Feeding Pigs
BY Uncle Hyrunl

In the present light of the investi-
cation the total quantity of water fed
seems to be of greater Importance than
the manner in which it is fed. The lat
ter consideration, however, has not thus
far been so thoroughly studied In gen.
eral all the water is given with the
feeds in the form of slop, but a linn
tied amount of recent data seems to
show that, in so far as the water is
considered in itself, it makes some
difference as to how 1t is fed as well
as the use of the right quantity. The
best results have been obtained by
feeding the bulk Of the water after the
rest of the feed has been eaten, using

PAINTING.

!. j. + + + :. j. i. !. i. 1. i. !. !. 1. I. /

Painting is the sudden loss of con-
seriousness due to an enfeebled action
of the heart A low rate Of respira-
ton and extreme pallow accompany
this condition. The clear head of the
outsider is all that is necessary to
restore the person to consciousness,
and my little talk today is to bring
before your minds some Of the nee
essary and effectual steps in the
treatment of one who has tainted.
The causes of fainting are many. A
general rundown and weak condition
is sometimes brought to the knowledge
by fainting spells. There is. of course,
fainting that results from intense
pain, from lack of fresh air, from an
insufficient amount of nourishing food,
or from shock to the mind.
In any one of these cases women are
on the fainting list more than men.
But the necessary facts once acquired
by you will be helpful in any emerg-
ency of this kind
I have seen ignorant persons doing
the very thing to a fainting woman
that initiates against the recovering
of consciousness. A person who has
tainted must not be kept in an up
right position.
Place the body in a fiat position,
and if possible, have the head a little
lower than the feet The heart will be
aided in it's work of pumping the blood
to the brain and head When this is
done, and the flushed, natural condi-
ton of the skin is evidence of the
restored circulation. the return of
consciousness soon follows.
AS soon as this very important step
is taken, loosen all tight clothing at
the neck and waist Corset strings
should be cut, if there be difficulty en-
counterfeit; collars and belts should be
detached The object is to secure an
easy condition of respiration. Fresh
air must be taken into the lungs in
great quantities. The removal of
tight clothing assists in this action.
That is one reason why fainting
person must not be surrounded by a
ring or hedge of the curious and
thoughtless onlookers.
A brisk rubbing of the hands will
bring the blood from the heart to the
surface ce the body. Remember that
your aim is to stimulate the heart,
which has decreased it's speed.
Every one knows the efficacy of the
cold water dash, that shocks the ex-
terror muscles, thereby bringing the
blood and it's warmth back to the
head. This can be given to the fore
head or the hands.
Smelling salts stimulate circulation.
Their refreshing odor is the last of
this quick treatment that usually Is
effective.

To those who are debarred from
the womanly privileges of a first
glimpse or a long, last look at the
openings, we pen a few paragraphs
on lace and insertion as they are used
this season. No greater array of
frivolous, lace trimmed garments and
hats has ever been offered to beauti
full woman.
Haul out all of the beauteous old
laces YOU possess, for never can there
be better opportunity for their re-
juvenation.
Cleanse old black lace in beer, SO
that it's original crispness may be re-
tanned.
Gold laces may be restored to their
former luster by dry process involv-
ing three parts powdered alum and
one part of powdered boric acid.
If, after shaking, the lace is still tar
nished, it may again be put away in
this powder for "a hours.
Wash white and cream laces in
soapy water in which a pinch of bor-
as has been dissolved. The laces
should first be sewn in a cheese 9th
bag. After rinsing out every vestige
of soap and borax, they should be
dipped in a rinse water diluted with
milk to restore the natural oil to the
thread, which will, without it, be rend-
cred brittle.
So much for the restoration of your
laces. The darning by hand is story
in itself; but just here comes in the
admonition; use thread, as it will
show less than silk, and insist upon
cream thread if the lace is not dead
white.
An old lace dress is a Joy at the
present moment. 1t may serve as the
whole unders ip or lower garment,
over which is draped a dress of chiffon
of a harmonious or contrasting shade.
The covering material is sheer or
heavier, according to the condition of
your lace. Chiffon cloth of a deep

