way), are about 4 feet long. The rear
posts, If used, should slant. as shown
In tho cut, to allow the mixer little
more room. In some stables these
rear posts have been done away with
entirely. the gates simply being
chained or roped together. AS usual
ly built, the front rack or panel is
made OF 2x4 framework, with 7-16
inch iron rods; and this framework
is fastened solidly to the manger;- but
the manger and framework are not
attached to the sides Of the stall, but
left loose, SO as to be adjusted to the
length OF the COW. In some cases,
however. the rack is hinged at tho
top and the bottom allowed to swing
IN the manger, so that 1t may be
swung toward the front several
inches. This allows the COW a little
more freedom In getting up and lying
down. Wooden stats may be subsi-
tuted for the iron rods, or in some
cases section of iron wire fencing
is used In place of the rods. The rope
across the rear of the stall Is usually
stapled ct one side and hooked with
an ordinary harness-strap at the
other.

The silo is the sign of prosperity.
Cholera usually affects the younger
pigs and hogs first
A mud hole is not absolutely neces-
sary in a hog pen
Feeding for fat is business, but
some men go about 1t as though 1t
was play.
Frozen alfalfa may kill hog as
we'll as COW or horse. 1t is usually
tndigestible.
Corn lays fat on hog, but the best
md sweetest meat is made by va
fiety of feeds.
II the hogs are dying and the cause
cannot be found, have an expert hold

At present prices, It will pay well
to have as many houses as there are
sizes of pigs in the herd.
II ever the rams needed little ex-
ira attention by way of nourishing
food and extra room, It is now.
A thorough wetting in cold rain
will take OF a bunch of sheep the gain
of weeks feeding. That's waste.
The man who allows his cattle to
pick their corn out OF the mud GER
tainly has great deal of faith In ma
ture's aid to a lazy farmer.
A heater to supply water for 80
head Of cattle can be put in for less
than $40, and it will pay for itself In
n week of very cold weather.
4 II you allow the young stock to
bump around among the older and
stronger members of your herds you
may expect the little fellows to get

A hog needs twice the air space in
proportion to his size than does the
horse or the COW. yet he cannot stand
one-half Of the exposure to the wind
and weather.
Try building tight board fence on
tho north side of the feed lot and
make OF 1t one side of the feeding
rack. This gives shelter and feed at
the same time.
It's poor business to let fattening
steers MI themselves up on ice water.
It will take great deal Of feed to get

New Years Greeting.

We wish our many friends a Happy
New Year.
With close times and high taxes we
can say honestly that December, 1911
has been our best month in the stores
history and a conclusion we must
draw is that people appreciate a cash
store that can show you true economy
A management that believes in living
up to its name and being one of a
chain of eight stores our buying power
is second to none and our prices must
be right.
We practice store economy as we
fully realize that it falls on the Gus
toner to pay the selling expense.
Wishing you prosperous New
Year,

Magic, like everything else, has pro-
crossed with such rapid strides during
the past few years that not everybody
has been able to keep pace with it.
There are many people. for instance,
who are still referring with awe to the
articles they have read about the prac.
tice OF the Black Art in the East, and
are placing the performances of the
Indian fakirs above everything else Of
the kind in the world. This is the
sheerest nonsense. The majority Of
these stories anent the marvellous
tricks of the dark-skinned jugglers Of
India originated in the imagination OF
the writers, as was proven long ago.
Professor Edward Reno is as far SUI
perior to these Eastern fakirs as civil
lied man is superior to the savage.
Keno has the usual light parapher-
malta, but performs his tricks while in
ordinary evening dress, and so adroit-
ly as to escape detection in every case.
In this respect he is a wonder. He
does things that seem absolutely i'm
possible of execution without the aid
OF supernatural agency. One of his
performances that never fails to amaze
his audiences is known as the "dove
trick" He burns a piece of common
paper, and dove rises phoenix-like
from the ashes. He apparently tears
the dove in two, only to find that he
has two doves in his hands. He throws
a glass of water into the air, and it
changes into dove and flies away.
An evenings program made up OF
such startling illusions is truly bewil-
dering, and when his audience dis
perses it is with the impression that
they have seen a real wizard.
Not the least enjoyable feature OF
Reno's performance is the running fire
OF comment with which he enlivens
everything he does. These fragmen-
tary remarks are full of fun and wit,
with fash after fash of good-tempered
satire aimed at himself or his work.

engaging stage presence, with u keen
