Upper berths in Pullman sleepers
after Feb. will be sold at reduced
prices. The announcement that 20
per cent reduction would be made
on all upper berths over the Rock

The members OF our household

formerly Miss Irene Welch. a person
Of distinct individuality and ability.
We have laughed and cried over
the touching story of splendid
young wife, whom her husband al
ways calls "My Sally, and "My
Sally" might well have been the title
OF the fascinating story that has to
do with the gigantic lumber business
Of the great northwest.
Says a literary man in giving ad-
vice to writer's: make 'em laugh;
make 'em cry, as the desirable ef-
feet upon the reader; and Judging by
these requirements Mrs. Grissom has
made success.
One can but think that the con-
trast between saloonless Greeley,
where the author spent her girlhood,
and the wide open saloons of the
lumber regions of the Pacific coast,
with the wreck of splendid manhood
that must forever follow the use of
intoxicants and the shame and an
guish of families who are forced to
see beloved husbands and fathers
turned into unworthy and unlovely |
sots: this contrast, say. must have .
appealed to the author with all its
hideousness; for there are numbers
Of Greeley children who have never
seen a drunken person.

Az oRcHARD PRoRLEM

In Ohio there were exhibited at the
state fair some pears which were said
to have grown on a tree which came up
as a sprout from the stump of an old
tree long dead and gone. The vigorous,
upright tree which bore the fruit, was
five or six inches in diameter, and about
16 feet high. a
1t was difficult to determined whether
K sprang from above or below the point
at which the original union between bud
and stock had been effected, as the
stump of the original tree was almost
completely rottedf away.
Investigation by experts, however,
show that the bearing tree undoubtedly
represented the original variety as had
previous young tree, the stump OF
which is illustrated.
n-he former young tree evidently had
never borne, and 1t had been the victim
of a dull axe. The owner Of the fruit
believed it was a Seeding. 1t was almost
as truly an apple form or oblate as the
Japanese Golden russell pear. The small
er fruits had more of the pear shape.
Prof. @. B. Reeckett, of the govern
ment bureau of plant industry, finally
pronounced the variety fine type of the
Sheldon pear.

A great many farmers are like the
Timber Jack who, after working hard
all winter in the woods without seeing
his fellow workmen, came out in the
spring with his seasons wages intact
in his pocket.
After two weeks of drunkenness and
debauchery he woke up one morning
with Is cents in his pocket, the last
cent he had. Walking into a saloon he
threw the coin on the bar, ordered two
drinks and quickly disposed of them.
"All in?" said the barkeeper.
>"Yis, yis,' said Jack; mo matter,
aisy come, aisy CO." and he walked
out to join gang back in the woods.
Many farmers operate on Jacks plan
in regard to the use of their valuable
machinery. They work hard to get the
money to buy plows, reapers, and other
labor savers, and then deliberately
squander their savings by leaving their
machinery to be destroyed by the
weather.
On one farm the writer saw at least
$500 worth of machinery which had been
rendered practically useless within two
years by exposure to the weather. A
fine reaper which was only three and a
half years old was left standing after
the last wheat cutting, and is already
so rusted and warped and weather
beaten that it can never be used again.

wrnrEr. cARE OF HoRsEs

Why do so many farmers neglect
their teams during the winter months
b., 'neglec- 1 mean. why are so many
farm horses kept shut up in close
stables when not actively at work, fed
a heavy allowance of heating grain,
all the forage they can stuff and only
given exercise when actually at work
in the field or on the road?
IS In a natural state in any cline the
horse, like all animals, must neces-
sarily take exercise in seeking a means
of subsistence, therefore a horse which
is kept by man must have exercise III
the open air (whenever practicablel in
order that he may be able to give his
owner the full equivalent in good hon.
est work for the feed that he eats.
Farm teams are used to workins
hard all spring. summer and fall.
The dull season for the farmer is
when incIement weather prevails. Out
door work for the faithful farm team
will be uncertain.
Don't let them stand up in the stable
for days at a time, fed heavily on heat
ing food, breathing only the vitiateo
air of the stable.
Under the most favorable conditions
the average farmers stable does moi
furnish pure oxygen to horses or cat
tie that are kept up constantly, only
getting the much-needed daily exercise
at IRREGULAR intervals and in conse-
quence suffering from many ailments
incident to close confinement along
with heavy feeding.
The writer was we'll acquainted with
one of the most successful breeders OF
horses in this country. man who
owned at one time over 100 head OF
thoroughbreds, many of them horses
To- he
the Pacific for their successful per-
formances on the turf.
1t was his invariable custom to le'
all of his studs have exercise in the
open air whenever the weather condi-
tons permitted. Brood mares. stations
and colts were all turned out to run
about and get the benefit of fresh all
and exercise, sometimes even when the
weather seemed unpropitious.
Oftentimes the stations were taken
out and ridden from 10 to 10 miles q
day. They would get muddy and dirty
but retained their vigor in the stuo
until an advanced age.
The brood mares and colts of all ages
were kept in good condition by being
allowed to run around in paddock OF

The farmers team needs the same
recreation as does the race horse and
will not be ready for the heavy spring
work unless he has the proper care
and attention during the winter
months.

no doubt, days when the farmers
teams must stay in the barn.

COST OF GRowrNa Figs

A few years ago / was talking to q
farmer and business man who said
that he always thought that it cost
nearly 20 cents per pound to produce
pork.
! At that time he had not had much
experience with hogs and / could not
give him any definite figures IN the
subject, but 1t put me to investigating.
1 put 31-pound grade chester white
pig in pen, fed him and mixed GROUND
feed such as the farm produces. mixed
with water.
When the pig was five months ola
he was slaughtered and weighed los
pounds.
The pig had eaten 3S4 pounds of feed
at 81 per 100 pounds. If the pig is
valued at 50 at the time the feeding be-
gan it would make the pork cost $0.05s
per pound.
account of the feed required for two
brood sows with II pigs.
The feeding began about a week be-
fore the pigs were eight weeks old
At the end of the period found
THAI the pigs averaged 80 pounds eacn
and that 1 mad fed them the following
ration with the retail value that pre-
vailed here at the time:

If we divide s1439 by IL, the num-
Der of pigs, we find that the feed bin
cost practically S1.20 each for the pigs.
A fair estimate of the labor caring
for the sows and pigs and feed for the
sows during the CESSATION period woulo
likely add 81 per head to the cost of
the pigs, which would put the cost up
to $2.20 each.