not at this time employed by the Amer
lean Sugar Refining company and had
had nothing to do with the present
criminal prosecutions of the sugar
trust officials.
The resolution finally was adopted
by the house in the form originally
introduced by Mr. Fitzgerald, except
that the facts" were called for. eff
not incompatible with the pub ic SER
vice.
Parsons Explains
Just before the house adjourned Mr..
Parsons arose to make an explanation
of his own connection with the sug-
ar trust. He did so, he said, because
the public might infer from the re-
marks of Mr.. Rainey that he had
used his position as chairman of the
republican county committee of New
York state to aid the American Sugar
Refining company or to prevent prose-
cution of any member of his own
family.
Mr. Parsons entered a sweeping de-
NAL of charges Of this nature. He also
denied the American Sugar Refining
company or any of it's officials had ever
aided him in politics, except, he add
ed, "such aid as may have come from
my father"
Replying to questions he said that
since his entrance into politics he
had never heard of the American Sug-
ar Refining company making campaign
contributions in New York Incident
ally he said that his father had al
ways cal ed himself democrat and
he was sure the members of the Have
meyer family always considered Them
selves democrats.

for a pig to become accustomed TO
changes so that he will eat, digest and
assimalate the new ration as well as
the old one, hence the more gradual
Iy such changes are made the better
will be the results produced.
The experiments of the Illinois
station prior to 909 were conducted in
small dry lots (4x5 rods.) Those of
1909 and thereafter were started in
larger lots the object of which was to
supply the required amount of exer-
else. Later in the experiment the pigs
were moved to the old lots to make
room for younger pigs IN the new
lots These (new) lots were built where
there was an abundance of bluegrass
as well as some rye during the early
part of the season. The pigs of the
first experiment in these new lots were
fed in accordance with the standard
evolved from data collected in the pre-
vious experiments where they fed in
the dry lot The results from this
feeding on pasture indicate that pigs
can utilize to better advantage the
same quantities of nutrients in addi-
ton to the grass than were fed In the
dry lot experiments. 1t is believed that
in grazing the pigs get the needed ex-
ercise which stimulates the functions
of respiration, digestion and metapo-
lism, thus enabling them to utilize
larger quantities of feed to better adj
vantage That is they will make larger
quantities of feed grain and pastures
combined, when they have exercise
than when they have no exercise.
The way in which the ration is fed
to the pigs is matter of considerable
Importance. If the protein is to be fed
in the form of soy beans or peas, these
may be harvested and stored away to-
gether with the vine. At feeding time
sufficient may be weighed out to fur
nish the proper amount Of protein and
this distributed over a large feeding
floor or on pasture where the pigs can
have free access to it, While they are
doing the hauling and grinding, all will
have an opportunity to get their pro-
portion. This also presupposes that
pigs Of equal size and age are being
fed together, and that they will eat
with approximately the same rapidity.
If the protein is thus distributed the
corn may be fed in the form of ear
corn or shelled corn. If then the right
quantity of water is fed fairly good re-
suits will be possible. During the WIN
ter season, however, when pigs will
not drink enough by such practice 1t
is necessary to mix at least a small
quantity of water to make it palatable.
This shsuld then be fed to them in thu
trough.
If alfalfa is fed in the form of a
metl it might be mixed with the bal
ance of the feeds in the slop. But this
is an expensive form in which to feed
alfalfa. In the summer time pigs may
be allowed to eat it from the pasture.
In winter the alfalfa may be chopped
as fine as possible with an ordinary
fodder cutter and then mixed with a
little meal and sufficient hot water or
steam to thoroughly wet it, This VIII
be eaten very readily if fed while the
pigs are hungry. However, it takes
training to accustome pig to eat any
may be mixed into the slop.
