farm Meat Rarrel.

1t is no better business than it used

the producer with all the expenses.

all their pork when they might Just
as well buy very little and cure the
pork themselves and have an abund
ance of pork that is better than the
packing house product. Good grades
of breakfast bacon, hams, shoulders
and all parts of the pig are selling at
enormous prices at present, and there
is no reason why the farmer should
pay these advanced prices. No mat
ter how high the price of corn and
the price of hogs, it's cheaper to fat

the families were close enough to-

keep long, but here there is not much

The PIC the Farmers Friend.

No animal on the farm is better
adapted to turning good feed quickly
into marketable meat than the hog,
and none can better repay, from a
market standpoint, a discriminating
system of feeding. This is particu-
larly true as to first costs, for the hog
is by nature planned to utilize the
least expensive feeds and will manu-
facture into toothsome pork much
that might otherwise be reckoned of
little value, if not waste. In any
phase of farm economy the hog is a
feature, and his proper feeding has
in innumerable instances been the
factor that kept farms profit on

Remedy For Cold.

The owner of most fiocks of fowls

colds, in spite of the best care. The
following remedy is simple one, and
one that you have at hand at all

given for the benefit of those who
aave not tried it. Take tablespoon
full of ginger and cayenne pepper,
make into pills about the size of a
small marble, using enough flour to
stiffen. When the cold is first no.

times a day. If not sufficient, repeat.

AMERICANIZING THE ALIENS.
Messages Which Are Distributed Among

1t is not every American boy who
appreciates the privilege of living in
a land to which in some years a mill
ion and quarter of foreign people
are journeying. The North American
Civic League for Immigrants has just
had printed four Messages, which
are to be distributed among the new
corners who are ignorant of American
customs and Go not understand the
national idea of democracy or the re-
sponsibilities of self-government.
The Messages" are translated into
Yiddish, Italian, German, Finnish,
Arabic, Polish and Lithuanian. but
their homely instruction and advice
are so much to the point that two
university graduates, on reading them
through, declared even they had
learned something new. and that
every American boy would do well to
do the same.
For example, after stating simply
the general conditions which the
alien may expect to meet, and his
privilege ito have as much liberty as
you can have without interfering
with Others and being disorderly,"
Message One goes on with such coun-
sci as, "You must be kind and polite
to every one with whom you have
business. BY SO doing and being
honest and Industrious you will make
many friends.
'You should learn something of
the laws which you must obey.
